# If you're easily scared and don't laugh at poo

# ..Games! #

0:00:230:00:24

The important thing, Rattus, is that you're ready,

0:00:240:00:27

when we start the show, you're ready and ready to go...

0:00:270:00:29

Hello. Hello there and welcome to Gory Games with me Dave Lamb

0:00:290:00:33

and my assistant Rattus Rattus.

0:00:330:00:35

And my assistant, Marcus the Flea.

0:00:350:00:38

-Oh, no biting, Marcus, we're on television.

-Yes.

0:00:380:00:41

This is the show where you get to test your knowledge

0:00:410:00:44

of Horrible Histories...

0:00:440:00:45

..with quirky quiz questions...

0:00:450:00:48

Come on, Marcus, this is your line.

0:00:480:00:50

Marcus?

0:00:510:00:53

-Oh, my flea's gone all shy.

-HE LAUGHS

0:00:530:00:56

-MARCUS FARTS

-Oh, Marcus we're on TV.

0:00:560:00:58

DAVE GROANS IN FRUSTRATION ..and Gory Games.

0:00:580:01:01

Without further ado, let's meet today's Horrible Historians.

0:01:010:01:04

Hi, I'm Dionne.

0:01:040:01:06

Hi, I'm Melissa.

0:01:060:01:07

Hi, I'm Lloyd.

0:01:070:01:09

Welcome on board, Lloyd.

0:01:090:01:11

Remember, you can play along at home too using the Gory Games app.

0:01:110:01:14

If you haven't got it yet, check out the CBBC website.

0:01:140:01:18

Right, Dionne, Melissa and Lloyd,

0:01:180:01:21

you are playing to win Year Spheres, OK?

0:01:210:01:24

Each Year Sphere contains a historical date

0:01:240:01:26

and at the end of the show, your Sphere dates will be added up,

0:01:260:01:29

with AD dates being 'aDded' to your total

0:01:290:01:32

and BC dates being 'suBtraCted' from it.

0:01:320:01:35

So if these were your Year Spheres, for example,

0:01:350:01:38

your total would be..? Rattus?

0:01:380:01:39

Huh? Ooh, erm...

0:01:390:01:41

approximately 12.

0:01:410:01:43

No, it's 735.

0:01:430:01:45

I know. I was being very approximate.

0:01:450:01:48

Ignore him. At the end of the show,

0:01:480:01:49

the person with the highest year score

0:01:490:01:52

will win a unique historical prize.

0:01:520:01:54

That's right. Just a little something I've picked up.

0:01:540:01:57

Please do bear in mind that the last thing he picked up was the plague.

0:01:570:02:00

Oi!

0:02:000:02:02

Right, let's get cracking and to find out who this round's about,

0:02:020:02:05

it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:02:050:02:07

It's the Gorgeous Georgians.

0:02:070:02:10

And your four Georgian topics are:

0:02:100:02:13

Dionne, you get first pick seeing as it's the first round,

0:02:170:02:20

so pick away, please.

0:02:200:02:22

-Teeth.

-Let's hear the question.

0:02:220:02:24

True or false -

0:02:240:02:26

our Georgian dentists used whalebones to make false teeth.

0:02:260:02:30

So, true or false - Georgian dentists used whalebones

0:02:300:02:35

to make false teeth.

0:02:350:02:36

Let's see your answers now, please.

0:02:360:02:39

Well, Melissa and Lloyd going for true, Dionne going for false.

0:02:390:02:43

Let's find out who's right.

0:02:430:02:44

It's false.

0:02:440:02:46

But they did use walrus tusks.

0:02:460:02:48

Thankfully, they cut them down a bit first though.

0:02:480:02:51

-HE LAUGHS HEARTILY

-Marvellous.

0:02:510:02:53

Yes, thankfully.

0:02:530:02:55

Dionne, you've got off to a flying start, well done.

0:02:550:02:57

Melissa, it's your turn to pick a topic.

0:02:570:02:59

-Fashion, please.

-Fashion it is.

0:02:590:03:01

Is this true or is it false?

0:03:010:03:05

So, what do you think?

0:03:100:03:12

Is that true or is that false?

0:03:120:03:14

Let's see your answers now, please.

0:03:140:03:17

You've all gone for true.

0:03:170:03:20

Interesting. Let's find out if you're right.

0:03:200:03:24

OK, in fact it's...

0:03:240:03:26

-..true.

-It is true.

0:03:260:03:28

The huge dresses were called Mantua dresses

0:03:280:03:30

and many doorways had to be enlarged

0:03:300:03:32

so that ladies in these massive dresses could actually fit through.

0:03:320:03:36

Excuse me, does my bum look big in this?

