Flora is horrid *indeed!* Alice is probably only friends with her because her mum forced her on her. Glad that Alice told Gemma that she is still her best friend *no matter what.* Wish I had a friend like that in my childhood.
Alice should have said something to her mother. She plainly wanted her and Gemma to cut the cake. It was her cake given to her by Gemma and she should decide who cuts it, not Karen.
Flora cut the cake because the mum thought she was the most responsible person with the knife. She didn’t trust Gemma or Alice with a knife. Theatre is why flora cut the cake. It’s a bit easier to understand these things from the book.
This made me cry so much! I totally remember watching this when I was around 5 or 6! I was obsessed! I have the best friends book, the best friends audio book, the film and the Alice & Gemma dolls!!!
AmeliaXxx ' I read it like five years ago then found it about two years later and was very happy but my older sister read it when she was younger. She also met JW the lucky thing
This show is very nostalgic to me I watched it when I was a kid and now I'm a adult/teen it brings me tears I wish more shows were made like this these days
flora and gemma in alice's room is like when your boyfriend is visiting and your ex who is also your best friend shows up and its like "errrr.... so where you from?"
ItsStaceyGrant same here she reminds me of my worst ever enemy, this girl called Holly. One time I was with two of my friends and she came over to us and picked up a slice of pizza my friend was holding and threw it in her face just because she was friends with me. I ended up kicking her in the shin and she started screaming like a child
I can't abide Alice's mum (Karen). Gemma can't do no right in her eyes. Gemma also made that cake for Alice as well & she doesn't let her cut it. *COW!*
5:59 just noticed that I only live 10-15 minutes away from where this was filmed in South London, I also saw a few scenes being filmed local to me in this show😅 if I’m correct, those block of flats would be Morris Walk Estate, which sadly aren’t around anymore due to the council neglecting them and building new apartments there after demolition. I had lovely memories in that area visiting family friends, hence why my ears perked up when I saw this scene as it looked really familiar to me.
14:51 Alice should of had *the final say* who cuts the cake as that was made *especially* for her! Not to mention is she is *already* suffering from complete piggy-in-the-middle.
LOVE the ending!! It's so so much happier than the book ending. Christmas Day is a defo day where you should be inviting friends over to come spend some time with you!!
I've read the book and I loved it as well as this series I think the character flora is a very rude girl but I think Jemma and Alice are two grateful wonderful girls P.s I'm sure the person playing flora is very nice
i think Flora could have been worse but she is still pretty brutal as she is, the thing that bothers me is how rude Alices mum is, but apart from that i think the series are amazing and have a really good moral, the part that i adored was the ending were Alice waits for Gemma it brought a tear to my eye!
Karen is just, well, selfish. In this and the book. I get the feeling that she forced Alice to make the *right* friends that she wanted her to have and seemed incredibly domineering. You *can't* pick your daughter's friends. *People are people.* I would never make friends with anyone that was forced on me. If Alice desperately wanted Gemma to be her best friend, she should have understood it. New Boyfriend, new life in Scotland etc. I get Gemma was quite a unruly, big-mouthed wild child who made some terrible decisions, but couldn't she have gone about it in a different way? But on the bright side, this has a much happier ending than the book.
8:15 *Wise words, Grandad.* PS: Grandad shouldn't be drinking punch if he's driving afterwards. And where are Flora's parents whilst she is at Alice's house?
I kinda feel sorry for biscuits cause they made his cake and gemma sloped it in floras face what a waste of cake and If gem told buscits what she done he'd be hurt
@@frankiselby1234 If I was Gemma after all this, I would have gone all out Jane Eyre and downright told her "I'll never call you "Auntie Karen" again" as she left, and vowed to it.
It's shows how snobbish and waspish Flora is when says she to Gemma "I bet you don't even to know what it means.", when it is plain herself doesn't know either.
I love Gemma's grandad! He's like a father-figure to her.
I saw ur other comments
flora is the worst. like if you agree
Uuhfgghyujj
I understand
Hey my names kayla
Kayla Girl yup no wonder she’s a type of butter she slips around bugging ppl
Penguin girl it’s not a real thing that’s happening plus this is just acted out we are only talking about the character not the actual girl

