James Cameron directed the Titanic.
David Cameron sank the country like the Titanic & abandoned the ship.
I suspect this is why you may have mixed them up
So funny 😂😂
Yeah,.. the UK is now tilting towards the Pacific. I think the Scots may be able to cut it apart and stay afloat, but England at the bow for sure is sinking fast.
David Cameron sank the country into "The Abyss". (I'll get my coat)
😂😂😂 - good one!
@@eddiezweers4158 he was a decieving lying bastard
About 90% of the jokes require a knowledge of British history
Glad you enjoyed the 10% you understood! 😂
"Boris Johnson, the cabbage lady and now Sunak". Yeah, that sounds about right :D
The end where she walks in the wrong direction is so amazing, the little things get me
"He just sort of looks like a Conservative." Actually, a lot of people said that at the time.
Don't all politicians have more or less the same look and style nowadays? There's hardly any politician (except perhaps Jacob Rees-Mogg) whose political affiliation you could guess solely from their appearance.
Tony Blair was a Conservative.
That's how he got elected. He didn't look or sound like Neil Kinnock and made sure that none of the "Old Labour" figures got anywhere near power. He was public school educated which, in the UK, means he attended an expensive private school rather than a free state school), in contrast to the previous two Labour Prime Ministers. He looked and sounded less threatening to right-of-centre voters and had abandoned left wing policies.
Scotland didn't want to leave the eu so that's why we want to be independent and leave England so we can go back into the eu
@@cameronallan3034 So you want to leave a union of 4 countries in order to further your national sovereignty by joining a union of 28 countries. Can't you see the irony in that statement?
"Tony Blair was in labour ?", you asked, " he looks mor Conservative".
Nailed it. He was the impulsor of New Labour which was more right than left wing.
Ok, I'll say it. Dianne dressed as Thatcher is fit AF.
Yep, fair play, but I thought the Sixties mini outfit was also brilliant.
Probably, the best one of the series. Diane does not disappoint.
You still watch the BBC?
@@SgtSteel1 YES I pay for it, but only to avoid the sodding adverts and then I turn back to none bias channels and not ITV or SKY NEWS. Snooker is on at the moment and I like it, is that O.K. ???????
@@rubberyowen1469 My comment was a reply to the original post. If you want to watch the BBC (and continue to be brainwashed) that is entirely your choice. I like snooker by the way.
@@SgtSteel1 The BBC is total crap as are other channels but I can afford the £3.25 per week for the BBC and feel very sorry for those that cannot. I assume you are one of those people. Please accept my apology.

(Brush Strokes was a light comedy series, it's a running gag throughout the Cunk on Britain series, for absurdity I think
😊xx)
Wasn't he also Mulberry?
Robert Peston is an expert on bugger all
He is also a first class bootlicker along with Kuennsberg.
He's an expert in talking with very strange PAUSes and odd emPHASIS.
I can't listen to him. It's too annoying
😂...Isn't he just an absolute w*****.
Can't stand him.
@roberthindle5146 yes! It's so easy to do an impression...of him
The part of England she comes from is Bolton in Lancashire in the North West of England and that is how we prounce Blair.
By the way, one of the members of D'ream is now Professor Brian Cox of Manchester University and born in Oldham Lancashire.
Oasis were from Manchester.
it's not all praise though-----he claims man landed on the Moon--hahahahahaha
Yeah , my home town is Bolton and its blurr Tony Blurr
And it's strange that as he was born in Edinburgh, everyone should have pronounced it..Blerrr
"George, Ringo and their guitarists" xD I am certain that was the first time in history that that sentence was said.
Yes. Although "Paul, Ringo and their guitarists" makes more sense.
@@pxr0583 not really, as Paul played guitar on many Beatles tracks and lead guitar on many of them too, as well as bass on most of them
And they were so poor, they had to share one microphone.
The only possible problem with this is,unless you're actually from the U.K you could have trouble deciphering the serious remarks from the jokes because she's so excellently deadpan(e.g.Winter of "Discomfort" instead of Discontent)and the tons of mispronounciations,(some more obvious than others)e.g.The Sex Pistons lol.
