0:00:02 > 0:00:05# If mummies, rats and fleas ain't your thing
0:00:05 > 0:00:07# And you don't like the sound of an exploding king
0:00:07 > 0:00:10# If you're easily scared and don't laugh at poo
0:00:10 > 0:00:13# Better turn off This show ain't for you
0:00:13 > 0:00:17# Still watching? Then let's test your brains
0:00:17 > 0:00:20# With Horrible Histories Gory Games
0:00:20 > 0:00:23# Horrible Histories Gory...
0:00:23 > 0:00:24# ..Games! #
0:00:24 > 0:00:28Hello, and welcome to Gory Games, with me, Dave Lamb.
0:00:28 > 0:00:31You may recognise my voice from Come Dine With Me.
0:00:31 > 0:00:32And me, Rattus Rattus.
0:00:32 > 0:00:37You may recognise me from I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.
0:00:37 > 0:00:38I was one of the rats!
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Let's just get on with the show,
0:00:40 > 0:00:42and meet today's horrible historians.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hi. I'm Natalie and I'm from Manchester.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Hello there, Natalie.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47Hi, I'm Dray and I'm from Coventry.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Hello, Dray.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51Hi, I'm Mimi and I'm from Liverpool.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Hello, Mimi.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Welcome, everyone. And you can play along at home, too,
0:00:57 > 0:00:59using the Gory Games app.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Check out the CBBC website.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Right, you lot are playing to win Year Spheres.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Yes, and at the end of the show the person with the highest year score
0:01:09 > 0:01:14will win a prize of my choosing that can only be described as fabulous.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18Or putrid, fetid, distasteful, or rank.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Like I said, Dave, fabulous.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Yes, let's just get this show on the road, shall we, with round one.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26What's it about? It's over to the Gory Grid to find out.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30It's the Nasty Knights.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33So four questions on knights coming up.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37The person who gets the most right wins the first Year Sphere.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41And your four knight topics are -
0:01:44 > 0:01:49Mimi, you pick first this round. Which of those takes your fancy?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Toilets.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53That is a question from Rattus Rattus.
0:01:53 > 0:01:54Certainly is.
0:01:54 > 0:01:58True or false? When you went to the toilet in a castle
0:01:58 > 0:02:01your poo dropped straight down into the moat below.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04So, when you went to the toilet in a castle,
0:02:04 > 0:02:07your poo dropped straight down into the moat below.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Is that true or is that false?
0:02:09 > 0:02:14OK, the girls both think it's true. Dray thinks it's false.
0:02:14 > 0:02:15Who's right?
0:02:15 > 0:02:19It's true. So any goldfish in the moat were soon brown fish!
0:02:19 > 0:02:20RATTUS LAUGHS
0:02:20 > 0:02:22A charming image(!)
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Well done, Mimi and Natalie. That's the first points to you.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28Mimi, you get an eyeball. Natalie, a skull for you.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30No brains as yet, Dray, but there's plenty of time
0:02:30 > 0:02:32and, Dray, it's your turn to pick a topic.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Can I have tournaments?
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Is this true or false?
0:02:41 > 0:02:44So, what do you think? True or false?
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Let's see your answers now, please.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Everyone's gone for false. Are they all right? Let's find out.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52The answer is it's false.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55In fact, one of the rules of the tournament
0:02:55 > 0:02:57was don't aim to kill an opponent.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00Well played, everyone. Points all round there.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02Natalie, it's your turn to pick a topic.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Um, can I have games, please?
0:03:06 > 0:03:11True or false? In 1477, King Edward IV outlawed archery practice.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14So, King Edward IV outlawed archery practice.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Is that true or is that false?
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Mimi and Dray both think it's true.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Natalie is the only one who thinks that's false.
0:03:22 > 0:03:23Let's find out, shall we?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25It's false.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28In 1477, King Edward outlawed the game of skittles
0:03:28 > 0:03:31because it was so popular people were playing it
0:03:31 > 0:03:35instead of practising their archery, which was a vital skill for battle.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Natalie, well played. One skull for you,
0:03:38 > 0:03:41meaning you're in the lead with one question left in this round,
0:03:41 > 0:03:45and that question is on stairs, and it's coming up right now.
0:03:45 > 0:03:50True or false? Most stairways in castle towers go up clockwise.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54So, most stairways in castle towers go up clockwise.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Is that true or false?
