I'm imagining a flustered production assistant with a headset on, queuing in the nearest sainsburys with tomatoes and custard, nervously glancing at his watch.
Sooo do you remember that time when Greg davies fed Victoria coren some tomatoes and custard with a 20 pound spoon on the bbc? That sentence really shouldn't exist but thank the gods of entertainment that it does 😂😂
In his new comedy show he talks about how teaching was the one thing he could really look back on and be proud, it was the one thing he really was good at and made a difference. Then he gets out some quotes from his pupils which consisted of "Let's be honest, you were a fun teacher, but also pretty shit".
Maybe it's the accent that distracts me (I am Canadian and we tend to think of English people as smarter) but I can't really tell if she is highly intelligent or not.
Botanically its a fruit. Culinarily its a vegetable. Just like not all culinary herbs are botanical herbs and certainly not all botanical herbs is even edible.
Well, many of the "vegetables" we buy from stores are either the fruits or the leaves of a plant. Right? Here is my theory: if the fruit of a plant is not sweet, call it a vegetable. Curious case: avocados
botanically its a fruit - or a berry to be more pedantic (afair?). but in culinary its classed as a vegetable. two different domains. hell, I only watched this for Victoria anyway...
Until about 3:00 I was unsure about whether Frank was just pretending that he liked it as a ploy to make Victoria try it. ...now I kind of want to try tomatoes and custard.
well american schools already class chips as a vegetable. On the tomatoes are a fruit thing, well so are half the things we call vegetables:- chillies, peppers, cucumber, aubergine, courgette, marrow, pumpkin, avocado, beans, peas, olives.......

@janeeyre1990 yes, well, that court can decide whatever it wants it's still a fruit. I only said it was a fruit, i didn't say it wasn't a vegetable... 0.o Vegetable isn't really a legit botanical term.. but a culinary bulbs, roots, stem, leaves, flowers, fruits, seeds & fungi can all be considered vegetables
@EuroNoobz Yes, I know. You'll note I said "by common use." The court said that since tomatoes are generally eaten with savory meals and not desert it is not a fruit, which is essentially what they were talking about in this clip.
Keep digging. In biology, "vegetable" designates the entire plant kingdom. It's irrelevant if they're "poisonous" or not (especially since something that is poisonous to some organisms can be perfectly safe for others, and vice versa). And fungi are a completely separate kingdom (Eukaryota / Opisthokonta / Fungi), somewhat related to animals (Eukaryota / Opisthokonta / Animalia), but on a completely different branch from plants (Eukaryota / Archaeplastida / Plantae).
English 'custard' must mean something quite different from what Americans consider custard. It's all very confusing. Where is the guide to all things British for Americans?
What does it mean in the US? Because in Canada it's a kind of pudding/mousse type thing with milk, sugar, and eggs, and it looks exactly like what they're eating here. I would have assumed it was the same in the States...
@@junbh2 Whatever is in Skinner's bowl is far too liquid to qualify for the milk, eggs, sugar sort of custard that I eat. 'Proper' custard should be set. Where I live in the U.S., custard is most often eaten as custard pie. My favorite is coconut custard pie. In the British series, As Time Goes B, Lionel is always going on about 'custard tarts'. When he wants one he reaches into the cupboard for it. I know that outside the U.S. people have different ideas about refrigeration, but it always alarmed me that something called a custard tart was not refrigerated. There are also lots of fancy schmancy things one can concoct from the basic custard idea. Chef-y or Mahtha type of razzmatazz.
No, what you mean is all fruits are plants. Plants divide into lots of categories, trees,grasses, shrubs, mosses, fungi and, yes also vegetables and fruits.
I think the generally held definition of a fruit is something which contains it's own seeds. So under that definition, I guess a pepper is a fruit too.
I’m sure Greg is just thinking VEGETABLES!
Oh Scheisse!
WEDGE TABLES!

Best comment I’ve read all day
Or they just went to the kitchen.
What I love about british TV and radio is that you can never expect how random it might get

