"Not the brightest bulb in the box but when we lost her, all our lights went out". What lovely words from a lovely person about a lovely person. The tears at the end are not "scripted". They are real.
@@andyrob3259 That's because she did not die IRL until twenty years after after leaving the show and was not such an integral part of the story. Liz Smith was also 95 when she died after a full life, while the death of Emma Chambers was far far too soon at just 53 years old.
I typically don't go off the rails regarding a celebrity, but the day I found out she had passed I cried my eyes out. She was such a wonderful friend that I was still waiting to meet.
@Sue From The Sticks Same here...well, apart from the crying. My reaction was to be stunned. I don't usually give a monkeys for celeb deaths, compared to others... but this one was just so wrong. So very wrong.
Alice Tinker was a wonderful quirky character of Dibley, but Emma Chambers was an amazing actress, who bought her to life, made her real & believable and that took real talent!! RIP Emma Chambers, you’ll always be missed! 💕💕💕
They didn't even need to write Alice out of it, because the clips mention several other characters as still being around even though their actors aren't anymore. Even Frank is apparently still alive in universe - if any of them were going to be dead by now you'd think he would!
I sobbed so much watching this. I saw this for the first time today. What an amazing tribute. I love Dawn French even more for this. I feel so privileged to have grown up watching such wholesome shows with pure British humor thrown in. God Bless Emma Chambers. ❤❤
A very lovely tribute being both in-character and out-of-character simultaneously and celebrating the real person and the one we knew on-screen in a seamless and heartfelt way.
I'm so glad that Dawn has kept the vicar going and still reacting to real life things as they occur. Dawn is not the vicar, but the vicar has so much of Dawn in her. 😔
Dear god I feel so bad for Geraldine and Dawn…both had to bury one of their best friends and both are still coming to terms over it. There are many tough things you have to deal with as a vicar, and burying one of your close friends is one of the toughest things you probably have to do. Grief is a powerful thing, isn’t it?
Apparently she was so emotional when filming this that it took 17 takes, and even then they just ended up settling for the least emotional one, because they were very good friends in real life
Beautiful. Heartfelt. Tragic, but with a message of hope for those of us who have lost the ones we love. RIP Emma Chambers, you were one of a kind and completely irreplaceable.
It would be interesting to see Dawn French as herself give a tribute to Emma Chambers. Because I have heard that in real life they were very good friends, but had a much different relationship than the characters they played. I’m sure there was one interview that Dawn gave years ago where she said that Emma was actually quite intelligent, and that Dawn had the greatest respect for her.
The lose of Emma was a deep shock, I lost my dear wife Kelly in November of the same year, my whole world came to an end. Life will never ever be the same. Dearest Emma R.I.P.
In several days it will be 2 years since losing my Dad. My Great Uncle the same day. Both in hospice. My Dad's was a newly diagnosed. Rare and aggressive they said. My sister walked a few rooms over and my Uncle was told. He passed moments later. I have lost others but that damned C word! Praying for all of you on your journey with grief. We never forget. Tears just fall less and each day seems possible to go on. 💙 Buffalo, NY
Alice wasn’t just English humor, she had this fairy godmother way about her. Watching her ,you believed that she truly was just herself and she made nonsense seem right. She gave us light hearts and laughter. Thank you dear sweet girl….
This may be the only decent VOD thing to happen since the finale. An honest to God emotionally driven and well performed tribute to an actor and character who will never die in our memories.
And only really this segment of the full episode. The rest of the episode was awful as well as the other two mini specials. Richard Curtis really seems to have lost his touch. This segment though remembering Alice was beautiful
Well "performed"??? Well done! I am sorry to hear this. I don't have a tv since my last one broke, but I did watch VOD and really enjoyed it when I did watch, and remember the 'ditzy' blond. Again, sorry to hear.
This was a lovely tribute. My friends and I often refer to the silly joke at the end and how clueless Alice never gets the punchline. She was one of the few funny ladies who etched her character into our everyday lexicon.
My favourite part. Usually I switch off the television when the credits start to roll, on one occassion I let them roll on and came across the joke section, I then rewatched the previous programmes to watch the genius of Alice's bewilderment. There should be an Alice in everyone's life.
