If you're afraid to try to say Cunk's name, spare a thought for all the newsreaders who had to deal with UK Chancellor of the Exchequer (a high post in government) not long ago called Jeremy Hunt (he was almost our Prime Minister at one point, which I would have loved if we really had to have another Tory PM anyway, solely for this reason!). There are videos out there (including a nice one-minute compilation) of them screwing that up frequently...

Peaches

Jess is so switched on to British humour it’s amazing 😂😂Mike comes in 0.5 seconds later I love it 😂

Jamie

It's nice to just say nothing sometimes.

Don don

ahahahah baaaaaaaaaaaald jkjk looks good with or without

Gerard McCartan

I dont get this comedy of hers. Its too daft that it feels fake. Borat/Ali g/Bruno asking daft questions works as they are wacky and foreign charactecters make it feel believable. I dont think her guests think shes serious.

Diane is also in Afterlife... Hint hint

Christopher Bergren

Diane Morgan looks so much like Katherine Parkinson (equally a great comedian actress, especially in The IT Crowd) I actually thought it was her for a long time. Philomena is the greatest of characters, so hilarious! Edit: I think the 30min "Cunk on Christmas" is the best one, especially asking the little girl how chickens were made into turkeys and getting that incredibly cute answer =D

mark Rigg

🤣 I love her.

esclad

She's a female Ali G... a real troll and ever so funny :)

Kenneth Swan

Not all interviewees are aware of this being a comedy bit. They're told to expect and answer questions as they would with a child. Every one of them has handled it like a champ. For sure Brian Cox knew who she was. And considering he used to be in a successful band, I don't think he's joking when he says he can imagine how it would feel.

Philomena is in Ricky Gervais TV show afterlife she's quite funny

Nick Ford

You have to watch Afterlife!

Ivor Hutchinson

Would love to see Philomena Cunk and Karl Pilkington in conversation

Silk

Professor Brian Cox knew what was up. Not all the experts do, though. Similarly to how Ali G interviews are done

Thomas Tom S.

Worth knowing that the experts are real experts, are completely unprepared for her and asked to take her seriously, but they’re in on the joke. I like how it’s not mean spirited, just funny.

TheHigh

👍👍

Patrick Coyle

Definitely watch the full episodes!

Simon Cross

I'm with Mike and Jess on the Christmas lights, I'm 61 and have loved Christmas ever since I was old enough to realise what it is. For me personally it's not about the gifts or the food, I just love seeing all the amazing lights people have these days, especially now LED lights are used. The lights brighten up the dark nights and bring me happiness, and If Jesus really existed then I hope he'd approve of that.

Thomas

Mathew Burton, the guy Philomena questions about Shakespeare, captured the hearts of the nation when he appeared in Educating Yorkshire on Channel 4. He was an English teacher at a High School when he did something incredible that left viewers in tears. It was in episode 8. The show won an Emmy. It could be your greatest ever reaction https://youtu.be/8CVK51YlaCY?si=VG3SUdsgaAIvWtLy

Theloyalmuppet

Great dry sense of humour!

Jason Bonner

I'm sorry Mike, I fall into the no moustache camp. So for me its good to see you back!

Sibbo

my favourite is when she talks about the titan 1c, meaning the titanic.

Marvelous Martin

Marvelous.

Kevin

Love that you did this, please do full episodes

Danny Heywood

Also, there is another Compilation about the USA!

Shuayb

YES!!! Pls go through the whole series - she's so funny!

Danny Heywood

I'm so sorry to hear about your Bloody Tops Mustash Mike!

Dave Henshall

The moustache has gone. Disaster 🤣

Jay Lo

Have to say, this reaction was brilliant. Could see how much you guys genuinly enjoyed it. Hillarious. 🤣

Julian T

You wouldn’t need to do the whole show, the episodes can stand on their own. It’s the type of thing you could drop one episode into a gap between shows.

Jamie Macdonald

As others have said from those initial reactions you guys would love watching the full interviews. Interviewing people so passionate about their subject matter in such an irreverent way is always gold.

