  • Not sure it was a series as such. 4 minute ep's that were included in
    the half-hour shows 'Charlie Brooker’s Weekly Wipe', I think.
    Anyway I've compiled them into two 30 minute collections.
    Pt 01 (Eps 1-8);
    00:00 - Time
    04:21 - Crime
    07:54 - Evolution
    11:13 - Computers
    15:19 - Money
    19:02 - Churchill & WWII
    23:00 - Philosophy
    26:31 - Climate Change
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Part 02 (Eps 9-15) is here;
    • Philomena Cunk - Momen...
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I just came across this which gives a bit of background to the evolution of the character;

      in an interview on a late night show in the US she talked about how some of her guests/real-world experts couldn't maintain character and they would laugh during filming (understandably so).
      scripts were written for each episode (she is a co-writer of the show) but improv was also deployed.
      the guests were advised to answer the questions as if they were talking to an infant and some became huge fans of the show promoting it on their personal sm accounts :}

      From a review of series 2 of Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe on IMDB; Barry Shitpeas and Philomena Cunk return with
      their talking head contributions.This section is expanded as Cunk gets her own section called Moments of Wonder.
      So it would seem Cunk & Barry first appeared in 2013 & 'Moments of Wonder' in 2014.

      Well she's not speaking in an RP English accent, she's using her own voice, a regional Northern accent (she's from Bolton, near Manchester), very much not RP. When the character was originally created it was proposed that she would give Philomena an RP accent, which on paper makes perfect sense.