Dear beautiful, funny Emma. Her quirky style and her facial expressions were something so unique to her. She bought so much laughter to the world in her short life and I’m so glad we had her, even if it ended too soon. Thinking of all her friends and family, thank you for sharing her with us xx
I of course never met the woman, yet I was nearly crushed when I heard the news. Dawn summarizes something beautifully that I would have thought defied a concise acknowledgment. A lovely tribute. Thanks to whoever was involves in making this happen.
Such a moving and heartfelt tribute to a beautifully created and acted character, as well as the wonderful human being that Emma Chambers was. Thank you. x
@Lesley Wells - The Unhypnotist I couldn't agree more. When the news of her death broke, I was genuinely stunned. Normally, I don't think any more of celebs dying, than anyone else... but this lady ...wow. She had this rare quality...she couldmake me guffaw.....a rare thing. I'm genuinely sad that we won't see her....or Alice, again.
From America....Emma was incredibly beautiful and funny to me from so afar. Still sad about this more than words can describe. All my respects to her husband Mr. Ian Dunn, her children, and her friends. Keep that candle burning.
Alice was a wonderful foil for you, Vicar. Such a lovely actress, she made it look like so much fun! My favourite part of each show was the joke with Alice! RIP Emma 💖
That was lovely. I`ve just lost my Dad to cancer and one of the box sets we used to watch in his final weeks was "The Vicar of Dibley". The characters made us laugh even through very difficult times xx
Oh GOD I ADORED HER.SHE WAS A UNIQUE COMEDIAN.THE WAY SHE SPOKE AND ACTED.LIFE IS SO UNPREDICTED.GOD BLESS HER.YES YOU ARE RIGHT,HERE AND THERE.THEY SEEM TO HAVE THIS GIFT ,POWERFUL SOULS.WHAT A WONDERFUL TRIBUTE FROM HER DAWN! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO.
Thank you so much Dawn/Geraldine for this. My mum was found passed away in her hometown by the police and her neighbours last Thursday - but I think she may have actually gone on Monday or Tuesday night. She was 64, and it was completely unexpected. I was just randomly watching an old episode of “Name That Tune” and this popped up as a recommendation. It’s really touched my heart. God Bless. Xx
My most sincere condolences. I cannot tell you how many I lost over the past four years, starting with my father, my sister eighteen months ago, a woman and mother I have known since fourth grade. As a child, we hold simplistic views of death. As we age, it changes. I find it difficult, starting as a teenager, even worse as I am 57, and have known too many people who are now deceased. The grief that Dawn/Geraldine feels is real, and raw, and, unfortunately, time never seems to heal. It comes and goes like waves in the ocean.
"Grief never ends, but it changes. It is a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness or a lack of faith...it is the price of love." Someone shared this with me when I lost my Mom and it helped. Hoping it helps you as well. 🙏
@@frothe42 You're welcome. So sorry for your losses as well. As I get older (I'm 52) each one seems to hit a little closer, but I wouldn't give up having loved them for anything.
Genius acting when she submerged her own ego into the character .We miss you Dawn French and the absolutely fabulous english actors of your era, love to you all and Thankyou for enriching our lives.
Today is my mom's birthday, she died last year after 6 years of battling cancer like a warrior. I was remembering her and weeping, still in disbelief that she is gone. Grief is like waves that wash over you and something you never get over but learn to live with. I hope mom and Alice/Emma are having a grand ole time in whatever stardust heaven they now occupy. We will love and miss you both forever.
My Mom passed late last year, too - and, her birthday was a few days ago, also😉 I remember watching Vicar for the first time w/her, and this really hits home. The grief is such a strange thing, like being dropped blind into a foreign country with no map to guide the way. Here's to our Moms & Alice/Emma 💐
Beautiful message in dark times, the grief dims and the fondness gently re-emerges. Our capacity to recall our journey to "right now" is an understated marvel of our existence. May we use it with grace and kindness... just like Alice.
We all need an Alice in our lives if only to remind us that such beautiful innocence still exists. The V of D was, quite simply, the perfect blend of humour and pathos, much of it curtesy of Alice.
No one else, no matter how talented they are, could have played Alice like Emma did. The role was made for her. RIP, Alice/Emma. Thanks for the laughs and the memories.
