Kate Williams is extremely well known in the U.K. She is an academic and she presents history programmes in prime time on the BBC. In other words, very comfortable on camera with a personality that delights.
Interestingly, they called it mediaeval (middle ages) at the time, because they believed they were between Biblical times and the second coming Millennium, the thousand years of Christ's reign on Earth which they, like modern Americans, believed was imminent.
That joke is playing with words to reach a non-sensical statement. As a most of hers. Karl made sincere considerations that were funny in their naivety but never non sensical. The humour there came from contrasting his wild speculations with Ricky’s scientism and Stephen’s scepticism.
I love the ones where the experts 'get' Philomena/Diane and just play along. I'm not sure all of them quite do, though. Prof Ronald Hutton is one of my faves.
I had a few. One of them was a young English woman, teaching... English. I made so much progress that I promised myself I'd one day go and live there. So I did. From 🇨🇵
I wouldn't be surprised if this expert actually has some improv training - she's literally saying "yes" to whatever ridiculous thing Philomena is dishing and seems to want to play too.
''Cryogenically or something''. I just love the irony of Cunk playing someone who completely miss the point with lack of common knowledge, but somehow still understands that the application of cryogenic technology fits within the context of the conversation, and acutally knowing about concept itself.
Seems pretty staged, the whole thing. Not saying it isn’t funny. I think she knew it was an act, though. I’m American, I’ve never heard of either of these women, and I knew it was satire about 10 seconds in. I’m also sort of Asperger’s-ey so I can easily fall for this. So I’m pretty sure the professor was just going along with the bit.
I personally find humor is one of the most attractive traits but these two are to die for in every aspect ... though once you are dead that ruins the entire day
you can always tell someone who has extensive experience dealing with freshman BA majors who have been told in highschool that they are really.... really.... smart
I love how these interviews always have ‘vs’ in the title. As if it’s a battle and victory for Philomena would be the mental destruction of the other 😂
Eh, what’s this then? Couldn’t find it with a google. By the way, everyone is pussyfooting around it I think. Like ‘sisters’ etc. I think clearly they are soulmates, star crossd, and are destined to marry.
I like how Kate Williams treats her like her peer, asking questions, agreeing with her...
It honestly makes me respect her EVEN more. Lol
Surprises me, until now I hadn’t thought Kate Williams had much of a sense of humour.
That's how you get around Philomena.
I think she fully understood what was happening played the game sardonically
How can so many people think that these are not precontrived SKITS
It’s giving sister vibes I love it like older sister entertaining her kid sister. That professor is amazing
An adorable comparison.
I've got the hots for professor Williams. Posh totty, flame-haired temptress.
completely right!
She's very kind and not condescending ❤
The interaction with each of her subjects is fascinating.
Contrast Ms.Williams with Dr. Jackson for instance.
Equally humorous.
“They all say that don’t they?” … “They do.” 🤣🤣 oh please stop my sides are aching 😂
Watch out for popes who act like a "Nice Guy"!
The knowing squint she gives her.
"Now I'm feeling less happy with him...coming down my chimney."
Pure gold!
😉
These two had great chemistry, professor Kate is hilarious 😅
They look like two best friends in school matter-of-factly discussing Santa.
Nice! Discussing a mass murderer, homocidal Henry VIII as if he's normal. Murdering his wives. It's like a chat Hitler how he liked his cats.
"they all say that, don't they."
"they do."
My favourite exchange in this.
Gold
Kate Williams is a reasonably regular presence on UK comedy panel shows, so she's playing along like a pro.
She's so funny, the two of them were brilliant. Philomena has beautiful eyes.
So does Kate. They're hypnotic.
Smash
Philo looks eternally sad.
She looks like my aunt when she's drunk :D
@@lagrangepoint9386 She who?
I think Poor Katie was struggling to hold it together a couple of times there!😂
Is Jesuses or Jesii?
These guys were on the same wavelength hahaha
They're ladies.
@jonhohensee3258 😂😂😂 learn English. You must think that 'Mankind', a word that they say in this show, means only men too.

