- 150 years ago Sainsbury’s opened their first store and Christmas changed forever. Coincidence? Almost certainly… ho ho ho.
Presenting Sainsbury’s Christmas advert 2019.
Are we just going to ignore the fact this guy bit into a whole orange without peeling it
Ridz I thought it was a tomato sksks
@@radiocure5459 i thought it was an oninon
Was obviously a tomato.
I thought it was a banana
I thought it was a strawberry
Absolutely no one:
Sainsbury’s: we created Santa
Not
Aisling Monaghan you like 6?😂
Coca Cola: ArE yOu SuRe AbOuT tHaT
Coca Cola wants a word
Actually coka cola reinvented santa. That's the only reason why his outfit is red not even joking.
thus the battle of the 2019 christmas adds begin
It started when the all mighty Kevin The Carrot threw his hat into the ring and will end when John Lewis comes busting in like Captain Marvel destroying Thanos’s ship
Agree
@Powerful Panda is there something you need to tell us?
*begins
@Powerful Panda ppu
2:12 wow I didn't realise London was in the mountains!
Little boy was banished to Scotland as it wasn't an official holiday till 1958, bah humbug.
And there's a London Eye as well...
... in Victorian times?
@@jp9707 and the shard apparently
An alternate universe?
@@jp9707 its obviously to represent the fact its 150 years and he is looking at the bright distant future of london and its franchise
Seeing as it's always shown in the distance.
Those market stalls have more stock than my local Sainsburys.
Lol
same
Howling
Oranges, the cure to poverty
Tomatoes!
Well scurvy at least.
@@ek8710 Errr we don't put tomatoes in Xmas stockings..they are tangerines.
@@ek8710 Tangerines
Now that we solved the crisis of poverty with oranges, we now have to find a way to solve our crisis with oranges...!
We'll have to hunker down and wait for further instructions from Sainsbury's in 2020.
I don't think they'll be a better advert than the 2014 Christmas advert not only did Sainsbury's give light to the hold fire for that day but the tear jerking scenes of both sides coming out the trenches and exchanging gifts just truly shows even during our darkest hours special celebrations can bring us together! 💂♂️💂♀️💂🍫🧡
Trying to imagine the board room where they pitch "it's the 1800s and Mrs Sainbury saves a young Santa Claus from starvation as a wrongly accused of robbery child worker who has been banished into exile in snowcapped mountains and together they defeat Victorian child labour"
I imagine they all busted out the cigars Don Draper style when that one got approved
James McGlynn it’s literally just been on tv, inside the supermarket, and the lady who makes the decision thought it was an emotional idea lol. Kids being scared emotional isn’t what I think she meant 😂
@@korclo Should've gone with the Darth Vader idea.
Abbas I actually think that sounded like a really good idea and sounded fun lol
Yeah just watched the “inside the supermarket” show.. that pitch was spot on.. the real Christmas miracle is Matt Lucas managing to regrow his hair to launch the advert to the journalists. Lol
0:40 “Give him a fair trial”
Everybody looks at him.
“Sorry, I mean BANISH HIM FOREVER!” 😂
Is that david bradley
"Zero emissions"on the side of her cart is a brilliant touch...
Are they implying they'll be lowering their prices this Christmas so the poor can sample their satsumas?
Sarah Taylor nah man that's too kind
@@josephhughes2429 I thought the 'act of kindness' would be too much to hope for.
@@josephhughes2429 --
Send a kid to take an orange from a Sainsbury's store, see how well this story plays out in real life...
No love. If however you want to buy some of their wares instore and then place them in one of those 'donation points' at the checkout, they will see to it that the undeserving poor receive it. They are even so kind as to label their shelves with Sainbury's own recommendations, as to what would be an appropriate item to buy for such an altruistic act. Aww how thoughtful.
Nothing tops the 2014 WW1 advert sorry.
The 2016 advert
Came here just to agree with this. Best Christmas advert ever made.
I think you'll find Um Bongo just takes the edge there.
Pete Long I 100% agree!!!!
That's actually based off actual happenings, why anyone who disgraces the fallen heroes is met with the vilest venom from me, a pointless stupid war costing millions of lives, we stand on the ashes of those heroes, it's why at Christmas i often scurry off, and have a shot to those fallen, as long as we remember their sacrifices they will never die
All of this tear jerking just to sell us a little ham and turkey.
