0:00:53 > 0:00:55Hello and welcome to Gory Games

0:00:55 > 0:00:57with me, Dave Lamb.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59And me, Rattus Rattus.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02Rattus, you've got a little bit of something stuck on your snout there.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04- Stuck pretty firmly is it?- Nnng.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06I bet you'd quite like me to take that off, wouldn't you?

0:01:06 > 0:01:09- Nnng-nng-nng.- Bad luck, fella.- Oi!

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Let's meet today's Horrible Historians.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13Hi, I'm Aaron and I'm from Leeds.

0:01:13 > 0:01:14Hello, Aaron.

0:01:14 > 0:01:17Hi, I'm Faye and I'm from Telford.

0:01:17 > 0:01:18Hello, Faye.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20Hi, I'm Daniel and I'm from Essex.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22Hello, Daniel.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Welcome, everyone. I've got a very good feeling about today's show.

0:01:27 > 0:01:28Oi.

0:01:28 > 0:01:32All right then, Rattus, I'm only joking. Come on, let's get that off.

0:01:32 > 0:01:33- Aargh!- There we go.

0:01:33 > 0:01:37Right, and you can play along at home too, using the Gory Games app.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41If you haven't got it yet, check out the CBBC website.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44You lot are playing to win Year Spheres.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46At the end of the show the person with the highest year score,

0:01:46 > 0:01:49will win a prize like no other.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51And not in a good way, I'm afraid,

0:01:51 > 0:01:55as the prize has been chosen by Rattus. So let's get cracking.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57And to find out what the first round is about,

0:01:57 > 0:01:59it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04It's the Nasty Knights.

0:02:04 > 0:02:08So, four questions on the Nasty Knights coming up now.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10The person who gets the most right,

0:02:10 > 0:02:12wins the first Year Sphere.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15And your four knight's topics are....

0:02:19 > 0:02:22So, Daniel, you get to pick first this round.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24Which of those takes your fancy?

0:02:24 > 0:02:25Food.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28- That is a prop question.- Yeah.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31- Oh, he's chuffed to bits. - Prop question, prop question.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34And, as always, the prop is in one of the cupboards.

0:02:34 > 0:02:39And today, Rattus, I have come prepared.

0:02:39 > 0:02:40What's that for?

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Well, let's just say experience has taught me

0:02:43 > 0:02:47that some anti-booby trap measures might well be in order.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Unlucky, Rattus.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Wow.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55Jeff, you can get rid of that thanks very much.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57Oh.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59Sorry, delayed action.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01Must need oiling.

0:03:01 > 0:03:04Here's the prop. Well, that was well worth the effort wasn't it(?)

0:03:04 > 0:03:07Grains of wheat, covered in poo.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09True or false?

0:03:09 > 0:03:11In the Middle Ages when knights were off on crusades

0:03:11 > 0:03:13and ran out of food, they sometimes got

0:03:13 > 0:03:18so desperate that they ate grains of wheat found in human poo.

0:03:18 > 0:03:22So what do you think, true or false?

0:03:22 > 0:03:25Daniel and Aaron agreeing on true. Faye has gone with false.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27The answer is...

0:03:27 > 0:03:28false.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Well, of course it is, that would be absolutely disgusting.

0:03:31 > 0:03:36But they did occasionally eat grains of wheat found in animal poo.

0:03:36 > 0:03:37And why not?

0:03:37 > 0:03:40Well, congratulations, Faye. Well done.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43It's your turn to pick a category. What would you like?

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Erm, cheating.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51True or false? Some knights used to cheat at tournaments.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53One method was to screw themselves to their saddle

0:03:53 > 0:03:56so they couldn't be knocked off their horse.

0:03:56 > 0:04:00What do you think? Is that true or is that false?

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Everybody's gone for true.

0:04:02 > 0:04:03Are they all right or all wrong?

0:04:03 > 0:04:06It's true.

0:04:06 > 0:04:10I would never do that. Well, not since I was caught doing it anyway.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14An eyeball, a brain and a skull.

