I've just realised what she was trying to say. There were two products - I Can't Believe it's not Butter and something else - and she couldn't believe they were different products and that neither of them were butter
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz true, but she suspects they may both actually be butter but retain their I-can't-believe-it's-not-butter façade by implementing a cunning disguise.
Emma Chambers. She was the reason we watched The Vicar Of Dilley. The interplay between her and Dawn French at the end of each episode was priceless. Taken way too soon. RIP, Emma.
❤ same.. I love Dawn French but Emma Chambers just played her role perfect... I'm still watching re runs laughing but sad at the same time.. She's with Angels now ❤
The "purple parsnip" and the "blue hamster" had me in stitches!! :-D It's not just what she says, but how she say's it that makes her so hilarious! A very much underrated actress, and much missed. Bless her soul.
The Vicar of Dibley was the absolutely best sitcom that ever came out over the air, in any country, and at any time. It is so far ahead of the dribble produced here in the United States that there can be no valid comparison. I've watched many of these episodes. Alice captures us all. And the rest of the characters are priceless. The Butter thing - the look on Geraldine's face is beyond words!
Love and own the series and many hours of laughter and even a couple tears...but the USA did have some great sitcoms ..Just purchased Barney Miller. nearly every line is an laugh out loud moment... with that said we own~ keeping up appearances, are you being served, father ted, foyles war, new tricks you get the picture..British videos not everyone is under 20 , they look like real people...
The Vicar of Dibley. I couldn't love a tv show more. My whole family roared and laughed at this show. It gives me the feeling of warmth, love and security whenever i watch it, and i reminisce about the family members i laughed with who have now passed away. Amen ;)
When you consider the range of topics covered in this comedy, and the emotional journey it takes you on, it always surprises me to read that there are only 20 episodes. The only other comedy I can think of that has the same level of emotional depth and range is Only Fools and Horses, and that ran for 64 episodes in comparison, which is much more time to flesh everything out. It even manages to be appealing to people who aren't necessarily religious. The Vicar of Dibley really managed to take comedy and fuse it with a heart in a way no other comedy has done before or since imo.
I'm honestly shocked how few episodes there are 😮. I haven't watched this show in 15 years, but I think about the characters and jokes often. That's some seriously good writing and acting to make such an impression in me!
the xmas special where alice gave birth in the stable is my all time funniest tv comedy moment, was a great program full of wonderful characters and emma will be sadly missed
So sad that she passed too soon...A brilliant actress, how she could keep a straight face delivering some of her lines was a real skill, had the series been still going it would not have been the same without her. RIP..
So sad and tragic at such an early age. Her character was integral to what made this show so funny. The rapport between her and Dawn was remarkable. RIP dippy adorable Alice
I saw an episode years ago when Alice was asked what the capital of France was. Her answer had me almost wetting myself. A great joke without the use of bad language or innuendo.
@@soundseeker63 Although the capital of France is Paris, and France does begins with a capital letter F, Alice clearly got confused between capital as in capital city and capital letter which is what makes that joke funny. It was also funny when she cofused the book on beauty by author Zadie Smith with the film Black Beauty at the Dibley book club.