Mariam-webster dictionary. STFU and study harder.
@@jakes-dev1337guys implies a man in the modern sense. Mankind is different because it comes from old English when man meant human.
@@alinaqirizvi1441
No, it doesn’t. Many people commonly use guys as a unisex term. I have no idea what planet you are on but it isn’t Britain clearly.
Unlike some of the other professors though this particular woman has done comedy shows before so shes well aware of diane morgan and is ready for her.

@@zoegenevieveperry8663 exactly what I just said.
"How did they know they were halfway through time".
Strong Karl Pilkington vibes. I don't know where to start with that.
Karl and Cunk...could you just imagine what that would turn out like!😅
Interestingly, they called it mediaeval (middle ages) at the time, because they believed they were between Biblical times and the second coming Millennium, the thousand years of Christ's reign on Earth which they, like modern Americans, believed was imminent.

Kate is so good at being kind that really plays well with philomena, its so funny
Kate is a legend, she clearly knew the game and a joy to produce. Total professional.
What I love is how passionate these scholars are, they just enjoy talking about their favourite subject! God bless them all ❤
The last sentence. I nearly suffocated laughing.
Try taking a breath beforehand.
I know. I have COPD and I'm on oxygen. So this video is very hard for me.
yeah that line got me
She almost breaks in the beginning 0:11 😂😂😂
They laugh all the time but it is edited out.
"Now I'm feeling less.... happy... with him coming down my chimney" 😂😂😂😂
"Is it Jesuses or Jezi?"
"Now I'm less happy about him coming down my chimney."
😂👏
This professor really has beautiful vintage looks
"They all say that don't they"
LEGEND!
What a lovely kind diplomatic person kate williams is. She really knows how to treat people. Lovely woman
She's done comedy panel shows before so this isn't new for her she knows what's coming with Diane.
Getting to a fight over whether god or jesus is better is already extremely funny.
To introduce someone from Tudor times to today, you'd have to gently introduce them to new concepts. I'd start by showing them planking.
Central heating. Oh, wait..... do you britishers have that yet?
@@nephewbob7264 not anymore with our thieving bastard energy companies and a government that encourages them
@@nephewbob7264 Or proper dentistry
Two completely *Brilliant* women who are completely .... brilliant!
Wonderfully gentle humour, very edgy too, Kate Williams and Philomena Cunk is a brilliant combination, love to hear them discuss Elizabeth 1.
So British. As a French, I love it, from the Monthy to Ab Fab, and this of course.
You can see her now and then stifling a smile 😂 would love to see the outtakes on these
Prof. Kate. How she kept a straight face is beyond me. ❤
2:54 Is Jesuses the right term? Is it Jesii? 😂😂😂
And we’re saved by figures of Jesus. Brilliant. Such quick wit. 😂😂😂
Both of them are lovely❤
Kate's worked with Tony Robinson . She's been well trained for this 🤣
I love the ones where the experts 'get' Philomena/Diane and just play along. I'm not sure all of them quite do, though. Prof Ronald Hutton is one of my faves.
Had I had such a professor in my days, I would have been the first one in class and last one to leave.

I wouldn't be surprised if this expert actually has some improv training - she's literally saying "yes" to whatever ridiculous thing Philomena is dishing and seems to want to play too.
So far she was the best to interview
A test of the straight face that I pray none of us will have to endure.
''Cryogenically or something''.
I just love the irony of Cunk playing someone who completely miss the point with lack of common knowledge, but somehow still understands that the application of cryogenic technology fits within the context of the conversation, and acutally knowing about concept itself.
The great thing is - Philomena is just an act - Kate is proper bonkers!

