I’m sure people mentioned this before, but I think the copper pans on your kitchen walls counts as orange!! 🍊 Nice job repairing AND saving euros.
And one of Anna's grandmother's paintings had oranges in it! :-)
I totally agree
Against popular belief, the blackberry can be trimmed up into a manageable hedge. They will produce more fruit this way, instead of putting their energy into bramble growth.
The bramble tendrils don't produce fruit. They're looking for new ground to make another plant , so they can be trimmed back quite easily. Good luck😁👍🦘
And make new plants. Figure out where you want more.
I have raspberries but I imagine it is the same for blackberries. In spring I trim out about all the old dead wood and about 75% of the green canes. I always have to steal myself to do it - feel like a murderess! - but the crop is much better.
A door should always be fixed by wearing a princess dress 👗 Way to go Ella 👏👏👏
Just need princess safety eye googles...:)
We are all proud of you Phillip! Congrats!
Okay, I caught myself laughing out loud at the way Phillip said, “I know this is a mistake.”
I love watching you and your family! Thank you for sharing.
My favorite moment of all moments!
YAY! Glad to see "Special Guest Star" Nathan. :-)
Nathan's hilarious. He will need his own spin-off show soon.
I love these videos. I know putting your life on the internet can be scary, and I just want you to know that I appreciate seeing it. Thank you for your time and effort.
oh no! Don't get rid of the Christmas tree, please? It is so beautiful.
yes, please! it's so beautiful!!
I can’t believe there are not more people giving this a thumbs up. Keep the Christmas tree!
Keep iiit!
Keep the Christmas tree, please!!
@@BP-yd9vn Agreed!! They need to help protect the beautiful tree. It could be trimmed and look perfect.
Most suspenseful camera repair in the history of, well, camera repair. The music was the perfect accompaniment. Seriously Philipp, Bravo!
Also…gotta give a shout out to Anna’s “helping hand” in the kitchen.
Glad you had the patience to watch it :)
@@HowToRenovateAChateau Who doesn’t love a good mystery?
We gain five screws 😂
It wouldn’t be a Phillip project if he didn’t do it twice! 🤣
Three times, actually ;)

Why haven’t you trebled your subscribers? You deserve far more. You are absolutely one of the most entertaining channels on RUclips xxx
I never really noticed before, it might have been pointed out in a prior video, that the grass area in the front yard looks to be in the shape of a lopsided heart. 💖 Great video, really enjoyed watching! Good job Philipp with the camera & great job Ella on fixing the door plate! Thank you for sharing, take care of yourselves, stay safe! Much love Kathy x
Yes, I love the grassy heart in the entrance!
Yes ... I've noticed it too. Sweet 💚
So I am NOT alone.
I noticed that too.
Are you sure that is a pine tree? It is a conifer but looks much more like a spruce.
You do not have to cut the whole thing down. You could “ skirt” it and cut off the branches
On the bottom several feet. It will still live but clean it up. 🌲
would look super nice at night with fairy lights all over the branches
yes a gorgeous spruce, don't cut it down!!!!!!!!!!
yeah it would be such a shame to cut it. from those aerial shots..the tree looks soo much better. like a homing device for the birds.
Well done Philip, seriously, what patience! Make sure you keep the spare screws just in case you find their place one day! ;)
I believe your "pine" tree to be a Norway spruce. (Picea abies). I actually have several on my property as they were very popular here in the 19th century. Just a note from your friendly neighborhood botanist in Morgantown, WV.
I agree, definitely a Picea rather than a Pinus. It’s a usual mistake to make. It’s common to use the word pine as a generic term for conifers if one isn’t in the know I find. Conifers are difficult to identify, one uses number of needles emerging together, length of needles, spread of needles around the stem, plus cone shape and position. There are good books on the subject. Love all your vlogs Anna and Philippe.
Yup, that's a spruce. I took botany in college, too. Nearly everyone in Calgary, AB seems totally incapable of differentiating between a spruce and a pine. I've somewhat given up correcting them, unless it's a client who has both species in their yards and I need to know which of their trees they are talking about. Note to other Calgarians: probably 90% of the coniferous trees in Calgary are SPRUCE. Pines generally don't do that well here, so they're far less common. We also have Siberian larch - a rare example of deciduous conifer.
I am from Weirton, West Virginia. Went to WVU. Love Morgantown.
Anna, he's a loon, but wildly entertaining. He also has skills. With his skills and talents added to your own, you're lucky to have found and love each other.
Lucky
Loon is not what I would call him, just German and European. Most of the men are completely different from American.