0:03:360:03:39

Yes? Oh, good.

0:03:390:03:41

That's what they were after. RATTUS CACKLES

0:03:410:03:44

Lloyd, it's your turn to pick a topic.

0:03:440:03:46

I'll go with Milk.

0:03:460:03:48

Milk. Now that is a prop question.

0:03:480:03:50

It's a prop question. I like the prop questions.

0:03:500:03:53

Oh, my word.

0:03:530:03:54

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

0:03:540:03:56

Eurgh. That is a bucket of dirty milk.

0:03:560:04:00

Oh, it really is horrible. Here's the question relating to it.

0:04:010:04:05

True or false - Georgian milkmaids carried milk through town

0:04:050:04:08

in buckets and the milk usually had lice, spit and hair in it.

0:04:080:04:12

RATTUS SMACKS HIS LIPS Is that true or is that false?

0:04:120:04:15

Show me your answers now, please.

0:04:150:04:18

Dionne's gone for false, Melissa and Lloyd have both gone for true.

0:04:180:04:23

I can tell you that the answer is true.

0:04:230:04:26

The milk was filthy.

0:04:260:04:28

And it's absolutely delicious.

0:04:280:04:30

I'll put this down here.

0:04:300:04:32

Just lick that little mark up there, would you, Rattus?

0:04:320:04:35

Fantastic. Right, so everyone on two points.

0:04:370:04:39

It's very, very exciting.

0:04:390:04:41

One question left in this round and it's a question on Napoleon.

0:04:410:04:45

True or false - before a long march, Napoleon's French soldiers

0:04:450:04:49

would sometimes put an egg into each boot.

0:04:490:04:52

Interesting. True or false -

0:04:520:04:54

before a long march, Napoleon's French soldiers would

0:04:540:04:57

sometimes put an egg into each boot Let's see your answers now, please.

0:04:570:05:01

Dionne's gone for true.

0:05:030:05:05

Melissa and Lloyd have gone for false.

0:05:050:05:08

Let's see who's right.

0:05:080:05:09

It's true.

0:05:090:05:11

They thought this helped sooth blistered feet.

0:05:110:05:14

-RATTUS LAUGHS

-Eh, I guess they ended up

0:05:140:05:17

with a cheese omelette at the end of the march. Yummy.

0:05:170:05:21

Yes, horrible.

0:05:210:05:22

Dionne, congratulations, that means that you've won the quiz.

0:05:220:05:25

Time to choose your Year Sphere from our Trolley Wally.

0:05:250:05:29

Will you not call me that. Oh.

0:05:290:05:31

Oh, I hate it when it's all the way down here.

0:05:310:05:34

It's such a long way, argh.

0:05:340:05:36

-Hello, Dionne.

-Hello.

0:05:360:05:37

Come and choose your Year Sphere, whichever one you want.

0:05:370:05:40

Watch out though, there could be a Stone Age date in one of them

0:05:400:05:43

that's worth a few million minus points.

0:05:430:05:45

Ho-ho-ho-ho.

0:05:450:05:46

So, winning the quiz means that Dionne is automatically

0:05:490:05:51

through to play the Georgian Game, but will she be alone

0:05:510:05:55

or will everyone get to play? Let's find out.

0:05:550:05:57

It's an All Play Silly Game,

0:06:010:06:03

so that means it's off down the Time Sewer with the lot of you.

0:06:030:06:06

Off you go, Lloyd. It stinks, by the way.

0:06:060:06:09

-Eurgh!

-In you go, Melissa.

0:06:090:06:11

Eurgh, that stinks.

0:06:110:06:13

I know it does. Go on, then, down you go.

0:06:130:06:15

SHE SHRIEKS AND THEY MAKES NOISES OF DISGUST

0:06:150:06:18

Oh, it stinks in here.

0:06:190:06:21

Eeeee!

0:06:220:06:24

Now, Georgians were famous for wearing huge wigs

0:06:240:06:27

which were invariably infested with hundreds of bugs.

0:06:270:06:30

So, it's time to play:

0:06:300:06:32

Loads of fleas and lice will be

0:06:330:06:35

flinging themselves from a giant Georgian wig.

0:06:350:06:38

You have to catch as many bugs in your hair net and wig as possible.

0:06:380:06:41

The player who catches the most wins the Year Sphere.

0:06:410:06:44

Are you ready? Steady?

0:06:440:06:46

Let the flea circus begin.

0:06:460:06:48

HOOTER BLASTS

0:06:480:06:50

Here we are then, a Georgian flea fling

0:06:500:06:53

and already, the bugs of many shapes and sizes are coming out of the wig.

0:06:530:06:57

There's one now. Rattus, you must love this game.

