reminded me of the Blackadder episode where he met Shakespear. Kicks him the groin and as he walks away says, thats for all the future generations of school kids
Watching this woman literally makes my face hurt I'm giggling so much! She's brilliant, like an annoying 5 year old that always asks "why" but in adult form.
As an adult with ADHD and autism, I find her infinitely relatable. I am deeply curious about my special interests, but trying to discuss those interests with other adults often just annoys or confuses them.
1:06 I wish the astronomer involved was quick witted enough to reply "can you prove you exist?" It would have been great to see a cunk existential crisis. Astronomer: "can you prove you exist" Cunk: "Sure, I'm right here" Astronomer: "Prove it"
I'm sorry...that flies in Britain, but in the USA it can only result in millions of people spending their lives obstinatately convinced that it's the 'Baywatch Tapestry'.
That guy who couldn't answer the question about the most political thing to happen in Britain is me whenever my English students ask me a question about science. "Uh, well, it's like...so there's...I think, um..."
I've learned far more about history, science, etc - and life - from Philomena than I ever learned in school or aywhere else. It turns out my teachers had NO IDEA about the subjects they were teaching.
Her comment about schooling being easier in Shakespeare's time because you didn't have to study Shakespeare will always be my favorite. 😂

you know it's always good when she mentions her good friend Paul
who is her good friend Paul?
I know her mate Paul, who threatened Jesus
😃
Paul reminds me of Ali G’s friend Dave.
@@Doomsquad99 Philomena Cunk has a pretty heavy Ali G vibe in general. I dont mind it at all - the girl is hilarious
I wish I was that Paul. But I'm not.
"What's the most political thing that's happened?" sends me to the moon that doesn't exist and back, the guy is completely lost. Amazing.
He's so lost that he loses the ability to put words together!
Of course it was the most political thing to happen until the release of Belgian techno anthem Pump Up the Jam.
She has such a way with words.
Though TBF rendering Peston a gibbering wreck is entry level stuff
he can't even answer it and the next question "2nd most Political thing?" 🤣😂
I love how when the expert corrects her on Byron, she responds with such a good-natured "oh, right! okay!"
So British. So politie. 😂
@@phoenix-xu9xj the british are politie