Gorgon Brown 😂
😂. Also how many people are now realising that Tony Blair is a murderous, lying SOB. Hope he goes down as the worst PM ever. Such a disturbing and distasteful toad.
It's easy to miss half the jokes its a bit machine gun
Diana Frank Spencer 🤣
Damn, I wish you had been familiar with the Wombles before watching this. That fucking transition was amazing.
My grandma actually went to school with Ringo star from the beatles in liverpool 🤣 he was the year above her. She didn't tell me for years as if that wasn't very important information 🤣
Back in the early 1960's, my teenage sisters went a Beetle concert promising not to get carried away. They came home emotionally wrung-out and unable to speak for two days because they were hoarse from screaming
For the seventies think David Bowie and glam rock. I had no idea how good Cunk on Britain was. Thanks for the introduction!
Rock,Funk,Disco,Reggae,Punk and New Wave all came from the 70s, I don't think any other decade has created so much good music.
@@freethinker-- Progressive Rock really started in 1971 and I was 17 in London then (thinking about it, I was 17 years old everywhere, that year ) but I digress...and incredibly lucky to see Groups like Yes and Supertramp as well as the likes of Led Zeppelin,Pink Floyd,Deep Purple etc...
Yeah it’s really strange that she mentioned our 8 legged friends in the sixties but never mentioned Bowie in the seventies. Where were the spiders from mars?
19:45 Yes, it was real. The reason you've never heard of it might be because it was a bit rubbish. The joke here is that nobody remembers it, but Philomena insists on referring to it in every episode.
The best bit was always the theme tune.
I don't remember it. I thought I'd watched the best and worst of British shows since the 60s.
70s was my childhood.
The music was awesome, some iconic films and TV shows.
As an American he may have heard of the Vietnam war and peace protest.
Heart-warming to see American fully aware of irony and sarcasm: might be generalisation and unfair to say, but does go against reputation. Plus great summary: "Boris Johnson, the cabbage lady and now Sunak". Yeah, that sounds about right :D (Cut and paste from previous reply)
You have to give all her interviewees credit for keeping perfect straight faces too! 🤣🤣
You could tell Robert Peston was struggling....
Yeah "Brush Strokes" was a real show. It was a sit-com about a working class painter/decorator and his various hi-jinks with the ladies. Pretty good for it's day but they just run the intro clip as a weird nostalgia joke.
It's kinda funny that in this one the clip gets to be shown when Philomena is actually talking about the 1980s.
I absolutely LOVE this series, it's nice to see the humour crossing the pond, and that Americans are loving it too. She sounds like someone down your local Wetherspoons, explaining to you about the history of EnGERland while drinking a pint of Stella and claiming they're an expert in history...because they got a B in GCSE History.
Most. Relatable. Comment. Ever.
This lady breaks your heart in After Life ! She is also very funny !
There was no CZcams in the 60s, no internet and TV still treated pop stars as novelties. So of course, fans were hysterical at concerts.
My man I love you.
Tony Blair was a conservative in labour clothing.
He certainly wasn't.
He was a champagne socialist aka a wolf in sheep's clothing, even worse 🥂
Ok.I have to see Cunk again.....I think it's the 20th round of Philomena!
Hi Connor the British PM usually drives in an armoured Jaguar made to look as regular as possible.
I'm pretty sure it's a car they drive round in, not a big cat with a gun!
She is a unique comedian lol. Dead straight face. So great.
Thank you so much for letting this play out and not constantly interrupting. You did a great job.
Can't believe she mentioned Peebles. Where I'm from, a small town in the scottish borders.... ❤
Do Peebles People wobble but don't fall down? 😉 😂
@@fuzzlewit9 Haha. 😁
Oh, thanks. I thought she said Peoples.
The often subtle great jokes that are easily overlooked make her dialogue epic. Absolutely gorgeous writing, and performance of that writing. "The United Britain of Great Kingdom" is such a funny, even perfect, line. And she delivers it so matter-of-factly, so dead-pan, like it's just a throwaway comment. Pure brilliance!
Charlie Brooker is amazing, and Diane Morgan completely owned the role. The combination of the two made this amazing production, and others, possible.
Top tier, bar none.
