"If there wasn't police, we could do what we want, and thats great, but Police wouldn't get to the thing they liked, which is be the police, and that would be against their human rights."
I've never heard a line that resonated more, police are just citizens pretending to protect the "law" which is always changing, crime isn't getting worse, just let people do want they want to do, it's funny how people think if police weren't around all hell would break loose, that's not even near the truth, police take longer than a pizza hut delivery driver, it's me against who over wants to try me, police would be 10 minutes out getting dunkin while I fight for what I have, never believed in cops saving me, especially for them pulling me over for tint of all things, like how about you do some real police work and leave a law abiding citizen alone 🙄
@@thekingoflordagames3517 that joke would have worked if he said that expert statistician is his middle name in this context it doesn't work but good try
Gotta love how the crime expert spends about three minutes explaining how an officer couldn't arrest themselves, with Ms. Crunk listening with a look of the utmost understanding on her face.
Her acting is so perfect in this. It's the little subtleties that really make the sketch, like her expression at 2:37. She's trying to make the "serious documentarian" face, but you can also tell she has completely lost the thread of the conversation.
@Evan Hodge very pleased you mentioned Gunston in this context. A fantastic comic creation and decades before Philomena. Diane Morgan plays it more deadpan and seriously, with Cunk less timid than Gunston and with heaps of misplaced confident about her own abilities. Really brilliant.
The beauty of this show is in the details. That last scene about “how these little floors make it easier to get between the big floors” was filmed on the tulip staircase at the queen’s house in Greenwich- which was by all accounts the first centrally unsupported staircase (at least the first in Britain). At the time it was a marvel of technology and engineering and would’ve been astonishing to all who got to see it. Such a subtle nod, yet given the significance such an amazing detail.
The idea that the fact is somewhere to be found is the whole reason these straight professors and such play along. Sometimes they really do seem perturbed.
@@jSergiu One of those comments she makes that can be both comedically enjoyed as complete tomfoolery and also pondered upon with a tiny "Wait did she actually express a deep philosophical idea in that bit?" thought at the back of your brain
It's a running joke too. "All the stain glass is gone, aside from traffic lights more proof God is dead." Para phrased from memory not sure which one it's from though.
2:47 to be fair there was one time a lawyer demonstrated how easy it would be for someone to accidentally kill themselves with a particular gun, and to demonstrate he proceeded to kill himself accidentally with it, there are some places where suicide is illegal, so technically it did happen at least once
I just love her performance at the entrance like REALLY wondering... OMG cannot believe it took me this long to discover Philomena binge watching her currently fyi
I like the buttons that make the confession come out from the defendant in the courtroom. Pressing the red button makes the truth come screaming out of them
Arresting yourself is an infinite crime glitch. If your a cop you can arrest yourself and get the case dropped and then they can’t get you for the same thing twice. Rinse and repeat your immortal
There have been accidents in court with crime reconstructions where someone accidentally killed/hurt themselves or another person. for example, during the trial for The Bathtub Bride Killer, the detectives had to demonstrate how the killer drowned the victims. They then proceeded to accidentally drowned one of they women they were using to demonstrate, and had to resuscitate her. So that could technically be called assault, and/or manslaughter.
There was a Dateline episode where a lady was pretending to be Dateline and paid a guy to do a sound bite reenactment, and right after he delivered his lines, she shot and killed him for real. So...
She is so fantastic, she is the English equivalent of Kellyanne Conway, only instead of answering questions with word salad, she asks the questions. Genius.
“Police try to stop crime, but couldn’t exist without it” I know she’s making a joke, but this is an incredibly valid point that is often the reason why the police get so much funding as opposed to social aid and wellness programs. If resources to get help were more accessible (mental, financial, social, health), then crime rates would plummet and decrease the need for police. The police don’t actually prevent crime from happening, they’re just there to punish whoever they think are criminals after a “crime” has been committed. The more they punish, the more they get paid. Anyway, Cunk says ACAB
I love "ExPerts" X= unknown or unidentified, a spurt = liquid forced thru an orifice under great pressure. Therefore a expert is An unidentified drip under pressure.
This is like teaching other beings the absolute version of how to be a human on this planet. A lesson in being human 101, very much so -how to be human for dummies