Having a sad day...went straight to "I Can't Believe ...." It worked! The "S" vs " F" is such an amazing piece of comedic genius. Go in peace, Geoffrey Palmer
absolutely, for someone who played someone quite Dim, in contrast she was actually a very intelligent and a gifted comic actor, I know someone who once met her, on a train ... she said she was one of the most loveliest humble people she'd ever met, quite shy, but friendly and approachable and had quite long conversation with her apparently. R.I.P Emma
This is the best sitcom ever ❤️ Even though a lot of them are not with us anymore, I hope they would be so proud they leave us such a classic that people still talk about it today
There was Owen the farmer, and Jim the stutterer, and part of the humor about them was that they were not quite with it either. David was the only one who was really mean to Alice.
@@diogenesesenna9323 I remember talking with a young guy who got his 1st job. Where? Far, far away. But where? Far, far away. There ain't no trains. There ain't no buses. I replied...Sounds remote, so how far away from everyday life will you be? A guy close by chirped. As far as he is right now. I still fall over laughing at that.
R.I.P. dear Emma Chambers. She and Dawn French were brilliant together. Emma was incredibly funny as the very dim Alice the Verger. How she ever kept a straight face delivering her lines is beyond me. Bless her memory.
Ye are the fault of the earth.. absolutely loved that perfect episode and that bit still makes me cry with laughter. Emma was a gift to the world, thanks for posting 🙏💖
Emma Chambers, a wonderful actress ❤ The I can't believe its not butter sketch is the apex of writing genius, but Emma's delivery moved it another level.
If ever a character on TV was all "good" it was Alice. Kind, sweet, gentle. Beautifully written, incredibly acted. Emma Chambers was perfection in the role. One of British comedies unsung genius hero's.
"Its just a joke, Alice" "It's not a joke to his father, he's just lost his son" "There is no son!" "Well not anymore, he's squashed under a truck" Oh I do miss Emma Chambers :(
What a very sad loss Emma Chambers was to us all, she was such a talented actress and a very funny lady and to die so suddenly was so sad, god bless and rest in peace Emma you beutiful lady 😢😢❤❤
Emma Chambers was such a wonderful person. She was an incredible actress. She was brilliant and phenomenal. R.I.P Emma Chambers. Loved The Vicar of Dibley and Alice Tinker was hilarious
I read somewhere that when Charlotte purchased that line will I Can't Believe It's Not Butter she was in the car driving and saying it over and over again until she got it perfect that line but section was so funny so brilliantly said
I can recite the scripts to the whole of the Vicar of Dibley and no matter how many times I watch it, I still laugh. The "I can't believe it's not butter" gag is still my favourite thing ever. ❤❤❤
OMG I love Alice Tinker to bits she makes me laugh so hard I have tears in my eyes ....... but also tears of hearbreak too. RIP Emma Chambers I love you so much thanks for all the giggles and love her characters "ditziness" too. sadly missed forever in my heart.
The bit about butter substitutes makes complete literal sense and is in fact the entire point of all the products she speaks about. Comedy gold though.
I love Emma Chambers's interview about how she wanted to get the I can't believe its not butter part done in one take and she did! God bless this woman!
Emma Chamber was also in a dramatisation of Charles Dickens's " Martin Chuzzlewit " which I can thoroughly recommend . Here is Episode 1 ruclips.net/video/arVarWI1Vys/видео.html

