How do you Christmas?

This time of the year tends to bring out the best of people. It is seen as a time of giving, hope, friendship, family and reflection.

It is also the time that we are treated to some of the best advertising of the year!

“The excitement, buzz and creativity around Christmas adverts shows that this ‘ads as entertainment’ moment is quickly becoming a great British cultural export, much like America’s Superbowl,” David Black, managing director of branding at Google UK, said in a statement: “Not only are users around the world turning to YouTube to watch and engage with the ads, but more and more brands are tapping into this opportunity to share emotional stories.”

We’ve handpicked our favourite 3 ads from the 10 most popular youtube Christmas ads of 2016 for your enjoyment.
