0:00:02 > 0:00:05Dave, I've lost my hairbrush. I couldn't borrow yours, could I?

0:00:05 > 0:00:08- Sure. There you go.- Cheers, mate.

0:00:08 > 0:00:11I guess this is what they call a brush with death.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14Oh! Um...

0:00:14 > 0:00:16I was just about to say that. No, really, I was!

0:00:16 > 0:00:20I had thought of that, you know. Because it's a brush and I'm Death.

0:00:20 > 0:00:23I thought it would be a funny thing to say when I came in, so...

0:00:26 > 0:00:29# If mummies, rats and fleas ain't your thing

0:00:29 > 0:00:32# And you don't like the sound of an exploding king

0:00:32 > 0:00:35# If you're easily scared and don't laugh at poo

0:00:35 > 0:00:38# Better turn off This show ain't for you

0:00:38 > 0:00:42# Still watching? Then let's test your brains

0:00:42 > 0:00:44# With Horrible Histories Gory Games

0:00:44 > 0:00:46# Horrible Histories Gory...

0:00:47 > 0:00:49# ..Games! #

0:00:49 > 0:00:53Hello and welcome to Gory Games with me, Dave Lamb.

0:00:53 > 0:00:56- And me, Tess Daly.- Tess Daly?

0:00:56 > 0:00:58That's what it says on my dressing room door.

0:00:58 > 0:01:02- Rattus, you don't have a dressing room.- Oh. Sorry, Tess.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05I... I wouldn't eat the raisins on your sofa.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07And I think that pretty much sets the tone for the show.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09Let's meet today's Horrible Historians.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12- Hi. I'm Maya and I'm from Wakefield.- Hello, Maya!

0:01:12 > 0:01:16- Hi, I'm Aaron and I'm from London. - Hello, Aaron!

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- Hi, I'm Olivia and I'm from Brighton.- Hello, Olivia!

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Welcome, everyone.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26And you can all play along at home too using the Gory Games app.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28Check out the CBBC website.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31You lot are playing to win Year Spheres

0:01:31 > 0:01:34and at the end of the show the person with the highest year score

0:01:34 > 0:01:37will win a prize chosen by my furry colleague.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41Oh, let me tell you, Dave - I am so excited by this prize, Dave.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43I can hardly contain myself. HE FARTS

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Oh, I haven't contained myself.

0:01:45 > 0:01:50Oh, good heavens! And I'm afraid the prize is equally disgusting.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Time to get stuck into Round One. What's it about?

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Let's go over to the Gory Grid.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58It's the Slimy Stuarts.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02So, four questions on the Slimy Stuarts coming up.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05The person who gets the most right wins the first Year Sphere,

0:02:05 > 0:02:08and your four Stuart topics are...

0:02:13 > 0:02:15So, Olivia, you get to pick first this round.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18- Which of those takes your fancy? - Charles I.

0:02:18 > 0:02:24Rattus, brace yourself, because this is a question from Death!

0:02:24 > 0:02:27THUNDERCLAP

0:02:27 > 0:02:32King Charles I's execution was a tragedy because it wasn't stupid.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35But what they did with his head afterwards certainly was.

0:02:49 > 0:02:52Let's see your answers now, please.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55Maya and Aaron have agreed on B.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57Olivia thinks it's C. What's the answer?

0:02:57 > 0:03:01The answer is... B.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03They sewed it back onto his body

0:03:03 > 0:03:05so his family could pay their last respects.

0:03:05 > 0:03:09Well, I always thought poor old Charles was badly stitched up.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11HE LAUGHS

0:03:11 > 0:03:15Excellent start, Aaron and Maya. Aaron, what topic do you fancy?

0:03:15 > 0:03:17The Great Fire.

0:03:17 > 0:03:21The Great Fire of 1666 was an accident,

0:03:21 > 0:03:24but the people of London wanted someone to blame.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27Who was accused of starting it and then executed?