0:06:570:07:00

I do love it.

0:07:000:07:02

I love this game for a whole myriad

0:07:020:07:04

of reasons.

0:07:040:07:05

My fleas are only a couple of millimetres

0:07:050:07:07

across, whereas these fleas are humungous.

0:07:070:07:10

These fleas have been fed quite a lot

0:07:100:07:13

of human growth hormone in order to get them up to the size

0:07:130:07:16

required for this game.

0:07:160:07:17

Not strictly legal but it's something we enjoy.

0:07:170:07:20

I think Melissa's actually managed to catch one of the bugs

0:07:200:07:22

-on her hair.

-You're absolutely right.

0:07:220:07:24

There's one hanging on to the edge

0:07:240:07:27

of her wig. That's got to be

0:07:270:07:28

a bit off-putting but it will of course count

0:07:280:07:30

towards her final total.

0:07:300:07:32

It certainly will.

0:07:320:07:33

I wonder if the contestants want to catch some of my bugs.

0:07:330:07:36

They're small but perfectly formed.

0:07:360:07:38

And they're absolutely disgusting, Rattus.

0:07:380:07:40

Don't you go near the contestants with them.

0:07:400:07:43

30 seconds remaining.

0:07:430:07:44

I believe, Dave, this is the only show on network television

0:07:440:07:47

where children are actually encouraged

0:07:470:07:49

to catch lice.

0:07:490:07:51

It's so wrong, it's right.

0:07:510:07:53

And talking of lice, look, there's another one on Melissa's head.

0:07:530:07:57

She's got two now on that wig alone.

0:07:570:07:59

A lot of these fleas seem to pop in as well

0:07:590:08:01

and then bounce out again as they reach

0:08:010:08:03

-for other ones.

-Well, that's the fleas

0:08:030:08:05

for you. Fleas bounce all over the place,

0:08:050:08:07

whereas lice tend to stick and stay

0:08:070:08:09

where they are, you can't get rid

0:08:090:08:11

of them even with a preparatory cream, Dave.

0:08:110:08:13

You can't. And a third flea now on Melissa's wig.

0:08:130:08:15

I think we're coming towards the end

0:08:150:08:17

of this game. Time is running out

0:08:170:08:18

here and that is in fact the end.

0:08:180:08:20

-It's all over.

-That is in fact the end

0:08:200:08:22

and looking at that, I can tell you that the score is 35-31-20.

0:08:220:08:25

You're extraordinary.

0:08:250:08:27

I know.

0:08:270:08:29

Back behind your podiums, please. That was tremendous.

0:08:290:08:32

That was a tremendous effort.

0:08:320:08:34

But the winner with 35 bugs was Dionne.

0:08:340:08:38

Well done, Dionne, help yourself to another Year Sphere, Dionne.

0:08:380:08:41

Two Year Spheres. No Year Spheres yet for the other but plenty of time

0:08:410:08:45

to catch up and to find up whose up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:08:450:08:49

It's the Vile Victorians. Good day.

0:08:490:08:52

And here are your all-important Victorian topics.

0:08:520:08:56

Melissa, it's your turn to pick first.

0:09:010:09:03

Florence Nightingale.

0:09:030:09:04

True or false - famous Victorian nurse Florence Nightingale

0:09:060:09:10

-used to have a pet ferret which she kept in her pocket.

-Mmm.

0:09:100:09:13

True or false - famous Victorian nurse Florence Nightingale

0:09:130:09:17

used to have a pet ferret which she kept in her pocket.

0:09:170:09:22

Melissa and Lloyd going for false.

0:09:220:09:24

Dionne for true. Let's find out what the answer is.

0:09:240:09:27

It's false.

0:09:270:09:28

Florence used to keep a pet owl in her pocket

0:09:280:09:31

who she called Athena.

0:09:310:09:32

That's a nice name.

0:09:320:09:34

Right, Lloyd, your turn to pick a topic.

0:09:340:09:36

Gadgets, please.

0:09:360:09:38

Gadgets. And that is a prop question.

0:09:380:09:40

-It's a prop question.

-It's a prop question.

0:09:400:09:42

Ohh, look at that.

0:09:420:09:44

That is a genuine Victorian contraption

0:09:440:09:47

for removing rotten teeth.

0:09:470:09:49

Is that true or is that false?

0:09:490:09:51

So, this genuine Victorian contraption

0:09:510:09:54

was for removing rotten teeth.

0:09:540:09:56

The girls are going for false, Lloyd out on his own with true.

0:09:580:10:02

The answer is...

0:10:020:10:04

false. Unfortunately.

0:10:040:10:06

It is in fact for peeling peaches, believe it or not.

