I can't believe a tour would sell well at all...I listened to their pod for a bit as someone who'd never seen their vlogs and was underwhelmed. Packed full of adverts and poor content. I don't think they can be pulling many new listeners in or converting people into long-term listeners so can't imagine who would buy tour tickets 🤔

Wait what so they’re back for now? Just glimpsed at it and they’ve gone to chewton glen again??
I think the vlogs will be sporadic just to keep people interested because without vlogs their fan base is probably quite small. I was reading in the comments how many people were only interested in vlogs,I think podcasts are OK,but can become boring if the content doesn't have variety. I wonder if there stay was gifted,apparently the first couple of times were,transparency isn't their strong point which is disappointing considering they have a management team,you'd expect a far more professional way of doing business. This vlog was definitely to push their 2 live shows. Always makes me laugh when he says Clairs been working hard arranging these shows,shes probably had a couple of phone calls or meetings but I very much doubt shes liased with venues and organised everything.

Just seen a trailer for their podcast,James was talking about leaving sports day on the hottest day of the year, the look of anger on Clairs face couldn't be hidden,she looked as if she wanted to say'shut the F..k up,dickhead'. In this weeks vlog,James gave us a glimpse of just how fragile his ego is,he made his Trager ham and one of the boys said it was too sweet,as always James makes passive aggressive comments trying to 'act ', I think he was really annoyed and wasn't actually acting. James gets quite an angry look when he's really peed off. I get the impression he can be quite a moody,difficult man if he's not centre of attention or being told he's amazing. I genuinely dont know how Clair tolerates him,no amount of money is worth living like that. Both of them are probably having to sell themselves and their family on social media because his acting work isnt guaranteed or reliable,a bit like him I suppose.

I haven’t even seen it but can immediately imagine what it looked like. She always does it vlogs too. I reckon she thinks it makes her look sultry
I will never understand when someone is naturally pretty, they have to use these lip fillers etc, but I suppose it's the way of the world now, but most of them all end up looking like each other!!

According to her cleaning & laundry. As well as lunches with Danny Dyers wife,various trips with her other friends. I think she is now doing things for herself rather than 'Buckley 'brand.
Danny's wife is another lazy one.

I get the feeling he does that for his own ego because deep down he probably thinks without being 'famous',she probably wouldn't have given him the time of day. When they did the Inbetweeners reunion,he asked that Emily Atack wasn't included as they had previously dated and he felt it was unfair to Claire. Theres an old interview with Claire floating around where she openly stated she wanted a to be with someone where she wouldn't have to work.
so Clair's basically a gold-digger

I get what you’re saying however my mum has been lovingly like this with my dad for years my aunty used to lightly punch my uncle she is a very Scottish old school wife it’s all banter. Whatever her intensions at the start which I think were questionable being a high street hunny on FHM dating Allan McGregor the rangers goalie I think she loves him.

Yes it is rude and loads of people used to think he was a girl! It wasn’t intentional for him to have long hair as his brother didn’t but he just had lovely soft hair that grew quickly and suited him.

I thought the comment saying it must be because Clair wanted a girl was ridiculous!

The celebrity Gogglebox appearances didn't last,only 3 appearances. Wonder if they both broke a sweat and had to Miss filming for a week,it was almost like working for a living.

Isn’t hoping the ads pay out but still spending especially with two kids in this economy akin to using credit cards and accounts? That feels really risky. It would these days for even a two income household.
Totally agree with you. Both myself and partner are in well paid jobs but no way would we take risks and potentially bankrupt ourselves. I just dont understand their mentality, he can be very tight fisted until it comes to spending on himself and Claire ordeting Greggs and Costa for delivery,multiple take ways,yet advertising Hello Fresh. They no longer come across as the happy couple who started vlogging a few years ago. I think James saw covid as an excuse to no work and got used to it, they play he did was constantly moaned about because he couldn't stay at home. He says he wants to be with his family but leaves Clair to take the boys out while he stays at home ,sleeps or watches tv. He prioritises his socialising with his mates then spends the weekend sleeping off hangovers and sleeping in the guest room

Hasn't james made the most money ever on cameo (I think that's what it's called) or is that just paper talk.
Supposedly yes,but the wsy they dpend its probably already gone. He has an agent snd as 'the Buckleys' they have a management company, who need paying. The vlog was really popular and they just stopped,Claire could have continued while he was in the play, supposedly they have lots of celebrity friends she voild havr interviewed them. They just dont seem interested anymore

So wierd. I absolutely loved their vlogs not so long ago. And especially during lockdown.
Now I've got such a massive ick about them both I haven't watched the last few. I can't put my finger on what it is. I think they seem cynical about it all? Fair enough but just stop then?
I dont think they're the happy couple they have tried to portray. I think Claire has issues with him being away. If you compare the first 18 months to now, theres a big change in their rapport.

I think the problem is is she’s so over the top with it, a bit like her accent that it starts to come across as she’s just a bit of a bitch to him. I think they recently changed management and I’ve started to go off their content since

Most of the comments on the new podcast are asking about the vlogs. They obviously don't want to vlog anymore (Think James does but Clair has never seemed bothered)

They mentioned they'd got the Florida footage back before Christmas and said they might upload it. So I reckon they'll upload those before they even bother vlogging anything new.
I think they'll only vlog if they have sponsorship or an Ad. James is greedy and wants money for doing nothing,Clair is lazy.
