Have just started watching again after a long time away, but I actually really enjoy them again. Dunno why there was a lull for me for a while.
I do appreciate they still shield their kids from YouTube so well, fair dues they seem like great parents. Although sometimes I wonder what the boys think of their parents filming a lot and being busy with that kind of thing to where they can't come in the frame, I just wonder how they've explained that.

I also saw that they stayed at Chewton Glen where Zoe and Alfie and all them were often gifted stays, must've been nice and every credit that the place let them have a Rottweiler there, I was shocked but that's a good thing really since she's so sweet.

The kitchen is not my style but I have to say, aesthetically, it looks pretty darn good. The lighting when the overhead lights are off is super cool.

I've also been wondering how well they do financially to have done the reno and I looked up the cost of that oven and lost my jaw on the floor!! But they seem like they have managed money well throughout off and on acting work to be able to do that so fair dues again.

I watched in reverse so watched the opening night vlog of James' play, feat Tom Felton, and I am MORE shocked at the fact they're such good friends with Joe and Alfie than I am that they are with Tom. I just wonder how they even got started hanging out. It must be a wild feeling for Alfie and Joe watching James on the Inbetweeners and then now they're mates.

Must admit my least favourite vlogs are the ones with celeb or YouTube friends, I find those a little bit 'too much', but as a couple/family I really enjoy the vlogs , because they come across as quite relatable and normal (whatever normal is). Their vlogs are my guilty pleasure each week and look forward to whatever they share with us

I didn't mind at all Tom in there, because he was so down to earth and seems like a really nice guy. Don't know if you meant him too, but I completely agree if it's others like Joe, it comes across as performative a bit.

Me too, I'm glad to see what they've got upcoming :)

It's more the YouTube hangers on, they really are obnoxious. Tom was very quiet, I must admit Danny Dyer irritated me, he always comes across like he's playing a character instead of being himself

I think it's because Claire is good friends with Danny's wife.

I quite like when they show themselves socialising with their neighbours in the vlogs, they’ve been in them a couple of times and the couple that live next door seem really nice and down to earth as well, I’d rather see them than Danny Dyer!

Definitely. They seem so much more relaxed and natural with their neighbours. I'm afraid Danny Dyer is just irritating trying to play the hard man all the time

Never been a fan of Danny Dyer he just pretends to be a hard man but I remember when he hosted Deadliest Men, a bloke turned up to confront him, and he ran off like a baby, so scared, was hilarious!!

I was just thinking recently too that I'd totally watch a channel of just Clair as well if she ever wanted to upload vids specific to her- they probably won't but I just admire her attitude towards life, positivity and relatability, which YT is sorely lacking in these days.

Does anyone know if they managed to come out with their line of tees/ merch? I'm NEVER one to be interested in yt merch but they said they wanted it to be an actual brand that all sorts of people could wear and they were having to go back and re do and try to fix it into what they wanted last year I think because they wanted it to be quality.

She's great, but yeah, a channel featuring just Clair will probably be inundated with pervs like her Instagram is. I imagine James doesn't want that! 😂

^^ I agree. And it's cool she tries to have a dialogue with her followers on IG, like still leaves the comments open and stuff, but god knows what she gets sent.
I've noticed people in the comments on yt start to get a little bolder about commenting on her looks, most do it politely but we know what they're thinking. And some guys come on all " me and the wife LOVE your channel you guyysss" yea lol not sure about how your wife really feels with you oogling another man's wife but ok. ( Sorry this just bothers me, because I feel like these types of comments take away something when they sort of always reduce you to your looks).

On another note, I really like when they go out to do little day trips or outings. I recently did a lot of catching up on older vlogs and loved the one where they went to the shops, and about DIED during the one where they went to that old village for one of the boys' bdays and James was feeding all the animals and had that one chicken running all over the place to find him.

I'm starting to get the vibe lately though that they're becoming too worried about making an "ideal" vlog based on perceptions or what they see from other channels and so they seem to be editing out quite a lot that maybe they would have left in before. I hope they don't start becoming overly cautious because that's what made the vlogs so fun to begin with; when the content was just all over the place in a good way.

I don't know why but after loving their vlogs I've just lost all interest. I watched one last night, first time in ages, and their new kitchen 😬. Really don't like it. All those bloody bathroom tiles.
I see Tom Draco Felton is now in the play James was in.

Sometimes, I get the feeling James is pushing the social media and vlogging side of things because it's probably a regular source of income and sponsors, but Claire seems happier with a less formal set up. She is good with interacting on IG, but I think James needs to stop pushing her and let her do her own thing, I think she is probably more popular than him with most of the followers. This is just my opinion,but to me it looks like James enjoys being the 'face' and being seen, whilst Claire does lots of the work that isn't probably seen and is more than likely time consuming. I wonder if she likes vlogging or if it's just another job she has to do? After saying that, I do like the idea of Claire having her own true crime channel, preferably without James, so it can be about her and something she enjoys