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Aaron, it's your turn to pick a topic.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Battle, please.

0:04:18 > 0:04:19True or false?

0:04:19 > 0:04:24If you captured a knight in battle, it was best to kill him immediately.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Gosh, is that true or is that false?

0:04:28 > 0:04:30Aaron and Faye think it's false.

0:04:30 > 0:04:31Daniel thinks it's true.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33What's the answer?

0:04:33 > 0:04:34It's false.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37We knights were far too valuable alive as you could sell us

0:04:37 > 0:04:39back to our families for a small fortune.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Though after I forgot our anniversary I'm not sure

0:04:42 > 0:04:45if my wife would actually pay up.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47So, Aaron and Faye, that's a point apiece.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50And the final question is on Sieges.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Is this true or false?

0:04:59 > 0:05:01When knights were laying siege to a castle,

0:05:01 > 0:05:06they would sometimes catapult in dead horses. Is that true or false?

0:05:06 > 0:05:08Let's see your answers.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12Daniel and Faye going with true. Aaron has gone with false.

0:05:12 > 0:05:13What's the answer please?

0:05:13 > 0:05:15It's true.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19I've heard of it raining cats and dogs, but horses?

0:05:19 > 0:05:20Well, absolutely.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23And not only could it kill the unlucky person it landed on,

0:05:23 > 0:05:28the rotting corpse of a horse could also spread a lot of disease, yeah.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31Daniel and Faye, that's another point each.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34Faye, you've got a full house, four out of four,

0:05:34 > 0:05:36which means it's time for you to choose your Year Sphere

0:05:36 > 0:05:41and it's time for me to say, all hail the potty pyramid.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46CHORAL VOICES: # Ah-ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah! #

0:05:47 > 0:05:48Faye, help yourself.

0:05:48 > 0:05:52- Hey, Dave.- What?- I've got a potty mouth.- I know you have.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Choose carefully though, Faye, because while AD dates will be added

0:05:55 > 0:05:59to your total, BC dates will be subtracted from it.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02We'll find out what's in there at the end of the show.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05So winning the Knights' Quiz means that Faye is automatically

0:06:05 > 0:06:07through to play the Knights' Game.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10But will she be alone or will everyone get to play?

0:06:10 > 0:06:11Let's find out shall we?

0:06:15 > 0:06:17It's a single player game.

0:06:17 > 0:06:18It's time to play...

0:06:20 > 0:06:23Which is a Stupid Death game.

0:06:23 > 0:06:24THUNDER CRASHES

0:06:26 > 0:06:27So get down that sewer, Faye.

0:06:29 > 0:06:31Oh, phew, it stinks down here.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35Over to you, Death.

0:06:35 > 0:06:39Warning, this story contains poo, death and,

0:06:39 > 0:06:41well, poo death. It's very good.

0:06:41 > 0:06:47So, one night in 1291, some crusaders raided a Saracen camp,

0:06:47 > 0:06:50but one of them tripped on a tent rope, fell into a toilet hole

0:06:50 > 0:06:52and drowned in poo.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56As stupid deaths go, that's my number two.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59Number two. Brilliant.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02Anyway, your challenge is to get from one side of the Saracen

0:07:02 > 0:07:05camp to the other and rescue your friend from the poo pit

0:07:05 > 0:07:08without waking the sleeping Saracen.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11Touch any tent rope and the bells will ring.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Do that three times - it's game over.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18Your time starts...now.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19FOGHORN BLARES

0:07:19 > 0:07:23So here goes Faye, playing Knight Fall.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27Well, now, Rattus, she appeared to touch several ropes there

0:07:27 > 0:07:29but no bells rang. Lucky.

0:07:29 > 0:07:32She's through that first set of ropes very quickly indeed, Rattus.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34She certainly is.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Wow, look at that. The Saracen not stirring as yet.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40She's picking a very neat course through...

0:07:40 > 0:07:41BELLS RING

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Oh, that's a bell going off. He's certainly stirring.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47She doesn't need to do that too many more times.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Oh, look at the drama there, Rattus.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52Looking over to see if the Saracen is waking up.

