Hi guys welcome to Joel & Lia, we've got a really fun Christmas Q&A for you if you
can't tell this is my DIY boring jumper interesting jumper we just went live on
Instagram and showed some of you guys that and you all found it hilarious. Right let's go.
Welibe says, this is from Instagram by the way all these questions were from insta follow us on
our insta we do most things on there what do you prefer Christmas Eve or New
Year's Eve? Christmas Eve hundred million percent. Oh definitely New Years Eve is so overrated
SO overrated and it's always forced fun yeah because you have to like make a plan
stick to it there's always people you don't like around. Next question
what is your favourite holiday by that I think you mean what's my favourite time
of year yeah holiday American version of holiday
pancake day that's really - what's the traditional name? Shrove Tuesday that's a
really good one next year on Shrove Tuesday Joel, you and I have got to do an out and
about best place for pancakes yes we're just gonna collab with every pancake shop in London I
think aside from Christmas mine would have to be bonfire night, yeah you've said that before. I absolutely love it.
is winter wonderland worth it yes or no no it's so overrated there's loads of
people about you can hardly move if you go on a Saturday or on an evening
yes it's chaos and also the stuff that you can buy there is quite tacky and
overpriced and overpriced the only good thing is the food and the drinks but
again they're overpriced but they do taste nice yeah if you want to go somewhere
busy for mulled wine you can go there or you can explore some of the other
markets and the other cool Christmasy things check them out on Christie's
Channel yeah we made a video with Christie all about things to do in London
to get you in the Christmassy spirit and there we cover all the different markets
and festivals and Christmas lights in London including winter wonderland so
you can stalk it as well yeah next question
any advice for studying in the UK um that's quite a broad question I have no
idea whereabouts you are in your study right now that's from shazzy oh no
See I've obviously written it badly *can't pronounce the name* says any advice for studying in the UK
rifdia has asked any advice for studying in
the UK and this has come from Instagram so my advice for studying in the UK
would be make sure you go to a location that you know you're going to enjoy yes
it's so much about the city you go to as well isn't it? If you want a quiet
experience there are so many quiet university towns like Sussex or like
Chichester yeah or Warwick something like that but if you want a busy environment
then go to one of the major cities you know Manchester Leeds London yeah or
consider like going up to Scotland, Edinburgh uni's amazing oh definitely
next question is how did you guys meet which we get all the time we've answered
it loads on this channel but just for anyone who doesn't know we met at drama
school at a place called RADA which is in central London and we weren't friends
but we are now there you have it another Christmassy one from Ian Wang is mulled
wine or eggnog Never tried eggnog it would have to be mulled wine
what is an eggnog egg nog it sounds disgusting. We should know what that is on this channel
I know but it's not British so why would we know are you sure? I'm pretty sure it's American
eggnog I just know it looks milky cuz I've seen it in American movies but it
sounds gross is it like an eggy drink okay mulled wine mulled wine okay so the
next question is what's your favorite Christmas song I've got two my favourite
like Christian-y one like what do they call them carols that's the word
Carol, that's what I was looking for, Oh night divine what's that *sings*
a Christmassy song I really like that isn't carols is Christmas by Michael
Buble open brackets baby please come home close brackets. What's that one? *sings* Ok don't do it too much
coz we'll get demonetized. what's that one that I like *sings* That's Fairytale of New York. I hate it, he can't even sing!
I think the reason why I like it is because it's like oh yeah it's just a bit rough
yeah, he's a terrible singer yeah one of the ones that gets me into the .... Santa Baby?
that's what you're dressed like. *sings* No, I really like Driving Home For Christmas. Even though I can't drive and I've never driven home for Christmas or ever.
got the train home for Christmas! That's a good parody, like getting on a packed train and being like getting train home for christmas. Next question. So Lia's written the names down but can't really
tell from her handwriting looks like Brian Ming but maybe it's not, so I'm just gonna skip over the name. says worst
Christmas presents oh I know mine instantly when I was like I don't know
how old but quite young and my parents got me a German dictionary and I didn't
even study German at school like I've never studied German ever and I was like oh thanks it's
now like a funny story in my family that they're like... my mum thought I was
studying German when I was actually studying Spanish so she bought me a German dictionary.
that's amazing yeah I think the worst Christmas present I've ever
had is money! really? JUST KIDDING I LOVE MONEY! I was gunna say you're so spoiled I only got money for Christmas just kidding I love
getting money in a card i open the card and shake it out, I'm kidding. I get the card and I'm like "wheres the cash?"
yeah it's not there! no worst present I've ever had is
something I know I'm absolutely not gonna use like for instance I told my
family that I love sushi they know I love sushi
they bought me this like really bad not even nice one sounds like such a spoilt brat!
really bad sushi making kit but like definitely from Poundland like it's up there, do you
want to see it? No. Okay it's so bad it's like plastic and it's like it's not a
bamboo mat it's like this plastic roller that looks like plastic rollers you'd
roll up a Rizla in, like for a cigarette. You could have like got it from somewhere I actually like!