0:03:39 > 0:03:41Let's see your answers now, please.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43The girls have agreed on C.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Aaron thinks the answer is B.

0:03:46 > 0:03:47Let's find out what the answer is.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51The answer is A. A French watchmaker, who was hanged,

0:03:51 > 0:03:55even though he wasn't in the country when the fire started.

0:03:55 > 0:03:56No points there. Bad luck.

0:03:56 > 0:03:59Maya, it's your turn to choose a category.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Preferably Cures.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05- That is a question from Rattus Rattus.- Oh, yes, it is.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08What did Stuarts think you should eat to cure lung disease?

0:04:08 > 0:04:12Was it A, snails boiled in milk with a few worms?

0:04:12 > 0:04:15B, toads fried in honey with a few flies?

0:04:15 > 0:04:18Or C, cows' udders baked in a snakeskin?

0:04:23 > 0:04:25Let's see your answers now, please.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29Everybody agreeing that it's C.

0:04:29 > 0:04:34- Are they all right or are they all wrong?- Well, Dave, you're all wrong!

0:04:34 > 0:04:38The answer is A, snails boiled in milk with a few worms.

0:04:38 > 0:04:43Forget about curing anything, I'd eat that just as a snack. Ha ha!

0:04:43 > 0:04:45So no points there. Bad luck.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48It's very, very close, with one question remaining in this round.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51It is a question on Spots.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Are you ready? Here comes your question.

0:04:54 > 0:04:58What did some Stuart women rub on their skin to clear up spots?

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Was it A, pigeon poo?

0:05:00 > 0:05:01B, pigeon feathers?

0:05:01 > 0:05:03Or C, pigeon blood?

0:05:07 > 0:05:10Let's see your answers now, please.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Olivia and Aaron going for A.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Maya going for B.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Let's find out what the answer is.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19The answer is C, pigeon blood.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21With a face full of pigeon blood,

0:05:21 > 0:05:24you certainly wouldn't notice a couple of spots.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26And that is the end of the round, which means Aaron and Maya,

0:05:26 > 0:05:29we have a tie-breaker situation.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Beginning with the letter G,

0:05:33 > 0:05:35what was the first name of the famous Catholic

0:05:35 > 0:05:38who planned the failed gunpowder plot of 1605?

0:05:38 > 0:05:41- TOILET FLUSHES - Guy Fawkes.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Guy Fawkes is absolutely right. Well done.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45That means it's time for you to choose your Year Sphere

0:05:45 > 0:05:47and it's time for me to say...

0:05:47 > 0:05:51All hail the potty pyramid!

0:05:51 > 0:05:54ANGELIC MUSIC

0:05:56 > 0:05:59- I love a bit of gas.- Rattus, we know. OK, Maya, choose your Year Sphere.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01But choose carefully

0:06:01 > 0:06:05because AD dates will be added to your total score

0:06:05 > 0:06:07and BC dates subtracted from it.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Winning the Stuart quiz means that Maya

0:06:09 > 0:06:11is automatically through to play the Stuart game.

0:06:11 > 0:06:15But will she be alone or will everyone get to play?

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Let's find out.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24- It's an All Play Silly Game. Hey, hey, Rattus!- Ooh! Ooh!

0:06:24 > 0:06:28So, it's off down the Time Sewer with the lot of you.

0:06:31 > 0:06:32Head first. Excellent.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36When Dutch artist Peter Lely was asked

0:06:36 > 0:06:38to paint a portrait of Oliver Cromwell,

0:06:38 > 0:06:41he was told that the picture should be utterly unflattering

0:06:41 > 0:06:43and should show every pimple, blemish and bump.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Like every photo of you, Dave. - All right, Rattus.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Cromwell wanted to be painted warts and all,

0:06:48 > 0:06:49and it's time to play...

0:06:52 > 0:06:55Three portraits of Oliver Cromwell, but where are his warts?

0:06:55 > 0:06:59Your challenge is to fire warts onto your portrait.