0:07:52 > 0:07:53BELLS RING

0:07:53 > 0:07:55Oh, and that's a second bell ring but it doesn't matter now

0:07:55 > 0:07:57because she's through.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00Now she's got to pull the knight out of the cesspit of poo.

0:08:00 > 0:08:02And she's really yanking him.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04His leg is bending into an appalling shape there.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07I think he must have broken that as he fell into the cesspit.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09Now she's got him. She's got him by the midriff

0:08:09 > 0:08:12and she's just yanking him out of the poo.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16She's doing this in record-breaking time.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18He's out and she's lifting him

0:08:18 > 0:08:23above her head like some sort of weightlifting challenge.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Let's see that again in slow motion.

0:08:26 > 0:08:31She reaches down, pulls up,

0:08:31 > 0:08:34and then that's the clean and jerk,

0:08:34 > 0:08:36right above her head.

0:08:36 > 0:08:37That's a clean lift.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Congratulations, Faye. Welcome back.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Superb. Help yourself to a Year Sphere.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Good celebration of course.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Careful it's not a stone age stinker.

0:08:49 > 0:08:53Don't let him influence you. You choose which ever one you want.

0:08:53 > 0:08:57So Round Two and to find out what's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00It's the Vicious Vikings.

0:09:00 > 0:09:01Yes.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Yes, Faye's very happy with Vikings.

0:09:03 > 0:09:07Four questions again and here are your all-important Viking topics.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15And, Faye, it's your turn to pick first.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Erm, can I have Myths please?

0:09:17 > 0:09:20That is a question from Rattus Rattus.

0:09:20 > 0:09:26According to Viking legend, why did the god Odin only have one eye?

0:09:26 > 0:09:30Was it A - because he lost the other in a fight with a raven,

0:09:30 > 0:09:33B - he swapped it for a drink from the well of wisdom or

0:09:33 > 0:09:35C - he gave it to a blind giant?

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Let's see your answers now please.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Daniel and Aaron agreeing on A.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48Faye has gone for B.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Rattus, what is the answer?

0:09:50 > 0:09:51Oh, Faye,

0:09:51 > 0:09:53you're right, it's B.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57He swapped it for a drink from the well of wisdom,

0:09:57 > 0:10:01after which he became wise and knew everything.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Like it's not worth swapping your eye

0:10:03 > 0:10:06for drink from the well of wisdom.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09Well done, Faye. Aaron, your turn to choose a topic.

0:10:09 > 0:10:10Rulers, please.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15Which one of these was not a real Viking Ruler?

0:10:15 > 0:10:17Was it A - Olaf the Greenfingered,

0:10:17 > 0:10:19B - Harald Bluetooth

0:10:19 > 0:10:22or C - Ivar the Boneless?

0:10:26 > 0:10:28Show me now please.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31Everybody's gone for B.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33Are they all right or are they all wrong?

0:10:33 > 0:10:38The answer is A - Olaf the Greenfingered.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Although I do know an Olaf who picks his nose a lot.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43I know a rat that does that too.

0:10:43 > 0:10:44RATTUS LAUGHS

0:10:44 > 0:10:46No points there whatsoever.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49So it's Daniel's turn to choose a topic. What'll you have?

0:10:49 > 0:10:52Word-play, please.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Let's see if you know this one.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Your answers now, please.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Faye and Aaron have gone for B.

0:11:14 > 0:11:16Daniel has gone for C.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18Let's find out what the answer is.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Let me put you out of your misery.

0:11:20 > 0:11:21The answer is...

0:11:21 > 0:11:25A - a horse of the sea is a ship.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28I've got a Viking word-play for you, Dave.

0:11:28 > 0:11:33What's a donkey of the TV studio, rhymes with rave?

0:11:33 > 0:11:37- HE SIGHS - Let's move on, shall we?

0:11:37 > 0:11:40No points awarded there. The final category is Laws.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42And this is the question.

