guests being confused by Philomena Cunk for 5 minutes straight again

world war two why did the British build  bombers to attack their own territory   how do you mean well the Lancaster bombers what was the world like before Isaac Newton  discovered gravity was everything just floating   up to the sky well gravity was always there so  he just took the credit for it because he had   come up with laws of motion and things like that  gravity was a major part of his understanding of   the world If gravity is real as you seem to  be claiming how come it doesn't work on kites   why do they keep making Jane Austen's books into  films and TV shows there's only about five of them   isn't there whereas like there's 50 Mr Men  books and they haven't done all of those yet   I think there are lots of reasons for that   um people love the love stories uh they like  the costumes um they're also wonderful books   with lots of opportunities for for humor  we're talking about Jane Austen or Mr Men   probably both who's your favorite Mr mum Mr  Tickle probably yeah I love Mr Tickle what's the most political thing that's ever happened  in Britain um I'm not sure think I mean I think um gosh that's a that's that's that's a a tricky  question in the sense that there are definitely   degrees of uh gosh what's the most political is it so  there are lots of things that are   straightforwardly political and then there are  other things that are not the sort of halfway   I guess but um I can't I genuinely can't  identify the most political second most how did sir Walter Raleigh invent the potato   well he didn't invent the potato in that I  think that anyone actually has ever invented   a root vegetable because they're obviously being  cultivated and used by people living in the   Americas when he arrived there when Sir Walter  Raleigh first saw potatoes was he scared of them   I think that when Sir Walter Riley first saw  potatoes not that we've only documented records   on the moment when he first beheld a potato or a  field of potatoes but I don't think he was scared   of them this is a buccaneering character and  I think that he probably was able to take on   um and manage his emotions whilst engaging with  potatoes at first sight King Arthur came a lot didn't he I I think you mean that he's associated  with the court of Camelot no it definitely says King Arthur came a lot   Camelot Camelot yeah it's it's his court where he  where he held court it's it's her place all right   but do we know if he came a lot or like just the  same as an average man like about a tablespoon the only evidence I have in that regard  is that he is said to have had one child   right so probably not probably not why did Stone  Age people bury all their stuff underground were   they worried someone might steal it no that's how  we find it it wasn't always underground it was on   the top the reason we find it as archaeologists  is that we go out and we dig it up oh what did   where did the Romans come from begin with they came from  Rome and then they came from the Roman Empire   right but where in Britain did they come from not  from Britain they came from Rome which is in Italy   right well this is about the history of Britain  so where in Britain did they come from well the   Rings came from Rome and they headed northwards  and conquered most of Europe and then they crossed   the English Channel and they conquered about half  of Britain and where did they go once they were   in Britain were they trying to get to Scotland  but they decided it wasn't worth the effort of   going there yeah I felt that if Nelson was such a  hero why did we banish him up that big pole   it's not a banishment this was a a national  celebration so this is very much a if you like   a symbol of British Victory and pride and honoring  of the man who had been so intimately associated   with delivering victory at Trafalgar he's so  high up personally sort of out of eye shot and   he's getting shot on by birds yeah I mean it's  it's it's uh couldn't we have had him a little   bit lower so that we can have a look at him well  it's a fair point I mean it's just like a joke