0:06:59 > 0:07:03The person who gets the most warts onto their Cromwell's face

0:07:03 > 0:07:04in the time allowed wins a Year Sphere.

0:07:04 > 0:07:08So, paintbrushes at the ready. Your time starts...now.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10BUZZER RINGS

0:07:10 > 0:07:13Here we go. And Aaron the first to show.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16Bang! Straight on the cheekbone.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18There's Cromwell's first wart.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20There he goes again.

0:07:20 > 0:07:25Misses. So just one wart on our three Cromwells.

0:07:25 > 0:07:31That's two for Aaron now. Wart a delivery! Warts, Rattus.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35Fair enough. So the girls yet to trouble the scorers, really.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Olivia's off the mark. Nice shot. Look at this.

0:07:38 > 0:07:42Aaron already has three warts on Cromwell's face.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Extraordinary total. He's only had five shots.

0:07:45 > 0:07:50That's amazing. But Maya is having a bit of trouble with her aim.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52Oh, it's bogey time! Did you see that, Rattus?

0:07:52 > 0:07:55Right on target there, Olivia. Tremendous.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Aaron keeps up his tremendous form with four warts.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01And Maya's got one too, right on the noggin.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03Oh! Warts are raining down on Cromwell's face.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06I'd rather be painted in a flattering way.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09You know, have the artist capture my best side.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11What's that, your back? HE LAUGHS

0:08:11 > 0:08:16Thank you, Rattus. Aaron's got six. Now Maya's level with Olivia on two.

0:08:16 > 0:08:20Great stuff... But Aaron increases his lead again.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23Absolutely brilliant. Olivia sneaking a third there.

0:08:23 > 0:08:27But I tell you what, Aaron's Cromwell is more wart than face.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30DAVE LAUGHS

0:08:30 > 0:08:3330 seconds remaining.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35So, the last 30 seconds of the game.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39Olivia's doing well on four, but there is no catching Aaron.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42Bang! Right on the hooter! Aaron's in a league of his own.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45For the girls, it's a race for second place.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48And Maya's giving it her all in these last few moments.

0:08:48 > 0:08:52Wart a game this has been, eh, Rattus! Eh? Please yourself.

0:08:52 > 0:08:56Olivia's keeping a lead... Oh, I spoke too soon!

0:08:56 > 0:09:00Bosh! Maya equalises. Can Olivia respond? Yes, she can!

0:09:00 > 0:09:02- Time's up! - SIREN WAILS

0:09:02 > 0:09:07So the girls draw on five, but Aaron will collect the Year Sphere.

0:09:07 > 0:09:10Terrific wart flinging. Superb stuff.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13Aaron, fantastic. Nine warts. Help yourself to a Year Sphere.

0:09:17 > 0:09:21There he goes. We'll find out what's in that and the other ones

0:09:21 > 0:09:24at the end of the show. Superb work. So, Round Two.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27To find out what's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31It's the frightful First World War.

0:09:31 > 0:09:32Four questions again.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35Here are your all-important First World War topics.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45- So, Aaron, it's your turn to pick first.- I'll go for Soldiers.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47True or false - all the soldiers

0:09:47 > 0:09:50in the trenches in World War I were men?

0:09:50 > 0:09:53All the soldiers in the trenches in World War I were men?

0:09:53 > 0:09:55Is that true or false?

0:09:55 > 0:09:57Let's see your answers now, please.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Aaron and Olivia think it's false.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Maya says true. What's the answer?

0:10:02 > 0:10:04It's false.

0:10:04 > 0:10:07Some women signed up too, but they had to lie on their sign-up papers

0:10:07 > 0:10:11- and pretend to be men. - Well played, Olivia and Aaron.

0:10:11 > 0:10:14And Maya, it's your turn to pick a topic.

0:10:14 > 0:10:18Em... Baboons.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21- That is a question from Rattus Rattus.- Certainly is.