0:11:42 > 0:11:45If you lost a fight and did not want to be killed,

0:11:45 > 0:11:46what did you have to do?

0:11:46 > 0:11:48A - swim in the freezing sea,

0:11:48 > 0:11:51B - hang on to the greased tail of a cow

0:11:51 > 0:11:54or C - run through the town shouting, "I'm an idiot!"

0:11:54 > 0:11:59Oh, that's a tricky one. What do you think - is it A, B or C?

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Everyone thinks that's B.

0:12:02 > 0:12:03What's the answer?

0:12:03 > 0:12:07The answer is B, you had to hang on to the greased tail of a cow

0:12:07 > 0:12:09whilst it charged round a Viking hall.

0:12:09 > 0:12:13Succeed and you could keep the cow and your life.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16And if you're watching, Simon Cowell,

0:12:16 > 0:12:19that's the kind of talent show I'd like to see.

0:12:19 > 0:12:23Don't give him ideas, Rattus. Excellent, points all round.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27And looking at that, we can see there's only one winner. It's Faye.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29Help yourself to another Year Sphere.

0:12:29 > 0:12:33Do you know Year Spheres are actually rolled by ancient Egyptian beetles

0:12:33 > 0:12:37out of camels' dung then sprayed gold?

0:12:37 > 0:12:39- They're not, are they?- No.- No.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42So, Faye, as the winner of the Viking Quiz,

0:12:42 > 0:12:44you're through to play the Viking Game.

0:12:44 > 0:12:48But will you be alone or will the others get to play too?

0:12:48 > 0:12:49Let's find out, shall we?

0:12:52 > 0:12:55It's an All Play Silly Game.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58Get down that Time Sewer.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00Well done, Faye.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04After a hard week's looting and pillaging,

0:13:04 > 0:13:08Vikings love nothing more than to relax on a Saturday and have a wash.

0:13:08 > 0:13:12They even had tiny spoons to clean the wax from their ears,

0:13:12 > 0:13:13Which is why we're playing...

0:13:16 > 0:13:19Your challenge is to clean out a Viking ear,

0:13:19 > 0:13:22carry the wobbly wax over the unstable bridge on your Viking

0:13:22 > 0:13:25ear spoon and flick it in your bowl.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28The person who gets the most earwax from ear to bowl

0:13:28 > 0:13:30within the time limit wins the Year Sphere.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33So, spoons at the ready as your time starts...now.

0:13:33 > 0:13:34FOGHORN BLARES

0:13:34 > 0:13:37And they're off. All three of them

0:13:37 > 0:13:40trying to remove earwax with their decorative Viking ear spoons.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45Oh, look at the wax pouring out of Faye's ear there.

0:13:45 > 0:13:47Oh, and she's dropped a piece already.

0:13:47 > 0:13:48Here's Aaron.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50He's across very nicely there.

0:13:50 > 0:13:51Nimble.

0:13:51 > 0:13:53And, oh, Daniel, lovely, lovely.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Took the see-saw bridge well there, so did Faye.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59Faye scores. So does Daniel. It's one apiece.

0:13:59 > 0:14:03There is still everything to play for here, Rattus.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06You know what? All this earwax is making me feel hungry.

0:14:06 > 0:14:07HE GAGS

0:14:08 > 0:14:12Another score there for Aaron. Nice. And here comes Daniel.

0:14:12 > 0:14:13Oh, he's missed it.

0:14:13 > 0:14:15And I suppose we ought to point out to people at home

0:14:15 > 0:14:19that you should never put a spoon into your ear.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22Or, for that matter, into a Viking's ear.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24No, certainly not.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Faye scores a second.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30But this could be a third for Aaron. It is.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Wow, do you know? Aaron really looks like he's done this before.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36Yes, and... Well, where on earth would he have done this before?

0:14:36 > 0:14:39I can't imagine. Good question.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41So it's two for Daniel

0:14:41 > 0:14:42and Faye's got a third.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Oh, and look at Aaron keeping half an eye on the other

0:14:45 > 0:14:47competitors scores there as he bags a fourth.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50And he hurries quickly back for more.

