@@josephinebennington7247 You’re thinking too hard. Sit back and laugh at the brilliant writing that we don’t seem to be able to cultivate any more. Oh the joys of Reggie Perrin, Ronnie Barker, etc… It would be great to find funny comedy without political undercover sarcasm and awful language.
@@josephinebennington7247 We can call it wisdom I suppose. I certainly like intelligent humour in places, but I suppose I just used to relax at those times, knowing that I was going to smile. I didn’t get too worried about Boycie’s business dealings, or the Driscoll brothers methods of protection, and as for that nasty Jim Broadbent character, I certainly hated him, but just left it alone when the program finished. The big one we used to carry on at work the following day was The Rise and Fall of Reggie Perrin. That was so ridiculous, but we could relate to it. I had always avoided Fawlty Towers, because I had never liked anything to do with Monty Python, but when people were saying I was like Basil, I just had to watch. I was hooked immediately.
My friends and I were playing Trivial Pursuit, and one of the girls said, "Ooh, that's a hard one!" I couldn't resist and replied, "That's what she said!" Hahaha!
OK for those who don't know, when she says "Where's the soap?" she actually means wears like it wears away the soap and the other nun says "Yes it does".
I love the 2nd and the 3rd one they made me laugh like hell :D The soap one made me get confuzed then i looked at the comments but i think its not that funny :l lol or is it just me...
The first nun asks "WHERE'S the soap?" As in "where is," and the other hears it as "WEARS the soap," as in "does it wear the soap"... so she replies "yes, it does rather," meaning that it does, in fact, wear the soap. So really it's just an intellectual remark on the inefficiency of contractions in the English language, in the form of a joke.
OMG i just got the soap one. A little tricky that one is but not it is just as hilarious as any of the others. Anyone know if the great storm skit is on youtube?
I think this compilation must be the jokes from a single series (or in American parlance, season) with that one and the one about the Invisible Man occurring in a different set of episodes.
Some of the commenters have gone part the way to explaining this one. I'm going to ruin my reputation and impart the full meaning... Nun 1 says "Where's the soap?", but Nun 2 hears "Wears the soap". The implication is that Nun 2 (and indeed possibly Nun 1) are using the bar of soap as a... ahem, ladies' pleasuring device - and it's wearing out from use. Now, let us pray... (I'm guessing you've gleaned this now since your post was 12 years ago, but I enjoyed answering it!)
Emma Chambers, who played Alice, was an actress of immense talent both on tv and the stage
The programme was always worth it for this part alone.
The only reason. Like Fools and Horses, it soon lost its original punch, and became a comment on class by writers, who think they are high class.

@@expressoevangelism80 As it’s years after the series, I’m find I’m thinking deeper, as opposed to too hard.