0:10:21 > 0:10:25True or false - a baboon called Jackie

0:10:25 > 0:10:30became a private in the South African Army in World War I.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33A baboon called Jackie became a private in the South African Army

0:10:33 > 0:10:35in World War I.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Is that true or false?

0:10:37 > 0:10:40Interesting. Rattus, what's the answer?

0:10:40 > 0:10:41It's true! Ha ha!

0:10:41 > 0:10:45Jackie was a first-class guard. With his acute hearing,

0:10:45 > 0:10:50he could detect the enemy long before his human companions.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54Congratulations. Another two points. Olivia, what would you like?

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Parachutes, please.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58True or false -

0:10:58 > 0:11:01British pilots in World War I were not allowed parachutes.

0:11:01 > 0:11:05British pilots in World War I were not allowed parachutes.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08Is that true or false?

0:11:08 > 0:11:12Everybody has gone for true.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Let's find out if they're all right or all wrong.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16It's true.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18It was thought the pilots would fight more bravely

0:11:18 > 0:11:20if they knew they didn't have a parachute.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Tragically, this meant many pilots died unnecessarily.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26- It's horrible, but it's true. - It is true, sadly.

0:11:26 > 0:11:30And you all thought it was true, so that's a point each.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33A final question in this round is on Pensioners.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Is this true or false...

0:11:40 > 0:11:44There were pensioners fighting in the trenches in World War One.

0:11:44 > 0:11:46Is that true or is that false?

0:11:46 > 0:11:50They all think it's true. What's the answer?

0:11:50 > 0:11:53It's... true!

0:11:56 > 0:12:00There we go. Two maximum scores.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04Aaron and Olivia, you are about to go into a tie-break situation.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08Beginning with the letter G,

0:12:08 > 0:12:11what was the name of the explosive device designed to be thrown...

0:12:11 > 0:12:12- SNEEZING - Olivia.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15- Gunpowder. - Unlucky. It's not gunpowder.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17That full question now for Aaron.

0:12:17 > 0:12:21Beginning with the letter G, what was the name of the explosive device

0:12:21 > 0:12:24designed to be thrown by hand and used in World War I?

0:12:24 > 0:12:27- Grenade. - It is a grenade, Aaron. Well done.

0:12:27 > 0:12:30Help yourself to another Year Sphere.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40So, Aaron, as the World War I quiz winner,

0:12:40 > 0:12:42you're through to play the World War I game.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44But will you be going it alone

0:12:44 > 0:12:46or will everyone else be playing alongside you?

0:12:46 > 0:12:47Let's find out.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54It's a Single Player Silly Game.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56So, Aaron, off down the Time Sewer you go.

0:13:02 > 0:13:03It's time to play...

0:13:06 > 0:13:09You are a British World War I fighter pilot

0:13:09 > 0:13:13facing the most deadly German pilot of them all, the infamous Red Baron.

0:13:13 > 0:13:17Your task is to load, aim and hit the enemy planes.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19There's one point for every enemy plane you hit

0:13:19 > 0:13:21and two points if you get the Red Baron himself.

0:13:21 > 0:13:26Score six points in the time limit to win your Year Sphere.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29- Battle begins now. - KLAXON HONKS

0:13:31 > 0:13:33Look at that.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36A bit of turbulence. It's his first shot...

0:13:36 > 0:13:40- One down! - Wow! Eat that!

0:13:40 > 0:13:41German bomber is down.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43Let's see what he's got.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46- Second in a row!- At this rate,

0:13:46 > 0:13:47the war will be over by Christmas.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50That's extraordinary.

0:13:50 > 0:13:52What's he going to do with the third?

0:13:52 > 0:13:54- Very close, wasn't he? - Yes, indeed.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56I'll tell you what's happening now.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59Our first Red Baron coming across.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Oh! He's just missed him.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04If he's the Red Baron, can I be the Duke of Brown?

0:14:04 > 0:14:07If you like, Rattus.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10Wait a minute! There's another one down. That's three.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13He's halfway there and it's as if he's only just begun.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15This is impressive flying.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Oh! He's just missed that one.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20Clipped the wing, I think.

