Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

We surprised John Cena with Gifts!

A homemade banoffee pie is a fairly personal starting point for a celebrity encounter. In the comments on "We surprised John Cena with Gifts!", viewers are discussing how Josh and Ollie followed it up with a piggy bank, with several suggesting the idea deserves to become wrestling merchandise.

The gift upload was JOLLY's most-watched new release of the week, reaching roughly 1.6 million views. Cena also returned for "We had Thanksgiving Turkey with John Cena!", extending a connection that has already produced the channel's widely watched breakfast encounter with Cena and Idris Elba. Some viewers now have another guest pairing in mind: Cena and Jason Momoa.

Across four uploads, the menu stretched well beyond turkey. "Benny Blanco tries Jellied Eels for the first time!" put the music producer in front of a particularly British specialty. Meanwhile, "British Highschoolers try Michelin star food for the first time!" introduced the students to fine dining with Simon Rogan and the Aulis team. That episode is sponsored by Uber Eats.

The Aulis visit drew nearly half a million views in its opening thirteen hours and currently has the strongest daily momentum, followed by the turkey meal and the gifts. It's a fresh setting for the first-taste format that has taken JOLLY's schoolers through biscuits and gravy, American snacks and Texas brisket.

The channel gained subscribers over the week, though its current daily viewing is below its usual level. Its weekly view gain was the largest among the nearby food channels with comparable totals available. For Josh and Ollie, this was a week of serving British food to an American guest and letting British students discover a rather different side of their own country's cooking.