0:10:060:10:10

Alternatively, you can leave the peaches to rot

0:10:100:10:13

for a couple of weeks, then suck them up with a straw.

0:10:130:10:16

Delish.

0:10:160:10:17

That's if you're a rat.

0:10:170:10:19

There's the scores, so, Melissa, you're in the lead this round

0:10:190:10:22

with two points. Dionne and Lloyd you have a point apiece.

0:10:220:10:25

All still to play for.

0:10:250:10:26

Dionne, your turn to choose next.

0:10:260:10:29

Poetry, please.

0:10:290:10:30

What do you think? Is this true or false?

0:10:310:10:36

This might be my favourite question ever.

0:10:440:10:47

Show me your answers now, please.

0:10:470:10:49

Everybody has gone for true.

0:10:490:10:52

Interesting.

0:10:520:10:54

The fact of the matter is,

0:10:540:10:56

it's true.

0:10:560:10:58

RATTUS LAUGHS

0:10:580:11:00

There once was a poet most smart,

0:11:000:11:03

whose lyrics were praised as high art.

0:11:030:11:06

He mimed doing a poo on an imaginary loo,

0:11:060:11:09

but one thing was real.

0:11:090:11:11

-HE MAKES A FARTING SOUND

-His fart!

0:11:110:11:12

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

0:11:120:11:15

Thank you, Rattus. RATTUS LAUGHS

0:11:150:11:16

You're in the lead, Melissa. One question left this round

0:11:160:11:19

and it's a question on:

0:11:190:11:21

True or false -

0:11:230:11:25

Queen Victoria was the shortest monarch in British history.

0:11:250:11:28

So, was Queen Victoria the shortest adult monarch in British history?

0:11:280:11:33

Let's see your answers now, please.

0:11:330:11:35

Everybody has gone for true.

0:11:350:11:38

Let's find out.

0:11:380:11:39

It's true. Victoria was only five foot tall.

0:11:390:11:42

I guess that old crown added a few inches, though,

0:11:420:11:45

I could do with one of those myself. I'm four foot five.

0:11:450:11:49

Short in stature, long in reign.

0:11:490:11:51

And at the end of that round, Melissa, you have a full house.

0:11:510:11:54

You've scored four out of four and that means you've won a Year Sphere.

0:11:540:11:57

Congratulations.

0:11:570:11:58

OK, Melissa, as the winner of the quiz,

0:12:000:12:03

you're through to play the Victorian Game,

0:12:030:12:05

but will be just your or will the others gets to play too?

0:12:050:12:09

It's a Single Player Brainy Game.

0:12:120:12:15

So, Melissa, it's off down the Time Sewer with you on your own.

0:12:150:12:19

It really does stink.

0:12:190:12:20

DAVE COUGHS Crikey.

0:12:230:12:26

Eccentric Victorian William Buckland loved natural history and filled

0:12:290:12:33

his house with every kind of animal, then proceeded to eat them all.

0:12:330:12:37

In fact, he ate all sorts of unusual foods,

0:12:370:12:39

like for instance, mouse on toast.

0:12:390:12:41

It's time to play:

0:12:410:12:43

Seven bizarre foodstuffs then, but two weren't eaten by barmy Buckland.

0:12:450:12:49

You have to work out which five things he really consumed.

0:12:490:12:52

Choose five and move them to the eaten board,

0:12:520:12:55

then touch the mouse on toast to find out how many you've got right.

0:12:550:12:59

Keep trying new combinations of names until you've got all five,

0:12:590:13:02

but you've got to be quick because you're against the clock.

0:13:020:13:05

Your time starts now. HOOTER BLASTS

0:13:050:13:08

So then, what does Melissa think that barmy Buckland used to eat?

0:13:080:13:12

Her first choice, I can tell you, is roast giraffe.

0:13:120:13:15

And talking of roast giraffe, Rattus, don't forget you can

0:13:150:13:18

of course play along at home with the Gory Games App.

0:13:180:13:21

The mummified heart of Louis XIV, an elephant's trunk.

0:13:210:13:25

What a varied diet he had.

0:13:250:13:27

If this is right, what an extraordinary diet the man had.

0:13:270:13:30

Stewed bluebottles is next. She's doing very well.

0:13:320:13:35

She assessing this and doing it quickly. A mole.

0:13:350:13:37

-On to the mouse on toast.

-You have all five right.

0:13:370:13:40

She's done it already. Extraordinary!

0:13:400:13:42

Here you are, I got you a tea. Is she ready to start?

0:13:420:13:45

-It's finished.

-What?

0:13:450:13:47

Melissa, help yourself to a Year Sphere.

