Like this comment if I should watch the next episodes!
The metal line she was standing on is the literal meridian, the 0° longitude.
Definitely! Please do
You need to brush up on your history lol Churchill was realected in 51 as PM
YES!!!!! Up this vote.
I love the series and I think you should watch them all.
I think interfacing with computers via our brains would be a bad idea, purely because human thoughts are multi facited. Often we think one thing and do another.
While it's not exactly what she meant, there were cases in which the actor who re-enacted a crime for the police drama turned out to be the perpetrator. There was such case in Poland, where the local Crimestoppers programme had someone who later turned out to be the murderer play a background role in their re-enactment.
Think there was a guy that strangled women with their bra in Germany, he then somehow became the eloquent posterboy for reform, got a job hosting the news, and got to report on his own murders (women found strangled) because he wasn't actually reformed. Good times.
He got caught because he kept correcting them on how it was done?
@@wulfgold he went to the US and killed some women in California
7:47 For Mr Terry and anyone interested in a fun fact. The UK police force was founded by Home Secretary at the time Sir Robert Peel in 1829. Officers were nicknamed "Peelers" or "Bobbies" after Peel. The aim was to create an organized, preventive police force to maintain public order and safety.
The term "police" comes from the French word "police," itself derived from the Latin "politia," meaning "civil administration." Sir Robert Peel's new force adopted this term to emphasize their role in maintaining public order and safety, distinguishing them from military forces.
Another fun fact. Before the Metropolitan Police, organized professional policing was done by a group nicknamed the Bow Street Runners because they worked out of the magistrate's office on Bow Street in London. They were founded in 1749 and became more regularized with steady government support and funding in 1753. They began as essentially just investigators, but added foot patrols as time went on. When the Metropolitan Police was founded in the 1830s, they became superfluous and were gradually disbanded.
There was the case of Thomas Myers in the town of Lebanon, Warren County, Ohio, in 1871. He accidentally shot himself during a bar brawl. A lawyer figured this out and while demonstrating how it happened he killed himself too. "The unfortunate advocate had demonstrated the reasonableness of his theory," reported the Leeds Times, "but at the cost of his life." It gets better "Hardly was he in his grave before another man killed himself while trying precisely in the same way to demonstrate how the lawyer had met his death"
You sir, are cultured. Great video
"They are named after Plato and reference his writings on different types of love. The term platonic was initially used to mock non-sexual relationships, as it was considered ridiculous to separate love and sex, but eventually this connotation faded away, leaving us with today's notion of close friendships."
The line is the 'Greenwich Meridian' which until 1974 was the official reference timeline. For the purposes of things like GPS we now actually use the 'IERS Reference Meridian' (102 metres to the east) - as this line will never move due to tectonic plate movement.
Worth mentioning about Pythagoras that he actually founded an entire religion based on math, music, and rituals. The religion continued around the Mediterranean for almost 400 years. He was one of the most influential thinkers of all time.
Churchill was relected as Prime Minister in 51-55! So he was a peacetime PM after the war. He was Queen Elizabeths first PM.
I’m glad you did this because I watched “Cunk on Earth” and it was fuckin great.
Tippex is like White Out correction fluid.
Great now I know how to ask for it in the UK - I love white out!!
And invented by Bette Nesmith Graham, mother of Mike Nesmith, late of The Monkees. Honest.
Favorite Philosopher: Machiavelli, not only for "The Prince" but we share a birthday. XD
For anyone wondering, Moments of Wonder was a segment featured on Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe, which we saw an image of briefly at the beginning, which was a show from around the mid 2010s about the various things happening on TV at the time; and I think the Philomena Cunk character was created to be one of the commmentators on that show so, this was her first appearance.
It's a good show, I recommend it. It's funny seeing how basically nothing in politics has changed other than the names
My first reaction to Philomena! ruclips.net/video/yQ6vNB92Jlo/видео.html
As to the age of this: this was the origin of Philomena Cunk. It was after this gained popularity that she got the full-length episodes/series Cunk on Britain, and then because that was so popular, they went on to do Cunk on Earth.
I'm really hoping for ANOTHER series :D
Good stuff. Love a bit of Philomena.
That's Charlie Brooker of Black Mirror fame at the start. He used to do various shows called Screen Wipe, Weekly Wipe, and a New Years Eve Yearly Wipe from around 15 years ago onwards I think.
