    I worked on this show sometimes as an assistant editor. I’d sync up the audio and video. The amount of times she says something and one of the crew would just burst out laughing… she also sometimes says something so ludicrous she starts laughing m, it’s nightmare 😂
    I’ve never laughed so hard at work in my life. I’d honestly go home each night with painful ribs from the laughing.

    • @JacknVictor
      @JacknVictor 18 дней назад +2

      They don't know it beforehand, but are informed straight after the interview has taken place. What they are told beforehand was that she is new In her job, a bit nervous, and also told in a nice way that she isn't the brightest of people - I think it was inferred to the interviewees, but not blatantly said, that she has a 'condition' that inhibits her understanding of certain things, so if she gets things wrong just to go with it, maybe to try and explain things to her in a way she can understand , this was done in order to stop them from guessing that it is a wind up. But immediately after the interview they are told what was actually going on, and then are asked for permission to air the interview. I've seen an "extras and bloopers" video, and it shows some of the interviewees being told afterwards. Just as funny as the actual interviews in some cases.

      @@mace9770 they don't. I've seen the behind the scenes video I mentioned before, they are just given the info that the interviewer is new, not very experienced and a bit ill informed and that is basically it. As far as they know they are there for a legitimate interview in regards to talking about whatever their particular subject if interest is.
      Also, this is from an interview that is online (Google it as RUclips doesn't allow links) that Diane Morgan (Philomena) did explaining things:-
      Bolton-born comedian Diane Morgan: Although many of the people she interviews in her series are not aware of her(she feels one of two may have recognised her) she explains between, sips of water. “They are just told they are being interviewed for a BBC history documentary, I think. They are quite flattered and are keen to explain their area of expertise. We are not taking the piss out of them, but it’s nice to see them struggling and having to recalibrate their ideas.”
      Sometimes it looks like the guests may have twigged that this is a wind-up. One would expect TV critic Mark Lawson, for instance, to realise what is going on. It’s a technique that has been used before, famously by Sacha Baron Cohen as Ali G. Maybe others spend too much time with their heads buried in the Domesday Book. “We never make it clear what we are doing. I’m sure some of the boffins just don’t watch TV. You lull someone into a false sense of security, then slip in some weird questions when they are too polite or it’s too late to leave.”

    Diane Morgan - or at least her character Philomena Cunk - I think originally started out as a talking head on a Satirical news programme called Newswipe which had various iterations Weekly Wipe and Anti-Viral Wipe (during the pandemic). She's also one of the characters on Netflix's "Death to 20XX".
    The clips you are watching belong as part of a series called "Cunk on..." and there are different names depending on the series.

      I'm sure they are experienced lecturers and most have appeared on tv before . I think no matter what they've been told they soon work it out . One thing we are good at is keeping a stiff upper lip .

    She is also a character in a show called AfterLife which I think you would like.. It’s a comedy with Ricky Gervais playing the main character , but it’s also quite sad too

    I think the character started out on Charlie Brooker's weekly wipe. (Brooker went on to create the Black Mirror series)
    The show is from 2013 and onwards. Well worth checking out.
    Diane Morgan has reprised the role a few times now, all are just hilarious.

    Philomina started as a recurring character on a satirical show called Screen Wipe by the Black Mirror writer Charlie Brooker. The character was popular so they developed a few 30 minute 'documentaries'. The interviews with experts are just one part of the show, a lot of the best bits are Philomina delivering monologues straight to camera in different locations. Cunk on History and Cunk on Earth were two of the early ones. But as I'm sure one of the other muppets has suggested, Cunk on America might be right up your street.

  • @bartsimpsonhead
    @bartsimpsonhead 18 дней назад +15

    Philomena Cunk (played by Diane Morgan) was a character that first appeared on 'Charlie Brooker's Screen Wipe/Weekly Wipe' shows (which in itself is well worth watching for other characters like Barry Shitpeas) and fronted her own shows 'Cunk on Earth' and 'Cunk on Britain'.
    You may know Charlie Brooker better as the writer of the Black Mirror TV series.
    Barry Shitpeas has yet to land himself his own show.

    • @StefanWB
      @StefanWB 18 дней назад +1

      I'm not the biggest fan of Black Mirror - I respect it but I don't often enjoy it - so as far as I'm concerned introducing us to Diane Morgan and the Cunk character is Charlie Brooker's greatest contribution to 21st century British/Western culture. His old shows were really good, and yeah Barry Shitpeas was funny. I also feel like the first time I saw Scottish comedian Limmy was via Brooker's stuff. He launched quite a few careers.
      Also I do kind of harbour a secret hatred of Charlie Brooker because damnit, I wanted to marry Konnie Huq.

      King Charlie also wrote TVgohome the humourous fake TV programme listings on t’internet in the late 90’s
      I think Dianne was very obviously inspired by Ali G and Karl Pilkington’s brain when she created the character - but she pulls it off superbly (oo-er missus!)

    Hey King Boomer I love your reactions! If I may suggest some more british comedy to react to in the future. There's a government satire show called "In the Thick of It", and the movie of it; "In the Loop", would be a great introduction. It's starring Peter Capaldi, James Gandophini and others. You Rock!

    Check out "Barry Shitpeas".
    * Didnt see the person below my comnent had recommended him first, but i second their recommendation. He comes from the same show that Philomena Cunk did. They were both talking head characters, parodying the type of tripe hardly-celebrity talking heads you get on "I love the(insert time period/pop band/era here)" type tv shows.