But why though
No matter how old we get we should NEVER stop asking "but why".
@@janeeyre1990 Yeah, learning a bit first and practicing thinking about your questions before you ask them helps. Not entirely, but it helps
The sheer distress on her face when she asks if you can prove the moon exists is sending me
2:58 I love that he seems to accept that she’s a lost cause but then just at the last second, he can’t stop himself from correcting her again 😂
Built by one man "Norman architecture" killed me 😂😂😂
Shes like my last brain cell trying desperately to pretend to be an adult
1:40 the fact that she just breaks his brain with a single stupid question is amazing
How's it “sTuPiD”, pray tell?
@@maazkalim
how does one quantify politics?
secondmost broke hiom
All he had to say was the civil war and ascendancy of parluament
Egyptians believed that "the most significant thing you could do in your life was die" isn't that somehow profound!😅
It's the only thing we all do successfully
@@Chapps1941 it's the only thing that's guaranteed to happen after you're born
Thank you, BBC, for giving us across the pond the privilege of having this iconic woman in our lives.
I love how she fell down the dunes just because. And production crew just rolled with it
Paul never forgave him, he said "If I ever see Christ again, he's a dead man".
Glory on high to Philomena!
Blessed be!
"maybe he's you"
me, who was born 107 years after jack the ripper was already and adult man: MAYBE I AM
Learn from serial-murderer Late Ms Jane Austen!
The letter H always makes me laugh
The silence speaks volumes. Great acting material.
The Sherlock Holmes one took me off guard and almost choke on my empanada
“Who are you and what’s your game?” From now on that will be my opening line when meeting anyone for the first time 😅
Something about “it’s just like being there but in wool” really got me
It is a genius line :)
"Blur" is now the second one-syllable word that comes to mind whenever I see Tony Blair.
She has a delivery like no other!!!
Absolutely brilliant!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
bro what about the "King Arthur came a lot" bit? 😭😭
My dad was a history teacher, and I went to the same school where my dad taught.
All I can say is that, I wish she were my classmate.
Her on Jack the Ripper “or maybe, he’s you” is one of the most important quotes of the last 200 years
her sax ability matches her comedy skills xD what a woman
“saxophone”???
'Middle Ages saxaphone' - an instrument VERY difficult to master. 😉😊🤣
First time I saw her was on a recommended video on TH-cam after watching an episode of Time Team, I nearly died laughing.
“Most popular home intruder”hahahaaha!
I one day hope to confuse, frighten and annoy people as well as her one day
I would be laughing so hard I wouldn't be able to answer any questions. She is amazing!
I just noticed that I've never seen Norman Architecture and Jack the Ripper in the same room...
Her comedic timing is so great
Filomena's friend, Paul: "If I ever see Jesus Christ again, He's a dead man." Never forgave Him. That is priceless!
Philomena* There! FTFY
The medieval expert definitely has experience with annoying kids lol
fun fact: she didnt plan to fall, she actually tripped and they just kept filming and kept it in
The Sherlock Benedict Cumberbatch alien bit always gets me every time f;alksdjfasdfa
2:00
the next 15 seconds brought tears to me eyes😂😂
16 seconds* There! FTFY
That fkn “goose monster in the sky” line gets me every fkn time 😂
'Norman Architecture.'🤣
the writers are excellent and philonema delivered them flawlessly 😂😂❤
Her real name is Diane.
"Hello, Who are you? What's your game? "
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tears in my eyes, laughing through that!
Ah yes Richard the 3rd escaped by burrowing himself in a car park in Leicester
when she finished her Jack the Ripper bit with "Maybe...... it's you" i gasped 😂😂
I love "my mate Paul" stories.
1:56 in wool, lmao the goddamn accent, I just can't
1:06 I wish the astronomer involved was quick witted enough to reply "can you prove you exist?"
It would have been great to see a cunk existential crisis.
Astronomer: "can you prove you exist"
Cunk: "Sure, I'm right here"
Astronomer: "Prove it"
**slap the astronomer right in the face**
Dr Shirley Thompson is the best in series. She takes it all in stride, loves every minute. Just wants to talk about her passion subject
Which one is she?
@@maazkalimshe’s the music professor that cunk sings to 😂
The sherlock bit had me screaming!
‘Goose mosters’ haha😅
"Santa is the most popular home intruder" ...😂
Paul is an absolute chad
Absolute mad chad
" my mate paul " 😭😭😭
Easily the funniest female comedian. Kills me every time. But I'm a lifelong Leslie Nielsen- fan so the deadpan delivery is my kryptonite.
@@twosharksinatrenchcoat I am serious, and don't call me Shirley.
That's the sort of thing i expect when i hear "british comedy".
Can you imagine what the love child of her and Karl Pilkington would be like.
“Ah righ’ it’s like tha’ izzit?”
That _monster_ from also privately-owned output ‘Line of Duty®’?
"And he'd died of tarmac inhalation" fucking got me
I laugh so much watching Philomena. 😅 It's amazing comedy.
As at date. I would love to meet the 22 people who unliked this. Just need to look at you.
Truly on a level unmatched except by unrelated 1989 Belgian techno anthem, Pump Up the Jam
Absolutely brilliant
I lol'd at "Norman Architecture." That was perfection.
"signed them by Ron" "....yeah, that was, that was his family name-- Byron" "oh, right, okay"
Who else now needs that ringtone? I I hope it rings in the most inappropriate of situations for me 💯
Omg I don’t know why but the potato bit just kills me 😂
The Shania Twain ringtone 💀
“Stuff of nightmares”💀
every time i see an incel say women arent funny i have to think of this video
She makes me laugh till it hurts
Not her phone ringtone going off🤣🤣🤣
her rolling down the sand dune😂

this girl has the personality my mother warned me about
1:43 this guy looks exactly like if David Tennant and Bill Nighy had a kid
He's also the one that--
I've learned far more about history, science, etc - and life - from Philomena than I ever learned in school or aywhere else.
It turns out my teachers had NO IDEA about the subjects they were teaching.
Tarmac inhalation - I’m dying !!!
"Hello! WHAT are you?" 🤣
Never in a million years would I think my childhood crush would be her ringtone lol
“Banquo’s ghost, played here for some reason by the letter ‘H’” 😂😂😂
I can’t unsee the “H” now 😂
Cunk is mostly always iconic.
3:09 nah, that's a poker face if I've ever seen one. He was so damn patient. I'm not sure if he was even mad.
This was all built by one man, Norman Architecture 😂
"Who are you" always gets me
Now I know why Peston no longer shows up on HIGNFY. This interview is bound to come up.
Ohh.. So he was already a TV-friendly material?.!°
Such Phoebe energy 😂😅
"Santa is the world's most popular home intruder" XDDDDD
I'm entering a CAVE
Not by mistake or because I'm a wolf 🐺
That's how funny human can be!
My mate Paul approves of this video
2:44 ignore this I'm working on my philomena cunk impression
Here for the thumbnail, video did not disappoint
"The Egyptians believed...." I'm lost 🤣🤣
The first guys gasp always kills me😂
The World War 1 bit makes me think of dr who
Do you like ABBA?
F*$king LOVE ABBA.
Why self-censor yourselves,"@@sds6303"?
Going really meta with the names above the gunpowder plot
He died of Tarmac inhalation. 😂😂😂😂😂 Really! I'm in stitches! For a week at least.
It's true because he was there!°
«Who was the Darth Vader of the empire, was it Queen Victoria?” I mean,,, yeah
Seeing as she was an Empress, she was the Emperor surely
YOU FORGOT PUMP UP THE JAM!!! 🎶