''England , the posh bit of Britain '' 🤣
The "Cabbage Lady." Hilarious. It was actually a lettuce she was compared to but I like it!
On the miners strike, that's the battle of Ogreave, and it was almost like a medieval pitched battle with thousands of police attacking thousands of miners trying to block a coal depo (I believe).
As far as I remember, the police begun the action by baton charging and mounted police, and the miners responded by throwing rocks. And I believe the BBC news actually edited to make it look like it started with the miners throwing rocks.
The confrontation between police and miners you saw is known as The Battle of Orgreave.
Nice bit of knowledge. Ta lad.
The police were there because the Striking Miners were picketing those Mines that were open, and preventing the Coaches of men trying to clock on.
Sounds like something out of "Lord of the Rings"
It’s mild compared to some miners strikes in 1800s US.

😅😅😅😅
You may be interested to know, Connor, that Howard Goodall, the man Philomena was interviewing about the Beatles, is a composer and he wrote the catchy signature tunes for 3 of the most popular British sitcoms, namely "Blackadder", "Mr Bean" and "The Vicar of Dibley"! I believe he is or was a friend of Rowan Atkinson.
Howard Goodall also played keyboard for Dollar. He appears in a TOTP video in Dollar's Black and White.
@@rbrooks2007 Well, that I didn't know. But he also composed the theme tune for QI.
He also presented an excellent series about music, looking at the Beatles for example. czcams.com/video/ZQS91wVdvYc/video.html
When diana died my mom woke us all up when she got back from work at 4am and we all just sat there watching the news crying and it still tears me up watching footage of it to this day😢
My mum also rang me to wake me up at 4am to tell me of Diana's death! I saw the whole thing unfold. It was awful.
What are you talking about? Diane Morgan is still alive!
I was awake when the crash was announced, and still awake when her passing was announced. It was like the impossible just happened.
A bad day.
When Diana died i rang everyone and warned them not to turn on the radio or TV for a week because all entertainment would be cancelled and nothing actually important would be reported.
Thatcher put 4.5 million on the dole, destroyed British manufacturing industry, and whole communities, all on her own.
You have to give her credit for that.
And saved us from more damage by Labour - that party in Government was wrecking the country in 1979 (the 70s was my first adult decade). She didn't get everything right but she stopped the UK from imploding and saved us from economic disaster.
The Unions were destroying Manufacturing before Thatcher arrived.
The Unions were out of control, and wrecking the country. Communities were the collateral damage of Thatchers war with them.
Far more than 4.5 million people would have been out of work, if she hadn't.
And then she went mad and lost the plot ................................
Proof you are from the US... "the Prime Minister just rides in a normal car?" LOL xxx
Bucks is Buckinghamshire, it's Northwest of London, East of Oxfordshire.
I live there, it's pretty conveniently central for most of England and easy distance from some of the major airports, while still being mostly rural and quiet.
Amazing David Dimbleby did both 1975 and 2016 referenda
In the same tone of voice.
"David" Cameron 🤣🤣 James Cameron is a movie producer...Titanic...etc
Philomena is hilarious!
I grew up in a mining community. My friends parents were miners, it was a strike village. One or two people scabbed (worked in the strike) and they are still not spoken to, nearly 40 years later.
Look up ‘The Battle Of Orgreave’
Jeez. That's small town. Mine just closed anyway.
I have absolutely no respect for the miners particularly at Orgreave. Modifying nail guns and firing at ambulances, they didn't care who they injured or killed just as long as they got what they wanted and Scargill got rid of the Conservative government. They did actually kill people with their violent behaviour.
@@thoughtful_criticiserI totally agree with you. I live in Nottinghamshire and my father was on the police force. My husband worked for the electricity board. Miners picketed the power stations and I was a an active member of the Conservative party. My family were miners. You can imagine the scene!
The miners were not saints. They never worked on Mondays, as they had spent nearly all the week-end drinking their wages away. They were quite feckless, despite their reputation for toiling away underground fearlessly.
However Arthur Scargill was the villain of the piece, inciting violence and hatred. However he grew rich and was never involved in the violence on a personal level.