0:13:470:13:50

That's right, Buckland didn't eat a dodo,

0:13:500:13:52

a species which had died out long before Buckland was born.

0:13:520:13:55

Nor did he eat the mummified toe of Pharaoh Tutankhamen,

0:13:550:13:59

whose tomb was not discovered until after Buckland had died.

0:13:590:14:02

But Buckland really did eat all the others. Yeah!

0:14:020:14:05

Including the mummified heart of Louis XIV. Eurgh.

0:14:050:14:09

Apparently, he said, "I have eaten many strange things

0:14:090:14:13

"but have never eaten the heart of a king before."

0:14:130:14:17

Nor I, to my knowledge,

0:14:170:14:19

but who knows what meat they actually put in a hot dog, eh?

0:14:190:14:23

Over to the Gory Grid to find out what's up next.

0:14:230:14:25

It's the Measly Middle Ages.

0:14:250:14:28

Four questions as always

0:14:280:14:30

and here are your four Middle Ages topics.

0:14:300:14:33

Lloyd, it's your turn to pick first. Pick a topic.

0:14:370:14:40

-Monks, please.

-Monks.

0:14:400:14:42

One wise monk wrote all about Britain's early history.

0:14:430:14:47

His name was Bede, but by what name is he better know?

0:14:470:14:51

A - the venerable Bede,

0:14:510:14:54

B - the honourable Bede

0:14:540:14:57

or C - boring Bede?

0:14:570:15:00

Let's see your answers now, please.

0:15:000:15:02

The girls are going for Bs.

0:15:030:15:05

Lloyds out on his own with an A. Let's see who's right.

0:15:050:15:08

The answer is A - the venerable Bede.

0:15:080:15:11

Which means he was admired and respected.

0:15:110:15:14

Much like the venerable Dave.

0:15:140:15:16

What do you want, Rattus?

0:15:160:15:17

Nothing. Well, can I have a go in your Jacuzzi?

0:15:170:15:21

It's not a Jacuzzi, it's a toilet.

0:15:210:15:23

I know, but can I anyway?

0:15:230:15:24

Help yourself.

0:15:240:15:26

Lloyd, you're off to a cracking start -

0:15:260:15:28

one point on the board already.

0:15:280:15:29

Dionne, it's your turn to choose a topic.

0:15:290:15:31

Erm, Cures.

0:15:310:15:33

Oh, it's a prop question.

0:15:330:15:35

Let's see it. Ho-ho-ho-ho!

0:15:350:15:37

There it is.

0:15:380:15:40

This is a magpie's beak,

0:15:400:15:42

but why would a person from the Middle Ages

0:15:420:15:45

wear it around their neck?

0:15:450:15:47

Would it be A - for good luck,

0:15:470:15:49

B - to cure toothache

0:15:490:15:51

or C - to ward off demons and ghosts?

0:15:510:15:53

Show me your answers now, please.

0:15:560:15:59

You've all gone for C.

0:15:590:16:01

You all think it's to ward off demons and ghosts.

0:16:010:16:03

Well, I can tell you that the actual answer is...

0:16:030:16:06

B. It's a cure for toothache.

0:16:060:16:10

Dave doesn't need a cure. He's got false teeth.

0:16:100:16:14

OK, you're on a final warning now.

0:16:160:16:17

-Again?

-Yeah, again.

0:16:170:16:19

Melissa, your turn to choose a topic.

0:16:190:16:22

-Can I have sport, please?

-Sport.

0:16:220:16:24

A man called John Rivers found his Lord's hunting hawk

0:16:260:16:29

on the roof of his house but failed to report it.

0:16:290:16:32

What was his punishment?

0:16:320:16:34

A - he was fined 100 shillings,

0:16:340:16:36

B - he had one of his hands cut off

0:16:360:16:39

or C - he had flesh cut from his chest and fed to the hawk?

0:16:390:16:43

Let's see your answers now then, please.

0:16:430:16:45

Very interesting.

0:16:450:16:47

Lloyd and Dionne going for Cs, Melissa for B.

0:16:470:16:50

Let's find out who's right.

0:16:510:16:52

The answer is C.

0:16:520:16:54

He had 6oz of flesh cut from his chest and fed to the hawk.

0:16:540:16:58

I'm guessing he didn't do that again.

0:16:580:17:01

-Even that makes me feel queasy.

-HE RETCHES

0:17:010:17:04

Hold it in, Rattus, I don't want to see any sick on the table.

0:17:040:17:07

Good man. OK, through to the final question now, this round.

0:17:070:17:10

Lloyd, you've got two points, you can't be caught by Melissa

0:17:100:17:13

but you can still be caught by Dionne.

0:17:130:17:16

So, the final question is on kings. Let's hear what it is.

