I don't know if that's a thing in England, but in Italy, there is a reality show called Pechino Express, where celebrities play in couples and travel around a foreign country just by hitchhiking. They also need to ask the locals for hospitality in order to sleep and go through some challenges.
I'm sorry if it's not very clear I'm the worst at explaining stuff, but anyway I would love to see them on something similar because it would show a lot of their vulnerability, a more real side of them I think.
It's also a game where the couples' bond needs to be strong and people tend to argue a lot so I guess it would be very interesting to see the dynamics between Dan and Phil.
EDIT: I also forgot to mention that at the end of the episode the winning couple gives money to a charity of their choice that operates in the country they are in so that's cool, too
,omfg I've never before thought about derpy and preppy competing in Pechino Express but now is everything I want in life. Except I want them to compete with other Italian semi-celebrities because I can imagine the awkwardness that would ensue Lmao

I just came here to say that in Lauren’s most recent Instagram story she’s got a Lion plushie that’s been guarding her home while she was away
Apparently this is feeding even more the theories that she's Phil's girlfriend and I find it absolutely hilarious
Will probably never be over the BONCAS and the beauty of Phil Lester.
i’ve never watch ‘Pékin Express’ (that’s the french version) but i would totally if deppy were in it!

oh we have that in the Netherlands too! Peking Express! It's not always with celebrities though. But oh would I LOVE to see D&P on a show like that, even if just for language shenanigans.

wait I thought the rumours were that she's Dan's girlfriend? Did I remember that wrong? Or can people not make up their minds as usual?

No no no it’s obviously Lauren/Phil and Sarah/Dan! Not only is that just aesthetically more pleasing (black and silver hair and then the warm tones) but clearly they want to feature their girlfriends by having the model their respective merch. I bet all parties are heartbroken they have to be away from the next month. However will they cope? Double wedding on the horizon I’m sure! wait...
i guess they're trying to tell us to back off by slowly introducing their secret girlfriends, i feel so bad for imprisoning dnp and forcing them to be in a relationship. lauren + phil makes so much more sense, and right after everyone bought his merch too... how could we be so blind? i mean, she bought his MERCH for crying out loud, they're clearly engaged!!! or did she get a lion for free? that makes it even MORE realistic
Lion was definitely an early, pre-merch release gift, he’s been waiting at home while she was on tour (no joke). I mean you don’t see Dan with his own lion, do you? And I can’t believe people would think an optimist like Lauren could be with Dan. Case in point: Lion was in front of a sign that says “no bad days” that doesn’t sound like the mantra of Dan’s significant other. Sarah on the other hand has some pretty relatable dark humor, perfect matches! Don’t think about Phil’s complimentary socks metaphors, don’t you do it!

Exactly! And clearly the fact that Lauren Is American is perfect because it explains Phil's love for American pancakes! How could we have been so blind

Phil...talking about how threesomes with a clone of your partner is technically not cheating and then asking Dan if he'd clone himself...and the apparent one bed? Not to mention the butt pregnancy bit... I'm struggling to find coherent thoughts right now. I barely focused on the game tbh. I'm in full demon mode right now lol
Okay I find it really gratifying that they decided it was finally time to put some work into developing skills, and I'm 100% okay that they did it off-camera. This was such a great move; I hope they also kept Evan and Dalien from flunking out of school land actually remembered to like, feed everyone a few times while they were at it.
It is funny that Phil was the one that did it. Was it to retain the dynamic of at least one of them being surprised and not knowing everything that was coming? I mean, smart too, but definitely reinforces the theory that Dan edits, Phil does all the game prep.
As far as video content itself - Phil's 'butts' obsession and the cloning conversation were hands down my favorite parts.

missed the editing window so I'm just going to tack this on here lol
edit: okay I watched it again, and tbh I'm glad that Phil went ahead and furthered everything off camera because it did make it more interesting to watch when they're not focusing on Dab and Evan. It was good for the sims, but like most sims videos it was their bants that really sold it to me

can't read that sentence the same way after "double pancake lovin" in the new vid, it's only making more sense.
edit: wasn't dan the one that said he would "fuck and kill" his clone in a gaming vid from earlier this year? where's the truth danny?
personally, i would probably hug my clone because he really needs one but also have an urge to punch it.

re: theory about dan editing and phil doing game prep @alittledizzy
i havent watched the new gaming vid yet as i have just gotten back home from work, but i remember this theory being confirmed indirectly by them? i dont have sources right now (i might look for it later) and i dont remember if it was a livestream or a casual video, but i recall one of them saying how they split off the work for the gaming channel. it makes sense because its a collab channel.
actually....as i type this, it mightve been from superamazingproject.....idk, im not sure anymore, ill let my memory jog a little bit
editing to pin the clip:
so it WAS from a liveshow, and it WAS about the superamazingproject...phil mentioned that they both do the editing in accordance to who wants to do what part. i guess its different than the gaming vids since its not really split off into different part, rather its just one whole thing. whelp imma just.....step back and say NEVERMIND

Ya know... I haven't seen a single Dan + Chan the Canadian Border Agent phanfic/phanart
What gives?

So Phil can fuck the clone, he's just gotta be self-aware that it's the clone and not the real Dan or Dan will have some words for him.
Phil doesn't even know dan's age so I think he already lost this one.
I like Lauren and Sarah and I liked following their IG stories during tour. I’d totally watch a YouTube channel if they made one together.
I don’t like the idea that there are fans who think Phil is the type of person to make a romantic or sexual advance on a woman who works for him. I haven’t come across anyone who thinks that’s the case myself, so I can’t speak to them directly, but the whole thing just makes me feel gross. As a work of fiction or fantasy sure, I’m not trying to stomp on anyone’s kink. As a belief about the type of men Dan and Phil are and how they treat people they have power over in a professional context? No. Nope. Noping the fuck right out of here.
Also there’s a video up and it’s cute af but I’m busy being bothered that there are fans who would still be fans if Dan or Phil were the type of men who treat their business like a dating pool.
I don't know where to post this, but is anyone else having trouble with private messages getting hung up in the "outbox" i don't think my last 3 messages have sent? Thanks
Good Sims vid! We were cracking up when they realized Erika Pancakes was part of the Howlter household. Also I’m here for Dan shaming the aesthetics of colorful fur suits. I’ve seen a few gorgeous photo shoots of realistic fur suits of foxes and even mythical creatures taken out in nature and I was like that I could get into, but brightly colored huskies? No thanks.
@watsonian sorry I got carried away with (what I find to be) a ridiculous concept. Defo not my kink, just poking fun, but I apologize if I contributed to a gross feeling.

Not at all! I'm not upset with anyone in particular, I'm just generally upset. I find Phil's rumored secret family with Janice funny on a similar level, so I can relate even if this particular rumor makes me sad.
Also I would like to submit my official appreciation for Dan's quiet in-an-enclosed-space-with-other-people voice from Phil's IG story.
so I guess it would be very interesting to see the dynamics between Dan and Phil.
wait...
lauren + phil makes so much more sense, and right after everyone bought his merch too... how could we be so blind? i mean, she bought his MERCH for crying out loud, they're clearly engaged!!! or did she get a lion for free? that makes it even MORE realistic
