Coca-Cola's 'tear-jerking' 2020 Christmas advert is out now - watch it here

For many the season does not properly start until the iconic red truck is spotted on our TV screens for the first time.

Along with the iconic ‘Holidays are Coming’ song.

Just thinking about it is enough to make you want to Deck the Halls.

However, Coca-Cola have also produced a new Christmas advert for 2020 to go along side the annual festive truck.

They enlisted Oscar-winner director Taika Waititi, best known for the films JoJo Rabbit and Thor: Ragnarok, for the ad.

In the advert, a father attempts to deliver his daughter’s Christmas list to Santa in time for December 25 – travelling over land and sea in his mission.

You can watch the video embedded in our story above.

People have been raving about the advert online.

Popular Twitter account Rex Chapman posted the video, writing: ‘This is the 2020 Coca-Cola Christmas ad. Break out the tissues...’

One person added: ‘So Sweet.'

Another said: ‘The whole time I was like, this is dumb. I’m not gonna cry. Where did he get a motorcycle? Why are the dogs running behind him? And then BAM.’

One person wrote: ‘Oh, that’s a sentimental ad - the parting of dad & the daughter. I’m sure many will be able to relate.’