0:17:160:17:19

Richard the Lionheart was King of England for ten years

0:17:190:17:22

but during this time, how long was he actually in England?

0:17:220:17:26

A - ten years,

0:17:260:17:28

B - two years

0:17:280:17:29

or C - six months?

0:17:290:17:31

What do you think? Is it A, B or C?

0:17:310:17:34

Let's see your answers now, please.

0:17:340:17:37

Dionne and Lloyd going for C, Melissa for A.

0:17:370:17:40

Let's find out what the actual answer is.

0:17:400:17:42

C - six months.

0:17:420:17:44

He spent all his time crusading because he hated England.

0:17:440:17:49

I guess he wasn't a big fan of rain and mud.

0:17:490:17:52

Excellent. At the end of that round, Lloyd, you have won yourself

0:17:520:17:55

your first Year Sphere. Congratulations.

0:17:550:17:58

So, Lloyd, you're through to play the Middle Ages game, but will it

0:17:580:18:01

be All Play or will you be playing on your own? Let's find out.

0:18:010:18:04

It's a Single Player Silly Game.

0:18:080:18:11

Hmm, so, Lloyd, get down that Time Sewer.

0:18:110:18:14

HE YELLS

0:18:160:18:18

And he was gone.

0:18:180:18:19

Picture the scene.

0:18:230:18:24

It's the court of King Louis XI of France in the 1400s

0:18:240:18:27

and he has just been delivered a musical instrument,

0:18:270:18:30

the like of which has never been seen before.

0:18:300:18:32

It's time to play the:

0:18:320:18:33

The instrument consisted of pigs of different sizes and a keyboard.

0:18:350:18:39

Play a key and a little spike would prick a piggy and make it squeal.

0:18:390:18:43

The larger the pig, the deeper the squeal.

0:18:430:18:46

Your challenge is to listen to and repeat a sequence of piggy squeals.

0:18:460:18:50

The sequence will get one squeal longer each time.

0:18:500:18:54

Correctly repeat nine squeals within the time limit to win a Year Sphere.

0:18:540:18:58

Get one note wrong and er, well, you'll find out.

0:18:580:19:02

Let's get squealing.

0:19:020:19:04

HOOTER BLASTS

0:19:040:19:06

So, Lloyd attempts pig piano. Here comes his first sequence.

0:19:060:19:10

There it is. He's got to replicate that, remember,

0:19:100:19:13

In order to stay in the game.

0:19:130:19:15

One mistake and it's all over.

0:19:150:19:17

I have to reiterate that. He's made a good start though, Rattus.

0:19:170:19:20

He's made an excellent start, Dave.

0:19:200:19:22

My fear is if he goes wrong cos these pigs have all been

0:19:220:19:25

eating chocolate ice cream and raw onions, all morning.

0:19:250:19:28

Oh, well that-that could be terrible news for Lloyd because

0:19:280:19:31

if he does go wrong, something unspeakable happens, I'm afraid.

0:19:310:19:35

But he's not gone wrong yet. That's four.

0:19:350:19:37

He's done the second sequence, moving on to five.

0:19:370:19:40

PIGS SQUEAL

0:19:400:19:41

Now it's up to Lloyd to repeat that. Yes, a good start.

0:19:440:19:48

The fourth and I think the fifth one was the green.

0:19:510:19:54

-Oh, no. Oh, I think he's gone wrong. Oh, no.

-He's gone wrong.

0:19:540:19:57

-Oh, no.

-It's missed, he's swerved out of the way of it, though.

0:19:570:20:01

He's cleverly avoided that, I like that very much.

0:20:010:20:03

What is happening to that pig?

0:20:030:20:05

It's having the most confusing poo I've ever seen.

0:20:050:20:08

Welcome back, Lloyd. Take your place behind your podium.

0:20:100:20:14

Bad luck, bad luck.

0:20:140:20:15

There have been numerous reports of the legendary pig piano throughout

0:20:150:20:18

history and they've had different names, like the hog harmonium.

0:20:180:20:22

The swineaway.

0:20:220:20:23

The pig organ.

0:20:230:20:25

The pigarno.

0:20:250:20:26

And if you'd like instructions on how to build your own pig piano,

0:20:260:20:29

then I'm going to report you to the RSPCA.

0:20:290:20:32

RATTUS LAUGHS

0:20:320:20:33

I will do it, don't test me on that one.

0:20:330:20:36

Lloyd that was extraordinary. Very difficult

0:20:360:20:38

but what I liked is the way you swerved the poo at the end.

0:20:380:20:41

Yeah, spoilsport.

0:20:410:20:43

We were quite looking forward to seeing someone getting

0:20:430:20:45

covered in poo but you body-swerved it nicely.

