I know someone on instagram who’s very much like this, her daughter is about 3/4 and her favourite film is scream, she says she’s not into Disney. I’m sorry but at that age they shouldn’t even know they exist!

I think from the last couple of videos they've removed that skull from the sitting room thank goodness.
I hope the children aren't exposed to a lot of the horror/serial killer stuff. They're only kids and you think they can rationalise it but sometimes they can't, and feel they're wusses to admit they don't like it.
When my daughter was about 10 she stayed with her best friends overnight. The parents (good friends too) said they all were going to watch The Exorcist and I said absolutely not. Under no circumstances. Anyway it turns out they did and I was livid. Shouted down by everyone in my ex husband that I was being silly and it was just 'pretend' and that the children had found it funny.
Years later my daughter told me she had been absolutely terrified and hadn't wanted to watch it. It had affected her for a very long time.
Clare especially seems to find horror and gore entertaining and amusing, and glamourous - fair enough if that's her thing - but I really hope they shield their children from it.

don't understand why a woman with no job needs to use HF. She's at home all day lol.
James earns loads doing cameo, easy money, just sending a short message .Who is their management now that Gleam is no more? I've only watched a few of their vlogs as they didn't interest me enough to watch more regularly, but I saw James on Twitch a few times and got the impression that he's quite money-orientated.
Clair was a FHM 'High Street Honeys' finalist in 2007. She said she wanted to win so that she didn't have to get a real job

I wonder why they see Danny and Jo as goals cos their relationship is toxic as fuck. All they talked about is the horrible arguments they had.
I find their podcast incredibly boring- they only have 2 types of story, drunks on trains, sex toys- it’s such a boring podcast I can’t believe it’s in the pod charts.
I think he’s made about 280k a year from cameo but I saw a bit of his show with Neil Morrisey and his acting was shite.

She constantly posts pictures on IG saying tired Icehockey mum,I think she will love all the attention from men,because I dont for one moment believe that James attends kids training sessions or anything that isnt public enough where he can play the celebrity. I notice she never deletes any sexual or disgusting comments on her posts from men

Im really hoping as an animal lover that if and when they return they actually sit down sensibly and discuss with viewers what actually happened with Paisley 
At the end of the day their audience are adults and they were a five in a sense, im pretty sure she was even on the cover of their book so I think a discussion about pet loss and their experience would be really good.
Overall I like Clair and James and they clearly loved her but if I'm totally honest I found it hard not to judge when in some her last appearances Paisley was looking VERY out of condition and panting heavily just walking around the house she also seemed to be struggling badly with her weight on her walk with James
I genuinely thought at the time that poor dog is going to end up pegging out with a heart attack
Obviously it could of been something long term that they hadn't shared but I hope they realise that we don't expect every vlog has to be daft and jokey it's ok to vlog and give us a bit of genuine reality .

Again no vlogs for 3 weeks,despite claiming to have one barbecuing, but lots of Aff links from Clair and James actually working on comic relief, thats probably him done with work for this year. They only do the podcast because someone else probably edits and uploads,that would eat into their precious drinking time. So many lazy so caĺed celebrities with failing careers use youtube to fund their lifestyles / grab freebies but can't be bothered to put in the work required
They were her words, it was a video of an interview for one of the lads mags she used to model for. I 100% believe she's a good mum and adores both boys,as for her and James I really don't know. I think at times she comes across as bored with the lifestyle, he's out and about with his mates and playing the 'celeb'and she's at home cleaning the toilets and endless laundry, not a very glamorous lifestyle and maybe not what she expected when they first met

Did wonder this, if they thought he had a chance at making it really big in the height of inbetweeners fame, but then got married and had 2 kids back to back at 24. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but if I had the chance of being a movie star I may have waited a couple of years haha.
They do like to project themselves as being cool but they have lived a pretty sheltered life, settled down very early, don’t really travel the world etc. they just skipped the ‘20’s and free’ stage. Don’t know if maybe they now have FOMO so overjustify being ‘homebodies’. I mean, sure, I’m in my 30’s too and love a takeout and movie while the kids are in bed. But I didn’t so much in my early 20’s, had to get ‘party’ out my system, and I didn’t even have the chance of getting into celeb parties. She really locked it down fast “accidentally”, “twice”, and put a stop to all that.
You're right, eventhough James is at home I think he spends most of his time doing his own thing. The vlogs do give the impression that he's extremely lazy and selfish, he went out and bought lots of food for his own meals,cooks for himself. I know Claire does a lot in the house but cooking isn't particularly strong, take aways,eating out and processed food does seem to be heavily relied upon. Sometimes Claire seems almost fed up/bored, I wonder how she'll cope once the boys are older

Does James have a relationship with his family? Assume they’re pretty close geographically, and there’s vlogs in Scotland and chat about when he first met her family etc, but haven’t heard the other way round. Or them popping over for a BBQ etc. unless I missed it? They mentioned he’d gone though hardships when they met so wondered if something had happened…

James on with a Go Henry ad now. It's like the anti of why their channel got popular because it didn’t seem like they were in it for the money and just wanted to let us in on their lives and now it’s only ads almost it seems.
fair enough, everyone has to earn an income, but it feels a little like “ wait, you want us to go support this random business that approached you to pay you when we know you didn’t find and support the product on your own”, so it loses its merit.
I know its their every right to do this but boy how I am disappointed by it.

To be fair considering Clair has such a good figure and she's pretty,she always dresses very clunky and 'scruffy'Well I think those joggers look awful

He seems surprisingly shy on TV. I've seen him on House of Games and recently on The Hit List (I can't remember who his partner was - not Clare - but he just stood there like a lump and hardly contributed anything for all his love of music). He's not very quick witted outside of the vlogs - where I used to think him funny - haven't bothered now in ages as they annoy me too much.
There was a Children in Need ad flashed up earlier - he and Clare seem to be doing something for it.

Yes that's interesting - I wondered where the 'Clare's so mean to James' comments were. I too presume here as I haven't read anything like that in comments on YT.
I dunno, just seemed a bit off - he was clearly anxious and subdued looking for reassurance and she kept on taking the piss. I get that their on camera relationship is lighthearted bantz. I just felt a bit sorry for him tbh.
Things must be bad, instead of just saying where she bought the jumper,posting a link so is it an affiliate link ? As usual not declared. On IG she posted about him being in the play again, only comment she responded to was Vicky Pattison, 'if you want to see it again let me know and we'll grab cocktails '. Claire seems more interested in celebs and freebies. No doubt vlogs will reduce or stop ,James actually working means Claire has less interest if any in the vlogs
