Cunk On... Britain Complete Pack

. Cunk approaches world-class historians and experts with questions so profoundly stupid that they become philosophical. By asking whether the Magna Carta was written on a "giant fruit roll-up" or if King Henry VIII had "too many wives or just the right amount to be annoying," the show highlights the absurdity of national myths.