0:14:20 > 0:14:2330 seconds remaining.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25There's another one down.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28He just needs two points now. Can he hit the Red Baron?

0:14:28 > 0:14:32Yes, he can! He's won the game with time to spare.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34And what a celebration that is!

0:14:34 > 0:14:38Superb shooting. Help yourself, help yourself.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Lovely stuff.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43Right, on to Round Three.

0:14:43 > 0:14:47To find out what's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:14:47 > 0:14:51It's the Vile Victorians. Good day!

0:14:51 > 0:14:53So, four questions on the Vile Victorians

0:14:53 > 0:14:56and your all-important Victorian topics are...

0:15:02 > 0:15:04So, Maya, it's your turn to lead us off this time.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07Em... Movies.

0:15:07 > 0:15:11That is a question, Maya, from Rattus Rattus.

0:15:11 > 0:15:15In 1896, the first moving pictures were seen in public in Britain.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18But what was one of the first films called?

0:15:30 > 0:15:32Let's see your answers now, please.

0:15:32 > 0:15:35Maya and Olivia agreeing on B.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Aaron on his own here with A.

0:15:38 > 0:15:39Rattus, what's the answer?

0:15:39 > 0:15:43The answer is B, The Boxing Kangaroo.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47I mean, who'd want to watch a film called The Talking Rat?

0:15:47 > 0:15:49So that's a point each to the girls. Well played.

0:15:49 > 0:15:53- And Olivia, it's your turn to pick. - Gadgets.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56That is a prop question, Olivia.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59Hooray! Dave, I've put the prop in the cupboard.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01Yes, I'm aware of that, Rattus. But which one?

0:16:01 > 0:16:03It's in the cupboard with the prop in it.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05That's very helpful as always. Let's try this one.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09- Oh!- Wrong!

0:16:09 > 0:16:13Unless of course the prop is a boxing glove. Which it isn't.

0:16:13 > 0:16:14Second time lucky, perhaps.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17- Oh!- Ha ha!

0:16:17 > 0:16:20That was lucky! Well, for us.

0:16:20 > 0:16:21There it is.

0:16:21 > 0:16:25Thanks for your invaluable assistance as ever, Rattus.

0:16:25 > 0:16:31- Pleasure.- Right, this is a genuine Victorian invention, but what is it?

0:16:45 > 0:16:47The girls have both gone for C.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Aaron has gone for A.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52And I can tell you the answer is C.

0:16:52 > 0:16:57They are eye massagers. Well done, the girls. A point each there.

0:16:57 > 0:17:02- Aaron, it's your turn to choose a category.- Cures, please.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05A Victorian doctor at Brompton Hospital in London

0:17:05 > 0:17:08treated tuberculosis with some weird cures.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10Which one of these was not one of them?

0:17:10 > 0:17:12A, gas pumped up the bottom?

0:17:12 > 0:17:16B, snake poo mixed with woodstain?

0:17:16 > 0:17:19Or C, lion wee up the nose?

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Let's see your answers now, please.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Aaron and Maya have gone for B.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Olivia has gone for C.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Let's find out what the answer is.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37The answer is C. He didn't try lion wee up the nose,

0:17:37 > 0:17:40but he really did mix boa constrictor poo

0:17:40 > 0:17:44with creosote used for staining wood, and applied it to the chest.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47If that failed, he pumped gases up your behind.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50HE LAUGHS With my bottom,

0:17:50 > 0:17:52gases usually go the other way. HE FARTS

0:17:52 > 0:17:56Rattus, we are all very aware of that.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Brilliant, Olivia. Excellent answer. You're in the lead

0:17:58 > 0:18:01with one more question. And here it comes now.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03The Great Exhibition of 1851

0:18:03 > 0:18:07was a festival celebrating the British Empire.

0:18:07 > 0:18:09It was held in the newly-built Crystal Palace,

0:18:09 > 0:18:11but what was the big problem?

