1
Hey everybody!
2
Before we get into these really funny moments and bloopers from the Uncharted film, we have a trivia question for you.
3
This one has to do with Uncharted.
4
It's a little bit different than what we normally do, and it's about the first video game.
5
When did the first Uncharted video game come out?
6
This might actually surprise you, and if you get it right, be sure to give you a like in the comments.
7
Now, without further ado, let's get started.
8
Press tour numero dos.
9
Watch out mate, there's a poll there.
10
I wanted to say before we get started that you are my favourite person to interview with.
11
That's really.. that's very nice Tom.
12
Oh, that was very sweet, wasn't it?
13
But Mark, we know that you bought your little dog, Champ, as a surprise present for the family.
14
Now then, how did that go down?
15
You know, it was so bizarre because I'm not good at keeping a secret,
16
and I was telling my children that somebody special was going to be arriving on that particular day, and my wife was the last one to know anything.
17
I wanted to surprise her as well, so all of a sudden, the kids convinced themselves that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were going to be arriving for dinner,
18
which infuriated my wife because she's not prepared for anybody to come over, and I'm like, no, I got a dog
19
and then she was even more upset with me
20
because I didn't I didn't ask for her opinion on what kind of dog to get
21
And but everybody obviously fell in love with the dog right away.
22
He's as cute as he can Look at it Tom
23
So cute He's evil but he's cute He's evil but he's cute You're obviously ripped in the film, you're very in shape.
24
I can't imagine the training you had to do There's not really much to my name It's my confidence, I like that Tom Holland?
25
What's your middle name?
26
Say it Stanley Okay Yeah.
27
Go!
28
Okay.
29
Okay, let's do this.
30
Welcome.
31
Welcome.
32
Uncharted 4, you too.
33
I assume you've played this game.
34
I have played this game.
35
This game was actually my first introduction into the Uncharted world.
36
Okay.
37
As with many people, I played this game on my YouTube channel.
38
I played through the whole thing.
39
Okay.
40
So many people had never seen Uncharted before, and this was kind of the one that...
41
I mean, this is probably the reason why the movie's made.
42
Yeah, I think this game is the one that we took most inspiration from.
43
Right.
44
This game is so cinematic and its story is so adventurous and exciting.
45
Yeah.
46
A lot of this game is what inspired our film.
47
Tom, we know you have a dog.
48
Do you take your dog on set?
49
I do sometimes take her on set.
50
You know, obviously I don't travel with her.
51
Yeah.
52
But if I'm in London, she'll come to set.
53
I remember I took her to, I was shooting this film called A Current War with Benedict Cumberbatch, which was a very serious movie about the invention of the light bulb.
54
And we were shooting this sequence which was supposed to be in a field, but we shot it in a soundstage, and Benedict was giving this massive speech to about 100 extras.
55
And Tess is so well behaved.
56
I can have her on set.
57
She never barks.
58
She doesn't make a noise.
59
And I'm sitting there watching Benedict, and he's crying, and he's giving his heart and soul into this performance.
60
And my dog obviously has some sort of hay intolerance or something.
61
You know how dogs sneeze with every fibre in their body?
62
She was just sneezing and sneezing.
63
And you can see Benedict trying to stay in character, trying to stay with it.
64
And then eventually he was like can someone take that dog out of here, please?
65
I'm so sorry Benny That's my dog, but she was fine.
66
She was in my trailer, and I'm not working.
67
I will There's no one to judge you there.
68
It's not so much judge.
69
It's just I just love being outside I just oh I died you died.
70

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
