OHMYGOSSIP — John Lewis has released its latest Christmas advert – about an alien crash landing on earth.
The two-minute commercial, called The Unexpected Guest, features teenage lad Nathan who spots Skye crash landing, and he begins to educate the alien all about the traditions of Christmas.
He teaches Skye what a Christmas tree is, how to eat mince pies, throw snowballs, and the joys of watching a festive film.
However, Skye manages to fix her spaceship and she is about to head off back into the galaxy when Nathan her gives her his Christmas jumper.
She responds by planting a kiss on his cheek, before heading into her spaceship and flying off.
A message at the end of the ad reads: “For a Christmas as magical as your first.”
As Nathan and Skye bond, 20-year-old singer/songwriter Lola Young – who is from south London – belts out a version of Philip Oakey and Giorgio Moroder’s ‘Together in Electric Dreams’.
The advert is to make its TV debut tonight (04.11.21) at 8.15pm during ITV’s ‘The Pride of Britain Awards’.
Claire Pointon, director of customer at John Lewis, said: “There is nothing more magical than discovering the joy of Christmas for the first time and enjoying your favourite festive moments with loved ones.
“After the last 18 months, we wanted our advert to really celebrate this as we look forward to a brighter future.”
Last year, Celeste became the first musician to write and perform an original song for the John Lewis Christmas advert.
She performed her own tune, ‘A Little Love’ – which she penned over Zoom – for the ad, which was called ‘Give a Little Love’.