Do something special this Christmas
Also there's a worse and real thing of this, ww1, played football together the allies and axis did, made friends, had laughs, only to end up killing eachother a day later, friends killing friends, ww1 really was a stupid war, but here we are, standing on the ashes of heroes and victims of a pointless, stupid, war
Satsumas actually
@@TheAnticarnist it isn't satsuma. It is mandarin

Don't forget the potatoes and sprouts.
So basically in grown-up speak: he died of cold and hunger, and it was all just a fantasy in his head as he lay dying alone in the snow.
Ummm.. pretty sure that wasnt what they were going for but okeyyy
Noooo!!! Happy ending !!😂😂😂
U okay luv¿ definitely isn't that
NO.
SCROOGE.
Shut up already!
“I caught him, orange handed!” 😂😂
Orange you loving these puns? Nick
If Sainsbury’s doesn’t give me a free sack of oranges for Christmas imma sue them for false advertising
I will give you it mate
@Powerful PandaI will give him my hundred oranges
(I only keep them because no comment)
Hahaha!!!
And then they arrest a poor child bruh
Next time I see a homeless person I will give them 1 orange. Thank you Sainsbury’s
Powerful Panda only if they don’t like the oranges
Go to India then Dilovan Ser, as there are many more homeless people living there needing oranges.
I gave once an apple to a homeless man and he cried of joy. Never underestimate the power of a good gesture.
@Dave David Wow . you so funny! How old are you?

"Like all great stories, this one starts at the beginning."
*George Lucas has left the chat*
Technically it does
@@Emeraldkyber who tf said it doesn't
Anyone else here from the Salisbury’s documentary on BBC1
Yes - just watched. Is odd seeing, after watching the making. Was a bit surprised at how 'un-marketing' and not corporate the team were. Nice genuine people - interesting.
It’s a shame they didn’t mention the fact that while they spend god knows what on a stupid Christmas advert, that the staff, have had their bonuses taken away and they don’t get paid for their breaks, what’s next take away their staff discount, shame on you Sainsbury’s
Yeah
Yeah
I thought it may have ended with the CEO dressed as fagan singing "we're in the money"
He already did that last year 😂 😉
I'M A MAN
It should be him in his boardroom sitting on a massive pile of oranges and cackling.
Heh. Nice one 👍
Sainsburys wont be getting my money.
Love the Dickensian tone and feel of the ad, while the theme is gut wrenching knowing how children suffered and had it rough at the time. Still the message at its heart is touching.
I love this advert,it's bring home the message off giving , caring and not being on your own , 😍
So maybe not the UK then.
Never knew Victorian Britain was so diverse!
Go and do some reading.
@@Africa1000 funny how all the literature on it is revisionist? As if the evidence hid itself for over a hundred years waiting for a Marxist professor to uncover it.
@T Watt It's so predictable. "You can never engage a moronic racist in rational debate"... discuss.... Cue your response. Case closed!
Pocko213 It absolutely was.
Height of our global empire! And we had people from all over the world in London, the biggest city in the world at the time!
So of course it was diverse, you plonker!!!
@@RedPandaGames. No it wasn't. England was 98% white indigenous English people right up to 1948. It's silly to have an advert set in Victorian England and have black people in it.
1:20 zero emissions 😂😂
Oh yes wouldn't be Christmas without good dose of brainwash
@@JohnSmith-lb6ww urrrr what?
@@JohnSmith-lb6ww oooh yes government bad
try run a country by yourself
That bag of satsumas is the staffs Christmas bonus this year oh hold on no wait there is no bonus just minimum wage
£9.20 per hour isnt minimum wage
@@starsstripes2393 still not enough though
justine mathers £9.20 is less than the minimum wage in London
@@FLIPMODE630 £7.50 is the minimum wage
@@FLIPMODE630 well thats wrong
This seems a bit half-hearted as an origin story. It should be Mrs Sainsbury riding into Bethlehem on a donkey. Then we see the wisemen and shepherds drawing near bearing wine and mince pies, Mary Sainsbury is sweating and straining but then instead of giving birth to our lord and saviour the son of god, she was just lifting a roast turkey out of the oven, and everyone sits down to a lovely Christmas dinner in the stable.
That seems like the best way for a supermarket to really lay claim to Christmas. I've got a great idea for the Easter advert too.