Even better after her appearance in taskmaster
For the studio audience, it must have been wild explaining this down at the pub the next day.
What is the difference between knowledge and wisdom? Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
True though, and no.
Obviously you've never had a tomato fruit salad.
tomato fruit salad is simply salsa
Virgin.
Rick Grimes Nice. Quality insult.
mr davis my old drama teacher legend !!
How was he as a teacher?
dannyboy12357 ...a legend
In his new comedy show he talks about how teaching was the one thing he could really look back on and be proud, it was the one thing he really was good at and made a difference. Then he gets out some quotes from his pupils which consisted of "Let's be honest, you were a fun teacher, but also pretty shit".
Victoria coren covered in custard , omg, i may have to have a lie down in a darkened room for a while
The more I watch her the more I love her
she is beautiful
Bassive moobs.
I'm still jealous of David...
Oh my God, so am I. I thought I was too old and too settled in my life for this sort of infatuation.
Here here! ;-D
Maybe it's the accent that distracts me (I am Canadian and we tend to think of English people as smarter) but I can't really tell if she is highly intelligent or not.
+sweiland75 As she is a worldclass poker player and respected writer and journalist, I'm going with most likely intelligent, highly....
sweiland75 Check her out in some other things. She's brilliant.
Watching this after Taskmaster Series 12 is hilarious.
Flashing back to the “drinking Ribena while keeping your mouth open” task.
More arousing than it should've been, to be honest... Mitchell, you lucky bastard.
Well said mate
Botanically its a fruit. Culinarily its a vegetable. Just like not all culinary herbs are botanical herbs and certainly not all botanical herbs is even edible.
Ironically, one of David Mitchell's (her husband) well known hates is the classification of tomatoes as fruit.
but, that doesnt stop a tomato from being a vegetable.
I remember being in school back when that decision was made in America. What a weird bit of news that was.
Greg Davies Looks like Rick Mayall with gigantism
Rik played his dad in Man Down.
Victoria Coren leaning forward mouth open saying its too big. Great show.
Thanks to Frank Skinner for handing Vicky the heavy spoon while she was wearing something low-cut
god bless that man
Always fancied Victoria Coren
What Victoria wants, what Victoria gets
She married the right man… at least in the fruit or veg debate department.
aaah the joy of 1:52
I love Victoria Coren.
you and the rest of the planet, mate
Well, many of the "vegetables" we buy from stores are either the fruits or the leaves of a plant. Right? Here is my theory: if the fruit of a plant is not sweet, call it a vegetable. Curious case: avocados
There's a couple of tomatoes there I wouldn't mind putting some cream on!
She is just ... aaah!
Congratulations mate! You've successfully jizzed over your phone screen...
botanically its a fruit - or a berry to be more pedantic (afair?).
but in culinary its classed as a vegetable.
two different domains.
hell, I only watched this for Victoria anyway...
Simon Watts i
"That's huge."
I was seeing a dark haired version of Victoria for a bit. Same proportions but brunette. Ah mammaries. I mean memories.
Hahahaha... F*ck you ... 😂
Lucky boy but how daft are you for letting them go. 🤣😂
Pause at 2:37 and block the left half of the screen with your hand.
Until about 3:00 I was unsure about whether Frank was just pretending that he liked it as a ploy to make Victoria try it.
...now I kind of want to try tomatoes and custard.
That's the first time I've ever seen this - is there such a condition as "Perma-smile"??
It made me happy :-)

Feeding Victoria custard, that is sexy :-)
She's a ride
Never mind the custard and tomato, i would just eat Victoria.

Why is this boring shit on any video with any people with no Y chromosome
With custard, or without?
David:Over my dead body !
@janeeyre1990 yes, well, that court can decide whatever it wants it's still a fruit.
I only said it was a fruit, i didn't say it wasn't a vegetable...
0.o
Vegetable isn't really a legit botanical term.. but a culinary
bulbs, roots, stem, leaves, flowers, fruits, seeds & fungi can all be considered vegetables
8 years ago... where's David!
it`s a dumbbell spoon!
@EuroNoobz Yes, I know. You'll note I said "by common use." The court said that since tomatoes are generally eaten with savory meals and not desert it is not a fruit, which is essentially what they were talking about in this clip.
I am always amazed when I remember that you couldn't reply to a comment as we understand it today on RUclips
No, what I mean is exactly what I wrote. Also, fungi are not plants.
I wonder whether David has watched this and what his reaction was
pizzas also have cheese on them - are they a dairy product.
Is it true that Victoria is dating David Mitchell?...
2:52 - Frank: I have to say this is quite sexy
Vicky Coren is so gorgeous it hurts... damn
While we are at it, let us now discuss how corn is actually a grain.
Keep digging.

Victoria covered in tomato and custard 😍😍😍
god some of the old comments on this are horrible, but I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one wondering whether fish fingers now count as a fruit lol
@AerynRavanna
I hear you, brother.
@EuroNoobz The America Supreme Court decided in Nix v. Hedden (1893) that, by common use, tomatoes are a vegetable.
Any one else surprised no one mentioned fish fingers and custard??
To all those comments talking about how sexy Victoria is, I have one thing to say:
I agree!
Tomato + Custard = New Fishfingers + Custard
People don't believe the amount of things that are actually fruits. Like tomatoes and cucumbers. Or that a pumpkin is a berry. Or that corn is a fruit
I agree, and generally love pedantry/being a pedant (as is about to be displayed), but isn't corn technically a grain/pulse and not a fruit?
I can feel something moving in my trousers, and it's not the keyring or the spare change
botanically speaking tomatoes are fruit (berry's)
@grishtak knightnuckerwit was just making a doctor who reference dude . Thanks for being todays derp .
WTF is a dumbbell spoon? Lmao
........................And.....Relax.
Phwoar sticky Vicky - 18 cert needed
It's worse than just pizza, they actually tried to get ketchup classified as a vegetable as well.
Wouldn't waste it on the carpet
I didn't hear a word anyone said
All fruits are vegetables. If you're picking fruits off animals, the RSPCA would like to have a word with you.
Does this mean fish fingers are fruit too?
I only came here to see how Frank Skinner would pronounce Tomato.
i want to try tomato and custard now.....
I'm a bog standard green alien watching the coren creature....🥒
@grishtak Relax dude, have a fishfinger .
Oh god
usually gorgeous, stunning, intelligent ,funny and charismatic people leave me slightly OMG FAKE !!! But Victoria Coren Mitchell... legend !
Berry.
Oow that was a fun clip..
@LyLaPla You know, as soon as I posted that comment, that's EXACTLY what went through my mind...
