The Cunk is back, and with another episode of “Moments of Wonder.” My diligent searching of YouTube led me to find this week’s episode of “Weeky Wipe” with two—count them, two—sketches by our favorite British comedian. The entire half-hour show is below, with the salient time marks as follows:
From 0:33- 02:58, Philomena and Barry Shitpeas discuss two Sunday evening television shows.
From 24:05 to 28:15 (the end), we get Philomena’s “Moments of Wonder”, with this week’s episode (the last of the season) on “What is architecture?”. She completely befuddles Architecture Man with incessant questions about a television show. It begins with her narration, “For centuries of millennia, man lived outdoors. . . “
‘Homes Under the Hammer’ is a daytime BBC ‘property porn’ show where they follow people who buy houses at auction and then do them up. There is much emphasis on how much profit can be made, especially from renting them out. Something that is becoming increasingly controversial as UK property prices increase leaving many people with no prospect of buying their own homes.
I prefer ‘escape to the country’, also on the BBC. I’m always surprised at the amount of money that most people are able to spend.
I occasionally see the programme as well and my view is: So they claim!
Yes, I can believe that t retired Director of a multinational might have £1m plus in his back pocket but some of the others are just too fanciful.
“Then one day it must have rained.”
“Sir Christopher Robin”
“That might take another 30 years”

“For Centuries of Millenia” – that is longer than a couple of weeks, I think.
But shorter than years of epochs.

“tall buildings without any architecture”
Yeah, I can see a couple of those from my living room.
Great fun, as always. 🙂