Those were the days!😢😢
Thing is the whole "Evil Thatcher closed all the mines" is nothing but bullshit propaganda the left still pushes to this day. For one, more mines closed under the Wilson Labour government than under Thatcher. The entire coal industry, number of mines, coal output and number of workers, had been declining steadily since the war. Steam trains were replaced by electric, new houses were heated with gas, electricity generation switched to gas and nuclear and so on. If you look at graphs of the decline in output, jobs and number of mines the Thatcher years aren't even a blip in the long steady decline.
Secondly, remember that Scargill deliberately started the strike to bring down the government, just as the miners had in the seventies. He sacrificed his members jobs and income in his attempt to bring down the democratically elected government. His members were just pawns in his political plan. Blame him for all the suffering.
Totally agree with your fame comment. In modern times I don't think it's possible for someone to be as famous as Elvis was; he saturated media like no one else has been able to and a good deal of that is because of the expanse that media now reaches.
23:53 I LOVED blur
Tony blair’s campaign music was D:REAM ‘things can only get better’
I’m old enough to remember this when it happened
A very good episode and a very good reaction.
😂 your reaction to this is brilliant ❤
I was a teen in the 80's - HS grad = 1983. EVERYTHING was big and defied gravity, from clothes, hair, attitudes. It was a blast
Your observation that Blair looks like a tory is spot on. He was Thatcher light and turned the Labour party into a centre-right monstrosity. And he’s a war criminal too. We’ve never recovered a truly left party.
Nonsense
@@FedericoDLP poor you for not realising. But an illegal invasion of Iraq based on lies he told constitutes a war crime. And there is ample evidence of the rest. Being Thatcher-light is the smallest of his many transgressions.
England is not a left-leaning country, unlike Wales and Scotland.
Blair is not a war criminal but his wars of choice early this century were grossly ill-advised.
Prime minister "James Cameron" had me 😂😂
Btw, Thatcher did not privatise the railways. That was her successor, John Major.
The last interview with Robert Peston was brilliant, he's actually a very funny dude by himself.
Her interview on the Letterman Show was boring.
Robert Preston is also a leftie!
The Cabbage Lady. Brilliant😂
Love Diane Morgan. She is a marvelous actress. Love from India
The miners argued that the police allowed themselves to used as Thatcher's political muscle; this still causes division today ... Thatcher was probably the most divisive PM in the 20th century with many of the UK's ills of today blamed on her policies ... I could go on & on & on ...
Don't blame her. She picked up a ball, and Major and Blair were quick to run with it.
Gordon Brown was the first Prime Minister to die in office. He's still alive, but he died in office. 🙂 Spent over a decade coveting the job, and then found that he couldn't do it.
The funniest part of this, is the narrator missing most of the puns and malapropisms. He also missed the sarcasm and intentional historical errors.
Ms. Cunk thank you, that was brilliantly funny.
Diana 'frank' Spencer.... You wouldn't get it😂
All the "experts" do know she is a comedian.
Gorgon Brown was a pretty good Prime Minister and was actually instrumental in getting international consensus in place to deal with the crash.
The places on the Electoral list were as follows and pronounced as follows too: Bucks is Buckinghamshire, Cambs is Cambridgeshire, The Isles of Scilly, pronounced (Silly) are located off the end of Cornwall from the tip of Land's End! Then you have Powys, pronounced (Pow-is) located in Wales, as are Clwyd pronounced (Clue-idd), Gwynedd pronounced (Gwin-ith) and S. Glamorgan which is South Glamorgan, all places lower down the list! Then you have Warwickshire which is actually pronounced as (Worrick-shire), just like Warwick (pronounced as Worrick or alternatively as per Wikipedia, Worrik, if that helps) as in the place name or the person's name where Warwick Davis is concerned who Features in Star Wars as Wicket the Ewok, Professor Filius Flitwick and the Goblin Griphook in the Harry Potter Film Series, The title role of Willow and as The Leprechaun in the like titled Film Series also! I do hope this will help stop you and your fellow American Brothers and Sisters from Butchering the English language and its place names alike!
That normal car he’s in is part of the Metropolitan Police protection unit, if you get close to it you will notice that the windows are about two inches thick and bulletproof, the car itself weighs about 3 tons with armour plate and an explosive roof for emergency escape.
