Any opinions on her work?

If it's who I am thinking of, she was mildly amusing at first but the character became very, very old very very quickly. Col is a fan though so that's just my opinion.

Yeah...I can atest to that. It was intially amusing, but I didn't make it through an entire episode because the parody was obvious and quickly went to seeing how many tropes could be jammed into the program. The problem is that the best bits are rare and much of it is tired. So, some brilliant bits embedded in a longer narrative that sends up some venue.

I love Philomena Cunk! Cunk on Earth had some really funny moments. I like the fact that the academics are in on it (they know who she really is) but play along anyway.

Oooo....I stumbled across one of the Cunk on Earth episodes, "The Renaissance Will Not Be Televised". "Renee Sauce? How many kinds of sauce are there?"
But, in a holiday mood, here, for your delight is
BAILEY'S EVERYBODY!

Well, this past holiday season, I turned on several of my American friends to Philomena. In some quarters, she caught on like a house afire. The over-educated, y'know?
It was like I was giving the gift of giggle. Fun.

I passed "Cunk on Christmas" along to a friend from Uni, and my friends with whom I used to watch "The Catherine Tate Show." They loved Philomena. Thank you!