0:20:450:20:47

Time for the final round.

0:20:470:20:49

It's over to the Gory Grid one last time to find out what we've got.

0:20:490:20:53

It's the Vicious Vikings.

0:20:530:20:55

So, no Quirky Quiz in our final round.

0:20:560:20:58

It's straight to our big All Play Viking Endgame.

0:20:580:21:02

And it's a scary one.

0:21:020:21:03

Let's see you get down that Time Sewer one last time.

0:21:040:21:08

Eurgh!

0:21:080:21:11

You never get used to it - it's absolutely revolting.

0:21:140:21:17

Stinks in here.

0:21:170:21:19

Eeeee!

0:21:190:21:21

Picture the scene - it's 793 AD,

0:21:210:21:24

you are a monk, busy minding your own business on the island monastery

0:21:240:21:28

of Lindisfarne when suddenly... HE ROARS

0:21:280:21:31

RATTUS CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:21:340:21:36

..you've got some unwanted visitors.

0:21:360:21:38

It's time to play -

0:21:380:21:39

Your only hope of survival is that the Vikings won't hear you

0:21:410:21:45

so you'd better not step on a squeaky floorboard.

0:21:450:21:47

Your challenge is to find the one squeak-free path

0:21:470:21:50

through the wooden panels.

0:21:500:21:52

Step on a squeaky one and you'll be sent back to the start.

0:21:520:21:55

Reach the end of the path and you are faced with two doors.

0:21:550:21:58

Choose well - for behind one is freedom, behind the other is...

0:21:580:22:02

HE ROARS AGAIN

0:22:020:22:04

..the Viking fella with the thing.

0:22:040:22:07

Sounded like a weasel with a throat infection.

0:22:070:22:09

Well, it's a Viking.

0:22:090:22:10

Find him and you have to start all over again.

0:22:100:22:13

Ready, steady... HOOTER BLASTS

0:22:130:22:15

So, here we go with Viking Attack then. A very cagey start.

0:22:150:22:19

One or two squeaky floorboards instantly.

0:22:190:22:22

Of course, there is a one in three chance of getting it right

0:22:220:22:25

with that first step. Dionne has made the first step

0:22:250:22:28

-but not the second.

-No.

-It's a slow start.

0:22:280:22:31

It's a difficult one this, though

0:22:310:22:33

because there's a one-in-three chance almost all the way up.

0:22:330:22:35

It's a game of trial and error

0:22:350:22:37

and then you have to remember your errors,

0:22:370:22:41

as Melissa hasn't done there.

0:22:410:22:43

We should have called this game

0:22:430:22:45

Hide And Squeak, Dave.

0:22:450:22:47

Yes! Why?

0:22:470:22:48

Never mind. Dionne there seems to be having trouble working out

0:22:510:22:54

her first step, which is extraordinary.

0:22:540:22:56

Lloyd, halfway along now, lovely.

0:22:560:22:58

There are those monks at the back there of course,

0:22:580:23:01

keeping a close watch on proceedings,

0:23:010:23:03

because it's their monastery after all, and don't forget, as Lloyd...

0:23:030:23:07

Oh, I thought Lloyd was getting close.

0:23:070:23:08

Remember those doors at the end,

0:23:080:23:10

they've got two doors each

0:23:100:23:12

to choose from. Behind one door lies freedom,

0:23:120:23:14

behind the other, an axe-wielding homicidal maniac.

0:23:140:23:18

RATTUS CACKLES

0:23:180:23:19

Obviously, you're after freedom there.

0:23:190:23:22

I said it would be good if they had to

0:23:220:23:24

duck flying Viking axes as well.

0:23:240:23:26

I remember - I was at that meeting.

0:23:260:23:28

-Didn't go for it.

-No, they didn't.

0:23:280:23:31

Just as you think they're doing well,

0:23:310:23:33

a little mistake creeps in.

0:23:330:23:35

I think what's happening here is,

0:23:350:23:36

-you're cursing them.

-I think maybe I am.

0:23:360:23:39

I think maybe I should stop saying the words, "Doing well."

0:23:390:23:42

Look at that - Dionne's...

0:23:420:23:44

Argh, even if I don't say them, I curse them.

0:23:440:23:46

-You're thinking it.

-Even if I just think

0:23:460:23:48

-them.

-Just by thinking it.

0:23:480:23:49

In that case, I'm going to have to control

0:23:490:23:51

my mind, very, very closely.

0:23:510:23:53

What am I talking about?

0:23:530:23:54

of course my mind's not having any influence on this at all.

0:23:540:23:57

Here's Lloyd. Come on, Lloyd, you're doing very, very well.

