As we know, the season of holidays is a time for celebration, giving gifts and endless amounts of advertising. Advertisements are an iconic part of the holiday season, with companies making all-out efforts to make works of art that last—at least until next year when they outdo themselves entirely.

These advertisements are extraordinary, and we all have our favourites, Coca-Cola or John Lewis. The moment our screens are filled with them, it ignites something in our subconscious and lets us know that Christmas is just round the corner. The tradition continues.

John Lewis launched its advert in early November 2014, usually between November 7 and 15. If we were to predict based on that, we might see it on November 11 or a little earlier than usual on November 4.

No matter how you look, it will be here in just a second. Last year's advertisement featured a story in which a boy named Nathan discovers a spaceship belonging to an alien that has had an accident on Earth, and out of it comes a young alien called Skye, teaching her Christmas traditions.

Social media is buzzing with guesses about what the new ad will be about and what song it'll use. According to the most famous predictions, two people will fall in love after encountering each other in the queue to see the late Queen Elizabeth II lying in state.