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Natalie and Mimi agreeing again, both thinking it's true.
0:03:59 > 0:04:00Dray thinks it's false.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Let's find out what the answer is.
0:04:02 > 0:04:08True. If you're defending your castle and someone chases you up a tower,
0:04:08 > 0:04:10then it's easier for a right-handed swordsman
0:04:10 > 0:04:13to back up the spiral stairs and fight if the stairs are clockwise.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Not just a pretty face, eh?
0:04:16 > 0:04:17Not even that, unfortunately.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Well done, Natalie, and well done, Mimi. That's a point apiece,
0:04:21 > 0:04:24and at the end of the round with four out of four, Natalie,
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- you have won the quiz. - CHEERING
0:04:27 > 0:04:30So it's time to choose your Year Sphere from...
0:04:30 > 0:04:34DEEP VOICE: ..the pyramid of doom!
0:04:34 > 0:04:38CHOIR: # Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah!
0:04:38 > 0:04:39- Whoa!- Wait a minute, Rattus.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42A, that is my bit, and B,
0:04:42 > 0:04:45it's the potty pyramid!
0:04:45 > 0:04:49I thought pyramid of doom sounded more dramatic. You know, more doomy.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51I don't want doom, I want potty!
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Ooh!
0:04:53 > 0:04:55I'm so sorry. Natalie, please, help yourself,
0:04:55 > 0:04:58but pick carefully because AD dates will be added to your score,
0:04:58 > 0:05:01but BC dates will be subtracted.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03DEEP VOICE: Subtracted!
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Stop it with the doom stuff!
0:05:05 > 0:05:09We'll find out what's in that Year Sphere at the end of the show.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12Now, winning the knights quiz means that Natalie
0:05:12 > 0:05:14is automatically through to play the knights game,
0:05:14 > 0:05:17but will she be alone or will everyone get to play?
0:05:17 > 0:05:19Let's find out, shall we?
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Ooh, it's a single player game and I hope you're feeling brave,
0:05:25 > 0:05:28because it's a Stupid Death Game.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31THUNDER CLAP
0:05:31 > 0:05:34So off down the time sewer with you, Natalie. Good luck.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43It's time to play...
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Over to you-know-who to explain the game.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Warning!
0:05:48 > 0:05:53This story contains poo, death and, well, poo death. It's very good.
0:05:53 > 0:05:58So, one night in 1291, some crusaders raided a Saracen camp,
0:05:58 > 0:06:01but one of them tripped on a tent rope, fell into a toilet hole,
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- and drowned in poo! - HE LAUGHS
0:06:04 > 0:06:07As stupid deaths go, that's my number two!
0:06:07 > 0:06:10Your challenge is to get from one side of the Saracen camp
0:06:10 > 0:06:13to the other and rescue your friend from the poo pit
0:06:13 > 0:06:15without waking the sleeping Saracen.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Touch any tent rope and the bells will ring.
0:06:18 > 0:06:24Do that three times, it's game over. Your time starts now.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28So, here goes Natalie playing Knight Fall.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Look at that. What a low trajectory she's gone for there, Rattus.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Excellent, completely tingle-free in the first go.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Yeah, lovely. Lovely low technique, we've not seen this before.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Will it work for her, though?
0:06:39 > 0:06:40BELL RINGS
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Oh, no, it won't, she's bashed a bell with her bottom!
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Yeah, the Saracen's stirring a little bit there.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48She's got to be careful. She's got two more of those bell rings
0:06:48 > 0:06:51up her sleeve, and then it's serious trouble, I'm afraid.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54And, oh, dear me, that bell is directly above her.
0:06:54 > 0:06:55Can she possibly squeeze...?
0:06:55 > 0:06:59- BELL RINGS - Oh, the Saracen is stirring again!
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Perhaps she should've climbed over.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Tick tock! Your time is running out!
0:07:04 > 0:07:06HE LAUGHS
0:07:06 > 0:07:09You're not helping, Death, but she's done it, she's out!
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Now it's time to rescue the knight. She's there, she's got to him.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- Now all she's got to do is pull him out of there.- Pull!
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Pull him out!- Pull! Heave!
0:07:18 > 0:07:19Get him out of the poo!
0:07:19 > 0:07:23He's got to get out of that poo quickly now.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25He's coming! He's coming! That's it!
