When Jeff said flat instead of apartment *the british influence is taking over*

is noone gonna talk about Tom's impression of the Queen? 😂

Love these videos but im from Hampshire and ive always been told Father Christmas lives in the North Pole. Crazy how much variation there is around traditions x

Christmas puddings are that that thing that you either love or hate no in between

Its funny how at the start it says "DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME" when most family's round the country do this every year.😆

I love these. Wish you guys had a proper regular show.

I’m British and Santa is definitely from North Pole

Totally true - it would have been a different convo with different representatives from each country. Holidays are very influenced not only by country, but by region and by family tradition.

One Christmas, my Mum spilt the brandy on the table and the table cloth went up in flames🔥🔥🔥I’m still scarred 😔

I was taught that santa lives in the North Pole but you can go and visit him in Lapland

That Christmas pudding would serve at least four people, and as others have said it should be eaten with cream or custard.

You should have had cream with the xmas pudding lol

Wait I’m from Britain and I’m so confused because I was told Santa lives in North Pole but also Lapland and I never knew which one it was lol

i love how jeff called his apartment his flat, in the uk holiday spirit :))

Happy Christmas, guys! I love your segments!! Take care!!

This duo's content was something I never knew I needed

You should soak it in brandy then light it on fire, soaks better and burns throughout the pudding

This video was really fun and festive 😁👍🏼❤️ loved it.. thanks for creating

As someone who grew up in New York City Christmas market is a HUGE thing...

I love when Tom said “the UK, land of train station pasties,” the visual they used was of the Washington DC metro system haha it’s verrrrrry architecturally obvious. Hard to tell what station... farragut north?

Dude that is a legit gingerbread kit!! They never come with that many icings!

You need to let that mulled wine simmer a bit longer to get the full flavor

They're my favourite anchors. Happy holidays boys!

The Brits: [hate on Jeff any time he has a negative opinion on anything British] Jeff: ughh this Christmas pudding, I hate it The Brits: ....yeah, we’ll give you a pass on that one

I LOVED Thom's Gingerbread House!!!!! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

Loved seeing how excited and in his creative element Tom was making his first gingerbread house. I really liked the rainbow icing on the one side 🌈

Tom if you ever have to fill a piping bag, fold/roll the top part down so it's easier to fill. You can also put it in one fist with the top part that you rolled down over your hand for stability. I probably didn't make sense, but I'm sure there's videos on youtube.

Imagine him eating pecan pie with actual pie crust, instead of pizza dough

I’m English and 27 we have all been told Santa comes from the North Pole

I was born in Alabama. I’ve lived in Alabama for my whole 56 years of life and we’ve always had both pecan pies and mince pies.

Love these British, American videos, but to clarify, we do have mince meat pies in America. I remember as a young girl if company came ,someone would sometimes bring one. I don't like them, but they're here. I think bc I'm from New Jersey and my parents were from Pennsylvania it came from the Amish. I see them a lot in Amish markets.

I’m in the US and my grandma always made mince pies and fruitcake at Christmas. She said we are descendants of Stephen Hopkins of the Mayflower.

In Canada my family celebrates both Thanksgiving and Christmas with turkey (and all the fixings) or ham (and scalloped potatoes) dinners. We eat fruitcake at Christmas (which I love and everyone I know hates) or pumpkin pie (which I hate and everyone else loves). We also drink mulled apple cider. Love watching your videos.

Yeeeeessss🙏🏽 Thanks for mentioning our Finnish Santa 🇫🇮🎅💖

I loved your gingerbread house!💗

I live in the US and my family had mince pies every Thanksgiving and Christmas with hard sauce (butter, powdered sugar, and brandy). It's definitely a thing here.

In regards to Christmas Markets, the way I see it is that it is something like an Alpine Village that is setup once a year in several different cities during that time, where they will have several booths and stalls serving various foods and items. In the Los Angeles area, along with Alpine Villages, the have an area called Santa's Village, which is more of a small amusement park or carnival.

Don't try this at home...when he is literally trying this in his home🤣

That is the exact gingerbread house I'm going to be doing on Christmas Eve lol

When I saw he had brought Three Barrels whiskey 😂 (the worst one) no wonder his Christmas pudding was bad.

Chicago has always had a Christmas market

The British Fair thing happens in the US. It occurs at the old US malls. Kids did the Santa picture and telling what they want. Parents would walk the fairs outside of the actual mall shops where actual artisans sell their homemade stuff. There's even a small shop created behind Santa where kids could buy gifts for their families. It was really fun.

I feel like the Brit should've eaten a fruitcake while the American ate the Xmas pudding.

I love Christmas pudding 😂. With brandy butter of course. Loved this ❤️

I love their duo’s

Black Friday in the UK really winds me up, we’re brits, we have Black-Eyed Friday!! And I also think, If we’re adopting the American equivalent of our Boxing Day sales, then we should adopt Thanksgiving too! I could happily go with a Thanksgiving meal 😂

As a Brit, I love Christmas pudding, but with a nice dollop of custard rather than plain. My American husband likes it too, but it took him many years to get on board with mince pies.

Love Tom 😂😍

As much as it is in a way cheating, the Schwartz mulled wine spice is honestly a lifesaver when making mulled wine at home! Or you can just buy some good ol' Gluhwein from Aldi! ALSO: Mincemeat is so called because they used to contain meat! Nowadays it consists of dried fruits, candied peel and fresh orange and apple. I made it a couple years back and it's a fun if not slow process! You combine your fruits, sugars, fat (commonly shredded vegetable suet!) and spices in a large heatproof bowl/casserole dish. You mix them all together and leave overnight so that the flavours intensify. You then bake it low and slow for a couple of hours and cool, stirring regularly to ensure that as the fat re-solidifies, it is well distributed throughout the mixture, then you finish by adding in an alcohol (Brandy typically, but I used a dark rum for more treacle flavour!) and popping it into jars.