This is a great explanation of British history 😊
I'm amazed that I could follow it perfectly
In the Winter of Discontent there were many power cuts. There was a fire in the office where I worked caused by a small gas cylinder that fell apart, spraying flames all over the filing room which was, of course, full of paper. The filing clerk put out the fire by screaming at it.
make a note everyone.
Now is the winter of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this sun of York.....you know the rest..
james cameron led this country into the abyss
Andy Craine was a computer and games journalist. LOL. 😅🤣
He lived in the broom cupboard before that though 👍
@@whitecompany18 + Ed the Duck.
So true. Our interests and attention is so fractionated. No one is famous today compared to the fame of yesteryear.
Before Thatcher when unions went on strike , they could go and do secondary picketing of other workplaces , ie Miners picketing power stations etc Thatcher passed a law saying secondary picketing and intimidation was illegal and the police would be used to stop these tactics the unions had always been used to using to win their strikes , hence massed clashes between strikers and police , which the police eventually ended up winning and the strikers gave up a year later but it was too late and the mining industry in this country had imploded and is now a fraction of what it used to be.
👍🏴
It was a shame because I had 16 wonderful years in that Nationalised industry b4 it de-centralized to Sheffiels, Donny, Notts, and Derby and it was like a Holiday Camp. I think I wrote 2 letters in my final year but the daily 2 hour lunches were appreciated. Bloody Maggie..
@@Isleofskye oh , you were there ! Sorry , I don’t know why I assumed your dad was the one that was if working age at the time .

It's hard to tell who you fancy more, pretty Polly or the great Cunk 😂
Well sums up that when thatcher died, "ding dong the witch is dead" song from wizard of oz was very popular 😏
There was a pub in Liverpool that sold Thatcher's Cider and had a chalk board saying "Thatcher's Gold 5.2%, Thatcher's Rose 6%, Thatcher's Dead 100%" 😂

I'm primed to laugh because the whole presentation is ripped from the BBC's history programs. The 'historian' walking, her tone of voice, the dramatic pause.... It's perfect.
james cameron directed the titanic and this snob is david cameron
RE: the miner's strike. Thatcher ordered the police to attack the strikers. Watch Billy Elliott
She's absolute Class! So funny 😂
Watch the film called ‘brassed off’ and you will learn about the miners strike. Brilliant film
She did more damage to British industry than the German Luftwaffa, particularly in the North of England, the Midlands, Scotland and Wales. In fact anywhere outside the City of London. The top banks and finance institutions made a killing.
They did invest wisely though by ploughing more and more money into the Conservative Party, especially the Thatcherite part. In return they were given what was left of British Industry. Which then sold them to foreign government owned Industries.
Thatcher destroyed working class communities in the north, dismantled mining. The "managed decline" of Liverpool is one that people still hold near and dear to their hearts.
The Scousers never buy The Sun.
I recon Arthur jilted Maggie at the altar before she met Denis.
Not just the north. She did the same to South Wales 😢.
Yet the government today would never consider bringing back coal mining and half the country would be out protesting about how bad it is for the environment. So either way it was gunna end at some point
@Fred Jones True. So now we import coal of lesser quality and more polluting. British Steel is having to shut down its cokeing plant because it can't get enough high-quality anthracite cokeing coal.
Robert Peston is the dullest man in the history of dull men.

FYI: Here ya go! Bucks = Buckinghamshire & Cambs = Cambridgeshire & Isles of Scilly = isles of SILLY (pronounced). They are all areas of the UK including Counties in England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland with some Islands etc.
I think you’re right: famous people were more famous back in the Sixties because there were fewer “celebrities”. Marketing to teenagers was a new thing too. The screaming girls was really weird though. Also, there weren’t the guitar amplifiers and speaker systems in concert venues back then so it was hard to hear the music over the screaming, which must’ve been off-putting for male fans. My mother went to see Roy Orbison, supported by Lulu and The Walker Brothers (including Scott Walker). She said the girls screaming at the Walkers drove her nuts but they calmed down when The Big O came on, so a riot was averted.
It's still happening today, there are hordes of screeching children at BTS concerts.
