00:00Guys it's lovely to see you. This is so bingeable. I said to myself I'm not going to do it. I'm just
00:05going to watch one episode to get a feel for it. I've been up all night. I've not slept. What have
00:10you done to us guys? How many did you get by the way? Four. That's a nice one. I know but I feel
00:18like I've just went right through it but it is bingeable. Did you feel like that when you started
00:23reading the script? Oh yeah. Yeah definitely. It was so bingeable. I got the first three and I was
00:28like I need to know who did this. Yeah. And then I binge when I got the show. I binge all in one
00:35night as well. Yeah I was really glad that Netflix actually are doing it this way because sometimes
00:42like with a show like this if they release them one week after another like it just that you're
00:47right this is this is a binger. We'd go into a breakdown. There's been a way. Yeah. Listen we
00:53need to talk about something that's really iconic and that I think is actually maybe going to get
00:58picked up. I have a feeling I know what you're gonna say. I hope we're on the same page but the
01:02dance sequence for the titles. I was a bit confused in the first episode because I was like right now
01:10they're dancing where's this come from and then when I watched the second one I was like looking
01:13out for it because I was like I'm pretty sure that was the title. How does it feel knowing that you
01:19guys are like iconic dancers? I know it's like I am living my dream. This is this is what I was
01:25always meant to do like I it's like we're in like Mamma Mia you know. High school musical
01:32Mamma Mia. Did you know about that? Ishan aside there was a lot of begrudgery towards doing that
01:41dance. Oh don't exclude me from that list. The problem was it was a surprise attack okay so
01:49Suzanne our director we were doing the reshoots because it took ages to shoot the show because
01:54of the strikes and blah blah blah. That was the strike for us actually. We had to go back over
02:00like Christmas or whatever to finish it and we get this like email from Suzanne being like
02:07happy Christmas everybody here's a TikTok dance you guys need to learn and you'll be performing
02:12when I see you next and everyone the group chat blew up. Did you get this email from
02:19Suzanne? Everyone was protesting no way man no way man I'm not doing it I'm not doing it.
02:26Actually it'd be really funny to look back over that. Oh my gosh and it was like right up until
02:33the last minute but ironically enough that's that's what we wrapped the show on and I think
02:37everyone was too thrilled to. I had I had the time of my life I was like this is my moment I'm gonna
02:42be a huge star once everybody's. It was it was also like a particularly like a joy to watch
02:48all the hyper masculinity like melt down into the sand in front of eyes. I was like
02:52this is kind of fun. How long did it take you to learn the choreography because I'm quite badly
02:57learning choreography once I know it I'm like in it but I find it hard to back it up. Well
03:02they sent out the video as you've said like a week or so in advance and we pretty much all
03:08unanimously didn't watch it as a quiet protest basically and then it basically we had two
03:15sessions to practice it and the first one was a disaster by the way like it was so bad oh my god
03:23no not the first take the first practice. I don't know what you're talking about man.
03:30And then once we came to do it on the day it was great. Did you feel a bit like in Egypt
03:33when you were like you know whenever you were practicing it trying to learn it like what are
03:37we doing? No I felt like the star I was born to be. I did not get into this business.
03:48She was the dancing emoji like the Spanish flamenco like that was her and then she was
03:52channeling that. It was like we were shooting a music video they had cranes they had everything
03:56I was like this is like to be a pop star. Yeah it was intense. Honestly like the show is amazing
04:02and not to take away from how bingeable it is but it was my highlight like honestly when I saw it
04:07again I thought I didn't just imagine that. I'm just tired. I did a long weekend of trying to get
04:13away. I thought you know maybe I'm just exhausted. You know what I have I have good news for you
04:18because you're gonna see it two more times in episode five and six. I wasn't. What was it like
04:23when you actually came to film that though like were you all quite sheepish like? No we were we
04:27were down and dirty. I was ready to go. We were like this is make or break guys. Yeah. If we don't
04:32see each other again and if this is career ending it's been real. But we also weren't told like what
04:37it what exactly it was for like Suzanne was like just learn it and we're doing it and you're doing
04:41it and we were like so we left being like what is that? Like what where is that gonna go in the show?
04:48No one was in character. Everyone was just like why are we dancing at this wedding?
