- King Arthur Came a lot didn't he?
Twitter: OnCunk
Sharing all things Cunk - a fictional character from Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe, Cunk on Britain, Cunk on Shakespeare and Cunk on Earth - Portrayed by the incredible Diane Morgan.
That Camelot scene was my first introduction to Philomena Cunk. I haven't looked back since
You've come a long way
@@a_depressed_monkey "The only evidence I have in that regard is he only had one son" is a fantastic line, I love how she just rolled with Philomena
She doesn’t like to talk about the past…..so she’s not saying…….if that was your question@@a_depressed_monkey
Apparently so did King Arthur @@a_depressed_monkey
Her visible pause is epic
You can actually see this woman choosing her battles in real time. 😂
„The only evidence I have in that regard“ 🤣 how does she manage to stay so scientific and serious?
Scientists are like that.
I studied history (though I didn't finish my degree) and I always answer like that.
I try to enlighten people.
Multiple takes.
@@DrunkenCoward1I’m surprised you didn’t finish your degree in the science of history.
@@septicwomb4394 I am too.
But laziness got the upper hand on me and took me in its choke-hold.
@@DrunkenCoward1 What history did you like studying?
"He's modest in one way, but he also said He's the Son of God" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
all the prophets in the bible claimed to be son of god
@@ep073132No. Moses, Isiah, Elijah, John the Baptist, Jonah, and all the other prophets never claimed to be the Son of God. They never claimed to be King of the Jews, and they never tried to insert themselves into the trinity. That statement is just false.
Her mate Paul walked 30 miles dressed as Spider-Man whilst having explosive diarrhoea. What a legend
He certainly did NOT. The organisers stepped in & put an end to those disgusting shenanigans 😂
Not to mention he’s bigger than a log cabin
But did he paint himself being crucified as a baby?
And raised 368 pounds. ❤
@@Jerid58 368 pounds of what ???
Professor Laura Ashe accepted the filming offer several times. I feel that they all enjoy the interview lol
She really blinked a few times like that was the hardest interview ever after the tablespoon question, props to her to actually tried to give answer to each ridiculous question 😂😂
I love her "My mate, Paul" stories, she doesn't have many of them, but I find them hysterical when she drops one in. Much appreciation from the midwest USA.
They are good. They are exactly the same as "My mate, Dave" from Ali G, but so is Cunk the same as Ali G. But that doesn't make it less funny.
The one about the lorry is my favourite mate Paul story.
@ledpup exactly
Poor Paul. Having to wear that bib around his arse and being passed around like a blunt from inmate to inmate. I'd weep too.
She lies
Each time she says "my mate Paul.." you know there's a banger coming
The fact that she's trying so bad to hold her laughter at Cunk's ridiculous questions is so amusing and funny to watch. The whole "Jesus painting himself" bit became my favorite after the Camelot one because how she ended up following along with the joke but still trying to keep herself as professional as she could lol
Also the Camealot clip became 10x times funnier knowing that it was the first thing she asked to the professor after she sat down lmao
And the funniest thing is that the professor admitted Jesus wouldn't be killed had he been modest 😂😂
"Are there any paintings where he's being crucified as a baby?" That cracked me up.
the woman’s soul was extracted from her body when she was asked about King Arthur, absolutely brilliant =))
As a professor I hope to someday be interviewed by Philomena.
"Was Eve offended that Adam decided to call the night of Christmas, Christmas Eve?" - Philomena Cunk to you propably.
Be careful what you wish for😂
Laura is such a good sport. And a lovely woman.
the way her face contorts after cunk says "...table spoon" kills me 🤣
Oh! I love her expressions. I mean Dr Laura. Philomena is a phenomenal character I know. But this professor is so so delightful to watch, she is different from all other professors Philomena has ever faced.
Freal. The long blink she does as she steels herself against Philomena's question about how much King Arthur came was the perfect non-verbal response.
Saying “faced” implies they’re engaged in some sort of battle
@@UnsightlyVessel That is a battle... One invades being armed with stubborn stupidity... The other resists being "defeated" by either showing anger or laughing out loud.... Isn't it quite a battle then? 😂
@@hrisikesh I'd say Professor Ashe won this battle decisively.
Professor Ronald Hutton did pretty well. He always has a twinkle in his eye. And he has spent a lot of time being interviewed by modern witches, druids and other rather unusual people.
One of the best professors in the show, she tries to explain and answer most of the questions, but acknowledges when she can't. She knows her subject, and doesn't come off as condescending
1:20 the way that the professor had to just process that for a bit was hilarious---
"About a tablespoon."
My mate Paul has to be the scariest words dreaded by these interviewees.
Oh my god, Laura’s so strong holding her laugh! 😂 but at the sale time you can see her making such an incredible effort! This is gold!
Your mate Paul leads such an interesting, if at times disturbing life. You must be such a great friend to him.
I love this professor
2:42 that woman was fighting for her life lmfao
That is great. Laura seems a nice person but really struggling to hold herself together. So much fun
The interviews are all so good.