0:18:11 > 0:18:14A, there were no toilets?

0:18:14 > 0:18:16B, the building was too hot?

0:18:16 > 0:18:19Or C, there were birds trapped inside?

0:18:24 > 0:18:26Let's see your answers now, please.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28You've all gone for C.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30Let's find out if you're all right.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32The answer is C.

0:18:32 > 0:18:36Sparrows became trapped inside and started pooing on people.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38Dreadful business!

0:18:38 > 0:18:42Well done, everyone. That's a point apiece.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44And, Olivia, you've got maximum points again,

0:18:44 > 0:18:48but this time it's enough to earn you a Year Sphere.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53Olivia, that's fantastic. You have won the Victorian quiz

0:18:53 > 0:18:55so you're through to play the Victorian game,

0:18:55 > 0:18:59but will you be going it alone or will the others be going with you?

0:18:59 > 0:19:00Let's find out.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07It's a Single Player Brainy Game, so I hope you're feeling clever.

0:19:07 > 0:19:12Off down the Time Sewer with you.

0:19:12 > 0:19:13Goodbye!

0:19:13 > 0:19:17Isambard Kingdom Brunel was as brilliant at engineering

0:19:17 > 0:19:19as he was terrible at magic.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22In 1843, he got a coin stuck in his throat

0:19:22 > 0:19:24while performing a magic trick and nearly choked to death.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28It took a clever device designed by his father to dislodge it.

0:19:28 > 0:19:29It's time to play...

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Your challenge is to finish the mechanism.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38Place all the cogs in the right place, and by turning the wheel

0:19:38 > 0:19:40you'll flip Brunel upside down,

0:19:40 > 0:19:42dislodge the coin and save his life.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Succeed and you win a Year Sphere.

0:19:44 > 0:19:47But you'd better be quick because the clock is ticking,

0:19:47 > 0:19:50and your time starts now.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53So there's the solution just for you at home

0:19:53 > 0:19:56and here goes Olivia, trying to save Brunel.

0:19:56 > 0:19:57Coin stuck in his throat.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01Do I have to tell you all at home that you should never swallow coins?

0:20:01 > 0:20:04It is extremely dangerous. The first cog wasn't right, by the way.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Let's see how she gets on with this one.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10The main cog in by the crank cog is already in place.

0:20:10 > 0:20:14- That's easy for you to say.- Well, I wish it was. In goes the second one.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17That is beautiful. Now she needs a large one.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19Ooh, decisions, decisions.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23I think that one may be too small,

0:20:23 > 0:20:25but she's got a very methodical approach.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27She's worked it out instantly.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30- She really knows what she's doing here, Olivia.- She certainly does.

0:20:30 > 0:20:3230 seconds remaining.

0:20:32 > 0:20:36There's 30 seconds left, but it's all going terrifically well.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Just got to do a bit of jiggery-pokery with that.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40It's going to slide in lovely.

0:20:40 > 0:20:43Now she needs a tiny one, and a tiny one she's already retrieved.

0:20:43 > 0:20:47It's all there. All she's got to do now is turn the handle.

0:20:47 > 0:20:52- But oh, my word! It's stuck. - Oh, no!- No, it's fine.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54And Barmy Brunel is upside down.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57The coin's in the roof of his mouth.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00Game, set and match to Olivia.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04Help yourself to a Year Sphere straight away. Excellent.

0:21:08 > 0:21:09OK, the Final Round.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13It's over to the Gory Grid one last time to find out what we've got.

0:21:13 > 0:21:17It's the Measly Middle Ages.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20It's the Final Round, which means there are no questions to answer.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22Instead, it's time for our big

0:21:22 > 0:21:27- All Play Middle Ages End Game of Feeling Eel. And, Rattus?- Yes?

0:21:27 > 0:21:30- This is a Stupid Death Game. - THUNDERCLAP

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Everybody, get down that Time Sewer.

0:21:34 > 0:21:39- Wait for it, wait for it, go! - It smells!- Good work, Aaron.

