This is their 2nd Christmas as a couple. Phillip's previous partner died. They consolidated their tableware collection and have a room to store just their dishes, etc.
Table is set for 12 or so, but there's only about 1 cup of gravy that's being reduced (simmered) even further. The prime rib is cooked to well-done. The theme is English (figgy and Yorkshire puddings).
Eric is pronouncing dragée "draggy." Not sure if that's an alternate pronunciation.

I detected no appetizers.
I think Phillip is aware of what his package is doing in those white pants. He might be proud of it.
Eric seems a little uptight about decor. I bet he was upset that Phillip cooked the prime rib to well-done. No carving, either. Just thin slices thrown all over a rectangular tray. Also, buffet style. I was surprised.
Didn't seem like a lot of food, IMO.

What. a. scream!
And yes, suddenly everything went down market when it became , ahem, buffet; (gasp!)
Why no servers? Although you can tell Eric couldn't tolerate letting go of the reins for one minute. Thre are probably dead servers buried in the backyard from parties of yore.

That can work the other way, too. Many of us are tired of the cozy home photos that [bold]always[/bold] feature the required dog as accessory.
Also the shoes with no socks. Apparently the dogs always eat the socks.

Yeah, it was probably filmed in November. Don't know why they had the artificial time constraint (we've got to do this is four hours), then they suddenly leave the house to go tchotchke shopping.

What an ordeal. I do admire their careful planning and attention to detail however, and wonder if the guests really notice the special touches.
It’s like when a bride plans her perfect wedding down to the very smallest detail. Did the guests notice? Did it matter?

When I was a young gayling, this is how I imagined my life would be, except my partner and I would be slimmer and better looking eldergays and less “fussy”. It did not turn out the way, but as an eldergay, I realize I would be JUST LIKE THEM. In fact, probably am but WAY LESS MONIED,

I live in Tewksbury. No joke, it’s the worst place I’ve ever lived-and I’ve moved around the country probably 20 times in my 50+ years. The entire area is just soulless - I have no other word for it, and lacks any appeal for me, even after living here almost 9 years. Partner and I are in agreement that it sucks so we’re putting the house on the market next summer. And no, we wont be using PrissPot Phil with his tighty whitey britches as our realtor.

For some reason, I think it's hysterical that they have a luxury crockery room where they keep 19th and 18th Century plates, tea sets, wine glasses and Art Déco goblets the colour of which comes from gold dust - and they have arranged everything by season, so they eat on plates of specific colours and themes depending on the time of the year! 🤣🤣 I would understand it if they ran a hotel, but all of that for only two people? Sorry, but they look like the sort of individuals who get into fights in monarchic forums over the appropriateness of wearing diamond tiaras before 7 in the evening, talk about aristocrats as if they knew them personally and get upset if their flower arrangements do not strictly comply with the Victorian language of flowers.
They appear to be harmless, but ridiculously pretentious and I do agree with R4 and R49: their lives appear to be extremely superficial, wasteful, banal and self-centered.

They are collectors of antiques and dinnerware, or perhaps the deceased partner was and left it all to Phillip. Its an utterly stupendous collection in all truth, worth a fortune. Yes, the whole thing is a thirst-fest, but its fierce antiquing, and Joe Basic isn't their audience.
However I guess they are the only gays in the village; shame the dinner party wasn't a group of wiitty eldergays stealthily insulting each other through the night.

Okay, I watched the two videos and I love both of them. I made my husband watch and I kept saying things like, "I like the fat one better," and he was like, "Who are you talking about? They're both fat!" But to me, one is clearly fat and one is just pudgy. Anyway, I have known some miserable rich people in my time, but these are two rich people who really fucking enjoy the fruits of their richness. They're always on the verge of a giggle. Two thumbs up, I like them.

So far as their china collection, Phillip has a side job selling china and cutlery so likely all of it is for sale and just being held and used by them until someone is willing to pay their asking price.