0:07:25 > 0:07:28The crusader is out. Good news for Natalie,
0:07:28 > 0:07:32and good news for the Saracen whose toilet is now completely unblocked.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37Congratulations, very well played. Help yourself, of course.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Another Year Sphere.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43You were fantastic at that. Perfect.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44So, round two,
0:07:44 > 0:07:48and to find out what's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52It's the Rotten Romans.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56Four questions again, and here are your all-important Roman topics -
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Dray, it's your turn to pick first this time.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Can I have the army, please?
0:08:05 > 0:08:11In 52BC, the Roman army faced the Gauls of France,
0:08:11 > 0:08:14but they only won because the Gauls wouldn't fight in the rain.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Was this because the Gauls,
0:08:16 > 0:08:19A, were worried about their swords rusting?
0:08:19 > 0:08:22B, thought it was a bad omen from the gods?
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Or C, didn't want the rain to make their blue war paint run?
0:08:26 > 0:08:30The Gauls were A, worried about their swords rusting,
0:08:30 > 0:08:32B, thought it was a bad omen from the gods,
0:08:32 > 0:08:35or C, didn't want the rain to make their blue warpaint run.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39Let's see your answers now, please. Everyone's agreed that it's B.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40Let's find out the answer.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42The answer is B.
0:08:42 > 0:08:46The Gauls thought it was a bad omen from the gods.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49I love heavy rain. Makes the sewers like a log flume.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51HE CHUCKLES
0:08:51 > 0:08:52Don't ask about the logs.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Well done, everybody, points all round.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56An eyeball, a brain and a skull.
0:08:56 > 0:08:57Natalie, it's your turn to pick next.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59Can I have cures, please?
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Here comes your question.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10A, performing amputations.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12B, killing flies.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Or C, blood-letting?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17What do you think? Is it A, B or C?
0:09:19 > 0:09:23Well, Mimi and Natalie agreeing on C. Dray thinks it's A.
0:09:23 > 0:09:24Let's find out the answer.
0:09:24 > 0:09:25The answer is -
0:09:28 > 0:09:31OK, Natalie, Mimi, another point apiece there,
0:09:31 > 0:09:33and that means it's Mimi's turn to choose.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35Manners, please.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38And that is a question from Rattus Rattus.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42According to one famous Roman writer, Emperor Claudius declared
0:09:42 > 0:09:46all men should be allowed to do what at the dinner table?
0:09:46 > 0:09:50Was it -
0:09:52 > 0:09:54So, what do you think?
0:09:54 > 0:09:57Was it A, yawn, B, burp, or C, fart?
0:09:57 > 0:10:01Everybody's gone for B. What's the answer, Rattus?
0:10:01 > 0:10:02The answer is -
0:10:02 > 0:10:03Yes, Claudius
0:10:03 > 0:10:06declared all men should be able to fart
0:10:06 > 0:10:09at the dinner table after hearing about someone who fell ill
0:10:09 > 0:10:12trying to keep one in. Not something I would ever do.
0:10:12 > 0:10:13HE FARTS
0:10:13 > 0:10:16Such a pleasure working with you, Rattus(!)
0:10:16 > 0:10:19One question left in this round. All still to play for.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23The final topic is earthquakes. Let's hear that question.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27What did we Romans believe caused earthquakes?
0:10:27 > 0:10:31A, the giant who holds up the world doing a burp.
0:10:31 > 0:10:32HE BURPS
0:10:32 > 0:10:37B, giants in the mountains awaking from their sleep.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41Or C, the god of elephants tripping over a sacred tree?
0:10:41 > 0:10:44So, what do you think? Is it A, B or C?
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Let's see your answers.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Ah, Mimi's on her own this time. She thinks it's A.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51What's the answer, please?
0:10:51 > 0:10:53The answer is B.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56We thought earthquakes were caused by giants
0:10:56 > 0:10:58awaking from their slumber in the mountains.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Stands to reason, doesn't it? Yeah.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Well played, Dray and Natalie. That's a point apiece.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07At the end of the round, it's Natalie, again.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09You've won yourself another Year Sphere.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12Please step forward and pick one.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17And try to avoid the Stone Age ones.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19Good advice for both contestants on the show
0:11:19 > 0:11:22and the inventor of the glass time machine.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25That is a very complicated joke for you, Rattus.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Yeah, actually I feel a bit faint.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31- Have a little lie down, fella. - LAUGHTER
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Feel free to stay asleep for the whole show.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35So, well played, Natalie.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38As winner of the quiz, you are through to play the Roman game.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42But will you be going it alone or will the others get to play too?