When we lost our Alice … we are less now … RIP ❤
I just love Alice,, The Ditzy Blonde.. She plays the absolute best part in Dibley. I just want one of the same xo. RIP Alice.
Best part of every episode. Loved them all.❤❤ RIP ALICE you gorgeous person 😢.
Emma Chambers. Sadly missed. With the state of this country. We need you back. PLEASE.
@roycook2908. How do you intend bringing her back?
Sad loss. She was lovely
'What did Eve say when she first saw Adam?' Oh that's a hard one!' 'Yep you're in!' ABSOLUTELY CLASSIC!!!
I don’t get it!
@user-tt9ow7yc9e It's implying that Adam got sexually excited when he saw Eve and got an erection. Then Eve saw it and said, "That's a hard one."
@@User-tt9ow7c9ep*nis joke
Thanks for putting those together. What a great show it was.
So loved the Vicar of Dibley❤
Alice - what an actress RIP !!
Dawn french is great at telling jokes
That’s her job
Love this program, have it on dvd, I used to watch with my mom when she was alive. These jokes crack me up.
I still can't figure out how the actress that played Alice kept a straight face most of the time. She had the best lines!
Oh, thank you thank you for posting these all together!!! The vampire joke is one of my all time favorites, LOL!
Oh gosh - they're so priceless! I never tire of them, ha ha.
I just loved this show 😂😂😂😂😂😂
i soooo love the end jokes.. Dawn is a legend...lol
Great comedy,great actors
i own the whole compete series i watch it every christmas i will never get sick of it ever !
Me too
lol - really old but still funny. And Alice is of course, a total legend!
I almost cry during No 7 not because its funny but because its such a classic. Its my favorite end joke of all time!
My son used this on me just last week, had to laugh when it was on this compilation.
Loved this show!
How the hell can anyone dislike this??? It is hilarious!!!
Genius what a great series ❤
Vicar Of dibley is awsome! i always watch it during christmas time! The Jokes always give a laugh + still hilarious as always
Alice is fantastic
the interrupting... one was HILARIOUS.. HAHA she just counts every farm animal there is lol
I’ve watched it many times before but I never got the nuns in the bath joke until now.
Brilliant
What a big loss between Alice and no no no no yes thay are brilliant actors so sad.
haha love the blind man and the toothy git
My friends and I were playing Trivial Pursuit, and one of the girls said, "Ooh, that's a hard one!"
I couldn't resist and replied, "That's what she said!" Hahaha!
Is it me, but the interrupting rabbit is just so bizarre. I have a quiet smug smile on my face.
I loved that show
one of my fav show ever
fricken Hilarious!!!!!
OK for those who don't know, when she says "Where's the soap?" she actually means wears like it wears away the soap and the other nun says "Yes it does".
That's been around for over 60 years, we told it as kids
But I still don't get it even knowing that.
@@tejaswoman me neither, but English is not my mother tongue, so it's a relief some English speakers don't get it either!
The first joke was the first joke I ever saw Alice understand.
😂😂😂😂😂
I love these jokes, teh first joke is probably the first and only one that Alice got! It was a good one too!
Of this set, yes, but she also gets the joke about the Invisible Man.... which is why she finds it unfunny.
"The interrupting sh-?"
"MEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
XD Hilarious!
briliant!
omg cool ty for upload i luv this part at end of ep :)
It does, doesn’t it! Hehe!
haha i love this show
its so hilarious
and alice just cracks me up!
I love the animal ones, they are the best!
Not in the understanding sense, But I would die of Laughter.
No problem. Glad I could help.
I love the 2nd and the 3rd one they made me laugh like hell :D The soap one made me get confuzed then i looked at the comments but i think its not that funny :l lol or is it just me...
You are correct, it’s not that funny
cute! thanks for the post~ helped the night go by a bit quicker
The seaweed. Great.
@MsCerealKiller 'I wonder if I can get the church to agree to the idea of verger culling?'
Epic rabbit impression @ 6:50 🐇
The last one is so funny. And you can see Dawn French cracking up lol.
i dont get the soap one???
What's the difference between a nun and a woman having a bath? A nun has hope in her soul...
Crude and stupid.
I bet your mother is proud
???
ooh you just have to love Alice :D
Alice doesn't know her homonyms!
i love this serie
alice is so sily
When Adam awoke from his anaesthetic, for the removal of a rib, and saw Eve., what to you think he said? Wow a womb man?
2:35 lmfao! XD "Ooo thats a hard one" ...haha dirty much ;)

Yeah! (Although it took me quite some time to understand it!)
@unidentifieable no i get that one i was talking about the two nuns in the bath.
Still funny all these years later! 😂
Number 3: well, i was gonna send it back anyway
I don't get the one about where's the soap
'Wears the soap' as in wearing down the bar of soap from 'excessive use'.
yeah she does in the third.
Because they are a vicar and verger
No..... one means that it wears down the soap ( by using it in a "funny" place and the other is meaning WHERE ?? is the soap
the interrupting rabbit :'D
the sea weed , wee=pee
Wheres the superman joke???
Sounds painful LOL
i don't get the one about the 2 nuns in the bath...
Very Funny =D
Subtitles. We need subtitles.

I heard that one at school and I'm now a pensioner.
i still dont get it. please elaborate

i dont really get the soap one either. god id take a hellovan actoress to play alice! hey where the "damnit! i missed!" one? haha
I think this compilation must be the jokes from a single series (or in American parlance, season) with that one and the one about the Invisible Man occurring in a different set of episodes.
What does she say at 6:46?
All the years I've been watching "The Vicar of Dibley", I've not got No 5. Could someone explain it please?
