I'm watching it. But wondering what it has to do with Cunk on Britain.

But I think the joke is on those who watch COB and think it's teaching them something. Like Ali G did when people thought he was serious and real.

I think it's a satire, mate.

Saw her little segments as Cunk on Screen Wipe but didn’t find it funny.

Is the series any good?
Roy IN!!

It's silly, but definitely worth a watch.

My lady loves it, finds it hilarious. But she's foreign.
After a few minutes of the first one, I thought it rather silly.
The supposedly naive questions become rather tedious and the mispronunciations rather laboured.

You'd have to watch C.O.B to get the reference.

Yeah, it's a bit one-note.
Still funny though.

Exactly. The joke is on those who can't see it's a pisstake about people who are too thick to count up to 1 with their prick in their hand.
A poke at dumbing down.

You're over-thinking it.
It's a gentle piss-take.

Correct. But that's my interpretation of a gentle piss take. :D

But seriously, it's meant to go over a few people's heads which is always a good vein of comedy.

Yeah, 30 minutes of this sort of thing is about the limit, but a whole series is just tedious. Diane Morgan is much more entertaining as herself or in other comedy things she's done.
Come for the rampant misogyny, stay for the tedious bitching