Julian T

Motherland is my favourite show featuring Diane Morgan. Worth adding to the to-do list. Very funny. It’s about what mothers get up to while their kids are at school. It shows some ‘interesting’ styles of parenting.

Julian T

I would endorse full episodes of Philomena. There are a couple of shows: Cunk on Britain (6 episodes) Cunk on Earth (5 episodes) Plus a few one-off specials

Kieran B

Oh she used to a double act at the Edinburgh Festival with Joe Wilkinson called Two Episodes of Mash

Kieran B

Based on that you really need to watch the full stuff - and her WILTY episode

D.H

She's on an episode of wilty

iAmScott

The way Jess loses control with laughter makes me smile so much. I'm so glad you've been dragged down the hole of British comedy. We're pretty good at it. I'm sure everyone has mentioned Diane Morgan has a lead role in AfterLife too

Josip Buretić

I cannot decide between After Life and Derek which is my favorite Ricky Gervais show.

Josip Buretić

I love her there she is really funny and After Life is great show that makes you smile and cry in the same episode

Steve Small

"I was there, you guys, and the look on his face was hilarious... i mean hairless".

Erica

The responses of the experts are as funny as what she says so it’s a shame a lot are missed out on this one 😅. You’ll love the full episodes x

Shane Doolan

It looks weird Michael

Dango247

She is in Arfter life some of ricky Gervais best work

Dango247

I second that

Your Precious Prints

You would love Afterlife the series produced by Ricky Gervais....Diane Morgan is brilliant in this.

Mykolas

Would love to see your reactions to the entire series!

Richard Stokes

I've added his yearly Screenwipe to the education section, as you get the history lesson and get people like Philomena explaining it to you really badly, which is very funny!

Brucey Mitchell (Cheeky)

Loved this reaction. I've known about her for ages too but only just started watching this stuff, so funny. And props to you for casually dropping in a Christmas conversation to warm us up and get us in the mood for The Pogues & Kirsty ;)

Andi Main

A bit of context, this character started off on a show call Charlie brooker (the guy from black mirror,) screen wipe, there were two ‘talking heads’ characters, Philomena & a male Barry shitpeas, both are ‘brick thick’ stupid, commenting on current events. Charlie then expanded Philomena as a fully fledged person with her mate ‘Dave’ Diane plays her dead pan, the people interviewed know they are going to get stupid questions but are told to try and stay deadpan also, it’s done in several takes! If you watch Diane in several other shows she does deadpan to a tee!

Stefan Tymoshyshyn

Diane Morgan is excellent in After Life, another Ricky Gervais masterpiece.

Simon Crockford

I've been wondering for a while if there are any "blooper reels" out there? They'd be brilliant I think

Simon Crockford

I've been looking forward to this one dropping because I knew Jess wouldn't be able to breathe from the get go! We all love Jess's infectious laugh 😂

Thomas

Diane Morgan was great in After Life, which is Ricky Gervais’s best sitcom IMO. She also appeared in the David Brent movie.

Static CentreHalf

Diane Morgan even took the P out of the format of "Who do you think you are?" while appearing on it recently. One of her riders was that she wouldn't be made to do the head turn during the opening credits. Well worth a look on iPlayer.

Kieran B

The “I love ABBA” bit is one of my favourites

James Welsh

R.I.P The Moustache. Truly a sad day, but if we come together as a community we'll get through this

Kieran B

I think the bread sauce did end with that in the original

Daz Parker

What a great wife to lie about your moustache murder hahaha

Kieran B

The full episodes are absolutely worth it and you get proper context then which makes it even funnier

James

win

I was literally on my phone looking for Philomena Cunk clips to recommend when this popped up!

Sinclair Brechin 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Been waiting for this!! I love Philomena Cunk/Diane Morgan! My kind of humour! Don’t know how she keeps a straight face, genius!🤣 She’s also hilarious in “Mandy” and “Motherland”