0:14:50 > 0:14:51Here comes Faye.

0:14:51 > 0:14:5330 seconds remaining.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55Neatly over that bridge.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57Oh, but she's missed the pot.

0:14:57 > 0:14:58Disaster.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Daniel, a study of concentration.

0:15:00 > 0:15:01Lovely stuff.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04Aaron, another beautiful lump of wax.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07He's got a two-wax-ball lead here.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09That may well prove to be un-passable.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12Another one there from Faye.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15But Aaron's going to match that.

0:15:15 > 0:15:19And Daniel gets himself up to a very respectable tied second.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21But this is Aaron's for me.

0:15:21 > 0:15:22- SIREN - Time's up.

0:15:22 > 0:15:26It's all over and Aaron has bagged himself a Year Sphere.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30Welcome back, everybody. Well done.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32That was incredibly close.

0:15:32 > 0:15:38In joint second place, with four pieces of earwax,

0:15:38 > 0:15:39Faye and Daniel.

0:15:39 > 0:15:43The winner, with six pieces, Aaron. Help yourself to a Year Sphere.

0:15:48 > 0:15:52We'll find out if that's AD or BC at the end of the show.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54Right, on to Round Three.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57To find out what's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02It's the Measly Middle Ages.

0:16:02 > 0:16:06So four questions then on the Measly Middle Ages coming up.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Your four topics are...

0:16:12 > 0:16:15And, Aaron, it is your turn to lead us off.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Erm, Punishments, please.

0:16:18 > 0:16:22True or false? William the Conqueror banned executions.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25What do you think - is that true or is that false?

0:16:25 > 0:16:26Show me now, please.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Faye and Daniel think it's true.

0:16:29 > 0:16:30Aaron thinks it's false.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Let's find out what the answer is.

0:16:32 > 0:16:37It's true. For a short time, William the Conqueror banned executions.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39Wow, what a nice man.

0:16:39 > 0:16:42Instead, he had people's eyes gouged out.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Wow, what a horrible man.

0:16:44 > 0:16:47He was a one.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Daniel and Faye, that's a point each.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52And, Daniel, it's your turn to pick a topic.

0:16:52 > 0:16:53Children, please.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55True or false?

0:16:55 > 0:16:58In Scotland and England in the Middle Ages, when a child

0:16:58 > 0:17:02was christened, their family used to rub spit on their face.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Eurgh.

0:17:04 > 0:17:06Could that possibly be true?

0:17:06 > 0:17:08Let's see your answers now, please.

0:17:08 > 0:17:09Everybody's gone for false.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12Are they all right or are they all wrong? Let's find out.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14It's true.

0:17:14 > 0:17:19Saliva was rubbed into the ears and the nose to ward off evil.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Sounds a bit silly to me.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25Well, if they did that to a loved one,

0:17:25 > 0:17:27imagine what they did to people they didn't like.

0:17:27 > 0:17:28RATTUS LAUGHS

0:17:28 > 0:17:32So, no points there and, Faye, it's your turn to pick.

0:17:32 > 0:17:33Cures, please.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35And that is a question from Rattus Rattus.

0:17:35 > 0:17:39And it's an unpleasant question. True or false?

0:17:39 > 0:17:43One Middle Ages cure for the black death involved

0:17:43 > 0:17:46killing all the town's rats.

0:17:49 > 0:17:50Is that true or false?

0:17:50 > 0:17:51Show me now, please.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53Everybody has gone for false.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Rattus, what's the answer?

0:17:55 > 0:17:56It is false, yeah.

0:17:56 > 0:18:00But one cure did involve killing all the town's cats,

0:18:00 > 0:18:03which sounds like a pretty good idea to me.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06- Rattus!- Just saying, just saying.

0:18:06 > 0:18:10In fact it was us rats, or at least our fleas who were spreading

0:18:10 > 0:18:13the disease, but nobody had figured that out back then.

0:18:13 > 0:18:17Yes, but we've all worked it out now. Everyone gets a point.