We also do gingerbread houses in Sweden as a Christmas tradition.

me just being kind of weirdly proud he has a mug from the Christkindlmarkt in Vienna

My grandmother used to make mincemeat pies, and the mincemeat she used had beef suet (fat) in it, so I think some mincemeat is not technically meat-free, even though it's mostly fruit and spices.

Michigan has Bronners which is basically a huge christmas market

Wait I thought mince pie was a thing in the states? I remember having it when I was little and I’m from the states. But maybe it was just my family and not a common thing to have around the holidays here

The pan of brandy on fire tho 🤣🤣🤣

The Christmas pudding had me dead 💀🤣🤣 No one likes Christmas pudding 🤣 Kinda set yourself up there looool 💀😂😂

I've made mince pies with minced beef and brandy inside. They were the best mine pies I've ever had.

Growing up in Nova Scotia we had green tomato mincemeat, it is so yummy. I'm not sure if it came from one of the world wars, to use what you had. I look forward to making a batch every year.

That pecan pie looks decent! Pecan pie is my favorite.

Love the video 😍😍🥰🥰. But I have a question. Doesn't the alcohol cook off? So did it have the same effect as uncooked wine and alcohol?

we have a thing called Holidazzle Here in MN. Like a Christmas Festival. going on for a long time.

They have quite a few Christmas Markets in the US. I live in Pennsylvania and there’s 2 not far from me

Tom is my favorite person ever

I need that spice set in my life🙏🙏🙏 please tell me where you got it. It’s too cute

Boxing Day is the day to laze around and watch TV. The cricket starts and the start of the Sydney to Hobart.

Omg 😂 I didn't know Tom was from Newcastle - I'm from sunderland 😂

Ahem! We have advent calenders too, where I live they were there by the time Halloween started

LOL when he put the Clementine segments in to the Mulled Wine! 😂 No you poor little lamb, you are supposed to chop the clementine in to slices or wedges. I also recommend adding a couple of table spoons of brown sugar and a shot or two of Amaretto if you want a sweeter mulled wine. 😄

In the US, we do have what's called Mince meat pies, but I'm pretty sure they also have raisins in them.

Mincemeat pies are amazing!!! I have tons of trouble trying to find them in America!

That pecan pie made me sad. It had like no pecans. I make them all the time. I wana cry.

I'm from Newcastle upon Tyne like him and santa is from North Pole 🤣 loved the nufc ginger bread House though aha

You need thick cream custard and brandy butter for the Christmas pudding .

Rovaniemi in Finnish Lapland is where they have Santa's village you can visit.

Mince pies , Christmas pudding and Christmas cake are all things that you either hate or love in the UK

We still do have mince pies with actual mince in UK

Lights brandy on fire and pours it on pudding. "Omg it's so hot!"

“Howay the lads” Wayai man!!! Jordie Pride!!!

Tom is my new favorite person

What kind of animal told you to eat the xmad pud without custard or brandy sauce!!?

We eat christmas pudding not because of the taste but the history of it but you have to have cream or ic cream , i dont like it very much but i still eat it because it makes me happy

The fact that i could see the editing line on the edge of their bodies🤣

But we have gingerbread and gingerbread houses at Christmas here too 💁🏻‍♀️

That reaction to the Christmas pudding was so incredibly extra

New York City and Chicago have had huge Christmas markets for many years. Jeff should travel more in the US. LOL

JEFF WHERE IS THE CUSTARD ON THE CHRISTMAS PUDDING

I'm an American, from the South where pecan pie is an institution, but I really am not a fan. I love pecans, but the pie just tastes like a congealed lump of overly-sweet yet unseasoned mush. I can taste the staleness of that gingerbread house, but I do like a fresh gingerbread cookie. Also, where are the candy canes, gumdrops, etc. to decorate the house?? I've always wanted to try a sticky toffee pudding. I'm confused about mince pie because I googled it the other day while watching GBBO and all the recipes had meat...

The gingerbread house looks like the ones at aldi

We do have actual mince meat pies too

Um…. Tom, wheres the cool whip on the pecan pie??? Anyone else?

How do I get to do this on the US side, I would love to do this!!! Sign me up on the US side please!

Who ever actually eats christmas pudding in the UK not me

please tell me you guys are also low-key shipping them, don't they look adorable as a couple?

Crab on Christmas

Yeh u definitely need to add more spice and the orange peel

Current minced meat pies are the meat of nuts and fruits. Back in 50's we had minced meat pies. ..could purchase jar of chopped fruits and nuts...to put into crusts.

I live in the UK and at my two primary schools that i went to every Christmas time on last week until Christmas break we would just do crafts and have a Christmas disco and going to see santa one year i remember we had reindeers come but one of them days we would have a day where we would get a pantomine people to come in then we would get shown a pantomime so yea also on that day it would be christmas dinner day so everyone that morning would beg their parents to let them have Christmas dinner and the rest of the day was just Crafts and movies so yea fun days

5:33 interesting 😂

Scoop of vanilla ice cream on pecan pie.....next level.

Fun fact: it's called mincemeat because originally it did have minced meats and fruit in it.
