On Netflix. Haven't laughed so much in ages.

Ooh I keep seeing clips of this! It looks hilarious

TwigsAndPebblyShit · 03/02/2023 19:34

She's brilliant

I didn't realise until far too recently that Cunk wasn't a "real" person. Sat watching "Cunk on Shakespeare" recently, and unwittingly uttered the expression "she really reminds me of that woman from Motherland" - thought DP was going to do himself a mischief laughing.

Diane Morgan - love her. She’s been in a couple of Ricky Gervais things too.

HappyKoala56 · 03/02/2023 19:38

Me and my son love this series. There is also Cunk on Britain which is just as brilliant

Soulstirring · 03/02/2023 19:39

Stumbled across it by accident. Very very funny

Persephoned · 03/02/2023 19:41

No YANBU to recommend a really popular show 🤣

StealingYourWiFi · 03/02/2023 19:42

We love it. We often say ‘thank god there was somebody there to sew a quick tapestry’

Dominoeffecter · 03/02/2023 19:43

Yanbu, she’s brilliant

SpacePotato · 03/02/2023 19:44

Used to love her on Charlie Brooker's weekly wipe.

It's bloody brilliant.

BionicEar · 03/02/2023 21:21

I've not watched Shakespeare or Christmas yet but the rest of the series is hilarious.

I first saw Diane Morgan as Cunk on Charlie Brooker antiviral wipe (also hilarious) and have loved her ever since. She's brilliant.

popopop · 03/02/2023 22:07

She's excellent!

ArcaneWireless · 03/02/2023 22:13

Loved her since two episodes of mash.

Dont love her for looking so bloody fabulous when I’m only a handful of years older than her though. 😉

Ponderoveryonder · 03/02/2023 22:16

I love her in motherland and haven’t watched COE but just thought Mandy was super unfunny?

Show quote history

Fab thank you. That’s a few evenings of entertainment sorted.

newbie202020 · 03/02/2023 23:36

I just don't get these comments.... I think the character is so funny!

Philomena Cunk.

katscamel · 04/02/2023 04:42

I love her programmes, how the 'experts' don't crack up is beyond me....though the one on the Elvis clip had difficulties keeping a straight face.
Still funny though slightly more serious are Death to 2020 and Death to 2021 - both on Netflix.
