Thank you for sharing this delightful conversation! You had a wonderful time discussing various aspects of a traditional Christmas dinner, including the excitement and challenges of cooking turkey, the intricacies of side dishes like cranberry sauce, pigs in blankets, and Yorkshire pudding, and the cultural significance of the meal. It's lovely to hear about your exploration of Christmas traditions and the joy and nostalgia they bring.
Really enjoyed this dinner conversation setup! It's a great way to hear natural English in context. Thanks for providing such a practical learning resource!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Loveeee ittttt this kind of videos makes me feel even closer to British culture so thank you ❤
Thank you so much for your beautiful lessons
Laura, the reason you chose Gandhi to live with cracked me up! I like the casual conversation, vibe and food in the video. I wish I could eat the feast one day. Besides, I felt so moved that Bez kept saying thanks for the meals that Laura made. The way he appreciated her efforts kind of touching me. BTW, would you please consider to make boxing day or New Year Eve videos as well?
I love this conversation and YES Laura you should be proud of yourself 💪 I didn't know people would do like a rehearsal but for cooking but it's a good idea to do so just a week in advance 👍 I love parsnips. And you didn't mention them cuz you must hate them but I also love Brussel sprouts, cooked by my husband, fried in a pan with a lot of salty butter and a bit of white wine 👌We ALWAYS have a starter in France for the Christmas dinner and very often two or three starters 😂
I hope I can learn more from your in the future
I hope so too!☺️
Wonderful 😊
This reminds me of "The Trip" by Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon.

Merry Christmas, Laura! Merry Christmas, Bez!😀
Wine can only be called Champagne if it comes from the region of Champagne, France, whereas Prosecco is a sparkling wine mostly made in the Veneto region, Italy. Therefore, the simple difference is Champagne growers consider Champagne a “wine of place” that cannot be reproduced anywhere else in the world. However, the method by which each wine is made differs significantly. The Charmat method used for Prosecco involves single fermentation in tank, flowed by a pressurised bottling. By contrast, Champagne is fermented twice with the secondary fermentation conducted in bottle with the addition of yeast and solids that provide the bubbles
Very interesting!! Thank you!
Indeed 😃👍
Thank you :)
'I'm not growing a turkey..' 😂
This is amazing, I wish I could learn the british pronounciation
Feliz año teachers , congratulations from Guatemala .
It' sounds so delicious 😋
Turkey is delicious
Im studiyng from B2 to c1 english and your dialogue helps me a lot....tnx 😊
That’s great Francesco!!!☺️
❤ thanks
I Like your all videos 🌹
Thank you so much 😀
Nghe accent from dzu tôi mắc cười quá đi. Thanks your videos. ❤
The difference between Prosecco and Champagne is that Champagne is literally sparkling wine from Champagne, France. Anything else is not Champagne. Only sparkling wine from Champagne can be called Champagne.
Happy Christmas......
Thanks for this listening practice. I found it really useful!
And sth else: keep schtum? Really? I didn't know this idiom before. "stumm" (same pronunciation) is a German word (for "mute" among other things)
And how speaks speedy gonzalez. The hardest poinz of native speaking is the speed❤
Laura hi again😀😁
Useful conversation but it's so fast for non native speakers to understand and while eating makes it harder . Thanks for video by the way 😊
Made to Help them, basically, get accustomed to the native accent. Otherwise, plenty of formal speech and scripted conversations is available out there on several platforms. 😌
Please can you tell me what were you eating..i really would like to know that. Thanks from morroco 😊
😂😂
💞💛💚 Sweetly raw! or rawly Sweet!! Introducing the food items to audience, initially or at the end of the shot, would be a better idea. 💐💐🏕️🏕️👑👑🎉🎉
Hi, is there a playlist for beginners?
Prosecco is from Italy (not necessarily worse or cheaper) whereas champagne is French and it can only come from the region of Champagne-Ardenne if they want to label it like that.
The first one🤩🎉🎉🎉🎉
I hope you don't mind if I leave 2 comments. First I want to say that I am an American watching your channel so I can learn the standard English accent. I'm basically learning to sound like you, Laura. How creepy is that? *Giggles* Okay anyway, I also want to know in Smashing English are you using Smashing like an adjective, to mean excellent or great, or are you using it as a verb, to mean really attacking English hard and getting it right?
I like the conversation but it's fast further difficult to understand
Bucks fizz 🥂 I only got what you mean when you showed up the bottle😂. Now I want to try it too. 😂
That was alcoholic, right?
Merry Christmas again!😊
Yes it was🥳
I've spent 6 years in Norway and I find that British Xmas food has much in common with the Nordic tradition. They usually have roasted pork(ribbe) or dried sheep ribs(pinnekjot) for the Christmas meal with some sidedish of boiled veggies. To me, coming from Russia, this looks and tastes too basic for such a big holiday. I used to feel akward at Xmas meals in Norway, because I was not enjoying this type of food in the slightest. Having said that, Norway is a great country in all other regards.
Thanks to King Henry VIII, Brits do eat turkey at Christmas. But in my humble opinion, it is more of an American tradition. The turkey is native to our country & an integral part of our unique culture. We usually let our cranberry sauce come to room temperature and serve the turkey up to an hour after removing it from oven, lest the juices run out. That’s how we do, just sayin’. lol
Suggest you to search and read the history written by Mustafa Kemal whose best rival was the Churchill.
I prefer chicken to turkey for my Christmas dinner😂
Ideal conversation for people who don't eat meat 🍖, I'll skip it till the dessert 😘
Oops no trifle, pity.
See you next time.
I am going to be drowned in my own saliva.😂
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
🚨Here in Morocco we are cocking meet and vegetables inside of (tajine) and we eating it together 😂😂😂😂😂

Хватит жрать, когда я смотрю видео.
I don't know guys, I don't think it's a good idea to have a conversation for listeners while you're eating 😐
Before I could remember the name of Gandi, Laura immediately mentioned him and I was like gobsmacked😲🥸