Anna and Philip, are you planning on doing the utility room at the same time you renovate the kitchen? You could put in floor to ceiling linen cupboards and enclose the washer and dryer with the same style cabinets as in the kitchen, tying all the rooms together.
Utility room first and we make it quit simple for financial reasons :)
Just love watching what you and Anna have to share with us every week. I always get a laugh from your cheeky ness.😂
I loved the wrist slap in the kitchen!
@@claudp3407 yes! That was funny.😂
Bravo Phillip! I have never seen you smile so much! Truly amazing! The extra screws and all!😅⭐️📷📹
WELL DONE PHILLIP 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 another skill unlocked , ok im sending my broken camera to the chateau 😝
Can I also send my? Lol I never see it again.
Only if I can keep the screws!
Anna dear. one day I would love to and will come over to your B&B and enjoy that delicious apple pie! And Philip dear fellow, you're a DIY HERO! Repairing a complex delicate piece of electronics yourself! Châpeau to the both of you!!!
Come on Anna🙄 give him a kiss already! Don't just pat him on the back. He did well, he deserves it😂😂
Cooking in the kitchen or the family eating cake in the kitchen, with lighting that reminds me of a Vermeer, looks beautiful. Perhaps the kitchen should be decorated like a Vermeer painting. Or, perhaps everyone could start wearing pearl earrings.
Phillip have you ever thought of doing a week/weekend for filmmaking with guests? Guests could book and pay to stay and learn a little about film making from a pro. And I mean you are amazing and with Anna’s style & artistic sense she could review and rate the progress, even the girls could be judges
Brilliant idea 🎬 ...!!!
Great idea! If I could I surely would book in!
Yasss please!!!
I would absolutely love that!
Yes I would certainly be interested in learning film making. I love Philippe’s style of work, plus have wanted to learn more about film making. Editing too.
…also on the big heavy things… 😂😂😂 you made my day Philip
“A matter of minutes, if not hours.” Hours was my first guess. 🤣
Well done Philip and the crumble looked delicious Anna. Always appreciate Philip's humor and his interactions with Nathan. See you next week 😍😘
Well, that had me chuckling for a while! Anna, I loved the crumble - who says they have to be textbook anyway? I'm pretty sure that the original crumbles were made of leftover fruit and probably stale bread crumbs mixed with a bit of butter, and sugar and spice! Philipp, you never cease to amaze me. I just hope the camera doesn't decide to implode while you're filming because of its missing screws!! Lily and Ella are such cuties, I love seeing them around the chateau and being little girls! Big hugs xx
U went there ?
I do believe Anna blushed when Phillip was proclaiming his dexterity. Very funny. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
Very impressed with the camera “engineering” work! VERY! ☺️
Every week I say, "now, THIS is their best video ever" then, the new video comes out and you have outdone yourselves again.
Thank you bring for smiles and refreshment to so many people.
The best channel on you tube, by far.
Funny...educational...suspenseful...entertaining...beautiful cinematography...and we learned a new recipe. Loved it!
Philipp! I am completely impressed!! You are not only able to handle "big things" with delicacy and verve, but your dexterity and tender touch as you handle such fragile skills that most of us would back away from, are beyond astonishing. I think you even made Anna blush. This is my favourite channel. It has everything; a showcase for skills and determination of human abilities, gardening with plans and after nature derails those plans, wonderful parents, entertaining and intelligent sweethearts for daughters, French language lessons, cookery delights and improvisation, comedy, and of course, Nathan and Benoit. All this and renovating an old and previously crumbling chateau.Thank you both.
My brother calls left over screws 'shoulder screws' - just throw them away over yr shoulder😂
And----for the million dollar question--what will happen when the camera senses the missing 5 screws--will it be during the middle of Philip's next DIY project, when Nathan is being interrogated, when Anna is standing on top of a ladder recording her beautiful handiwork----and the insides of the camera fall out????? These questions will continue to intrigue me and keep me GLUED to RUclips every Sunday--awaiting the TRUTH behind Philip's DIY camera repair....most entertaining channel--way ahead of Netflix!!!
Much better
Thank you so much, Gayle, we'll keep you updated! :)
Congrats Phillip on your masterful repairs!
From your last week's vlog I wondered if you have decided things. I saw an add for a kitchen and there was a section of a wall that had a hammered copper wall section. I'm not an orange color fan (sorry Phillip) but I think some copper could be a good compromise. Hammered copper can be striking.