0:18:17 > 0:18:21There's one question left in this round. You're all still in it.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25That question is on Superstitions, and this is what it is.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28Is this true or false?

0:18:37 > 0:18:38So, in the Middle Ages

0:18:38 > 0:18:41some people believed there was a species of humans who grew

0:18:41 > 0:18:45old super quickly and died when they were just seven years old. Is that true or false?

0:18:45 > 0:18:47Let's have a look.

0:18:47 > 0:18:48Well, a disagreement.

0:18:48 > 0:18:51Daniel and Faye thought it was true

0:18:51 > 0:18:53but Aaron thinks it's false.

0:18:53 > 0:18:54What's the answer?

0:18:54 > 0:18:55It's...

0:18:55 > 0:18:56true.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00That's another point for Daniel and another point for Faye.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03So, Aaron, just for now you are history.

0:19:03 > 0:19:06Faye and Daniel, we're in a tie break situation.

0:19:07 > 0:19:08Beginning with the letter D,

0:19:08 > 0:19:11name the room in a castle in which prisoners were held.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13- Dungeon!- Daniel.- Dungeon.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16Dungeon is absolutely right. Well done, Daniel.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18Help yourself to a Year Sphere.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22Excellent. Everybody has a Year Sphere.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25And well done, Daniel, you've won the Middle Ages quiz,

0:19:25 > 0:19:27so that means you're through to play the Middle Ages Game.

0:19:27 > 0:19:31But will you be on your own or will the others get to come along too?

0:19:31 > 0:19:33Let's find out.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38It's a Single Player Silly Game.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41So, Daniel, off down the Time Sewer with you on your own.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51Have you ever wondered what would happen

0:19:51 > 0:19:54if you crossed a load of pigs with a piano?

0:19:54 > 0:19:58No? Me neither, but we're about to find out anyway as we play...

0:20:00 > 0:20:04Back in the 1400s, France's King Louis XI received a not very

0:20:04 > 0:20:08musical instrument consisting of several pigs and a keyboard.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10Each key triggered a spike which would prick a pig.

0:20:10 > 0:20:11SQUEAL!

0:20:11 > 0:20:14And each pig squealed a different note.

0:20:14 > 0:20:18Your challenge is to listen to and repeat a sequence of piggy squeals.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21The sequence will get one squeal longer each time.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24Correctly repeat nine squeals within the time limit

0:20:24 > 0:20:26and you'll win a Year Sphere.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Let's get squealing.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30FOGHORN BLARES

0:20:30 > 0:20:33So, here goes Daniel with the first sequence.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37SQUEALING

0:20:37 > 0:20:38Can he repeat it?

0:20:38 > 0:20:39SQUEAL!

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Look at that,

0:20:41 > 0:20:44he's back out of the way just in case the poo should come.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47I tell you what, I've never seen anyone look more anxiously

0:20:47 > 0:20:49at a pig's bottom.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52He's already in trouble with only four squeaks to cover.

0:20:52 > 0:20:53SQUEAL!

0:20:53 > 0:20:56Oh, he doesn't like this. He is very aware that

0:20:56 > 0:21:00if he gets just one note wrong those pigs will let him have it.

0:21:00 > 0:21:01PFFFRRRRT!

0:21:01 > 0:21:03Oh, no! Oh, dear me!

0:21:03 > 0:21:07And that jet of liquid poo tells us it's game over for Daniel.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09Let's see that again in slow mo.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12RATTUS LAUGHS

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Oh, you like that, don't you, Rattus?

0:21:15 > 0:21:17Pig poo everywhere.

0:21:17 > 0:21:22Welcome back, Daniel. Welcome back. How was that for you, Daniel?

0:21:22 > 0:21:24- Oh, it's very hard. - It was very hard.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26Really don't like that game.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28What is it that you don't like about it?

0:21:28 > 0:21:30- Mmm.- Is it the poo?

0:21:30 > 0:21:31Probably, yes, Rattus.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33Cos I love the poo.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35Well, maybe you should play it.

0:21:35 > 0:21:36They won't let me.