0:21:39 > 0:21:40Whee!

0:21:42 > 0:21:47As a Stupid Death Game, this means saying hello to you know who.

0:21:47 > 0:21:52Hello! Now, as absolutely everyone in the world knows,

0:21:52 > 0:21:55King Henry I died from eating too many eel-like fish

0:21:55 > 0:21:58- known as lampreys. Ha ha! - Actually, Death,

0:21:58 > 0:22:01I don't think everyone in the world does know that.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04Honestly, what do they teach in schools nowadays?

0:22:04 > 0:22:08Anyway, the aim of this game is to fetch your slimy lampreys,

0:22:08 > 0:22:11run down your lane and feed them into Henry I's gaping cakehole.

0:22:11 > 0:22:16- Or in this case, eelhole! Ha ha! - THUNDERCLAP

0:22:16 > 0:22:19The person who gets the most fish into their Henry's mouth

0:22:19 > 0:22:23within the time limit wins themselves a Year Sphere.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26And your time starts now!

0:22:26 > 0:22:29And they're off! It's lampreys a go-go.

0:22:29 > 0:22:33But brace yourself, Rattus, because I'm afraid this is going to be grim.

0:22:33 > 0:22:37The slimy eel's being forced in there.

0:22:37 > 0:22:38RETCHING

0:22:38 > 0:22:41But Olivia's first to deliver,

0:22:41 > 0:22:44with Maya and Aaron close behind.

0:22:44 > 0:22:48And you have to say Maya will be keen to win this game

0:22:48 > 0:22:49and bag herself another Year Sphere,

0:22:49 > 0:22:54but she's got her work cut out here because Olivia is on fire!

0:22:54 > 0:22:58Look at this. They're neck and neck - and neck.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01Olivia is like lightning across the ground here.

0:23:01 > 0:23:05- Like rats up a drainpipe, Dave! - You'd know.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08Those lampreys couldn't be more slippery

0:23:08 > 0:23:11if they were covered in engine oil, chicken fat

0:23:11 > 0:23:15and wrapped in an old banana peel,

0:23:15 > 0:23:18which is also a delicious recipe idea.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20The reasons for your bad breath

0:23:20 > 0:23:22are becoming evidently clear.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24What a woofer!

0:23:24 > 0:23:26Back to the game, though, and it's very close indeed.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29Three apiece now, with Olivia just keeping a small lead,

0:23:29 > 0:23:32but I tell you what, anything can happen here.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35The fourth eel being delivered there for Olivia.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37And for Maya. This is very close.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40Aaron is flapping that fish all over Henry's face

0:23:40 > 0:23:42with his tail-first technique. That'll cost him time.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45Dave, you know what they say, the only good fish

0:23:45 > 0:23:48is a dead fish that you find rotting in a gutter.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51I think it might only be rats that say that.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Oh! Five for Olivia.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56Five for Maya. Time check, Death.

0:23:56 > 0:24:00Tick-tock! Your time is running out.

0:24:00 > 0:24:03HE LAUGHS

0:24:03 > 0:24:07"There's 30 seconds left" would have done, Death!

0:24:07 > 0:24:08Aaron rams another one home there

0:24:08 > 0:24:12and, for me, these lampreys are getting slimier.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15Olivia just about clinging on to her lead. She's got six.

0:24:15 > 0:24:20Seconds to go now, but Maya's still in this. She's got six too now!

0:24:20 > 0:24:23Aaron's going to get his sixth in, but I think it'll be

0:24:23 > 0:24:26a straight fight between Olivia and Maya. This is so, so exciting!

0:24:26 > 0:24:30Olivia's there. If she can get this in, she'll win the game.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34- Can she do it? Yes!- Time's up. - Olivia's done it!

0:24:34 > 0:24:37She'll be delighted with that, as will Henry I.

0:24:37 > 0:24:41Fantastic eeling all round. Terrific work.

