Oh yeah John Lewis get a lizard to shoot fire at stuff and it's a cute Christmas advert, we attached a small flame thrower to an iguana at the Christmas party and we 'ruined the vibe' and 'have to pay for the damages'

Voters trudge through streets dodging tired canvassers & endless vox pops. Sadness in all their eyes.
Then on TV a newsreader announces an asteroid is heading our way. Shoppers gather & watch. For the first time in years they crack a smile. The John Lewis logo appears on screen.

JOHN LEWIS CHRISTMAS ADVERT BRAINSTORM
"How about Jolly Jaws? A lovable man eating shark who just can't help eating people?"
"Or Ditsy Dracula? The cute servant of darkness with a taste for blood?"
"Hmm let's just go with the dragon who loves arson." #ExciteableEdgar

Frankly I am disappointed that John Lewis didn't go with my pitch, where a piano version of Nazi Punks Fuck Off plays whilst a bunch of victorian orphans chase Nigel Farage into a ravine.
