From Philomena's hard-hitting interviews

Here’s almost six minutes of deleted scenes from the feature-length special Cunk On Life.

In it, Diane Morgan’s pioneering documentary-maker Philomena Cunk puts some serious questions to some serious people… 

In an interview to promote the show, writer Charlie Brooker said there was so much wasted material from the interviews, as often hours of footage were shot for just a couple of minutes of TV time.

He said: ‘ I've learned, since we did Cunk on Earth, that you can also upload clips later to social media out of context, and they work. You don't have to worry about where they sit. 

‘So this time while we were going through the material, instead of just deleted things and dragging into a big burning bin, we were going "We’ll mark that for later".’