0:24:41 > 0:24:45The final scores were six, six and seven.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47So that is very, very close.

0:24:47 > 0:24:50The winner of the final Year Sphere is Olivia.

0:24:50 > 0:24:52CHEERING

0:24:53 > 0:24:57# It's small, it's round Inside a date is found

0:24:57 > 0:25:01# Year Sphere, Year sphere! # THEY LAUGH

0:25:01 > 0:25:04It's time to count up those Year Spheres.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06Remember, AD dates are added to the total

0:25:06 > 0:25:09and BC dates are subtracted from it.

0:25:09 > 0:25:13It's the moment of truth. Olivia, open up that first Year Sphere.

0:25:15 > 0:25:201776 AD. America declares independence from Britain.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23Let's open up your second one.

0:25:23 > 0:25:251815 AD.

0:25:25 > 0:25:29That was the battle of Waterloo, that year. And open up the last one.

0:25:31 > 0:25:37Oh, no! Oh, dear, oh, dear. 9000 BC.

0:25:37 > 0:25:42Stone Age man started to use bow and arrow round about then.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45That's left you with -5409.

0:25:45 > 0:25:51Let's see what happens. Aaron, let's have a look what you've got.

0:25:51 > 0:25:55You've not started brilliantly. 30 BC. The death of Queen Cleopatra.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59So you've got a bit of catching up to do yourself.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Let's have a look at that second one.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04Now we're on track. 1969 AD.

0:26:04 > 0:26:08Man landed on the moon that year. Let's open up that third one.

0:26:08 > 0:26:10This is crucial.

0:26:10 > 0:26:161099 AD. The First Crusade started in that year.

0:26:16 > 0:26:21That's amazing. That's a score of 3038 points.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24Now, Maya, this could be a challenge.

0:26:24 > 0:26:28Let's see what you've got in that Sphere in any case.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31It's 79 AD.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34The Colosseum opened in Rome, but that's enough for second place.

0:26:34 > 0:26:42But today's winner with 3038 points is Aaron.

0:26:42 > 0:26:43Fantastic work!

0:26:43 > 0:26:47And what sort of quiz show would this be without an amazing prize?

0:26:47 > 0:26:50Well, this sort of quiz show, because all our prizes

0:26:50 > 0:26:53are fished out of the Time Sewer by my furry friend here.

0:26:53 > 0:26:55So what have you got for us today, Rattus?

0:26:55 > 0:26:58Well, Dave, I think you have to hand it to me for today's prize,

0:26:58 > 0:27:01which is going to come in really handy.

0:27:01 > 0:27:05So please give Dave a big hand as he hands over...

0:27:05 > 0:27:08It's a hand, isn't it? Of course it's a hand. It is a hand.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10It's one of the right hands

0:27:10 > 0:27:14that Egyptian soldiers would cut off of their dead enemies after a battle.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17They'd then count up all the hands

0:27:17 > 0:27:19to work out how many enemies they'd killed.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21Do you need a hand with that, Dave?

0:27:21 > 0:27:25I think that's enough of the hand stuff. Congratulations, Aaron.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28There you go. Apologies, of course, as always.

0:27:28 > 0:27:29On the bright side,

0:27:29 > 0:27:33at least you don't have to go home down the Time Sewer,

0:27:33 > 0:27:36like our valiant runners-up, Olivia and Maya. Off you go.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39Down the Time Sewer. Good luck!

0:27:39 > 0:27:43You won't be cheering when you see what you've got to get through!

0:27:43 > 0:27:46If you want to play along at home next time,

0:27:46 > 0:27:49don't forget to download the Gory Games app.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52- Ha ha!- Urgh!

0:27:54 > 0:27:58Ha ha!

0:27:59 > 0:28:02- Well, I've been Dave Lamb. - And I've been Rattus Rattus.

0:28:02 > 0:28:07- You most definitely have.- And that was Gory Games. Goodbye!- Goodbye.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09# Horrible Histories Gory...

0:28:09 > 0:28:10# Games! #
