I'm afraid that all I get is a screen telling me continuously that the video is loading, How long should it take?

We don't get that here on our TV, more's the pity. That is excellent in every way, beautiful, moving and deserves an award.

I liked it when the penguin was watching the television and when it was on the bus!! Am I right in thinking there are two JL adverts featuring the penguin?

And so it shouldn't.......Cynical retro advertising.....Millions of innocent young men died for something they had no concept of...A disagreement between royal bloodlines and the venal carving up of the 'Baltics'.....
Their memory on the 100th year since the conflict began begin hijacked by corporate business to sell more tins of peas.....They should be f#cking ashamed of themselves!

The ultimate goal of any advert is to generate sales for the copration represented….To use the ploy of emotion tugging conections to an event that is still in the process of being commemorated, an event so massive it tained the lives of billions of people around the globe to sell groceries is nothing short of reprehensible…..
