I thought it harsh too. Given the egg and beans potentially running into each other the only issue to an otherwise perfect full English a 9 out of 10 would have been more appropriate.
Using a sausage as a breakwater is just genius. Not just the idea itself, but putting it into words. I have always done that, but I never really thought about how one would describe it till I saw this.
A perfectly reasonable critique of a full English breakfast, which is equally reasonably received. This is followed by a spontaneous suggestion to 'make love' to which the other party is instantly agreeable What a perfect relationship. Why cant more people just follow Alan and Sonia?
I live in Prague, these relationships exist!! Just uptight western women with terrible voice fade are pains in the ass 🤣 Eastern euro girls are heaven.
Brilliant comedy, timing, characters. .......Cougan brilliance. I think he's enough to keep me entertained for the rest of my life. ......I'm hoping that's about 50 years. .....💪👽
In some restaurants/cafés the beans are placed in a small dish, which sits on the plate with the other breakfast components. This eliminates the possibility of unwanted egg/bean blending. I've always preferred tomatoes (grilled or tinned, doesn't matter which) to beans with my fried breakfast anyway.
Grilled or tinned it doesn’t matter which ? You can’t compare a fresh grilled tomato to a bloated soggy tinned juice soaked ball sack, it’s on a parr with ordering a well done steak, you barbarian, think of your family, oh the humanity.
With the news that premier inn have developed a plate that stops the beans from touching the rest of the breakfast, using a sausage as a breakwater will no longer be necessary
I actually know a bloke who is exactly like this , one Sunday after his missus had spent all day cooking his dinner he then proceeded to complain about how she was lazy with the gravy.
Cooks him a Good English Breakfast and then happily agrees to make love straight after - Now I know why that Bloke ran off with that Ukrainian refugee him and his wife took in...
Mail bride orders from Ukraine and Russia will be past future phenomena said economist they said when Ukraine Russia reach 30% EU level of life quality they say :/
Did anyone else think given Alan’s enthusiasm for each element of the breakfast that a final mark of 7/10 was way harsh?

@@markhenry192 Agreed 😆
It was a tad brutal. I mean 8.5 and a wink would have been the diplomatic rating.
A bit nasty
I've always thought that. 10 on 10 for everything but the proximity of the beans and the egg. Sonia deserved better.
Use a sausage as a breakwater
I actually started using the sausage as a breakwater after watching this many moons ago.
It is a fantastic idea to be fair
Same..
I can't even make an English breakfast without thinking of Alan since this first aired! Even if I'm not having sausages!
@@mattiemclean9882 same lol
@@mattiemclean9882 I'm sorry, but the times you are not having sausages, you are actually erroneously thinking about this scene.
I’d love to have been at Gary Wilmott’s wedding
Superb location; Longstanton Spice Museum.
Funny thing to have for a reception dinner - normally people have trout, or perhaps chicken.
@Cealondon I believe that the banter was pure top shelf.
Maggie Philbin, Noel Edmonds, Russ Abbott and Fred Dineage were all present, their were some first class anecdotes that day.
@@Mr_Sh1tcoin Ruddy superb?
I just realized that when I make a full English, I do exactly as Alan says. This show clearly reached my subconscious.

It doesnt work the bean juice leaks underneath
@@benmatheson1189 You aren't using dense enough sausages!
@@benmatheson1189 You need to boil those beans until they're a nice stodgy congealed mass.
This is the most British comment thread I’ve ever seen. Spot on my pasty cousins… spot on!
Stop getting breakfast wrong!

Women occasionally like to enjoy sex perhaps. Or more likely theyre incapable
@jonnyhead if sex is a pain in the arse you're doing it wrong.
@@jonnyhead yeah. 👍
Fond memories of my Czech Republic trips 23/24 years ago... 🎉

Lay off the cholesterol, or perhaps move to Scotland.
Every line is gold
'Its cholesterol, Scottish people eat it... '
Three words. Deep Fried Mars Bars.
Back of the net.
Some of us can process it. And some of us don't make us much naturally
Sausage is good both as a breakwater between the beans and egg and to use as a spoon for to scoop the beans with.
When the beans are in a cup?
Yes, it's basically a savoury 99
The perfectly executed strain he does on the line "but I'd be dead" gets me every time. The delivery here is absolutely perfect and I'm in stitches.
you can't be in stitches three times a day, it kill you

NO BEANS! How very dare you.
You are me!
At least your not one of those gastronomic perverts who have beans& tomatoes
They make me sick!

This technique also allows easy dipping of toast into the bean-juice.

Minor criticism, more distance between the eggs and the beans
Ruddy bloody brilliant!

Lovely stuff
Gooooalll
I love you... in a way!
"Few of them make sixty."
Scottish people eat it😁😁
I love the occasional random reference to random b list celebraties that people have completely forgotten about like Gay Wilmot 😂
I actually know a bloke who is exactly like this , one Sunday after his missus had spent all day cooking his dinner he then proceeded to complain about how she was lazy with the gravy.
Well was she? It's like I told you the day we were married I love you and if anything changes, I'll let you know.
true love 😄
on a full stomach 😂
To eliminate the beans / eggs calamity Sonja should have asked Michael for a cup of beans
Best breakfast since Gary's and Sara's wedding and still only seven out of ten. Sad
Hes right you know
Hes right though, i do know some lads that eat full english all the time and they're all balloons
7 on 10
7 on 10? Un-be-bloody-lievabe
Spot on re sausage breakwater
All in all, a very good effort; 7 on 10; let’s make love.
Common sense really ,