04:56Which is kind of amazing to open a show with like a bunch of actors not in their character at all
05:01just really confused. Honestly the more I learn about this the more I love it. I know it's kind of
05:06great. It's pure chaos. Yeah. Was there a point where you just. It's liberating actually. Yeah yeah. I want it like when are you
05:12gonna put the tutorial out because I would like to learn them. Oh I think that's probably Netflix's
05:17plan is like this becomes like a TikTok sensation. Also Meghan Trainor gave us her song. Yeah that's
05:24so that's a new Meghan Trainor song. See the more I find out. I know and then someone said to me but
05:30what if that's her music video? I was like oh my gosh that would be amazing. Would you
05:36would you enjoy that? I'm all over it yeah. At this point I've made peace with it. Yeah I feel like these
05:41two are up for it and you're like get me out. We have like two and a half minutes more with the
05:47music to shoot in that case so if you want to do it we're game. Listen Meghan. Yeah. Get it sorted.
05:54The people have spoken. That is what we want. Now Liv has kind of shared quite a lot in the production
06:00notes and he basically shared that you guys would hang out on the beach and have parties. Can you
06:05confirm or deny? Yeah well we would hang out at each of those houses. We wouldn't hang out on the beach.
06:10Yeah I was like he was hanging out on the beach? Yeah. Maybe he hangs out on the beach. We had those invites.
06:17Who was he partying with himself? We didn't get the private jets and we didn't get the beach.
06:21We all had really nice houses out in Cape Cod and we were there. You know it was the quiet
06:30season initially and then it kind of built into the summer season a little bit but
06:34we used to hang out on the weekends, go to each other's houses, you know get fire pits going.
06:38Yeah it was a good time. The guys would cook. Yeah the girls would drink, the guys would cook.
06:46Very 2024 which was really great. Yeah oh and the girls would axe throw.
06:54We actually did loads of axe throwing. And bowling yeah. And it was like a dream party like honestly.
06:59But also we went whale watching. Yeah. No there was wheels I'm sure at some point. Has anyone seen
07:06wheels at some point? Oh yeah. Yes that's because we said you've got to go whale watching with the
07:10camera and film. Yeah. There's the most amazing whale watching which I dragged them all to once
07:15and everyone was like oh it's gonna take ages if we're not seeing any whales. And I was like just
07:20hold tight and then we saw what like 10, 15 humpback whales like 50 dolphins right there.
07:27It was the most mind-blowing thing. You did it twice. I did it three times. But what's fun is
07:33you can go on the boat and there's a bar on the boat. Stop it. So you can drink and watch whales
07:39and then there's a drag show. No. When you get into the harbor there's lobster,
07:47the lobster pot, lobster rolls and then you go to a drag show. It's like
07:50the most amazing thing. The drag show was insane. Yeah. We got whales and a drag show in on the same
07:56day. I feel you're winding me up. That's just not fair to God. No that was like it was probably
08:00maybe one of the best days of my life. I can understand that. I don't know how I feel about
08:04whales because they scare me but dolphins I want to like jump in. No whales are incredible. Have you
08:09seen dolphins? Oh dolphins were just supplementary like they were just like sprinkles on the top.
08:15Provincetown. P10. That's what it's called. Listen I'm loving the accents but obviously in this it's
08:21like proper American. It's like high society like I love it but like did you stay in it or did you
08:28kind of come in and out of it? No. I kind of wish like maybe I'm biased because I'm Celtic but I
08:39kind of wish we just kept your characters Irish now because the dulcet tones it's.
08:44Well you can watch Flora and Son if you want to be an apple. Stop plugging an apple in there.
08:51Yeah we're in a movie called Flora and Son which is an apple.
08:54And we're completely Irish in that. You'll love it. Right that's added to my list.
09:03Now listen Nicole Kidman the first time I met her I was just like
09:07she's otherworldly isn't she? I know. What was it like that first time you met her?
09:12Insane. I had my pants down.
09:14I don't know why though. You know what's amazing is he actually did it.
09:24And by this point we had all gotten like really close because there was like
09:29there was like nowhere to go you know we were hanging out every weekend we'd been shooting
09:33for like five six weeks and he was wearing some kind of costume but he had put like trousers over
09:39his costume it was like you were in like pajamas or boxers or something and he was like look at
09:43these costumes look at this stupid boxers whatever and then we were all like ha ha ha and then in
09:49walks Nicole Kidman we were like yeah. How did she react? She didn't she just didn't. She acted
09:56as if she just didn't see anything. Feeling up Nicole we understand. She is also absolutely
10:05gas as well by the way. Yeah. She's so funny but she she has the driest sense of humor ever which
10:11is the best. Yeah. For Irish people or Scottish people. Yeah. Oh it's sublime. Throw an Aussie in there and it's a party.
10:18My mascara's actually running from laughing at that. That was so funny. Guys thank you so much and
10:24please please please my final request is just to get the tutorial out. I want to learn the moves.