0:11:42 > 0:11:44There's only one way to find out.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50It's an all-play Gory Game.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54So off you go down the time sewer. Lead them off, Natalie.
0:11:55 > 0:11:56Good luck, Mimi.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01The Romans used some pretty ruthless tactics. It's time to play...
0:12:03 > 0:12:05If your fortress was under siege by Romans,
0:12:05 > 0:12:07you'd find all sorts of things
0:12:07 > 0:12:09being catapulted at you - rocks, beehives,
0:12:09 > 0:12:12even the severed heads of captured colleagues.
0:12:12 > 0:12:16Luckily, in this game you're on the Roman side and your challenge
0:12:16 > 0:12:19is to fire as many missiles into your fortress target as possible.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21- Ready, steady. - KLAXON BLARES
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Here we go with Savage Siege.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27Oh, Natalie grabs a beehive. Mimi and Dray have got rocks.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Let's see how they get on with firing those. Ooh!
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- That was close! - Close! That was close for Mimi.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36It sort of bounced one side, then the other,
0:12:36 > 0:12:38and then decided, "I'm not going into that basket."
0:12:38 > 0:12:42Whoa! Double rocks! That's a point each for Mimi and Dray.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46There's another point there for Dray.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Two rocks in for Dray.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53So he's found his range with the rocks. Now here goes Natalie.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Oh, it's a lovely effort but it just strikes the pillar.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Oh! A double score! Double score with the head!
0:12:59 > 0:13:00What a double that was, Rattus!
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Two decapitated heads simultaneously.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Will they do that again, I wonder? Yes, Dray.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Oh, no, Mimi, not quite.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Gory Games, the only game show where you'll see severed heads
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- fired at a target. - More's the pity.
0:13:15 > 0:13:1630 seconds remaining.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Another synchronised slam dunk from Mimi and Dray!
0:13:19 > 0:13:20That's terrific sieging!
0:13:20 > 0:13:24It's a battle royal between these two, isn't it, Rattus?
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Natalie's giving it everything but she's still yet to register.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30No such trouble for Dray, he's miles ahead!
0:13:30 > 0:13:32Miles ahe... Doesn't matter. Forget it.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34Oh, yes, look at this. Natalie's got one.
0:13:34 > 0:13:35She'll be pleased with that.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38But I don't think she can catch Dray,
0:13:38 > 0:13:40who's built a comfortable lead.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43That's a valiant effort but there's just seconds left.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Can Mimi catch Dray?
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Oh!
0:13:48 > 0:13:49Time's up.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52No, she can't. Dray bags a Year Sphere.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Welcome back, everybody.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Very well played indeed.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00So, Dray, with seven, you won the challenge.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02CHEERING
0:14:02 > 0:14:03Help yourself to a Year Sphere.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07TRIUMPHANT CHORUS
0:14:07 > 0:14:08Good choice.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13There we go. Right, on to round three.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16To find out what's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20It's the Measly Middle Ages.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Four questions then on the Middle Ages
0:14:22 > 0:14:24and your all-important topics are -
0:14:29 > 0:14:32Natalie, it is your turn to lead us off.
0:14:32 > 0:14:33Joan of Arc, please.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38True or false? Joan of Arc led the French army
0:14:38 > 0:14:42in battle against the English when she was only 17 years old.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45So, what do you think? True or false?
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Show me your answers now, please.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Everyone's gone for true. What's the right answer?
0:14:49 > 0:14:51It's true.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55Aged just 17, she led an army that ended the famous Siege of Orleans
0:14:55 > 0:14:59and turned the tide of the Hundred Years War in favour of the French.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02In a word - boo!
0:15:02 > 0:15:06Well done, everybody, that is a point each to start the round.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Mimi, it's your turn to pick a topic.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Kings, please.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13True or false? Richard I,
0:15:13 > 0:15:18otherwise known as Richard the Lionheart, offered to sell London.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Could that possibly be true?
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Show me your answers, please.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Mimi and Dray think it's true. Natalie thinks it's false.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Let's find out what the answer is.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28It's true!