That was WAY better than the actual ad. 👌
That sounds amazing but it may get a few complaints. 😂
Great idea. I hope you get credited in next year's ad
You'll have to make sure and tell us your ideas Bryn! Fraser
From the Sainsbury’s Wikipedia page:
In April 2018, Coupe (CEO of Sainsbury’s) engaged in an interview in relation to a forthcoming merger between Sainsbury's and Walmart owned UK subsidiary ASDA. After the first interview occurred, during the transition to the next, his microphone remained switched on and he began singing 'We're in the Money'.[8] This angered many who believed the merger would create a monopoly in the supermarket industry. It also caused controversy due to the management restructures within Sainsbury's stores at the time with many managers and supervisors facing redundancy. It was also reported that Coupe would make over six hundred thousand pounds from the merger thus reinforcing the beliefs of many that CEO pay is unfairly high in contrast to large numbers of workers below them that earn significantly lower wages.
In 2019, he was criticised for cutting a £10 bonus that was provided to staff in lieu of a Christmas party[11] in a year where he took home £3.9 million total compensation.
In a 2006 report the British anti-poverty charity War on Want criticised the conditions faced by Kenyan workers supplying Sainsbury's with cut flowers.[226]
In 2007 Sainsburys was fined for its involvement in a dairy price-fixing cartel along with other large retailers and processors.[221][222]
Big bosses screws workforce nothing new here

After reading the above comment forward to 2:24...And that is a totally true story 😁
Jay Blake I think the poor kid has issues with his parents. Low self esteem and a desire to be heard.
Jay Blake you have to admire his persistence

Sainsburys, putting small business out in the cold for 150 years... Yay!
Sainsburys started as a small business you idiot
Yooo this exactly - if they actually gave back to small businesses with their message of 'Christmas is for sharing' they'd win the adwars 1000% 😂👏
If Bill Gates wanted to diversify Microsoft into oil mining back in the day, do you think J D Rockerfeller would've just stepped aside and said, "Please, take this, this, and this area I have marked out!"?
Banks have a monopoly on just about everything but small businesses .no they own them through debt.
Amazon is killing all businesses, and I'm betting every one of us have used both amazon and sainsburys at least once.
I was brought up in the corner shop of the 60s and the prices varied hugely and the variety of products had no comparison to today's market.
My favourite ad of all this Christmas. Love the Dickens feel, horrible, sad, a tiny bit of humour and most of all a beautiful ending.
Thanks Mae. Glad you enjoyed it. Karen
my guy stole an orange, met mrs sainsbury and turned into santa in the span of 2 and a half minutes, absolute legend.
No one:
Historian in 2019, studying about James VI: *GIVE HIM A FAIR TRIAL*
No-one saying nothing is a double negative
I'm disgusted, all these years & the fact that a third of all Victorian Children were in fact BAME has clearly been repressed & all but deleted from history; utterly disgraceful. Thank you J. Sainsbury for righting this wrong & travesty.
Shutup
@@Ratatouille0514 "Shut up"; it's two words & not one. Listen and learn.
Loved this Sainsbury, reminding the world of Saint Nicholas, excellent little take on a great Saint x
Didn't realise London was so diverse back then.
Sainsbury's think the shard was built in 1869
Teddy Taylor oh their historical revisionism but mustn’t mention that eh!
Sorry Sainsbury’s but after that ww1 Christmas ad, there’s no way this would ever top it. Like that ww1 advert is better than the recent John Lewis ads in my opinion
I felt like the stop motion one from
2016 was amazing I watch that every year
You loved ww1 that's sickening
That’s not what he meant, the 2014 advert showed the WW1 Christmas truce of 1914 its one of the most heartwarming and good moments in all of history and the advert is beautiful
Mr Chode dude, the ww1 Christmas ad is about the Christmas truce where the Brits and the Germans stopped fighting and treated each other as equals on Christmas. It was also released on remembrance day to celebrate 100 years since the start of ww1. Nothing sick about it.
Layton pro 🎩⚡
What is sickening is the fact that they exploited an event where an entire generation of men were killed by their own government as a means to make profit.
well I think we've found the winner for best Christmas Advert of 2019
Thanks Kieren. What was your favourite aspects of the advert? Lewis
@@sainsburys how the whole thing is shot it visually looks top quality
Bet you those victorians had more of a Christmas holiday with their families than the poor sainsbury’s Workers today !
