Thought this might be of interest:

As part of the upcoming BBC Shakespeare festival, there willbe a one-off, half hour special of Philomena Cunk's Moments of Wonder.

Quote:

Not satisfied with discovering historical figures such as Churchill in black-and-white times, Weekly Wipe's dim-witted Philomena Cunk is now going to learn about the Bard.

As part of the BBC Shakespeare Festival 2016, the character from the Charlie Brooker series is getting her own half-hour BBC Two show called Cunk on Shakespeare - A Moments of Wonder Special.
Quote:

The BBC said: "Unrivalled wordsmith. Unequalled genius. Scholar of the Human Condition. Philomena Cunk is the ideal candidate to give the BBC Two audience a comprehensive guide to William Shakespeare. ​

The thing that irritates me is I always get those targeted product ads after I've bought the product. I'm still getting ads for the specific rug I bought for our living room like 9 months ago. I mean, I do get that their biggest lost-sale opportunity comes from people who put stuff in their cart and then chicken out and don't buy it, but if they're already mining this much data, can't they mine just a little more and figure out that I already bought the dang thing?