They were partly serious critiques of television programs, but also hilarious rants about events that occurred, usually with a mature audience in mind.
Lol, her reference to the Turin shroud 😂
Last segment Mr Terry was referencing the Newcombe steam engine used to dewater mines in early 1700s. One of the first Newcombe engines was installed at the Griff Colliery near Nuneaton England.
In 1886 HG Wells was living in Stoke On Trent not far from Nuneaton. So it's possible he heard crazy rumors of a bullish guy at Griff Colliery claiming to have time traveled to 1885 from 2015. HG Wells was then inspired to write The Time Machine.
In a 2015 alternate timeline, Griff copied Gramps and stole Doc's time machine DeLorean going back to 1885 meeting his idol Mad Dog Tannen. He then intercepted Clara before she met Doc Brown and swiftly taking her to England to witness the industrial revolution science. Griff muscled in on Griff Colliery because the business had his name, incidentally known as Pit 4. In 1890s Griff Colliery opened the Griff Ciara pit to mine coal. The Griff Clara mine closed in 1955 - the same year Doc and Marty restored all the timelines as documented in Back To The Future 1, 2, and 3. Zemeckis obtained HG Well's notes thus discovering the truth about time travel as documented in his movies and the significance of the steam engine.
So the industrial revolution and the Newcombe steam engine inspired time travel, made possible by the flux capacitor in 1955. After watching many Philomena Cunk episodes, this is totally logical history.
Philomena is a national treasure.
But that raises a question: what is a national treasure, and why does Nick Cage think he owns one?
The brass line Philomena was straddling is the prime meridian [0 Degrees Longitude].
Yay! I discovered your channel through these videos, so awesome to have another on my birthday! ☺️
Love Philomena!!! Omg hours of "discover" v "invent" 🤣
I believe the Swedish inventor Håkan Lans first came up with the principle of a computer mouse when he invented a pointing device, or puck, for a digitising table.
I thought teachers were like Borg and after school, they went into the basement to recharge.
There is also Cunk On Britain. Most if not all of it is here on youtuber.
@MrTerry When she shows that image instead of Renes Descartes, that is Rene from the old British show "Allo Allo". It is a comedy show about a cafe owner who runs a French cafe during the occupation and he is constantly ignoring his wife, reluctantly getting in with the resistance, and helping the Nazis again not enthusiastically.
The "Turing Shroud" joke went right over your head.
I was just watching because I enjoy watching people watch my favorite things. I subscribed when you said you add little history facts. I love that stuff. Please don't apologize for sharing fun facts.
16:50 It looks, but it doesn't see. The seeing, the true seeing, that is the heart of swordplay.
Churchill quote:
Lady Nancy Aston - “Winston, if you were my husband, I’d poison your tea”
Churchill - “Nancy, if I were your husband, I’d drink it!”
38:19 I also thought, as a kid, that street lamps (the white ones that illuminated the road) were actually activated by birds that would land and peck on a button. I believed this because the only time I saw birds on the lamps was when they turned on.
I like to think that she is a representative from an alien race trying to understand how Earth works, and this documentary is what she believes Earth to be, shown to the alien race.
20:54 who doesn't know about the Shroud of Turing?
15:24 We have also seen it in the changes to animals affected by Chernobyl with traits that make them more resistant to radioactive waste!
If you like this, you should watch Look Around You. It was the first video series I watched on RUclips ever 😂
Love all your videos
Fun thing, in Houston around 2020 there was a push to have police from the city to be drug tested regularly. They unionized and said that it was infringing on they're rights. I live in the area and just couldn't contain my laughter.
She sounds like Kamala purposely making word salads.
How did you not get the Turin Shroud joke at 20:59? I lol'd!
He, he. You missed the Turin Shroud joke 😂
First time watching the channel, I enjoyed my stay! Will subscribe!
Weekly Wipe is a show by Charlie Brooker, who is a satirical genius and also responsible for the Black Mirror series.
Philomena Cunk was launched as a character on his shows.
They are quite dated now, but as well as his "Weekly Wipe" satirical current affairs shows, he also did annual yearly reviews of the past year, from 2010-2016.
They are interesting to watch as you can actually see the world starting to unravel in each passing year.