And Who made it that, customers or the shops? Stop at home Boxing Day, and let them have at least two,days then,
I'm a bit older myself now, and I still believe in Saint Nick. If you look beyond what seems to surround us, there is still magic to be found.
What a smashing Christmas ad!
After watching the TV series and seeing how this was created, I was a little shocked that you didnt air it during that! But seriously, this one smacks you right in the feels! Well done to you all.
Thank you. Appreciate your support. Karen
Sainsbury’s, I’ll be looking at your oranges now. They better be on point!! 😂😂
I prefer the Argos advert with the geezer playing the child’s drum kit to Simple minds
rTrains
I think so to
I@@annamarybp iiiuyfd
They should just make a christmas ad where everyone goes on a bender. It'd win every year.
Wes Hoolahan but Christmas is about giving?
@@errdayiinvest1939 yes, giving alcohol to my liver 🥴
Giving a present to your self kinda doesn’t count :/ but maybe if you gave some as a gift you might get some back 😄
Yes. So would Norwich if Wes still played for us.
Not everyone is a degenerate that drinks non stop alcohol
Now this is what Christmas adverts should be like - Sainsbury's, you win!
Hey Lucy. I'm so happy that we win and that you love this ad so much. Whats your favourite part? AJ
@@sainsburys Bit hard to express in words, but it's the overall concept of the Christmas Spirit (the actual one, not the bottle of gin) prevailing. Just didn't get the John Lewis one. Allegedly, it's about not leaving anyone out at Christmas, but instead for me it demonstrates that this world is full of people who only like you when you've got something to give. As for costing £8m.........
@0:36 Pee Wee Hermin “I say we let him go”!!!🤣🤣🤣
Great advert, I love it. Well done Sainsbury
Thanks, Barbara! Leah
@@sainsburys Dont be delusional its terrible. And why do you buy into the carbon neutral scam? Oh yes its because all large corporations including JS make money from it.
Loved this ad. Can’t wait for this year’s Christmas ad!
Saw this yesterday brilliant advert tells a good story
Poor children were oppressed in the 1800’s they would routinely be sold off to work in factories and for sweep companies and most of those companies were owned by old white guys
She saw a boy be abused by his employer and framed for a crime he didn’t commit so helped him take revenge and then gave him what he needed to start a new life
That wouldn’t work the Santa origin they were trying to tell now would it silly
What was your favourite part of the story Callum? Fraser
@@sainsburys sorry, I thought I did reply , I like it as a whole, it's something different. Lots of adverts have a really christmassy advert with your normal christmas feel like a happy family, a snowman a christmas tree and so on.
Orange is the new Black English version 😁
While everyone is discussing historical accuracy... Sainsbury's inserts modern London skyline at 1:24 and no one notices. Nice one, Sainsbury's! Great production values.
Well spotted!
Lol this is actually how you treat your employees so that's cute 😂 the best part is "if you can't do something nice for someone at Christmas when can you?" And then you make night workers work ALL Christmas. Funny stuff Sainsburys 👏👏👏
Remember guys, we're the good capitalists! Just look how good our self insert is in the story we made up!
Guys forget our malpractice we are festive
@Powerful Panda please keep your fantasies to yourself.
I'd love to see and Mog one again. Maybe one where Mog is older and still manages to get into a jam
Mog one was the best
I’m sorry but nothing beats the greatest gift, listen to that every Christmas on repeat
I wanna find the greatest gift I can give my family
I can’t stop watching the “Give him a fair trial” guy bit. It’s sad that he suggested such a kind/smart action, and people only listened to him when he thought up banishment on the fly.
Interesting how it's only during the Christmas season that supermarket chains want to show 'meaningful' media. I'm sure it has nothing to do with motivating people to spend more during the harshest season
This is much better than the last 2 Sainsbury’s Xmas adverts in 2017 and 2018.
We're glad you think so! Corey
Well I liked this but I seem to be the only who did
I like it! It's just an advert, it doesn't have to be oscar worthy, just charming and memorable, which this is. Good child actors too!
Finally!!!!! I found somebody who actually enjoyed it!!!!!!!!!
The advert is okay, it's just that the actions of Sainsbury's themselves over the years don't reflect in this ad, making it seem disingenuous
I do too. It's fantasy.
I think it's pretty tasteless..and that opinion has nothing to do with how well made the ad is; just the vast sum spent on self agrandissment when a real gesture would be to have given a slice of their profits to charity.
