People were sharing examples of great ‘line delivery’ and there was one clear (if unexpected) winner

There were many replies with clips from classic films and TV shows, featuring a lot of hugely famous actors and actresses. But in our opinion, the best example comes not from Hollywood, but from CBeebies.
Here’s what Nooruddean suggested as his favourite, and it’s hard to disagree…

Perfection! It’s from The Lunchtime Song on CBeebies (as many of you with children will already know), and she’s sayng “Scrambled eggs and soldiers”, in case you were wondering.
Others loved it too, without necessarily knowing what the line being delivered actually is. Let’s have a look at the comments.

My kids have been obsessed with this for over ten years. We figured out last year she’s saying “scrambled eggs and soldiers”

Heard her so many times and I have always loved that. No idea what she’s having but make it two.

We’ll just leave this here.
I can’t explain it but the scrambled eggs girl has the eyes of a kindly middle aged Yorkshire mum who always has the kettle on? https://t.co/MgfsWqpCnc
