As a firm believer that the most wonderful time of the year officially kicks off November 1st (it’s about the season, not the day, you grinches!), there is nothing better than the flood of cheer that comes to our televisions welcoming in the holidays.

Below we have pulled together our top picks for the 2019 season. They’re the perfect reminder of what this time of year is all about. Enjoy, and happy holidays!

Over the years, holiday adverts from John Lewis & Partners have become much anticipated and marks the official start of the holiday season in the UK. This year was no different, charming everyone with a story of acceptance.

Nothing could muster up more nostalgia than a holiday reunion with E.T.
And last but not least, we’ll absolutely raise our glasses to the swift and well executed response Aviation Gin had to the Peloton ad gone wrong.