Love this. Well done Sainsbury's 👍❤️🥰
and that child grew up to be father christmas
the end
I always knew Santa was real. Karen
Sainsbury's you legends
Oliver gets his gruel from sainsburys it's same gruel as everywhere else but more expensive
Oliver twist gets energy from Sainsbury's gruel to fist his own asshole it's amazing what you learn from you tube
David Smith I cant XD
@Powerful Panda Oliver Fist
We can’t lie mogs Christmas is the best and the og
But Tesco has the free fruit stands where parents can give their kids something while they shop - I don't think Sainsbury's does
How utterly fantastic and a cheeky plot twist at the end.
Out of all the xmas ads this year i really like this one..it felt christmassy and like a mini story of scrooge..
That's what we were going for, glad you liked it! Corey
From the WW1 add to this :(
Powerful Panda stop you’re not funny
We got a new ALDI this week! I get my tomatoes there.
I didn't think English kids were so ethnically diverse back then!
Right? I don't understand who this historical revision is supposed to convince, or why. Is it supposed to convince ethnically British (ie indigenous English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish) that there has always been a sizable population of non-Brits living here, and therefore our ancestral claims to this land are invalid? Or is it supposed to convince non-Brits that they have a shared cultural and historical tie to this nation, irrespective of the truth? Who benefits?
@@staceya5149 Perhaps both, mostly normalization I guess... Part of me gets it to be 'inclusive' for the sake of marketing and appeal, but to say how much our cultural has already changed and continues to change, at least let past memories and historical truth remain.
Okay, so is nobody going to talk about the fact that Chimney Sweep guy just had a 'Naughty List' of kids hanging over his bed for no apparent reason?
Africans 1800s England?
Might be the only thing worth watching at Christmas loved it 🌲
easily pleased it seems
funny, heartwarming and slightly sarcastic. Fabulous advert! Well done Sainsbury’s😂
Appreciate the kind words Matthew. Marc
Sainsbury's wait, what, you’re actually monitoring these comments? wow, what’s it like to be viscerally despised by your own people?
Love it how Sainsbury's was started by a woman now. So 2019.
Does it really matter?
it does matter... all the adds and all the movie remakes just for the sake of being pc... i don't see a ww2 movie remake where Hitler was a woman.... lol
Marius Fechete lets be honest there probably will be one soon

Glad you both enjoyed it, Helen & Bret! In the end, the baddie gets his come uppance and good prevails! Martina

U know it’s christmas when there’s a Sainsbury’s Christmas ad
Just loved the advert. The little boy was so lovable.
So that’s how Nicholas becomes Santa 😏
Because we all know London in 1869 was teeming with piccaninnies....
I wish giving an orange to a kid gives them bliss......
its 2019, either you get an iphone 11, ipad or some apple (did you get it, right...)
If i got an orange for christmas I'd be fuming
I always get one in my stocking, but that's with everything else :)
At least they used the correct term ' merry Christmas '
The best Christmas ad again ,well done Sainsbury’s 👌🏾👍🏾❤️
We're glad we've stolen your top spot Maggie! Fraser
Wow I didn’t know they had the Shard and the London Eye back in nineteenth century London! I have seriously underestimated my knowledge on the establishment of famous landmarks...
Yep...
When I was a kid I would have loved this, go baby Nick! Happy Christmas! 🎄
Nothing will ever be able to top Sainsbury 2014 advert
The kid jumping off the cart and landing like he's goddamn Batman 😂
Perfect. Thank goodness a major retailer understands Christmas. Jump jump!!!!!!!!.
SUPER!! Happy Christmas from Prague!
Where is the joy of Xmas in that ad? It's all misery and confrontation!!!!
Its because they aren't black. Being a white kid he's naturally a thief.
How the tide has turned.
@@JD-nv5sj The kid was literally revealed to be Santa at the end - wot?
@igeto12 A lot of these people are offended by this advert being 'racially historically inaccurate' - because this advert was obviously made to be a historically accurate creation with a thief being sent into a blizzard. 😂
You telling me Oliver Twist became Santa Clause at the end?
Its an advert not a history lesson
I watch for Sainsbury's advert each year !!!!! Great job !!!!!!!!!
Hey Ann. Thanks so much I'm really happy that you like it. Is this years ad living up to all the others? AJ