emma just hammers the butter thing. she really was an unbelievably good actress with perfect timing. its so sad she is gone.

This show was and still is one of my favs of UK television. I could watch this show on a loop everyday.
Breaks my heart watching her make millions of people laugh so much and to think she’s gone to soon 😢 miss you Emma 🥺

Well....And Carrot..and little Carrot..and 🥕..
So sad and tragic at such an early age. Her character was integral to what made this show so funny. The rapport between her and Dawn was remarkable. RIP dippy adorable Alice
Alice was the best actress on the show , such a shame she passed away, but her genius will provide laughter for many of us
A role and an actor, a match made in heaven, how appropriate... so much laughter and joy.
She was equally brilliant in Notting Hill.. when she follows Julia's character in to the loo...🤣😂🤣😂
Truly the very best scene in a movie...it happens to many of us & thinking back, a must laugh moment, @ myself!
Fabulous actress her and dawn French had such an amazing relationship so so sad gone way too soon R.I.P Emma Chambers even in 2020
"I can't believe it's not I can't believe it's not butter" No matter how many time I see that joke I still laugh out loud.
And I can't believe that the stuff that isnt I can't believe it's not butter isn't I can't believe it's not butter.
I bet it took her many takes to do it. Though its amazing how she did it.
Family guy

She was the best one in it 👍👌🇬🇧
Emma Chambers was a truly brilliant comedian, rest in peace Emma
Who else watches this and tears up? R.I.P. EMMA
I only cried at the sad parts. Emma would want you to laugh, dangit.
I didn’t know that she’d passed away till your comment. That is really sad. She was truly incredible to watch.
Yes very sad
Me
Er, not me.
RIP Emma Chambers ❤
I'd completely forgotten she'd died!
What a sad loss. A delightful actress!
Emma lives in Americans hearts forever !
SHE WAS WONDERFUL!
God bless her and thank you Emma Chambers for making our lives brighter and happier with your Alice Tinker. Brilliant!
I saw an episode years ago when Alice was asked what the capital of France was.
Her answer had me almost wetting myself. A great joke without the use of bad language or innuendo.
Proper comedy's don't need to use bad language to be funny. Unlike that Mrs.Browns boys.
I've not seen that one but let me guess, she said "F" ..? :-D
@@jonathan75801 I don't mind the odd swear word if not over done, but I appreciate the softer humour of the VOD
@@soundseeker63 Although the capital of France is Paris, and France does begins with a capital letter F, Alice clearly got confused between capital as in capital city and capital letter which is what makes that joke funny.

Alice's laughter in the last scene just sent me into stitches. I can't believe it's not genuine.

I miss Alice she was an integral part of VoD. Her character was so endearing. It gives me solace knowing she has lots of other fans too.
This is the best sitcom ever ❤️ Even though a lot of them are not with us anymore, I hope they would be so proud they leave us such a classic that people still talk about it today
You said it. Amen.
Rest in peace, Geoffrey Palmer.
Alice is the sweetest idiot ever on the TV. But again, the whole village is naively adorable.
PS: Richard Armitage was absolutely DREAM in VOD.
There was Owen the farmer, and Jim the stutterer, and part of the humor about them was that they were not quite with it either. David was the only one who was really mean to Alice.
You should watch him in North & South ❤️
The funniest thing about Vicar of Dibley, is that it's not that far from the reality of English village life. Not that far at all.
Oh Alice. She was just adorable. You are missed Emma.
@@diogenesesenna9323 I remember talking with a young guy who got his 1st job. Where?
Far, far away. But where?

A guy close by chirped. As far as he is right now. I still fall over laughing at that.
Beautiful lady, can't believe she is entertaining on a different level xxx😊

Alice wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed but she had a pure soul and she’s in our hearts forever. RIP Emma Chambers 😘😘
Have you ever noticed how everyone on the show except for David pretty much felt that way about her?
Emma Chambers was a great actress it's so sad that she's no longer around. Both her and Dawn French made the vicar of dibley funny
This really should have had a little "in memory of..." written somewhere.
I agree, showing the best of a character who was portrayed by someone who sadly is no longer with us, I was expecting some tribute at the end maybe.
@@nicolalloyd910 The best tribute you could give to an artist is celebrating their work.

How she kept a straight face saying a round of hide the purple parsnip is beyond me.
Vicar of Dibley, one of my favorites . I love British comedy.
Its bitter sweet watching this. My eyes filled, I was also laughing. Emma was so special. R. I. P Emma you were comedy 🥇.
I miss these two terribly!
I wouldn't be at all surprised if the 'odd' round was a deliberate understatement!

Well said Dawn . Everybody loved her , how could you not .😀❤️

Still laughing with you emma 2020 rip forever
R.I.P. Emma you gave us all so many laughs. What a great Actress Emma was and she is gone far to soon. Thank you Emma.

The appearance in Notting Hill was unforgettable. "Oh, holey f--- "
One of the few comedies I can watch repeatedly and still laugh like its the first time.

Ahhh Emma...so sad you've gone lovely woman. Xxx
Actually understood "I can't believe it's not butter". Not sure if that's a good thing.
Same x
It's really what makes it so funny.
The bit about butter substitutes makes complete literal sense and is in fact the entire point of all the products she speaks about. Comedy gold though.

RIGHT?!?!?!
They almost left out the butter conversation, but Emma stood her ground because she had spent the entire weekend memorizing it.
Ok the head joke was a HILARIOUS!!!
Fantastic show... I really only watch the shows from the UK here in the USA as our TV schedule and lineup is horrible...
Taken too soon. 😥 Still watching the episodes and just love you in them. I can't believe it's not butter still cracks me up!!! 😁😁😁
It's sort of like a modern take on the old Burns & Allen routines. These are just great! Thank you for posting!

I can't believe that she had only one week to learn the ' I can't believe it's not butter ' lines and on the day got it in one take !
I can’t believe it’s not butter will always be hilarious
Emma Chambers was so talented. Incomparable and irreplaceable.
