Cunk on Britain - Season 1 (2018)

Philomena begins at the beginning, taking us right back to the beginning with the Big Bang. She also asks how dinosaurs became extinct and where in England the Romans came from.

Philomena explores The Tudors, The Georgians and the English Civil War, King Henry VIII and his chronic addiction to wives, William Shakespeare, Witchfinder General Matthew Hopkins, and Lord Horatio Nelson.

This week Philomena examines the Victorian era. Naturalist Chris Packham has the unenviable task of explaining to her how Charles Darwin's discoveries led to his Theory of Evolution.