0:15:28 > 0:15:31He spent most of his time in France and didn't like England much.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34I mean, what's not to like? Apart from the weather, the food,
0:15:34 > 0:15:38and the stinky peasants. HE SOBS
0:15:38 > 0:15:41I need a bath!
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Excellent work from Mimi and Dray, a point apiece,
0:15:44 > 0:15:46and, Dray, it's your turn to pick.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48Sieges, please.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Oh, no, it's a prop question,
0:15:50 > 0:15:53which means I have to go over to retrieve a prop.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55I've been thinking about this, Rattus.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59I have a one in three chance of choosing the right cupboard,
0:15:59 > 0:16:02so the odds of me getting it wrong this often in a row are one to...
0:16:02 > 0:16:05- Lots.- Yeah, one to lots.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07So I'm just going to go for it, I think.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08Oh!
0:16:08 > 0:16:12Dave, I have long been of the opinion that maths is not a friend.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Statistically, I've got to be right this time, haven't I?
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- Oh!- Dave, never trust maths.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21It's got to be in this one. Yes, it is. Good.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24I've found the prop and... Oh, fantastic(!)
0:16:24 > 0:16:26It's just a load of rat droppings.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30Crikey, I could've stayed here and asked you for these, Rattus.
0:16:30 > 0:16:35Anyway, true or false? During the Siege of Orleans in 1429,
0:16:35 > 0:16:39the starving French got so hungry that they ate rat droppings.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41What do you think?
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Is that true or is that false?
0:16:44 > 0:16:48Everybody's gone for true and I can tell you it is true.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Congratulations. you've all got a point.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53All still to play for. One question left in this round.
0:16:53 > 0:16:57The topic is fortune tellers and bad luck, Rattus,
0:16:57 > 0:17:00that is a question from Death.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03THUNDER CLAP
0:17:03 > 0:17:05True or false?
0:17:05 > 0:17:09William the Conqueror's personal fortune teller drowned at sea.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13William the Conqueror's personal fortune teller drowned at sea.
0:17:13 > 0:17:14Is that true or false?
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Show me now.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17Everyone's gone for true.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19Death, what's the answer?
0:17:19 > 0:17:22It's true. The fortune teller drowned.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24What's so stupid about that death?
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Well, on hearing the news William said, "He should've seen it coming."
0:17:28 > 0:17:30LAUGHTER
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Good one, William, but I do the jokes, OK?
0:17:33 > 0:17:34Well, the bad ones, anyway.
0:17:34 > 0:17:35I heard that!
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Sorry, your Deathiness.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42Ooh! Well played, everybody. Points all round there. Lovely stuff.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45And that means that Natalie, just for the moment,
0:17:45 > 0:17:49you are history, but Mimi, Dray, it's tie-breaker time.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51SIREN WAILS
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Beginning with the letter "W"
0:17:53 > 0:17:56what was the first name of the Scottish rebel who fought Edward...
0:17:56 > 0:17:58- Dray.- William.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Beginning with "W" what was the first name
0:18:00 > 0:18:03of the Scottish rebel who fought Edward I of England
0:18:03 > 0:18:05and whose surname was Wallace? It is William, Dray,
0:18:05 > 0:18:08you're absolutely right. Help yourself to a Year Sphere.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11TRIUMPHANT CHORUS
0:18:13 > 0:18:17OK, Dray, you won the Middle Ages quiz, so you're through to play
0:18:17 > 0:18:20the Middle Ages game, but will you be going it alone?
0:18:20 > 0:18:22Let's find out, shall we?
0:18:25 > 0:18:31It's an all-play Gory Game. Off down the time sewer with the lot of you.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36- In you go.- Woo!- Away you go, Mimi.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39William the Conqueror's funeral was like no other.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42His servants stole his treasure and the church burned down.
0:18:42 > 0:18:43It's time to play...
0:18:45 > 0:18:48You are William's servants and your challenge
0:18:48 > 0:18:50is to take his treasure and put it in your chest.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54All the treasure is colour-coded and you must only take your own loot.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57You'd better be quick because the church is going to burn down.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00Whoever collects the most pieces wins the Year Sphere,
0:19:00 > 0:19:01and your time starts now.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03KLAXON BLARES
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Of course, they have to steal the treasure that is colour-coded
0:19:07 > 0:19:10from Billy the Conqueror's tomb.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Billy the Conqueror?