same
Yeah Gemma is a true friend
@@ajith8245 So is Alice.
It's not fair how flora gets to cut the birthday cake when it's not even FLORAS birthday
Abi BLOX exactly and Gemma was the one who made the cake so she should decide who cuts it!
I got confused when I say the like because I thought I said I should cut the cake because my name is Gemma too!🤣
Alice should have said something to her mother. She plainly wanted her and Gemma to cut the cake. It was her cake given to her by Gemma and she should decide who cuts it, not Karen.
I agree....its not her birthday cake, its Alices and Gemmas,s because Biscuits helped her made it.
Flora cut the cake because the mum thought she was the most responsible person with the knife. She didn’t trust Gemma or Alice with a knife. Theatre is why flora cut the cake. It’s a bit easier to understand these things from the book.

She is in the book
Loha xx me too, in the book she's got long blonde hair

In the book she was. The film changed a lot from the book.
This version of Flora is even more annoying than the one in the book.
Very true
missylissy200 nah I think the book one is worse
Yep
I think Alice's mum is most annoying
I hate Karen the most. In the book and in this. It plain she forced Flora on Alice.
This made me cry so much! I totally remember watching this when I was around 5 or 6! I was obsessed! I have the best friends book, the best friends audio book, the film and the Alice & Gemma dolls!!!

I don't like flora she's mean and she deserves to be locked up in jail

Dude she is like 8 your only aloud to go to jail at the age of 10
Lol, I don’t think she’s committed a crime severe enough for a jail sentence 😂

I like how Alice just knows what Gemma is doing
Gemma: her name is flora

That cracked me up

Yeah cause everybody relates to that
Idk if it's concerning that you know what that feels like lol
*Why is Flora even there?* And why isn't at least one of her parents in Alice's house with her? It is like Karen invited her over to spite Gemma.
Flora reminds me of my worst enemy cody
It's stacey grant : who is cody and why do u hate her
same i hade this girl called Logen she is so fat i bet she carnt fite through the gate now

Poor Biscuits. Another one of his cakes ruined.
so glade they reunited
Darcy Chamberlain kjl
In the book, they don't. At least not like this. It's quite a sad ending.
Am i the only person who cried when they go reunited at the end its so cute
I did XD
I think granddad is looking good for his age.
Some people become grandparents at an youngish age. Or are just blessed with good health/looks.
Last Christmas I gave you my heart but the very next day you sold it on ebay
This year to save from tears I'll give it to some one on tinder
Love this movie watched it bout 10x now

Me and my best friend Keisha love this book we don't stop talking About the book

Whereabouts in Scotland was this filmed?
I hate flora
she's so annoying
I was so happy when Alice moved back
Yeah she's spiteful 😒
I read this comment before the end :'(
ya i hate flora to
I know now I got an idea for this xmas I rellly want to see my best freind I really miss her.!!!
Belinda Cooper WELL I WAS SCROLLIMG THROUGH THE COMMENT SECTION AND U JUST RUINEEEDDD IT OMGGG thanks. 😂😂😂
The ending makes me want to cry! It's so sweet! I love it so much! :)
I think they've casted really well for this movie
The part when Flora and Gemma were arguing always made me laugh.
Flora is so different in the movie than in the books.
Clea de Klerk yeah I agree
I seem to remember she was curly blonde and from an upper-class English expat family like Alice was. Not flat out Scottish like here.
THE BEST MOVIE IN HISTORY
Funny to think those girls are both 24 this year.
woaaaah
ScottieGirl20 no they aren't
no, alice is 25
There both 25 now and the characters alice and Gemma would be 22/23 done the maths
Their birthday might not be on the same day , thats just in the movie
so do they both stay and does Alice come back from Scotland and moved back to her old house?
yeah she doea
Yes
I think she just visited not moved back
No! You’re wrong, Alice stays there but they write letters and are still best friends. Alice does not ever move back! 😠
Chill
Out of the 4episodes on this, this is my fave
that margerine derserved it
Margarine Hair
*Tunnocked it!*
14:51 Alice should of had *the final say* who cuts the cake as that was made *especially* for her! Not to mention is she is *already* suffering from complete piggy-in-the-middle.
so sweet better than the book
Books are always better than the movie
+xxxGalaxy _Girlxxx yes

I love Biscuits and Gemma! They're so funny.