0:21:36 > 0:21:40It's the final round, and so it's over to the Gory Grid

0:21:40 > 0:21:43one last time to find out what we've got.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45It's the Terrible Tudors.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49It's the final round which means no Quirky Quiz, instead we go

0:21:49 > 0:21:53straight down the Time Sewer to play our big All Play Tudor Endgame.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56Down you go.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58- FAYE:- I love Rattus Rattus!

0:21:58 > 0:22:00THEY COUGH AND GAG

0:22:00 > 0:22:03It's time to play...

0:22:04 > 0:22:09As you may be aware, Henry VIII liked the odd pie or 20,

0:22:09 > 0:22:12and your job is to feed His Royal Pie-ness

0:22:12 > 0:22:14as many as possible.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16The person who gets the most pies in their Henry's

0:22:16 > 0:22:18mouth in the time limit, wins the Year Sphere.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21Get ready. Three, two, one.

0:22:21 > 0:22:22FOGHORN BLARES

0:22:22 > 0:22:26And they are off and it's a slight false start there for Faye.

0:22:26 > 0:22:27She dropped her pie.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30Well, she's at a disadvantage but they're all safely away.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Here she goes. Oh, she's... And again.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Rattus, she pinged back there.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37She certainly did, Dave. I'm assuming that the runway is, in fact,

0:22:37 > 0:22:39covered in gravy from the pies.

0:22:39 > 0:22:40Well, it might be.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42- BURP! - And Aaron scored. He's off the mark.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46Daniel though not putting enough welly behind that one for me.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48- BURP! - But Aaron has scored another.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52I'll tell you what, Rattus, if Henry VIII was that big,

0:22:52 > 0:22:55how big were the other seven eighths?

0:22:55 > 0:22:57It's a maths joke and I don't get it.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59Yeah, tough crowd, wrong audience.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02Ooh, and that's a close shave there for Aaron.

0:23:02 > 0:23:04Even closer from Daniel.

0:23:04 > 0:23:05Oh, now watch this.

0:23:05 > 0:23:09I don't think Faye's over-arm technique is properly working here.

0:23:09 > 0:23:10Oh, that was very, very close though.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13- BURP! - Oh, Aaron's got three.

0:23:13 > 0:23:15Faye tried to bounce one in there.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Not sure what the ruling is on that, Rattus.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19Luckily it's not relevant.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21But Daniel yet to score, I think.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23Oh, that one's fallen short, hasn't it?

0:23:23 > 0:23:26That must have been short crust pastry.

0:23:26 > 0:23:30LAUGHING: See what you did there. Short crust! Oh, you're funny.

0:23:30 > 0:23:33Great stuff. A brilliant comment by me.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37No joy for anyone that time though.

0:23:37 > 0:23:39I think they're beginning to tire here, aren't they?

0:23:39 > 0:23:41Feeding Henry is hard work.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43- BURP! - Daniel scores.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46Lovely shot, sir. Lovely shot.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Faye getting pinged back.

0:23:48 > 0:23:5030 seconds remaining.

0:23:50 > 0:23:5130 seconds.

0:23:51 > 0:23:55Oh, dear, some of the food's landing on the floor there.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57Oh, the old five-second rule applies, Dave.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00If nobody picks it up in five seconds, it's mine.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02That's not the five-second rule.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05Aaron is winning this by a country mile, isn't he?

0:24:05 > 0:24:07I mean, he's just firing. I like his throwing technique.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09I wonder where he's learned that, Rattus.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11- BURP! - And there's a fifth.

0:24:11 > 0:24:12With only seconds left to play

0:24:12 > 0:24:14there's no way he's going to be caught now.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17There he is, the pie champion elect.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19- SIREN - Time's up.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22It's all over, Faye throws down her pie. She's not happy.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25The Pie Man nods. He knows when he's seen a good game

0:24:25 > 0:24:27and that is what Aaron has had.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29Welcome back, everybody.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31Terrific pie flinging.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34I can tell you that we had a clear winner in the game.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37It wasn't Daniel. It wasn't Faye. It was Aaron.