He stopped in 2016, after declaring the world too depressing after 2016, although it was probably really due to other projects.
Well, when I was kid I believed that there was a tiny person on the ATM, counting your money and giving it to you 😂😂😂
Sir Robert Peel started the Metropolitan police. It’s why police are sometimes called “peelers”.
Mr Terry, in terms of the most significant moments in history, where would you rank the release of Belgian techo anthum Pump Up The Jam?
I wouldn’t presume to answer on behalf of Mr. Terry but for me, it’s quite possibly the peak of modern civilisation. It’s certainly up there with, say for example, the sitcom
Brush Strokes.
There’s a great movie about Turing in Netflix played by Benedict Cumberbatch who is actually related to Alan Turing.
“Moments of Wonder” was a SEGMENT on a show called “Weekly Wipe,” written and hosted by Charlie Brooker - THE GUY WHO WROTE BLACK MIRROR.
It was literally my favorite show when it was on.
As a history teacher, I highly recommend watching “2012 Wipe” or “2014 Wipe.”
No, Peel created the concept of Police Constables as distinct from the military, militia, or semi-private enforcers - the Detectives came later.
You should look up the origins of British Police and Peelian Principles
Peel is worth looking up full stop. Probably one of our best prime ministers for pure pragmatism, just lacks the glamour of major international diplomatic achievements and is sadly, not in the 20th century so the general public dont care to know about him.
"Don't hug me, I'm scared" channel has a song about time that it's actually quite good!
Scrub scrub scrub 'til the water's brown.
Neural interfaces are for the paralyzed almost exclusively, I don’t think that can change in our lifetimes with the hippocratic oath and all.
I can remember watching Philomena Cunk when she did the UKs Drunk History on Lady Godiva. It was hilarious, as were the other episodes.
Boy that computing guy is crazed mice for computers are still better then mind computers and touch screens.
you missed the Turin Shroud joke, quite liked that one, slipped in.
Tippex is the same sort of thing as Liquid Paper (correction fluid), but by another brand name.
The money stored in banks is regulated by overseeing gouvernment. When a bank said "We have more money", they'd have to provide documentation where it came from. It's a system of trust amongst the participants. If you said "I've got the money from that bank" and the other bank denied it, you'd not have it. Also in our system the bank is required to have a specific amount of hard money too. So they'd have to pay fines if they couldn't show that reserve on inspection.
Plato philosophy describes what became know as "platonic forms" which area the idealized vertion without worldly imperfection. So a platonic relationship cam it was without any othing thing like inflatuation
Alan Turing story is actually tragic. He cracked the German codes and ended the war an estimated two years earlier than it would have (the amount of lives he saved by doing this is estimated to be in the millions) and he was given all sorts of awards and honours...and then the British government found out he was gay, stripped him of those honours and awards, threw him in prison, forced him to take female hormones, and tortured him for several years until he finally committed suicide.
36:05 - That's René Artois from "Alo-Alo" - a French conedy series about France during WW2. I can't you haven't watched it. I guess the show wasn't as popular in the Burger Nation as it was in most European countries..
I was just thinking about looking up some of her stuff.
Mr Terry mini athon??? sign me up!!!!!!!!!!!
Robert Peel founded the Metropolitan Police.
The singularity refers to a theoretical future point when artificial intelligence surpasses human intelligence, leading to rapid, uncontrollable advancements in technology. This could fundamentally change society, potentially beyond human comprehension or control.
A pack man board game sounds fun with a DND dice role mechanic. I wouldn't mind a bit more of this content.
The grenwich line is on the exact opposite side of the earth to the international date line. It is 0°West (or East)
Having steamed through the Pacific Ocean, a person could conceiveably also be in two different dates, by stradling the International Date Line (which, for some stupid reason isn't totally at 180 degrees longitude).
The guy at 36:02 is René Artois from the Britcom "Allo Allo". It's a comedy set in France during the 2nd world war following a bunch of not too competent French resistance members. Definitely worth a watch. My favorite is the policeman who is a Brit trying to pose as a policeman, but his French accent is terrible so everything he says comes out weirdly with a lot of double entendres. You can see some of it here on YT.
Yes, more thanks😊
Philomeena Cunk (Diane Morgan) show aired in September of 2022
There are, I believe older examples of written laws.