This time last year we did a video all about what Lia wants for Christmas. What did it say? I can't
remember you got out this massive list afternoon cream tea at a London hotel
trip to Japan like it was like all of these things, you are so spoilt. That is my WISH list, I know I'm never gunna get them that's why I'm wishing for them!
Joel! but some were normal like food flask which you got but then I
remember on Christmas day and Lia was like "THEY BOUGHT THE WRONG ONE". Did I? I'm such a spoilt brat! So ungrateful and I was like I got one too and it was the
right one and it made her mad yeah cuz I didn't get the spoon with it
but it's a good size mine. yeah mine's smaller than yours but I got the
spoon I've got a big appetite I use my own spoon use your fingers! So the next question is,
do you have any Christmas....*getting the giggles* So the next question is, do you guys have any - *laughing*
okay so the next question is so do you guys have any Christmas traditi-
Right moving on, different question
we've got an event to go to we need to hurry up, we have to hurry up you have to get this
question out. We've got three videos to film and Gabby if she gets it to us. You've cried!
Adam from Instagram *laughing* said do you have any special
Christmas traditions you do with each other / family yeah we have a
tradition together where we buy loads of food and eat it and answer questions on
camera, but now we're too celeb to eat the food on camera reduce so we just do the questions. Coz we get hate comments about our size!
So we stopped eating! He's on soup all week! I've lost a stone already since
being called a plumpkin on our Halloween video
okay do we have any special traditions we've answered that.
with family we play Monopoly every year that's nice
um no not really we don't open presents straight away we don't have stockings we
wake up we just have a slow morning having pancakes getting ready then at about 11 or
12 we'll open presents. They're so like non-British. Pancakes on Christmas morning! but we won't open any presents until the afternoon we have to be really self-controlled. I'm like "come on!" and everyone's like
"Joel you're the youngest" that's hilarious I'll like wake up rundown open all of mine and then just be like
oops, gone! because I don't like watching people
or being watched while opening presents if we do it all at the same
time I'm thrilled. you don't do that thing where you watch everyone? yep.
basically like mum and dad which ones - my mum numbers all of our presents and has
a list of she knows what which each one is gonna be so I'll be like mum can I open number
9 is she's like no no save number 9, number 9's a good one. OMG I can't!
I just was a bit sick in my mouth seriously it's such organised fun at my household!
But you guys are funny so it would be really fun naturally but I just don't know if I
could deal with being watched yeah and watching someone open something
that I got for them oh I love that I love watching people's reaction when
they open presents I bought them. *shudders* Oh I'm just squeezing my bum cheeks together cringing!
Clenching! and lastly we've had some questions about surgery! surgery this
year's been a year of surgery! Joel's had his eyes done, I've had my nose done, it's really nice actually we've been surprised at how
many nice comments and nice people we've had like checking up on us - nice people
checking up on us and just being really nice so yeah my eyes we'll
start with that coz your nose is more interesting my eyes are fine now
What? "coz your nose is more interesting" it's more dramatic! but yeah my eyes are fine I can see perfectly well they've healed
perfectly apparently they're a bit dry so I have to keep taking eyedrops but
apart from that I've got twenty to twenty five years of perfect vision now.
excellent news, claps for Joel. thank you yeah, claps for Lia because apart from all the fluff that's coming
up bloody Mrs. Claus I can breathe but yeah I'm numb here I'm still swollen here so
this is all gonna go down and the last thing that will go down will be the tip
of my nose coz that's where the skin is thickest and breathing wise excellent
apart from I have had a cold this week so I'm not feeling
the full benefits of breathing through both nostrils yet. I was
immediately after the surgery I was like this is amazing I've noticed it normally when
we're filming Lia has to like - we have to pause filming while she blows her
nose because she constantly has a blocked nose and you don't do that anymore well
hopefully it will stay, hopefully it won't just be something that's like a quick
fix yeah so yeah thank you for all of your
really lovely comments and support I really appreciate it and I'm blocking
out everyone who says anything else yeah had fluff on my lips for the whole video
so if that's a thing then please no hate yeah
hate on the nose not lips okay guys that's our Christmas Q&A yeah thanks for
watching if you have any more questions ask them in the comments we won't
probably do another video but we'll respond to them in the comments yes so
collabmas is sadly over now we had an amazing month in December met with so
many of our friends and there's so many friends that we couldn't manage to get
in there but we're gonna do loads of collabs next year, so please carry on
watching our channel yeah if you've got any suggestions of who we should collab
with let us know in the comments below I'd be really intrigued to hear yes last
thing guys have an amazing Christmas and I hope you get everything you
want if it's a trip to Japan or an iPad or spending time with your
family... maybe. just hope everyone has a lovely time and eats lots of food yeah but
