Because the character exists in a timeless void of stupidity, she can envision these historical moments and figures in a way that most regular people wouldn’t dwell on. Asking what people thought of Churchill being fat back then is actually kind of interesting.
The world needs Philomena, now more than ever. She alone (with the help of her research team: i.e. brilliant writers) could help us come to terms with the fact that it's all gone terribly pear-shaped of late.
So much of the joke is on how these history documentaries are made, the camera pan, the music, when she walked into a historical reproduction clip I really had to admire these actors not breaking their characters 😂
"War 2 was like war 1 but easier to remember cause the baddie was better" Yeah i suppose hitler is just about the best bad guy you can have, universally hated with a funny accent and mustache
@@bookies24k8 Not if you live in Namibia. That man is an anti-Apartheid activist and politician. and I believe he recently got elected too. So with that being said, if I say "I love Adolf Hitler" the correct response would be "which one?"
People say sequels are are crap but much like Ghostbusters 2, and Aliens- the SFX in War 2 were a lot better than in War 1 even though it was still in black and white.
I thought the black and white worked really well. Very gritty. And the bad guy would have looked silly in colour (my one criticism is that the Japanese and Italian secondary baddies just cluttered the narrative--especially when it felt like it ended but we had to sit through that tacked on act at the end with all that nuclear weapons nonesense). Still, the Threequel looks interesting from the teaser trailers. I like what they've done, having two main villains; that crazy orange Americn man and the Russian repressed homosexual chap who's eyes are too close together. There's some rumours on the internet that the Germans team up with the goodies in this one. I reckon David Bowie might turn up at the end for a shock cliffhanger.
@@Cybjon Hello from the future. We are currently experiencing the prequel to WW3, which I hear will be a whole series. It's an immersive multimedia experience. As per usual, it is set in Eastern Europe, unfortunately writers were a little lazy with researching Slav culture (I mean both the main goodie and main baddie have the same first name), (Well, unless it's a metaphor, as Volodymyr was the guy who founded Rus all these centuries ago?). But the overall production is terrifyingly real. The Germans are on the fence on who to side with, so they got their pipeline blown up by a man who would rather remain anonymous. The orange guy turned out to be secretly working for the repressed Russian.
They’re really good at picking people who are very passionate and serious about whatever the topic is, they end up being the straight man and not even realize it.
I think they warn them beforehand that this is that type of show, not sure how they tell it with them still acting serious but she did eventually break one: czcams.com/users/shortsyB8GXtFAiEE?feature=share
What’s ironic about Jesus Christ becoming a carpenter is that he’s named after the two words you are most likely to say after hitting your thumb with a hammer.
She's too much! Y'know, the monologues are scripted by writers, but much of the interviews rely on her wit and improvisational abilities because she doesn't know what the interviewees are going to say. Brilliant!
University dude: I suppose...I think...euhm...However a good lesson. Same time Montgomery was over Arnhem also beating all protocol...And where did Erwin R go?
From what I understand it's called Moments Of Wonder. It's a Spin-off of a satirical show called Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe, where the character Philomena Cunk first appeared. Apparently she was so popular that they gave her her own specials and series. If you think this is funny you should check out the latest one Cunk On Earth.
I can't believe this passes as great humour, pretending to be stupid, it's funny for about 2 minutes, doing this in circles gets boring fast... how British comedy has fallen..
"I`ve never met him so the best way to understand him is to meet someone else who never met him"
"The first question is, who or what is Churcill. The answer is 'who'..."
Brilliant.
😂😂
😂😂😂
The brilliance of her humor is that there's just enough truth to lull you into forgetting how dumb the next line is likely to be.
well we all know king Arthur came a lot.

