They don't know it beforehand, but are informed straight after the interview has taken place. What they are told beforehand was that she is new In her job, a bit nervous, and also told in a nice way that she isn't the brightest of people - I think it was inferred to the interviewees, but not blatantly said, that she has a 'condition' that inhibits her understanding of certain things, so if she gets things wrong just to go with it, maybe to try and explain things to her in a way she can understand , this was done in order to stop them from guessing that it is a wind up. But immediately after the interview they are told what was actually going on, and then are asked for permission to air the interview. I've seen an "extras and bloopers" video, and it shows some of the interviewees being told afterwards. Just as funny as the actual interviews in some cases.

@@mace9770 they don't. I've seen the behind the scenes video I mentioned before, they are just given the info that the interviewer is new, not very experienced and a bit ill informed and that is basically it. As far as they know they are there for a legitimate interview in regards to talking about whatever their particular subject if interest is. Also, this is from an interview that is online (Google it as KZbin doesn't allow links) that Diane Morgan (Philomena) did explaining things:- Bolton-born comedian Diane Morgan: Although many of the people she interviews in her series are not aware of her(she feels one of two may have recognised her) she explains between, sips of water. “They are just told they are being interviewed for a BBC history documentary, I think. They are quite flattered and are keen to explain their area of expertise. We are not taking the piss out of them, but it’s nice to see them struggling and having to recalibrate their ideas.” Sometimes it looks like the guests may have twigged that this is a wind-up. One would expect TV critic Mark Lawson, for instance, to realise what is going on. It’s a technique that has been used before, famously by Sacha Baron Cohen as Ali G. Maybe others spend too much time with their heads buried in the Domesday Book. “We never make it clear what we are doing. I’m sure some of the boffins just don’t watch TV. You lull someone into a false sense of security, then slip in some weird questions when they are too polite or it’s too late to leave.”

Philomina started as a recurring character on a satirical show called Screen Wipe by the Black Mirror writer Charlie Brooker. The character was popular so they developed a few 30 minute 'documentaries'. The interviews with experts are just one part of the show, a lot of the best bits are Philomina delivering monologues straight to camera in different locations. Cunk on History and Cunk on Earth were two of the early ones. But as I'm sure one of the other muppets has suggested, Cunk on America might be right up your street.

Fab reaction! 🤣👍👍 KB, you'd really love the series these clips are from. *Cunk on Britain* (2018), starring Diane Morgan as the title character Philomena Cunk, an ill-informed investigative reporter. Only 5 eps and only 1 series. All killer, no filler. It was followed up by a similar series, *Cunk on Earth* (2022), which also has only 5 eps. Premise; Philomena Cunk (Diane Morgan) travels around the world, interviewing (real-world) experts such as Paul Bahn, Martin Kemp, Nigel Spivey, and Shirley Thompson about world history. The series introduces subjects such as the development of agriculture and early civilisation, the rise of Christianity and Islam, the Renaissance, the Industrial Revolution, the First and Second World Wars, the Cold War and the Space Race. With an eye to the future, Cunk concludes the series with a speculative comment on the possibility of AI takeover. These two shows and The Day Today and also BrassEye are the absolute best of UK comedy. They even top Peep Show and Inbetweeners (which I love!). I can't recommend these four shows enough.

Diane Morgan - or at least her character Philomena Cunk - I think originally started out as a talking head on a Satirical news programme called Newswipe which had various iterations Weekly Wipe and Anti-Viral Wipe (during the pandemic). She's also one of the characters on Netflix's "Death to 20XX". The clips you are watching belong as part of a series called "Cunk on..." and there are different names depending on the series. You might want to see if you can see her comedy series "Mandy" - not playing Philomena Cunk in them, but the stories are hilarious for a 15 minute show.