0:24:37 > 0:24:41Congratulations. Help yourself to a Year Sphere. The last one today.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45There we go.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49Whoa, trembling hand places it back on the podium.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51How did you find it, Daniel?

0:24:51 > 0:24:53Very hard, it kept on pulling me back and I was like...

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Couldn't just do it.

0:24:55 > 0:24:56What about you, Faye?

0:24:56 > 0:24:58Oh, I loved it.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00THEY LAUGH

0:25:00 > 0:25:02Aaron, you were the king of that game.

0:25:02 > 0:25:03What was your technique based on?

0:25:03 > 0:25:05At home I like magic a lot

0:25:05 > 0:25:08and I practice flicking cards so...

0:25:08 > 0:25:11- So it was like flicking a giant card for you?- Yeah.

0:25:11 > 0:25:12Brilliant.

0:25:12 > 0:25:15Now it's time to count up those Year Spheres and, remember,

0:25:15 > 0:25:20AD dates are added and BC dates are subtracted.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22It's the moment of truth.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25Daniel, open up your sphere for me, please.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Oh, dear, Daniel.

0:25:27 > 0:25:30It's 1213 BC.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33The death of Pharaoh Ramses II.

0:25:33 > 0:25:36Bad luck but you never know.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38Faye, open up your first one for us.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42There we go. It's a good one.

0:25:42 > 0:25:451381 AD. The Peasants' Revolt was that year.

0:25:45 > 0:25:47Let's have a look at that second one.

0:25:47 > 0:25:49Please, be good.

0:25:49 > 0:25:531702 AD, very good. The death of King William III.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56The all-important third one. This could be crucial.

0:25:56 > 0:25:57Let's have a look at it.

0:25:57 > 0:25:58Ooooh.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01Oh, it's bad but it's not too bad.

0:26:01 > 0:26:07450 BC. The first set of Roman laws were written that year.

0:26:07 > 0:26:08Faye you've ended up with

0:26:08 > 0:26:12a total of 2633

0:26:12 > 0:26:14and that is what Aaron has to beat.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17So open up that first one for us, Aaron. Let's see what you've got.

0:26:19 > 0:26:211819 AD. A very good start.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24The year Queen Victoria was born.

0:26:24 > 0:26:25It's all on the turn

0:26:25 > 0:26:27of the last sphere. What've you got?

0:26:28 > 0:26:31Oh, it's 508 BC.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34Democracy was invented in Athens

0:26:34 > 0:26:38but it's left your tilt at the title in tatters. I'm afraid.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41That means that today's winner is Faye.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47And our winners, Faye, never go home empty-handed,

0:26:47 > 0:26:50although most of them wish they had as all our prizes are fished

0:26:50 > 0:26:52out of the Time Sewers by a stinking rodent.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55But today's prize is no stinker, Faye.

0:26:55 > 0:27:00Oh, no! In fact, today's prize is a breath of fresh air.

0:27:00 > 0:27:01Really?

0:27:01 > 0:27:05Yes. Lots of breaths of fresh air, in fact, because it's a pair of lungs!

0:27:06 > 0:27:08A pair of inflated llama lungs,

0:27:08 > 0:27:12which the Incans believed could tell the future.

0:27:12 > 0:27:16Oh, what's that? Someone's about to be given a crummy prize?

0:27:16 > 0:27:19Well, do you know what, Rattus? They work.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21Faye, there you go.

0:27:21 > 0:27:25Many apologies that it's in fact just some lungs on a bit of wood.

0:27:25 > 0:27:29And commiserations to our runners-up Daniel and Aaron,

0:27:29 > 0:27:32who I'm afraid are about to get flushed home down the Time Sewer.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36Off you go then. See you. Well played.

0:27:38 > 0:27:40If you want to play along at home next time,

0:27:40 > 0:27:43don't forget to download the Gory Games app.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Well, I've been your host with the most, Dave Lamb.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59He's been your beast with the least, Rattus Rattus.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01- Cheeky.- I know.