One of the funniest parts of these videos is how she always asks “Who are you?” so abruptly and informally to the guests🤣
I lost it when she asked the history professor why they had back benches in the wilderness

No. She looks like a pathetic attention-seeker that acts all fake just to seek sympathy from everybody 🙄
Yep, you can see the hand of Charlie Brooker all over it.
We still need her very much in 2024😂
@@TM-hl7irToo true, too true…
I just discovered Philomena, she's absolutely brilliant.
You can read on his face how he started regretting agreeing to this interview 😂

This is my type of humor and none of my friends share it.
Why was he in the wilderness 😂😂😂? She is hilarious
Winston Churchill couldn't climb a ladder? That's his legacy tainted.
Thats why he didnt become a window cleaner
"And then one day he just vanished. No body knows where he went" 😂
The only sincere part of the interview
But that "well, he didn't" was the actual climax 🤣
“He was born, like most people”
How the interviewee not crack up a laugh once baffles me. I mean if i were in his shoes id be laughing my heart out

Then again, his shoes might not fit you.
It would be harder if there was something funny
@@appleseedtrees7512i guess you are american?
The interviewee is aghast to "he couldn't climb a ladder" 😂
I've never met Churchhill, so the best way to understand him is to ask someone else who never met him"
That statement is so true on all historians.
I never thought of Churchill as a mini cab operator but I can see him as one
"Next week on moments of wonder i will be finding out whats the heaviest month of the year"
I'm still waiting to find out where our laps go when we stand up.
@@ge2623 Or why you cannot grab hold of air😂

It's January.
1:59 she had me😂
I regret playing this in a lift filled with ppl , I laughed so hard they must think I m crazy 😂😂😂😂😂😂
How did Winstone Churchill come to invent Tippex?
Superb!
I died at "War Two"
Like a minicab operator
"He just sat underground in a hole, didn't he? smoking, telling people what to do"😂
"Hello, who are you!?"🤣🤣🤣
She's the female Ali G and I love it
God damn shes so funny ... I was looking for so long what shes called , and finally found it !
Also watch "Mandy"-
Why did they have the backbenches in the wilderness? 😆😂🤣
August sounds pretty heavy to me....but I'm still weighing up the options.
War II
The entire Fallout series lied to us.
War changed that’s why we‘ve got War II.
"1940 A.D", Ah yes, had to clarify that Hitler wasn't out commissioning pyramids in the desert.
She reminds me of Jen from IT crowd 💀
In an interview she said she gets that often, I think they're from the same area too
She is correct, there weren't many prime ministers in the black and white times.
Jesus christ this woman is a genius
What’s ironic about Jesus Christ becoming a carpenter is that he’s named after the two words you are most likely to say after hitting your thumb with a hammer.
“HELLO. WHO ARE YOU?”
what a legend
Yes. WHY did they have back benches in the wilderness?
Win Stone Churchill
Dry humor at its finest.
He could have said my name is "Doctor Greenbean Casserole" and i still would of thought it was true
Peace mongers 😂
Antonym of warmonger
Its so hilarious lmfao, I wonder how she would react tho If the professionalists would also answer in a satiric way xd
"IF the british commonwealth would last a thousand years." It wouldn't
yowoooooo 😂😂😂😂
❤
“Schools during world war era were much easier back then, since they didn’t need to learn about world war..and they had plenty off days.”
Now let's ask someone else who has never met him 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hello. Who are you?
The "are" is barely audible.. So it sounds like "who you" 😂
I am You
How many takes to do the interview. He must've cracked, surely...
😂😂 war 1 or war 2 😂😂 I just discovered her I love her

@@Dalton_Boardman2000 cool, many thanks! :)
1940 A.D. wtf😂
"War 2 was like war 1 but easier to understand because the baddie was better"
The "twitter" joke didn't age well
USSR won the war, not churchill! 85% of the war was fought on Eastern front and we all can thank Red Army for liberating Europe!
I thought hitler defeated the nazis by shooting himself in the head
She’s just copying Ali G isn’t she?
No, because she is actually funny.
Oh god what an absolute bore the historian was, haha
I can't believe this passes as great humour, pretending to be stupid, it's funny for about 2 minutes, doing this in circles gets boring fast... how British comedy has fallen..
Nomenclature: Should've gone for Philomena Phuksake!
War 2 hahahaha
Is that Will Pharell?!
Only philomena can make hearing about that cigar some smoking cnt bearable lol

I thought it was actually her 😅
