A clever satire on all those BBC and Channel 4 historical documentaries that we Canadians get to watch on public networks like TVO. I kept thinking, "this sure looks like a bad Neil Oliver doc", when lo and behold, Neil Oliver shows up answering Cunk's questions with a deadpan face. I swear that the steam train shots were taken from that show where the hosts try to live like Victorian farmers. Taking the piss in the nicest way.
In fairness, it is laugh out loud funny albeit a very guilty pleasure! Am not so sure I agree with other reviewers about the 'gotcha' interview comparisons with (the also wonderful) 'Brass Eye', 'The Day Today' et al. A sweeping generalisation I know, I'd wager virtually all the prominent figures interviewed would be entirely familiar with "1066 and all that" and I suspect they would have quickly cottoned on to what was happening - so fair play to all involved!
Less sensibly, the only negative is that there was no interview with Lance Armstrong - the first man to play trumpet on the moon for a 'Nescafé Advert' in 1995 (the first two words became half of what NASA is now named even to this day) - just four years after the last episode of Brush Strokes aired on UK TV.

In 2018 post-Brexit world, Philomena Cunk (Diane Morgan) decides to look into something called history. She certainly has her own opinions and her unique understanding of history. For some reason, this also includes the special Cunk on Christmas which aired on 2016 Christmas.
Diane Morgan delivers a deadpan performance of the clueless fake historian presenter. She is using the style of all those British presenters of history and nature docs. It is funny and slightly informative unless you start believing some of the ridiculous ideas. I really laughed out loud. That by itself is enough to recommend this show.

Diane Morgan is possibly the funniest actor alive right now. She's brilliant in this series, a parody of the self-important BBC history documentary. Well worth your time.
Philomena Cunk looks at the history of British culture, giving her own unique spin on the history.
It's a wonderfully funny, smart and imaginative series, it's rips the educational, but often sober historical documentaries that have been the staple of The BBC for many years, expect many laughs, sarcasm, and just a refreshingly different brand of humour.
Diane Morgan, it doesn't matter what she does, she is an absolute joy, and incredibly talented. For me, she's one of the best on TV, I love her versatility and variety, she's so good at whatever she does.
It's the look on the faces of the special guests and interviewees that I most enjoyed, the looks of shock, disbelief and astonishment, it's all cleverly put together.
Some amazing location work here, she truly did get to some surprising locations, Italy in particular looked awesome.
9/10.
