David & Geraldine's Intense Brussel Sprout Competition | The Vicar of Dibley

[@ryanlemay6296]

I want it known that this bit is partly why I like brussel sprouts now.

[@eclair9]

This was one of the first Vicar of Dibley episodes I ever saw. I think I laughed for a month afterwards. Freaking hilarious!!! Dawn French is superb!!

[@WolfieMcMuffin]

I love when Hugo brings in "The Winner's Reward!" and it's a mountainous Christmas pudding! XD

[@tommyandrewd]

Makes me laugh every Christmas… and the many other times I watch this episode throughout the year

[@harrywithanh]

Best way to cook sprouts: ~Slice them really thinly ~Drizzle some oil over them ~Chuck then in the bin and open a bottle of wine

[@callumhardy5098]

Nah! Brussel sprouts are delicious!

[@CoRLex-jh5vx]

I hear skipping the first two steps is pretty good too

[@SepticPeg]

RIP Gary Waldhorn My favorite scene in the VOD

[@Shinx990]

Rest of peace David, oddly this was the first scene I thought of when I found out.

[@carolynmurtaza1180]

It's her facial expressions that make it so funny. I love sprouts but must still have a bit of crunch

[@Knappa22]

These were traditional British ones I think i.e boiled for about four hours!

[@carolynmurtaza1180]

@@Knappa22 you boil for about 20 - 30 mins only. 4 hours and they turn to mush

[@Knappa22]

@@carolynmurtaza1180 Yes I know. It was hyperbole. Overcooked sprouts at Christmas are a national joke in the UK.

[@sirjedisentinel]

Cut sprouts in half. Toss with some bacon grease (& some chopped bacon), and a very small splash of soy sauce. Stick in a baking ban and bake until slightly browned and crispy.

[@howardkerr8174]

That actually sounds like it could be appetizing. I always think cooked sprouts smell and taste like soap.

[@Jennythecatgirl]

I like the sound of that I’ve only had them twice in my life, and they weren’t too bad either I don’t know what all the fuss is about 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@rebacorddesignstudio7470]

Michael McIntyre calls them fart balls!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@bowmaj8666]

"Just wait one cotton picking minute here! I think perhaps I could manage a couple more after all!" I love that line, and how it's delivered. It's like she both really wants to help Hugo get one over on his father, but at the same time really doesn't want to because she knows that she's got another Christmas dinner to get through! Just hilarious. Also, another great David moment. It shows a more sillier side to him that we don't usually see, plus it's nice that after this contest, he actually seems quite nice to her when he announces "bring out the winner's reward!" Almost like he was expecting her to beat him.

[@ElaineJones-it5gb]

I could eat 100 Brussel Sprouts. This competition is too easy

[@emilinebelle7811]

Me too. Love them. But I understand why others don’t.

[@Annie1962]

Steam brussel sprouts. Add butter a little milk and a sprinkling of nutmeg . yum

[@OccyDaBoss]

no

[@RosieLee777]

Watching Gladiators the whistle bit always reminds me of this.

[@michaelsereno1497]

Classic scene. Always hilarious.

[@teficalledlittlebird]

My favorite episode, hilarious as hell

[@vickies6847]

They aren’t my favorite vegetable, but roasted with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper is pretty tasty

[@charliebank5077]

Mmm I’ll try that

[@oxorox972]

Steamed with butter, salt and pepper..... pure deliciousness.

[@oxorox972]

Roasted sounds srumdillyicious.

[@jovetj]

I love Brussels sprouts! (And Dawn French!)

[@supernovagirl5741]

Same she'd get it here

[@Matthew-bu7fg]

Of all the Christmas dinner they made for this episode and apparently the only thing Dawn French got to eat were the sprouts.

[@RachelParker-1977]

I must purchase this program.

[@Broadwaybuff-pi1qg]

Brava, Dawn. Comedy genius. Lucille Ball couldn't have handled that better!

[@GeoffreyBronson]

I love brussel sprouts, I'd win just because I enjoy the victory farts afterwards.

[@elisekuby2009]

I wonder how many sprouts both of them consumed during the filming? They must have been sick to death of them....

[@666kismett]

Brilliant, but Brussel sprouts eewwwww

[@gabbyhyman1246]

Absolutely. Smells horrible and tastes like defeat, even with butter.

[@shirleybridge3601]

Watching the weight lose ad. Hurry up, who, how? To late hit the skip it button.

[@gabbyhyman1246]

The odor is like animal water and, at its best, it's but a delivery mechanism for butter.

[@melanietoth1376]

I love Brussels (I hated them as a kid) I could definitely eat my weight in them. Lol

[@lemay1973]

Too funny

[@margaretpokorny103]

It's always funny bits but never the whole thing!

[@tozzilil]

Margaret Pokorny it’s called copyright

[@shivaunwhite1077]

The complete series is on Stan.😀

[@howardkerr8174]

I hate Brussels Sprouts and have always hated them, I am not crazy about boiled cabbage either. Probably the only vegetables that I don't like.

[@marylynch948]

Yuck! I hate Brussels sprouts!

[@pauldallen1970]

*Brussels

[@kimberlyortman5368]