Only Philip could take a camera apart, mend, and put back together again, and have me watch the whole (boring) exercise. All the time I was willing it to work, so Anna would be happy and so very proud of him! Hurrah! He did it! His lovely face when Anna praised him, so cute! What a great team! Such a wonderful couple!
Thanks for your patience!
seriously. . . YAAY Philip!! I would have never had the courage to take a camera apart and attempt a repair. very impressive.
Wow! Philip your patience is admirable. ❣️

As usual, a delightful video! Congratulations on repairing the camera, a true tour de force! The crumble looked great, and I would have loved to share it with you! What a pleasure to share some of your activities! Please keep these delightful videos coming!
Anna, Philip did a great job fixing the camera. Give him a good kiss please! If nothing else!
please keep us updated on the destiny of the surplus screws
Well Done Philip. RUclips instruction videos can really be impowering; plus they can help you save a ton of money. So yeah, excellent work on repairing that complex camera.
Please keep us informed on which of the five screws turns out to be integral to your camera's operation and thanks for another smile inducing episode.
I will :)
At last….. a kiss from Anna! Bravo Philip….such patience!
So funny. Phillip, I so admire your patience and determination. Well done and very impressive. The crumble looks delicious! The grounds are so beautiful. I love the aerial shots and music. Beautiful family-thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful week.
Anna, I must say you are so blessed. Philip is not only charming in the kitchen but he knows his ingredients!! And he can fix a camera!!!! Love watching you two....um, four!
Well done!! So much patience and still a sense of humour!
Phillip inspires as he does patience testing jobs that are slow and boring. I need more that in my life.
Hoorah, Phillip! I am impressed and would have surely been spouting a few words that the children and polite company should not hear! Anna’s crumble looked good too…a little extra granola never hurt anyone! YUM! 🙂👍
All I can say is “well done” both of you wild and crazy guys!
Phillip you do make me laugh as usual. Well done for fixing your camera bravo... less the 5 screws 😂 I make my crumble with oats but... I do ad the other ingredients which is crumble based. Well done any way Anna. Awh Nathan does not like anything about his college 🤔Loved watching as normal xx
These weekly videos of yours are masterpieces!
You should get a cute bicycle with a basket Anna to move around the grounds when you collect your flowers and berries 😊
“A bit more.” Loooool Philip I’m VERY proud and SUPER impressed!!! Very attractive and enviable engineering skills!
Am smiling and laughing all the way through, Nathan’s straight face, and little Ella already a carpenter I. The making 😂🤣😁😁
My first comment ever, and it's because of your daughter Ella, such an adorable laugh at her deliberate sabotage. Actually you all seem to be beautiful foils for each other. Very natural, very loving and I assume very good at editing. Like my Aunt says, keep going, I wish you guys to keep going.
Thanks a lot! Warm regards from Normandy!
You are truely Unique Phillip. Well done 👍 You make me Smile 😊 all the time when watching you, with your quirky comments🤴Anna is such a wonderful, loving Mum and caring woman, also a loving wife to you. 💁♀️ You should be proud of her. “Anna made you a beautiful dessert 🧁 hehe.. Cheers from OZ. Luv Sharon C. Xxx
I have replaced the screens on broken phones, but the camera surgery is in a different league!
"so, you're basically selling me a müsli, telling me it's a crumble". "yeah, but". And the part where you're fishing for praise for fixing the camera, Phillip - priceless.
I'm dying here. 😂😂😂😂💕
If you want to save the oak tree you need to do it in the early autumn, September time is perfect, end of the growing season but it gives the root system time to settle before hopefully any frost or snow comes. You need to make sure you give the rootball plenty of depth and width. A tree like an oak will have roots as deep as the tree is high and as wide too. If the tree is six feet tall so will the roots be, as long as the tap root which is the biggest thickest root is more or less intact then you can trim back the rest of the roots by a third and it shouldn’t harm the tree. Dig a nice big hole it can be wider than the rootball but try and keep it to the same depth the tree originally was. Fill in the hole, firm down and use a wooden stake to support the tree until it establishes itself. Water it really well, if it doesn’t rain then water it well each day for at least two weeks. Hopefully it should survive and come spring you should have lovely bright green shoots appear.
Thank you so much Sarah for those precious tips!!!
Did the oak transplant succeed? I’ve always been told they are difficult to move after the first year seedling because of the need to keep the deep taproot intact.
Oh Philipp! You’re just amazing, clever, skilled, so talented..
(what else had you written that
I had to say here? 😆)
But, honestly, well done 😊
❤️oh you are so fun to watch 🤗 love your family, thank you for sharing 🥰
What a lovely family, full of talent !!
