I can understand that, Satire is fairly new, having been invented in the early 90s by the famous French philosopher Jean-Paul Satire who was inspired by the dance/funk ballad 'Pump up the Jam!' by Technotronic.

Is that Katherine Parkinson?

No, it's the famous journalist/documentarian Philomena Cunk, from her series Cunk on Earth.
