The new M&S Christmas advert has just arrived, and with it a huge amount of excitement across social media.
The advert stars the infamous bear from deepest, darkest Peru; Paddington Bear, as he joins 'Santa' delivering presents on his sleigh.
In the advert, the animated movie version of the favourite bear, can be seen wearing his traditional blue duffle coat, as he comes across a burglar he mistakes for Santa. When he finds all the presents the burglar has stolen, Paddington innocently decides to help the burglar to deliver them (back) to their rightful owners.
Watch the full M&S Christmas advert below:
The advert was released in the early hours of the morning on Tuesday (7th November) and it wasn't long before people were commenting about it on social media.
Titled Paddington and the Christmas Visitor this year's advert will be linked to 90 products including a £12 soft toy version of Paddington and a £42 duffel coat.
The High Street retailer will also be hosting children’s book readings in store and encouraging staff to carry out 'random acts of kindness' including free marmalade sandwiches in the café.
With the release of this advert, the expected release of the John Lewis Christmas advert later this week and the announcement of the Coca-Cola truck tour locations, Christmas is well on its way.
Check out some exciting new products including a cheese advent calendar, a beauty advent calendar and some potential Christmas presents.
