utterly brilliant, thought i may actually die from laughing, am sooo impressed the serious historians etc kept the straight face!
If you missed it please watch via catch up or whatever - i think its the funniest thing i've seen since Motherland (probably no coincidence that its the same main actor)

Amazing.
That bit at the beginning about there being nothing, no hope, no energy... like modern day Plymouth 😂

Madreb · 03/04/2018 23:02

And William the Conquerers name finally made sense

BishopBrennansArse · 03/04/2018 23:03

William Wallace's head on a pike like a Scottish Pez

ILikeMyChickenFried · 03/04/2018 23:04

Thanks for pointing this one out. I will definitely find it on catch up!

Ohlellykelly · 03/04/2018 23:06

Am downloading it now, thank you

boatyardblues · 03/04/2018 23:08

SinisterBumFacedCat · 03/04/2018 23:59

afrikat · 04/04/2018 10:11

Just catching up now. Holy crap it's hilarious.

danielleparry · 04/04/2018 10:12

Omg I LOVE her!!!!!! Need to get this on catch up later!

FluffAndFluster · 04/04/2018 12:16

Like the queue for Memisis it doesn’t fucking move 😂

KermitsLoveChild · 04/04/2018 12:17

I loved it! Especially the bit about the dinosaurs .

MamaLupine · 04/04/2018 14:17

I'm late to the party with Philomena Cunk. I watched it this morning and howled with laughter. Hill Filth!

TheSecondOfHerName · 04/04/2018 14:41

"Not a metaphorical plague, like... a... metaphorical plague, but an actual plague."

I loved the interview with Robert Peston.

I wonder how much the interviewees knew about the programme in advance.

Annechristmas · 04/04/2018 14:47

My sons introduced me to her by showing me videos on YouTube. There's lots on there.

BMW6 · 04/04/2018 14:58

I've had to watch it several times as I keep missing bits as I am laughing so much
Can't wait for the next one

its the funniest thing i've seen since Motherland

Thank you! It’s been bugging me where I knew her from and I didn’t get round to googling it

GrooovyLass · 04/04/2018 16:08

I loved the King Arthur came a lot too. Whole thing had me giggling. Before snapchat the hill chalk man (sure someone will be able to tell me its proper name) was the only way to send a dick pic 😂😂😂

BishopBrennansArse · 04/04/2018 16:52

Cerne Abbas Giant

DS1 (14) now wants to visit Dorset 😂

retirednow · 04/04/2018 16:59

She's done previous ones which you can watch on YouTube, Shakespere was really funny. I don't know how The experts keep a straight face.

GrimDamnFanjo · 04/04/2018 17:12

Did he come a lot or no more than any other man?

Does anyone know how much the historians know about their interviews?

MinaPaws · 04/04/2018 18:48

Not seen it yet but already howling at these lines. I love her. She's so brilliant.

Stopyourhavering64 · 04/04/2018 18:50

It made me laugh...I don't know how the experts managed to keep a straight face