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Historical figures and me go way back.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17Mimi started well with a candlestick.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21Dray's already got two! Extraordinary thieving, Rattus.
0:19:21 > 0:19:22Extraordinary!
0:19:22 > 0:19:24And Natalie's off the mark.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Dray edging ahead with his third piece.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Mimi's hot on his heels and he knows it.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Look at him working away at that plate.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37We should mention at this point that during his funeral
0:19:37 > 0:19:40William the Conqueror's belly exploded.
0:19:40 > 0:19:41RATTUS CACKLES
0:19:41 > 0:19:43I've got a horrible feeling
0:19:43 > 0:19:45that's going to happen here at some point.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47So look out for that one, Rattus.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50- I do hope so.- That's why they're wearing their safety goggles.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Thieves generally don't wear goggles,
0:19:53 > 0:19:55though some of them wear eye masks.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57That's because they don't want to be seen.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Absolutely. This is for totally different reasons.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01- Oh!- And we saw it there. - There goes Billy.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05A shower of yellowy-green slime
0:20:05 > 0:20:09tells us that Billy the Conq's guts have exploded.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11Yes, I do shorten Conqueror to Conqs,
0:20:11 > 0:20:15as well as William to Billy. I knew him extremely well.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- Billy bile there everywhere, Dave. - Absolutely.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Oh, there's a lovely large goblet there for Mimi.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22And there's another one for Natalie.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26I doubt that treasure is worth as much now it's all covered in guts.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Maybe, but it's not stopped them thieving it
0:20:29 > 0:20:30and the scores are very close.
0:20:31 > 0:20:3330 seconds remaining.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36The last moments of the game now. It's all still to play for.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38It's a race to the finish.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Dray just about maintaining his lead.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44The thieving goes on. They're all doing remarkably well here.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47It's a terrific example of how to thieve at a funeral.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50It's getting tricky to see now with all that smoke.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52The fire is in the church.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55- Fire! - It's going to burn down, Rattus!
0:20:55 > 0:20:57They're going to have to finish off their thieving
0:20:57 > 0:20:59and escape as quickly as possible.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03A fifth piece for Mimi but this is a sixth piece for Natalie!
0:21:03 > 0:21:04Time's up.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08Oh, that's a Year Sphere each then for her and Dray.
0:21:08 > 0:21:09CHEERING
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Welcome back, everybody, welcome back.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15What tremendous thieving!
0:21:15 > 0:21:18So, Natalie, help yourself to a Year Sphere.
0:21:18 > 0:21:22Year Sphere for you. And, Dray, grab yourself one.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Excellent.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27So, Mimi, no Year Spheres as yet
0:21:27 > 0:21:30but it's perfectly possible to win this competition
0:21:30 > 0:21:32by not getting any Year Spheres at all.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33It's the final round.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37It's over to the Gory Grid one last time to find out what we've got.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41It's the Vile Victorians. Good day!
0:21:41 > 0:21:42- Good day.- Good day!
0:21:42 > 0:21:45There's no quirky quiz in our final round,
0:21:45 > 0:21:49so it's straight down the time sewer for our big all-play end game.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Off you go, everybody. Go on, Natalie.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55- Well done. In you go, Dray. - Whoopsy!
0:21:55 > 0:21:58When Queen Victoria was but a child,
0:21:58 > 0:22:02surgeons wanted to find out more about how the human body worked
0:22:02 > 0:22:05and for this they needed dead bodies. It's time to play...
0:22:07 > 0:22:10Your challenge is to steal three corpses from the graveyard,
0:22:10 > 0:22:13get them through the railings and onto the carts, find the key
0:22:13 > 0:22:17to the cemetery gates and plonk them onto the surgeon's table.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19- If you hear this noise... - WHISTLE BLOWS
0:22:19 > 0:22:21..a policeman is coming
0:22:21 > 0:22:23and you have to rush back to the cemetery and hide.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26A second whistle means he's gone and you can carry on.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29The first person to get all their bodies to the table
0:22:29 > 0:22:32and grab the money the surgeons left for them is the winner.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36So if you law-breakers are ready, three, two, one, thieve!
0:22:36 > 0:22:37KLAXON BLARES
0:22:37 > 0:22:42There goes the massive hooter and the grave robbing has begun.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Mimi is yanking her body through.