@@TheOrlandoTrustfull Really? That’s so bizarre. Imagine if the men who went to Shania Twain concerts just stood there bellowing themselves senseless.

@@TheOrlandoTrustfull Just imagine a whole arena full of men wordlessly yelling their heads off. Imagine!
@@TheOrlandoTrustfull most BTS fans are teens or in their 20s theyre not 'children'. Its a concert you're supposed to make noise, or do the concerts you've been to consist of people standing there silently? The craziest fans I've seen are male sports fans
James Cameron is the American director. David Cameron was the PM lol.
Don't forget about the cabbage lady or Gorgon Brown.!
Bucks is Buckinghamshire. It is one of the 'home counties' bordering London and said to be the third wealthiest county. Cambs is Cambridgeshire, Powys (pow-iss) and Gwynedd (gwin-uhd) are in Wales, Clwyd (cloo-id) is also in Wales, the Isles of Scilly (pronounced silly) are in the south west English Channel. Derbyshire (darby-sheer not durby) Warwickshire (worrik-sheer)
Thanks for saving me the effort...
3:31 "I feel like famous people back in the day were more famous, because there were less of them... "
Let's just observe the true accuracy of that comment for a moment.
Also, if one might add, people can now be 'famous' without talent, and thus being famous literally has no bloody value (just saying).
Blair might as well have been Conservative.
In the sense of carrying on Thatcher’s conservatism, what’s referred to as neoliberalism.
After a decade and a half of Conservative government, he wasn’t left wing at all. Thatcher had so radically change the shape of British politics by embracing free market capitalism, that he had to stay centre, and only lean a tad to the left.
You could say he was a left wing Thatcherist. He supported the Republican Bush. He took us into the Iraq War under the pretence of finding weapons of mass destruction (when there wasn’t any).
The fact that our own press/newspapers, owned by billionaires, got behind Blair, really says it all. After years of the Tories being pathetic, he was labelled as Mr Reasonable.
All true, but he did get peace in N.I. and introduce the minimum wage. New Labour was not all bad.
Thise same press billions today suport communists whod kill them if they ever came into power so doesnt say shit press say what ever sells papers
"Ah lahk red-eds". -What I'd say if I were British watching Cunk
Sending up the phrase “Significantly important.” Signifying importance.
Police were used to attack the miners. When they arrested miners for violence they presented film of it to the courts - showing that the miners had attacked them and they were just responding as they had to. Sadly for the police, there was a timer on the film, and it showed that the police had attacked first. So the police had just edited it to give a false impression.
The miners were released without charge.
Thatcher used a lot of strong-arm tactics wherever she could, and so the result in this case was that the miners were defeated, the mines closed, the miners and their communities harmed, and we imported coal from Poland giving the Polish miners work.
Still, the very rich got richer.
As much as I welcome any attack on Cameron and his faux normal guy aesthetic, taking off a tie and rolling up your sleeves in hospitals helps limit the spread of diseases carried by the fabric from surface to surface.
And he and Nick Clegg were about to deliver a baby.
I reckon he just did it to appeal to the working class though 😂⚒️
Then the surgeon threw the pm out of his hospital as they were in a clean area or some thing
All politicians do this. It is kinda crazy how many people think some posh elite millionaire is just like them because they wear a construction hat or take off their tie or do something similar. Some people are just mind-boggingly stupid.
@@MaesterfulIt was probably too hot in there!
The Beetles recorded a concert at the Hollywood Bowl. It was intended to be released as a live album, this didn't happen while they were together because all that could be heard were the screaming girls. In May 1977 it was finally released as the technology was available to get rid of some of screaming. I had it given to me but it really isn't worth listening to as the screaming really annoys after a few minutes.
Johnny Bottom and Sid Knickers 🤣
Yes Walter Raleigh brought the potato back to the UK. She interviews one of the experts about it and asks if Walter was scared the first time he saw a potato. It’s friggin hilarious. 😂
And HEAPS happened in the 70s. It wasn’t just the decade of brown and orange and awful clothes.
"Today, Britain stands at a fork in its crossroads"
Yes Walter Raleigh did bring the potato back to Britain.