@@leahcimolrac1477Every expert "interviewed" by Cunk has been told in advance that it's comedy.
That necklace she’s wearing at the start is gorgeous.
"Coming down my chimney."😂
As I recall, Nicolaus punched Arias in the face at the first council at Nicaea. But that was 325 and I was very young at the time.
They’re both a national treasure.
Kate Williams is like “these are really good questions omg” lol
I love this woman lol The dry comedy is right up my alley. Keep up the Great work :D
Brilliant, brilliant!! Dr. Williams plays it like a pro! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍
Being able to relate with others is a sign of her high intelligence. And Professor Kate Williams is also very smart.
Is it me, or is Kate Williams channeling Helena Bonham Carter?
She just seems intensely bonkers in all the best ways 🤣
Kate & Diane are both wonderful. ❤️
I personally find humor is one of the most attractive traits but these two are to die for in every aspect ... though once you are dead that ruins the entire day
Incredible performances
Oh that last one... We needed Kate's reaction to that!!!
Thank you Prof Kate for helping me understand Cunk on
One of her best bits yet!
Love both of them 😊😊
Two wonderful, intelligent, funny women together, sheer joy.
I think I'm in love with both of them ! It;s incredible 🥰😊
I think the Professor needs a spinoff show of her own ! She did well.
That's the kind of conversation you have with your bestie when you're both stoned at 2 am in your kitchen in a middle of your college year
Diane you are a legend of comedy😊
2:39 you can see her trying not to laugh lmfaoooo
No hun, she's not attempting to hide any smile. She looks serious to me
I think 3:22 is a much better example here lol
These 2 are such a perfect fit with each other.
Kate being an absolute legend here with a very def stress on her face trying not to laugh out loud
I'm sure they had a good laugh. How can you keep serious ?
“Now I feel less happy with him coming down my chimney” 😂😅😂😂😂😂
why does she get so little views? she got millions on tiktok and yt shorts
I don’t think this is an official channel
Inflated numbers as well. Every click is a view.
Tiktok views mean very little. Just scrolling through barely watching.
Kate got the assignment
I know I wouldn't want him coming down my chimney either! That would really be scary.
you can always tell someone who has extensive experience dealing with freshman BA majors who have been told in highschool that they are really.... really.... smart
I'm so in love with Diane Morgan.
I love this interaction. I hope they became friends.
That is why he says "Ho, HO, Ho!"
They met their matches! Lmfao! Perfect 😅
Hilarious. Straight faced experts are real stars!
Everyone in Britain must know the joke by now.
I love how these interviews always have ‘vs’ in the title. As if it’s a battle and victory for Philomena would be the mental destruction of the other 😂
Reading the "vs" in the video title had me shoot my coke out of my nose.
Kate Williams is a lovely lady, fist watched her comments on the drama Versailles, she was a great sport, clever and lovely
2 of my favourite redheads ever.
Fair play, but I am not quite settled on how I feel about the phrase, "Father Christmas coming down my chimney".
kate is very amazing with her responses. no matter cunk's wierd question she handle it just fantastic. she know what she do well.
Masterpiece ❤
Ahh! Her eyebrows seemed better for a second. I wonder what order the clips are chronologically..?
The sarposity of reward, I was just intrigued to know who Kate Williams is
Matt Baker The Pope 😂... im dead , dont know why it made me laugh so much. 😂😂
So Richard Gere was like St. Nick in Pretty Woman. I always knew that was a Christmas movie 🎄🧑🎄
Professor Williams is fantastic. She’s so unflappable it’s hard to believe she’s a civilian.
God damn this is so funny. Love this 😂
Kate Williams is superb in this
This is the Kate Williams who thought Algeria was Egypt.
Eh, what’s this then? Couldn’t find it with a google. By the way, everyone is pussyfooting around it I think. Like ‘sisters’ etc. I think clearly they are soulmates, star crossd, and are destined to marry.
@@agin1519 my error. It was Mali, not Algeria.
@@donepearce Bless. I even watched that, but it was as a binge watch long ago. Both occasions of top comedy work!
UNIQUE....GEORGOUS AND VERY FUNNY
Kate is a good sport.
The world doesn't deserve any of these two, or them pairing up.
This is how I’ve heard my mum and dad talk 😅
She's here to be a star just as much as cunk
Coming down your chimney, is that a euphemism? 😅
It’s like watching a pair of crazy high history students 😂
Two amazing women
Both women are brilliant.
professor kate williams has an incredible voice tbh
Dr. Kate is very game.