0:22:44 > 0:22:45Dray's through already.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49And they're off. This is a terrific flying start from these two.
0:22:49 > 0:22:50Natalie not far behind.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Now this, Rattus, this is the tricky bit.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56This is where they have to unlock the cemetery gates using a key
0:22:56 > 0:22:58attached to the body's trousers.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00This can be quite fiddly,
0:23:00 > 0:23:02especially with those cobwebs everywhere.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05- Oh! And Mimi's through. - She's through! She's through!
0:23:05 > 0:23:09Mimi's through and the first corpse is delivered. Lovely job.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12Oh, look, Rattus. That cobweb has gone on Mimi's head.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14She looks like a badger!
0:23:14 > 0:23:18But it's not put her off. She's already after corpse number two!
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Dave, just to check, are those real bodies?
0:23:21 > 0:23:23No, they're not, Rattus.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25Very realistic, aren't they, the smaller ones?
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Those are the contestants!
0:23:27 > 0:23:31- They're real. We've just been talking to them.- Of course.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35And Dray also has his first corpse and he's back through the gates,
0:23:35 > 0:23:37trying to get to his second one.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39And there he is, there's his second one.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43Yes, and Natalie's through, so they're all doing terrifically well.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46But Mimi is doing the best of all because she's already delivered two.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48Just one more required
0:23:48 > 0:23:52and Dray is wrestling with his cadaver there, isn't he, Rattus?
0:23:52 > 0:23:56- WHISTLE BLOWS - Look out! Here comes the policeman!
0:23:56 > 0:23:58They have correctly hidden behind those tombstones
0:23:58 > 0:24:02on hearing his approach. And here he is, Constable Savage.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04He's not very good at policing, to be honest.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08I have to say he is possibly the worst bungling bobby I've ever seen.
0:24:08 > 0:24:12He's ignoring the bodies that are lying strewn in his path.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Well, he's from the Victorian age.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18He's used to corpses littering the pavements. But I have to say
0:24:18 > 0:24:22he had to step over that one. It was particularly poor policing.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23WHISTLE BLOWS
0:24:23 > 0:24:25They're back! They're back, Dave!
0:24:25 > 0:24:28They certainly are and Mimi has just got this body to deliver now.
0:24:28 > 0:24:32This is remarkable stuff! She's got him straight on the wheelbarrow!
0:24:32 > 0:24:34But poor old Dray's having to wrestle with his.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Oh, that leg is at a horrible angle.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41Natalie also in the background, working away as best she can.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43That's a terrific reverse there from Mimi.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46She's problem-solving terrifically well.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49She's through! The last body's delivered, she just needs...
0:24:49 > 0:24:53She just has to get down to the other end and through the railings!
0:24:53 > 0:24:58She's going to be celebrating any second now. And she's done it!
0:24:58 > 0:25:01It's a win for Mimi!
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Very well played.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07Mimi, help yourself to a Year Sphere. Your first!
0:25:07 > 0:25:10She's gone for that one, well done.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13So now it's time to count up those Year Spheres.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17Remember that AD dates are added to your total,
0:25:17 > 0:25:20and BC dates are subtracted from it.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22It's the moment of truth.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26So, Mimi, let's have a look in your Year Sphere.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27What have you got for us?
0:25:27 > 0:25:32Excellent, it's a good one. 1603 AD, the death of Queen Elizabeth I.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36It's a good score. You could win with that.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Dray, let's see yours.
0:25:38 > 0:25:421483 AD, Richard III became King of England.
0:25:42 > 0:25:44Let's have a look at the second one.
0:25:44 > 0:25:491769 AD, even better. Napoleon Bonaparte was born.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Let's have a look at this third one.
0:25:51 > 0:25:571337 AD, beginning of the Hundred Years War with France.
0:25:57 > 0:26:04That is a very good total you've got there, Dray. 4,589 to beat.
0:26:04 > 0:26:05But you can do this, Natalie.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07You've got plenty of spheres to play with.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10Let's have a look in that first one. There it is.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12It's a small one but it's positive.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15122 AD, Hadrian's Wall began to be built.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Let's have a look at this one.
0:26:17 > 0:26:211852 AD, that's a good one.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24London's first flushing loo was opened to the public that year.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Let's have a look at the third.
