omelet?


Why is Stacey's mom always making omelets as if it's the only thing she knows how to make? I think she even said it one time in an episode. Is it supposed to be a joke about people in Wales?

Welsh women are notoriously bad cooks, but can normally rustle up something simple, like an omlette.

My little Welsh mother is the world's worse cook.

No, she cooks lots of stuff. She made chili when the Essex crew came to stay in Barry (except for Pam, who had “cauliflower with a bit of onion” lol).

Making omelets is her thing. There’s a cute little “behind-the-scenes” featurette about her omelet-making. It’s a special feature on the s1 dvd. (Back when s1 premiered on BBC you could watch the omelet featurette on youtube.)