But my favorite Cunk bit is when she's looking at stone-age tools in a museum and points out the stone axe is "as well as boring, they are shit". :D
1:20 you can tell her soul died a little inside 😂
The Prof is knocking it out the park, keeping up with Cunk 😂
the baby crucified jesus painting got me
Sir Arthur Came-a-lot
I hadn't noticed that it's the same professor. She looks younger on the second interview... I think.
"We're both just lost here, aren't we?"
I love watching them try desperately to grasp her non sequiturs, and develop a professional answer. Their faces are just a picture after question 1.
Some adapt better than others and yet all try to give answers like there’s a classroom of kids watching!!
Any time she says "My mate Paul" watch out for whatever comes next!😂😂😂😂
Brilliant research, writing, delivery, and improvisation. Got to love this!
I just can’t even get over how very fabulous she is
Good sport, Dr. Ashe! You are just as clever as Ms. Cunk, which is the highest praise I can muster.
That professor must be an amazing teacher. I don’t know how she kept it together lol
"it took me places I wasn't ready to go ...and when I looked up, Paul was crying" 😂 this bit was so funny and so disturbing in equal measures 😢. It now lives rent free in my head.
Love the title. It suggests a conflict and I wasn't disappointed.
"Darkages" had me dying
the experts reaction are all meme worthy 😂
Both these women are pure gold.
I love how the title says 'v/s' like it's a battle 😂
Jesus really should've kept his mouth shut about being the son of God.
Yea, what an idiot
I know I should feel guilty about how much that prison story makes me laugh..
Admiration for Laura
These questions, her simple-minded way of asking, listening and responding and how cool "Philomena" stays, while the person she talks with gets more and more confused! It's hard to believe! It's philomenal! I love her art a lot! You ask, if I came a lot? I‘m not King Arthur. As far as I know...
Yes I know its juvenile but, love the " king Arthur came-a-lot, funny.
... the moment Philomena drops the word "tablespoon" is the pinnacle of the deadpan humor
I love this woman philomena philominei
The only other person in history to call Jesus an idiot since Pontius Pilate.
Jesus is an idiot.
How do they get through this without shrieking with laughter. I suppose a lot of editing was done to cut that out.
And when I looked up, Paul was crying........
Its always good when she starts with my mate Paul ^^
I have to say I find the professor very alluring 😁And her compliance with Cunks comical 'distortions' only makes for more alluring! 😂😁
I really wanna meet “her mate Paul”
I need to know when the Dark Ages were in relation to the techno anthem Pump Up the Jam by Belgian group Technotronic
1:46 Professor POV: "I thought we have ended the conversation"
1:55 Professor unleashed her full potential to match Cunk's stupidness
You can honestly surmise that all kings came a lot. They had to produce a lot of children for the royal family.
"And when I looked up, Paul was crying"....I died....
God Bless Professor Ashe.
That slow and hard blink when she was asked about that camelot.. Hilarious 😂🤣
2:28 I am wheezing!!!
we're both lost, aren't we? xD
Jesus should have kept the Son of God thing quiet. "What an idiot!"
And when I looked up Paul was crying 😂😂😂
That’s not funny. How dare you laugh. 😂😂😂😂
The only evidence I have in that regard
This is spiritual successor of Borat and Ali G. Glad to see it making a bit of a comeback.
Great legs on the Prof!
I like to think her mate Paul is the same Paul from the Bible.
This prof is fineeee
Darkeges
Oh God. I’m dying.
Any ideas about how long these sequences took to make?
super prof reactions
King Arthur was mythological, so the poor guy never came at all.
Darkages
She kinda pops with those leggings and that accent
which parties does professor ashe go to? i wanna be there
crazy how Philomena has such well defined eyes like you wouldn't find a person who has eyes more than she does, whereas dr Ashe just has spots on her face
Poor Prof.... Philomena can do that to you
Professor Ashe censored the rude story in telling. The guy in the window after kissing was like "hang on! women don't have beards." giving the woman and her lover a big laugh at what he thought was a beard.
A TABLESPOON?!?
She’s got to be a genius to be able to pull off being that blonde 😂😂😂
Given We Still have Not Achieved Peace on Earth.
Then Surely We are still in the Dark Ages.
Who are you?
I really don't know how these people keep a straight face. I wonder if they had to do lots of takes? I'm not sure I could keep a straight face, even if the subject of the question was part of my special interest!
Diane Morgan (Philomena's actress) said that the editors cut the parts of the interviews where the experts break.
I find Cunk's style quite funny since I don't relate to that history. But I wonder the historians would be pretty offended by her callous remarks 😀.
“Which it was….”
so she just liked it
He raised 368 pounds. The crusaders never did that did they? 😂
Came a lot :D
"which it was"
1:20 Hahahaha =D
Foxy professor
'vs' 😂
Came a lot ha ha
😂😂😂
Came allot 😂
I do feel that this ladies legs look better and better the more times watched.