Philip you are absolutely refreshing and so darn funny!!! :)
Taking on repairing the camera…wow Philip..it seemed like a mindfield of sensitive equipment..not an easy task..your daughter has taken on the qualities of mending..very confident with holding a screwdriver and doing just as you did with the camera and got it done..yeah..❤..happy days..🌞
Love watching your vIdeos! Like watching Anna’s expressions as she’s listening to you.
Impressive work Philipp! My husband did the same kind of thing (tutorial, 2-3 times screw/unscrew, etc.) with a Playstation once, it was nerve-racking! I´ve noticed Anna is such a proper lady, she´s quick to blush at any whiff of innuendo, it´s very cute and English of her! She must have had a bit of a hard time in dirty-minded Paris!! 💖
On of the more important parts of filming is the management of light and you do it masterfully. The sequence in the kitchen was lovely. I watch the opening sequence just to see the image of one of your daughters clinging to Phillips back while he is “working” lol, it’s so precious. Hope you all have a great week.
Wow! That was an epic feat of re engineering there Philipp! Impressive. Loved the crumbola recipe Anna... Winging it works very well a lot of the time! Love that Ella is already getting a franglais accent 😍
What would you do for blackberries if you cleared these out????? Find a place where a bramble hedge would be an asset - to stop thieves breaking in or something and pop a row of ripe blackberries in the ground. You won't have to wait long for more to pick. Bees love the flowers so hives near the hedge would be a great fit.
I think Anna needs a slightly larger cutting board. Maybe a Christmas gift Phillip!
Philip you are very talented, fixed a camera! Congratulations! Anna your an awesome partner! You make great vlogs!
Phillip, you are such a brat! You know exactly how to pull at our heartstrings, but will it work.....stay tuned! I love your comment about the oranges in a bowl Anna. You two are such a treat to watch and your girls are so cute and obviously very smart and practical.
You two go together like blackberry crumble and ice cream both a wonderful combination
I am incredibly impressed!!!! well done Philip!!!
TIP: when following UT tutorials print screen captures of critical stages and place the related parts on it. You can then reference the vid and parts involved. You wont have as many spares at the end.
You mean just 2 pieces missing!
Love these guys. So fun to watch 😀❤️
You guys are awesome! I was totally influenced by both of you to try things I'm not positive I'm capable of and to not take myself too seriously. You had me laughing out loud. You influencers you...😅 You brighten my day. Thanks 🌻
Philip and Anna were especially entertaining and funny this week. I had a smile on my face the whole 26 minutes.
Your camera repair is amazing.
Well done Philip !!!
You were the ‘star’ in that vlog
I really enjoy these posts. Philip, you have such a great off- the-wall sense of humor.
Ahhh please don’t cut down the big evergreen! It’s beautiful & I’m sure you could tidy up the brambles below as others mentioned. Love your channel though & your wee helpers 😊 Your patience on the camera repair was outstanding!
Those peptalks for Nathan are sooo lifechanging 😂😂😂
GOOD JOB PHILIP! I could never have done that. Too many parts. Well done.
Well done Phillip. I was holding the brearh the whole time. You have a lovely family
Phillip is sooo funny! Love it. Sooo clever to fix a camera! well done.
Successful completion of your projects. Although Anna’s crumble was much more technically difficult, you did good too Phillip. 😁
Maybe Philip you should wear Princess costume when you repair things 😝
Go Lady Ella❤❤ and fabulous job fixing the camera 🎉except for the extra screws😁❤😊❤
I always wanted a Sony A7, as I currently use a Sony RX100 M1 since 2013, but I never thought it was so jam packed with ....components. There isn't room to drop a pin there. Thanks Philipp for opening the belly of the beast and for allowing us to share the moment :D
My favourite part is when Anna smacks Phillip’s hand while she is making black berry crumble! Well done Anna for keeping Phillip under control. Phillip You amaze me with your ability to get the camera to work again, hope it doesn’t come apart with the missing screws, I did notice some tiny black dots on your paper and thought oh no .😂🇨🇦
Fantastic work on the camera, Philip! I definitely do not have the patience. Sneaky Anna with her false crumble! 😆 It looked delicious.
Congratulations Philippe, you fixed it! Anna, your crumble looks delicious!
You did it Phillip!! Congratulations!!!🎊🎉🍾🎈
Hi from Texas! I love watching your videos, each if you are just precious!
Supper super dooper proud of you, also the crumble looked popping! You're both stars lol.