Very touching words and so true that initially we remember the difficult end of a life but slowly slowly we re claim the good times of a life. I'm still searching for the good times for my loved one, this made me think.
As a Celebrant, I must say this was a seriously brilliant eulogy. Dawn did a brilliant delivery and it just shows how real actors can take their lines into reality with true care and honest feelings.
That was such a touching tribute to Alice - it choked me up, thank you for posting it. The folks in Dibley imprint on your heart and it never leaves you. For the creators, Dawn (Vicar) and everyone involved - Thank you! This is the most wonderful series I've ever seen.
Dearest Dawn French, the generosity you and the incredible cast of VoD possessed, and that allowed those indelible characters to be captured in those timeless moments of honesty, truth, pure insanity and emotion, is something I wish to thank you for personally. Such courage to create comedy that wasn't afraid to draw a tear! I will continue to laugh, and to weep, and be ever grateful not only to have had the opportunity to experience your (and the creators', crew's and entire cast's) brilliant work, but that I was privileged to share this wonderful world with such incredibly talented and remarkable people, however distant we might have been. Thank you for your continued willingness to share your heart, your energy and your gifts. By doing so you have indeed kept the residents of Dibley, and those who created them, "eternally here."
Beautifully said.The loss of sweet Alice ,and Emma seemed to touch so many.Aswell as the VOD i adored her in Notting hill.She was a rare gem ,a gentle soul ,with a quiriness about her that just made you love her.R.I.P Emma ,you will never be forgotten.x
Such a sad loss - a talented actress and comedian. The cast with two or three left must be heartbroken to lose such colleagues. Liz Smith, Roger Lloyd-Pack, John Bluthal, Trevor Peacock, Gary Waldhorn and Emma Chambers may you all rest in peace as you all brought light and humour into many peoples lives. Keep going Dawn and James.
Well said, Dawn. Alice was a uniquely lovable scatterbrain, utterly loyal and devoted in a disorganised way, to all those in her small circle of acquaintance.
Heaven got one absolutely beautiful and fun loving angel. Our Alice is bouncing in the clouds like bouncy castles. Love you a miliion million times Alice Xx
Wow! That was indeed a beautiful speech by Dawnie Sausage!! and what a wonderful tribute to such a beautiful and extremely finny actress. Lovely video, I have tears in my eyes now!!
A beautiful character played by all accounts a beautiful person, who regardless of your beliefs had to be a true joy and indeed light in the darkest of times. Thank you Emma.
I caught this tribute by complete accident. So pleased i did. It was a lovely tribute. Kind, caring, Poignant and truly genuine. I have seen you speak with meaning and such grace. I was surprised but moved when you paused to compose yourself with a few tears. Your relationship with her must have been amazing. I always loved her and thought she was amazing. She was hilariously funny and naive too. I often get compared to her which is overwhelmingly flattering. I was upset too so i cant imagine how you would be feeling. My thoughts are with you . Thank you for sharing that. It was lovely RIP xxx
Oh that was such a lovely tribute Vicar. I felt a bit of my heart shake its head in absolute denial when I heard that she passed. God bless Emma. And thank you!
"Not the brightest bulb in the box but when we lost her, all our lights went out". What lovely words from a lovely person about a lovely person. The tears at the end are not "scripted". They are real.
It was a pity the same words were not made for Letitia Cropley (Liz Smith) when she died.
@@andyrob3259 That's because she did not die IRL until twenty years after after leaving the show and was not such an integral part of the story. Liz Smith was also 95 when she died after a full life, while the death of Emma Chambers was far far too soon at just 53 years old.
It took 17 takes to make this scene, and even then they ended up settling for the one where she seemed the least emotional
@@sonja5191 Chambers was actually the youngest of the main cast as well. She was 30 when the series started
I agree
You only die when the last person that remembers you dies. If you are remembered... you live. Emma Chambers Lives. Here. With a Smile. In my heart.
Alice Tinker may not have been the brightest spark but she certainly was the shiniest star. Long may she continue to shine.
Well said
Alice was so funny!
Here here, Rest In Peace Alice
What a moving tribute to a lovely actress from her friend.❤
Alice was another who was taken too soon. RIP and thank you.