Christmas Day is a defo day where you should be inviting friends over to come spend some time with you!!
What happened to Alice at the end
Did she move back to London or stay in Scotland 🏴
She moved back in the movie!
She stayed in Scotland in the book 😊
@@Xsiant29 They didn't move back in this. Just visited Gemma for the Christmas holidays.
I loved the episodes of that
So lovely to see this again. Thank you so much for uploading. This has an even better happy ending than in the book :).
To me: the ending here was better, but overall the book was better.
Gemma is a fun friend,CRAZY FUN!!!
Omg flora is such an idiot. Little sassy idiot...
AGREED!
I think the word you're looking for is bitch... Lol
Flora is a nasty little ''best friend-thief''
+Fan Page yes

brought tears to my eyes all 4
The end was so cute❤❤
I loved it !
I cried so much this is so touching ;( :D
I prefer Fat Larry to this Larry and Laura or Lara or whatever it is
Yh me too!
Candy Vexilla yh
I loved that
FLORA MAKES ME SO MAD
*More like Karen does to me!*
That's disgusting
No it's sexy
no it's not
It's pole dancing 😂😂😂
This makes me cry when Alice moved to Scotland
im crying
Flora is so horrible!!! And so is Alice’s mother!
Karen is like Dolores Umbridge and Flora is like Pansy Parkinson.
My best friend left over six years ago to Australia (I live in the UK)
Have you seen her since?
this was amazing!! it was made before I was born lol
lol Gemma at 8:18: whassupp

So good
Justo en mi infancia esta peli, tantos años buscándola y por fin la encontré, aunque en inglés pero algo es algo🥺❤️❤️
I don't like Flora
Or Karen.
15:10 Flora's face though.
My best friend moved to France, I live in egland. It was two years ago, I'm not upset about it anymore
Ella TMG I know the feeling, my best friend moved from Bucks to Cambs a year after I met her and it took me a while to come to terms with it
Are you guys still friends?
My best friend moved from England to Norway 3 years ago we don’t talk anymore. 5 years..
My best friend went to live with her 👵. I don’t have any friends now.Oh gosh I am so sad 🙃
Do you two still keep in touch at all?
It's only occurred to me now that Gemma's actress looks kinda like Sophia Grace
this movie is so different than the original book but at least it has really beautiful happyend and it makes me so happy!
I havnt read the book but i love this movie😊😊😊
READ THE BOOK IT'S MY FAVE BOOK YOU MUST READ IT!
The book is more realistic and sadder.
8:15 *Wise words, Grandad.* PS: Grandad shouldn't be drinking punch if he's driving afterwards. And where are Flora's parents whilst she is at Alice's house?
Flora got what she deserves 🎂🎂🎂😤😤😤
Good show
this is really good I didn't expect that
I find it funny when the grandad gets the elder lady in the car lol
I like francesca. she pretty anyone agree she deserves friends if only flora was nice
What's precocious
Idk
Hate flora
*Screw Flora!* She's only friends with Alice because Karen forced it.
"Precocious" means too mature/advanced. Here, it's a bit like a child's version of telling someone that something is "slutty", "damning".
I love this movie but book is better, go Jacqueline Wilson!😜😜
The book was more realistic.
I live this I have just whatched all of it I cried on all of them but the ending I love

I loved that film thanks
I Love Alice (Poppy Rogers)😍
We loved it! Lucy and dad xxx

emotional
I don’t want to sound greedy or anything but I would’ve eaten biscuits cakes. What a waste of food!! 😂
