To ask you all what you think about Philomena Cunk?

[WellAlwaysHaveParis]

I've just watched Cunk on Christmas, which is on iPlayer at the moment. Found it pretty funny! Philomena Cunk's a character created by Diane Morgan (a bit like Borat, basically), and she parodies TV documentaries.

What do you all think about her?

Love love love her.

I'm slightly unsure as to whether her interviewees are fully aware or not.

Good in small doses but too much of her I find irritating.

Hahaha me neither!

I loved that actress in Motherland - have you seen it? She's 90% hilarious with all the best lines, but then has one episode where she's genuinely moving.

Cunk on Shakespeare last year was one of the funniest things I’ve seen.

Love her

Love her too.

I love her, but agree about small doses. I binged a load of her mini ones on YouTube and it wasn’t as funny as when you just see them occasionally.

Yes I'm a fan

Ahh yes @Hobbes8 - she's great in Motherland too!

DH and I love Philomena Cunk. To be honest she bears more than a passing resemblance to our DD1. To make things worse, when we mentioned her to DD1, she didn't seem to realise it was a parody

DD1 is lovely by the way and quite bright in terms of exam results. She is daft as a brush though.

Yep. Great.

Great character, really good on Screenwipe; I loved the line about the actor who played Christian Grey in the 50 shades film looking like "Colin Firth, but done in lego".

'Queen Victorian times' was very sweetly subtle and made me smile.

She's great. I sort of can't take Brian Cox seriously after watching her

But what powers a mirror?

She's fab. Gutted there won't be an end of year Charlie Brooker Wipe this year.

Will miss Barry Shitpeas too!

We're fans in the Cap household too.

Cunk on Britain coming soon! Love her.

Small doses of her is very funny but sometimes the character gets on my nerves. Cunk on Shakespeare was genuine genius though.... "In most Shakespeare plays the story makes sense even though it's written in gibberish. But in The Tempest the story doesn't even make sense either."

Hang on- no Charlie Brooker on 2017?! Why?!!! I look forward to that all year.

Love her. I'm also gutted there's no Screen wipe. If anyone hasn't seen Black Mirror yet I highly recommend them. All on Netflix.

New episodes of Black Mirror on Netflix on 29 December too!

Well I am bumping this because I have just seen an advert for Cunk in Britain! The advert was on BBC2 but I didn’t catch if it’s on there or BBC1. Said coming soon.
