Drama Dropout Jack Harries on Jamie Oliver
Adorably awkward Jack Harries makes raisins dance for Jamie Oliver
Former Bristol Drama student and YouTube sensation, Jack Harries, was on Jamie Oliver’s Food Tube last night.
He and twin brother Finn joined Jamie Oliver for his live YouTube show (Jack’s wearing the blue shirt).
Watch him take a bow when Jamie introduces him (01:45) and be the first to try Jamie’s personalised new drink, ‘Jamie Oliver’s Twist’ (28:25).
The twins also help experiment with bouncing raisins in soda water (1:02:15) – and Jack sneakily munches on some of what he calls “dancing raisins”.
Remember his Hiatt Baker bedroom video that went viral in 2012? Jack became hot property around Bristol for his first few months as a fresher.
But he dramatically dropped out a year ago – apparently his Drama degree and YouTubing was just too much for him to manage.
Since then, he’s been ‘travelling’ and ‘filmmaking’ with Finn, a fellow YouTuber who dropped out of Leeds Uni at the same time. In the past year, they’ve also posed for Tatler and rubbed shoulders with Burberry. Not too bad for an un-graduate!
