Philomena Cunk is on a festive mission to track down the true meaning of Christmas, and find out exactly what it wants. It's an insightful documentary which takes her on a journey from pagan winter festivals and the nativity story, via 'Sir Charles Dickings', all the way up to today's obsession with Santa. Along the way Philomena will be grilling a variety of experts, trying to expose the truth about Christmas, such as why people still put up with 'brussels sprouts'.

"How many three wise men where there"
Quite possibly cunk at her best. Basically ever single line of this is funny. I maintain that a cunk x partridge crossover would be the best thing to come to tv, possibly ever.