0:23:570:24:00

-DOOR CREAKS

-Oh, no.

0:24:000:24:02

Dionne? Oh, dear. Someone must get there eventually

0:24:020:24:06

and Melissa could be that person. Look at this.

0:24:060:24:08

This is very impressive, just one more step to go and she's there.

0:24:080:24:12

Melissa has actually made it through.

0:24:120:24:14

Now, this is where it gets very,

0:24:140:24:16

very interesting. It's a 50/50 chance.

0:24:160:24:18

-Oh!

-Oh, it's freedom.

-Excellent choice.

-Freedom.

0:24:180:24:21

And she's celebrating rather than being carried off on a stretcher.

0:24:210:24:24

Melissa, go and help yourself to another Year Sphere. Fantastic.

0:24:270:24:31

When Lindisfarne was attacked, monks managed to get away with

0:24:310:24:34

one of their most holy relics - the body of St Cuthbert.

0:24:340:24:38

They carried it around for seven years to make sure

0:24:380:24:41

the Vikings didn't get hold of it.

0:24:410:24:43

I've been carrying someone for years, too.

0:24:430:24:46

Are you saying you're carrying me cos I'm not up to the job?

0:24:460:24:49

No, I was talking about Marcus - my flea.

0:24:490:24:51

But now you mention it...

0:24:510:24:53

Time to count up those Year Spheres and remember,

0:24:550:24:58

AD years are added to your total and BC years are subtracted from it.

0:24:580:25:02

So, Dionne, start us off please,

0:25:020:25:04

could you open up your first Year Sphere?

0:25:040:25:07

Let's find out what's inside.

0:25:070:25:09

1871 AD -

0:25:100:25:13

the year that Queen Victoria

0:25:130:25:15

opened the Albert Hall.

0:25:150:25:16

1587 AD -

0:25:180:25:21

the execution of Mary Queen of Scots

0:25:210:25:23

but that gives you an excellent, excellent total of 3,458.

0:25:230:25:30

Melissa, let's see what you've got in your first sphere.

0:25:300:25:33

1305 AD -

0:25:330:25:35

the execution of William Wallace.

1770 AD -

0:25:390:25:42

Captain Cook claims Australia for Britain

0:25:420:25:45

in that year.

0:25:450:25:46

That gives you a running total at the moment of 3,075.

0:25:460:25:50

You need just under 400 positive years to beat Dionne.

0:25:500:25:54

Let's open that next sphere.

0:25:540:25:56

Oh, my word!

0:25:580:26:00

It's 10,000 BC -

0:26:000:26:03

Stone Age man first domesticated dogs

0:26:030:26:06

about then, but that's no consolation at all,

0:26:060:26:09

is it, Melissa? And you've ended up

0:26:090:26:10

with a total of minus 6,925.

0:26:100:26:14

Lloyd, let's see what you've got

0:26:140:26:16

in your Year Sphere.

0:26:160:26:19

-It's...

-Ooh!

-..2,500 BC -

0:26:190:26:22

the stones were added to Stonehenge that year.

0:26:220:26:26

So that means today's winner,

0:26:260:26:27

with 3,458 points is Dionne.

0:26:270:26:30

Congratulations, Dionne.

0:26:300:26:32

Excellent.

0:26:320:26:34

Who goes home with our star prize and today's prize is not like

0:26:340:26:38

the prizes on any other game show, which is a shame because

0:26:380:26:41

it's some old rubbish the rat has dragged out of the Time Sewer.

0:26:410:26:44

What have got today, Rattus?

0:26:440:26:46

Well, you certainly can't say that this prize is pointless.

0:26:460:26:49

In fact, it couldn't have more of a point if it tried, yeah?

0:26:490:26:54

It's the tip of a Roman gladiator's spear.

0:26:540:26:58

Roman ladies believed it was good luck to comb their hair

0:26:580:27:01

with the spear of a dead gladiator.

0:27:010:27:04

Exactly how does combing your hair with a spear constitute good luck?

0:27:040:27:07

Well, it does if you've always wished for hair that's matted

0:27:070:27:10

-with congealed gladiator blood.

-Oh, yeah.

0:27:100:27:13

Well, con-RAT-ulations, Dionne.

0:27:140:27:16

Yes, there you go, Dionne, so sorry about the blood on it.

0:27:160:27:19

Thank you.

0:27:190:27:21

Maybe you could display it somewhere you can't it see it.

0:27:210:27:24

Well, it just remains for me to say thanks to our winner, Dionne.

0:27:240:27:28

Thanks to our runners up, Melissa and Lloyd

0:27:280:27:31

and no thanks whatsoever to Rattus.

0:27:310:27:33

I aim to please.
