That was unbelievable!!! I haven't laughed with excitement in a while!!!
This felt like watching their wedding video!
They showed Lena and Max walking down the aisle, kissing and of course the memorable head-shaking hockey clip
Also put some clips from Russian movies to allustate situations they were talking about.
They kept joking throughout the show, in fact there were just 5-6 hockey related questions
.
It starts with Lena saying " New Year is a family celebration and that's why my guest is SKA St Petersburg forward Maxim Afinogenov" :lol: Then it goes:
- Hello, Maxim
- Hello, Lena. Haven't seen each other in a while :d
- We've never celebrated New Year together. I'm on a tournament, you with the team and now for the first time we celebrate together in St Petersburg. Do you like this city already?
- I've been here before for matches, but I didn't have the time for all beautiful places. I'm playing here for 2 seasons now and I started to know the city more, visited theatres, museums, of course thanks to you
.
- ... In general, it's hard to contact Maxim Afinogenov, doesn't give interviews, doesn't say much when he gives, so our show is very lucky that you came
- But you know, everything is due to personal connections :haha:
.....
- You know, our program has a very positive affect on players. Who was injured recovered immediately, who wasn't on the team is now in the starting line up, so I'm hoping this will be good on you.
- I was asking/begging (not sure of the exact verb Max used), but you didn't invite me at all:happy:
- That's completely wrong, it's just today that I could make screen time and that's our New Year's show!
.....
- Max, let's talk about you hobbies. You're an excellent skier, wind surfing, parachute jumping, motorcycling
- Did you forget about tennis???
- Yes, tennis, you're a decent player (Lena gigling adorably)
- I love tennis very much! I remember when I came at Roland Garros with friends to support the Russians. And that's how it ended.
- And everything ended... (cue the wedding clip)
- Do you remember our first date?
- Of course. You in the final of Roland Garros, Paris at night, Champs Elysees, we celebrated a lot the final. Arriving at the hotel at 5 am (not so innocent Lena
) and I see on the window big glasses and ask you "who's this" and you reply "my mom" :haha: And I tell to myself "Ok, we have a problem here" :haha:
- Where else do you spend you holidays?
- Lena, in the last 7 years, I've been to your tournaments only.
- You said it as if you're complaining! Those aren't the worst places - Paris, London, New York.
- Not the worst places (Maxim smirking). I've even managed to get tanned at your matches :lol:
Then they talk about how Maxim studied English in Buffalo, also a funny story
Seriously, that's the most incredible and unexpected thing I've watched in a while. Lena and Max look sooo in love