The code of Urukagina is from around 2370 BC.
Somebody was selling mind-controlled 'mice' in the late 80's; I didn't bite :D
The computer mouse was invented at Xerox. The UI and the mouse were bought and licrnsed by Apple, and introduced with the first Macintosh.
The mouse was invented in 1968 by Xerox. Xerox had an equivalent to the Macintosh back in the 60s but couldn't market it.
Neural interface is inevitable, potentially amazing for someone with any kind of lmiting medical condition.
I really hate The Matrix, but it's a sound comparison. If we can crack the interface there's no reason why we can't achieve a kind of immortality, but I suspect the big driver of it (like robotics) will be very similar to the VHS/Beta "war".
Favourite philosopher: Rab C. Nesbitt.
36.07 you really should get to know "That guy".
Excellent historical comedy set in occupied France. Would work well with your approach to this reaction video genre
This is hilarious 😂😆
I live in Peel Region (within Greater Toronto Area), which was named after sir Robert Peel. Coincidentally we have the largest police force in the country.
Tippex is British for Liquid Paper.
TFW the joke about Churchill on Twitter wasn't actually a joke
The "singularity" has been referred to when AGI (artificial general intelligence) is smarter than us and can make even smarter AGIs resulting in exponential growth. AGI is nowhere near good enough, or even available to play with
You miss most of the jokes.
😂 Turin shroud 😂🤣
I believe in the chartalist theory of money: any commodity, regardless of other use value, could be made to have additional, ubiquitous use value through the enforcement of taxes denominated in that commodity. Even with gold and silver: they are cute and all, but no isolated tribes actually care that much about gold and silver in and of themselves. They are FORCED to care when a larger society enslaves them and forces them to work to death mining for it.
Favorite philosopher... when I was younger, I was impressed by that guy Diogenes, too, because he was clever and snotty. When I got older, I got into the more serious stuff. Still like Kant, even though he is probably in some issues not really a Kantian but a (insert british swearword that rhymes). That other guy, John Rawls, is a clever guy, too.
My favourite philosopher is Timothy Dexter
There was a Pac-Man board game in the 80s, I had it
"what is clocks?"
OUCH HOLY SHIT OUCH I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE DO THAT.....
OH GOD and she keeps it up..... I can already tell i wont be able to stand her...
its a comedy show mate shes purposely saying things wrong
@@LiamBugden96 thats literally how some british people talk, ive heard people say things like that in real life.
I'm interested as to what your thoughts are on Alexander Graham Bell...my understanding is he never invented the phone he just took someone else's idea and patented it as they couldn't afford the price of the patent?
I looked up "how much to make a coin"
NO cash is still king the recent tech outage proved such a thing to be true.
I enjoyed it.
Favourite(yes, Americans, it's spelled with a U) philosopher- Friedrich Nietzsche.
Putting computers in the brain is an absolutely awful idea. In the present-day, computers and phones become old and vulnerable to hacking. So what'll happen when a computer in the brain becomes outdated?
32:45 Yea . . . Teddy Roosevelt was the only person to actually get a substantial portion of the U.S. population to vote for a third party . . . Ah the election of 1912 (:
favourite philosopher definitely Nietzsche, watched a video by Historically called 'The Philosopher everyone hates" was a very good watch and explained his depressing story very well.
Soren Kierkegaard and basically all the existentialists
I’ve actually argued with people who used Philomema as evidence for their points. She’s hilarious and the fact that it’s impossible for 100% of anything to be true means that there will always be people who believe satire to be fact. It’s fascinating. We should study their brains
19:18 "Mices" is indeed a bit disappointing for Cambridge.
Tip-Ex = Whiteout
Diogenes and Marcus Aurelius.
My favourite philosopher is Albert Camus (1913-1960). Long story short, he claimed that the world is absurd, that life has no actual meaning and that looking for it just makes no sense since we're trying to be rational in a world that is everything but rational, BUT at the same time he claimed that this shouldn't stop you from living your life to the fullest. It's not "Life has no meaning, so why bother?", but "Life has no meaning, and that's alright. I'm still gonna be the most faithful to myself and live as if there is no tomorrow, just because. Your duty is to become so free that your own existence becomes an act of rebellion".
i wish the bank would double my money
