The Latin phrasebook one is _so_ David, it almost borders on ridiculous.

[@TheSmart-CasualGamer]

Any chance I have to rewatch "Victoria doesn't know this", I will take it.

[@jgg75]

I have been watching this show since 2009 and there is no way I'd still watch it if it wasn't for David. Lee is great but I keep coming back for David.

[@dragonsdynamite6403]

I completely agree. Lee, as funny as he can be, becomes annoying.with childish dad jokes. Especially “my client would like a moment” and “you’re digging a bigger hole for yourself.” Funny the first time, much less the second and annoying afterwards.

[@paulareeds5088]

Totally agree. For me, I much prefer David's sense of humour and grumpiness. 😊😊

[@paulareeds5088]

​@dragonsdynamite6403 Oh so agree, Lee's humour a lot of the time is just stupid, for me David's SOH is so much better. Also love Bob Mortimer on the show.

David knows nothing of science, politics, high class living like many assume he does but he knows so much about history.

[@DodderingOldMan]

Eh, science and high class living maybe, but he's talked and written a fair bit about politics. Nothing particularly in depth, but he's moderately well informed at least.

[@notepadpowersnail1860]

Well, he did major in history in college, so it’s a pretty sensible outcome.

[@dragonsdynamite6403]

What have you achieved with your qualifications?

He doesn't claim to.

@@nitroputin5790 When David fiddled with the bookmarks. She helped him out to think of stuff because she knew it was a lie.

[@ashleyzinyk399]

@@tombstonerforever9374 I don't think she helped him "think of stuff" - he's a very experienced improviser. She let him off the hook of having to air something that might embarrass her by giving him tacit permission to talk about the weather-forecast argument.

@@ashleyzinyk399eh, it seemed she was more creating a false argument to muddy the waters.

The bookmark lie was great, very believable; and I can very well believe Victoria has 7 or 8 books on the go too! My wife is called Victoria and reminds of Coren-Mitchell - a true bookworm, intelligent, etc moving Mrs H’s bookmark would annoy her 😂

ever since Jon and Lucy broke up the only marriage i believe in is David and Victoria

Interesting how UK people have a higher knowledge of birds. In France, most of the people do not even know that a 'troglodyte mignon' is a bird

[@googleplussuxheavilyperfum5257]

I suspect that in most places if you asked someone what a "troglodyte mignon" was they wouldn't know.

[@jeromeem.2603]

Yes this was my point@@googleplussuxheavilyperfum5257. In this show, and I guess generally in UK, I have the impression that everyone knew that a wren was a type of bird. In France (and I guess generally everywhere else in the world) very few know that

The way I knew the stocks one was a lie was because he would have said he was pilloried, given his arms were restricted (his legs would be used to being in pyjama pants).

[@dielaughing73]

Plimsolls are also known as "sandshoes", they're lightweight shoes with canvas uppers and flat rubber soles.

We called our gym shoes plimsolls. 60 years ago ! And they were only worn indoors. Only really poor kids wore them outside 😊

[@fletcherb4728]

If it is true David uses pinless payments, surely Lee would know this. Unless David is so cheap he's never shouted for coffees or a round of beers in his presence haha.

[@nicosmind3]

Surprised that David would suggest that Station didnt exist in Latin (1 outpost, picket 2 station 3 watch) when theres so so many examples of station being used in Latin. Even knowing the absolute basics all words that end in tion have a Latin equivalent

[@dragonsdynamite6403]

Perhaps different meaning. Didn’t station relate to troops awaiting in position?

[@johnnyenglish583]

but the word "station" did't have the same meaning as "station" today because stations as we know them didn't exist. It would be what's known as "a false friend", effectively - the same word but with a different meaning. Kind of like "demand" which means, well, to demand in English but it only means "to ask" in French, doesn't it?

[@LiveLongAndProsperHonestly]

I don't believe the red switch one no matter what he says. There's no way in hell I can imagine someone as neurotic and weird as David not at least finding out what a red switch in his home does for 11 years. Total horseshit. Him not hitting the switch, fine fair enough but there's no way he doesn't know what that switch does.