I typically don't go off the rails regarding a celebrity, but the day I found out she had passed I cried my eyes out. She was such a wonderful friend that I was still waiting to meet.
Thanks for liking my comment 😀
@Sue From The Sticks Same here...well, apart from the crying. My reaction was to be stunned. I don't usually give a monkeys for celeb deaths, compared to others... but this one was just so wrong. So very wrong.
I felt the same when Rik Mayall died, some people should live forever
I cried so much when I first heard of her passing. I've just been in tears again 😢😭💔
@@stewartmcminn7773 me too with Rik, i was in such shock and then cried, I’ve loved him since The Young Ones and I still can’t believe he’s gone 😞
"You can call me Alice...because its my name" not many people could deliver that line perfectly, and make it hilarious
Alice Tinker was a wonderful quirky character of Dibley, but Emma Chambers was an amazing actress, who bought her to life, made her real & believable and that took real talent!! RIP Emma Chambers, you’ll always be missed! 💕💕💕
No insipid platitudes
No over used worn out cliche's
Just an honest & heartfelt loving tribute
We remember the laughter that Alice gave us but never forget the hard work and brilliant skill Emma as a actress gave to achieve that character.
Hi

At least the Vicar is married to a hottie who bears a striking resemblance to Richard Armitage. 😍
She brought so much laughter into my life, even when I wasn't feeling so good. God bless Alice Tinker.
Childlike Alice is truly memorable. Incredibly disarming and lovable. That she was played by an actress, is the thing that I tend to forget.
An amazing, moving elegy delivered by a British gem. Thank you, Dawn.

Thank you for this. As it is said in the Jewish religion:
May her memory be for a blessing. 🙏💖

Hi mary
Lovely tribute to Emma. She absolutely nailed Alice. She'll never be forgotten
What a beautiful eulogy for both the actress and character. I love this show, and now even more so with this remembrance. Touching.
Don’t mind admitting that a few tears rolled down my cheeks at the end.
As did I, I think everyone who has seen it shed a tear.
Yes - the same here….very sad!
And me!! I can't believe it's been 3 years!!
Me too! 😭
Everytime I watch this part, it’s the same for me to. Wonderful tribute to the character and the actor ❣️
Thank you Dawn French for the tribute. The Vicar abides.

Dibley without Alice is unbearable. Thank you Dawn for that lovely tribute. Dear Emma RIP.
A wonderful comedic actress. The whole ensemble made such great comedy - but the relationship between the vicar and Alice was the heart of the show.
Absolutely loved Vicar of Dibley. When entertainment on tv still has a few of the best progs for us to watch...👏👏 RIP Emma/Alice x

I was surprised but moved when you paused to compose yourself with a few tears. Your relationship with her must have been amazing. I always loved her and thought she was amazing. She was hilariously funny and naive too. I often get compared to her which is overwhelmingly flattering. I was upset too so i cant imagine how you would be feeling. My thoughts are with you . Thank you for sharing that. It was lovely RIP xxx
Well said, Vicar. You are a truly great pastor.
Brilliant Dawn, nothing to be said. Thanks
Absolutely loved Emma Chambers! Loved Vicar of Dibley. So glad I have the DVD's. RIP Alice Tinker. Thank you for doing this Dawn French.
Oh that was such a lovely tribute Vicar. I felt a bit of my heart shake its head in absolute denial when I heard that she passed. God bless Emma. And thank you!
Beautiful, Dawn. Just Beautiful 😍❤
It was the sob from behind the camera that got me 🥲

Your words are just brilliant. Because she smiled through out all things. Thank you for sharing xx
Thank you darling, Vicar .
A beautiful tribute for a beautiful soul. May we all be remembered in such a way.
Definitely. May we all make a difference in what seems like a godforsaken world 🌎🙏
@@michaelsnow4735 God has never forsaken us, it's the other way around. But maybe, just maybe the Vicar can bring a few of us back.
What a tribute Dawn God Bless you and God bless everyone who loved and was transformed by Alice and her magnificent simple faith.
She was that essential part of Vicar of Dibley which made it so great to watch…all those characters….Emma played her part superbly.rest in peace.
