0:00:02 > 0:00:05# If mummies, rats and fleas ain't your thing
0:00:05 > 0:00:08# And you don't like the sound of an exploding king
0:00:08 > 0:00:11# If you're easily scared and don't laugh at poo
0:00:11 > 0:00:13# You 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 > 0:00:22# Horrible Histories: Gory...
0:00:23 > 0:00:24# ..Games! #
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Hello and welcome to Gory Games with me, Dave Lamb.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29And me! What's my name?
0:00:29 > 0:00:30Are you all right?
0:00:30 > 0:00:35I was in my dressing room and a woman came in, screamed,
0:00:35 > 0:00:37and someone hit me with a shovel.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40I suppose that's an occupational hazard for a rat.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Oh, I'm a rat?
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Oh, that would explain the hairy arms and the whiskers.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Yeah. This is the show where you get to test your knowledge
0:00:47 > 0:00:51of Horrible Histories with quirky quiz questions and gory games.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Ah, yes, it's all coming back to me now.
0:00:53 > 0:00:54Good. Just try to keep quiet.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56Let's meet today's Horrible Historians.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58- Hi, I'm Christian.- Hi, I'm Isabel.
0:00:58 > 0:00:59Hi, I'm Harry.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01There they all are.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03- Feeling better? - Yes, thank you, Dave.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05We rats are very fast healers.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Now, remember, if you're watching at home,
0:01:07 > 0:01:10you can play along using the Gory Games app.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13If you haven't got it, check out the CBBC website.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Right. Christian, Isabel, Harry, you are playing to win Year Spheres.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Each Year Sphere contains an historical date
0:01:19 > 0:01:22and, at the end of this show, your Year Sphere dates will be added up
0:01:22 > 0:01:25with AD dates being added to your total
0:01:25 > 0:01:28and BC dates being subtracted from it.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30So, if these were your Year Spheres,
0:01:30 > 0:01:34we would add 1,215, then subtract 480,
0:01:34 > 0:01:35giving us a total of, Rattus?
0:01:35 > 0:01:37735.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Crikey, that bang on the head really has messed with your brain.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43At the end of the show the person with the highest year score
0:01:43 > 0:01:45will win a truly amazing prize.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Yes, imagine a games console, a widescreen TV.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Then forget all that and imagine some old rubbish
0:01:50 > 0:01:52that he's dragged out of the Time Sewer,
0:01:52 > 0:01:54- because that's what you're getting. - Don't worry, though,
0:01:54 > 0:01:57- I usually try to clean off most of the poo.- Bonus!
0:01:57 > 0:01:58Right, let's get cracking.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01To find out what this round's about, it's over to the Gory Grid.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04It's the Awful Egyptians.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Four questions, as always, and here are your four Egyptian topics.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Christian, it's your turn to pick first this round.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18- What are you going to go for? - Pyramids.- Pyramids.
0:02:18 > 0:02:19That is a prop question.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Oh, prop question.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23- BOTH:- Prop question, prop question.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25We're going to stop doing that now.
0:02:25 > 0:02:30True or false, pyramid workers were paid partly in radishes and garlic?
0:02:30 > 0:02:34Pyramid workers were paid partly in radishes and garlic.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36Is that true, or is that false?
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Let's see those answers now, please.
0:02:38 > 0:02:39There we go.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41So Christian and Isabel agreeing on true,
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Harry out on his own with false.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46Well, I can tell you that it is in fact true.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49After pulling huge stone bricks all day in the hot sun,
0:02:49 > 0:02:51I suspect pongy breath was the least of their worries.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54- Fancy some of that?- No, thank you, it gives you pongy breath.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56And that will be the least of your worries, as well.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59OK, Isabel, let's pick a topic, please.
0:02:59 > 0:03:00- Mummies.- Mummies.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Let's hear that question.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06True or false - in early Egyptian history,
0:03:06 > 0:03:08mummification sometimes went a bit wrong,
0:03:08 > 0:03:12and when a mummy's arms dropped off, they used a stick instead?
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Is it true, or is it false?
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Show me your answers now, please.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20OK. Everyone in total agreement. They've all gone for true.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Are they all right, or are they all wrong?
0:03:22 > 0:03:24It's true.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26You'd need some big old sticks to replace these guns, though.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Check out these babies.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31OK, Harry, your turn to pick a topic.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Tutankhamun. Tutankhamun.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38That is a question from my esteemed colleague, Mr Rattus Rattus.
0:03:38 > 0:03:43Thank you. True or false, Tutankhamun's tomb was cursed,
0:03:43 > 0:03:46so all the archaeologists who discovered it
0:03:46 > 0:03:48died soon after they entered it.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49Is that true or false?
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Show me now.
0:03:51 > 0:03:52Isabel and Harry think it's true.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54Christian out on his own with false.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55Who's right, Rattus?
0:03:55 > 0:03:59Ah, it's false, I'm afraid.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03The infamous curse of Tutankhamun was a story made up by the papers.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Howard Carter, the lead archaeologist,
0:04:06 > 0:04:08lived for another 17 years.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11So don't believe everything you read in the papers.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13OK, one question left in this round.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16It's a question on soldiers, and here it is.
0:04:16 > 0:04:22True or false - ordinary Egyptian soldiers wore ornate metal helmets?
0:04:22 > 0:04:24OK. True or false -
0:04:24 > 0:04:29ordinary Egyptian soldiers wore ornate metal helmets?
0:04:29 > 0:04:31There we go. The boys agreeing on false.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Isabel on her own with true.
0:04:33 > 0:04:34Who's right?
0:04:34 > 0:04:35It's false.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Only officers had metal helmets.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Ordinary soldiers had to protect their heads
0:04:39 > 0:04:41by growing their hair nice and thick.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Tough luck if you were bald.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Excellent. Well, that's the end of the round.
0:04:45 > 0:04:46With maximum points,
0:04:46 > 0:04:49we can see Christian has won the first Year Sphere.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53But, be warned, some of them could contain a Stone Age date,
0:04:53 > 0:04:55which could be worth a few million minus points.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Push, push, push, push, push, push, push...
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Here's a hint, Christian.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Pick a gold, shiny one.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04Oh, he's got a good reach.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06- You sure?- Yeah.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Okey dokey. Push, push, push, push, push, push, push...
0:05:08 > 0:05:12So, Christian, you are through to play the Egyptian game,
0:05:12 > 0:05:16but will you be playing alone, or will everyone else get to play too?
0:05:16 > 0:05:17Let's find out.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23It's an all play silly game,
0:05:23 > 0:05:27so that means it's off down the Time Sewer with the lot of you.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28Lead the way, Harry.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Ew!
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Eeeh!
0:05:33 > 0:05:34Help!
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Now, the ancient Egyptians were so smart
0:05:38 > 0:05:41that they built giant pyramids and invented clocks that ran on water.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42Hard to believe, then,
0:05:42 > 0:05:44that they also thought human fly traps
0:05:44 > 0:05:46were a good idea.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Yes, it's time to play...
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Flies were such a problem in ancient Egypt,
0:05:52 > 0:05:54King Pepi had honey poured over slaves
0:05:54 > 0:05:57and stood them in the corners of the room to attract the flies.
0:05:57 > 0:05:58You are a honey slave.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Your challenge - to catch as many flies on your honey suit
0:06:01 > 0:06:02and fly swat as possible.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04The person who catches the most flies in the time limit
0:06:04 > 0:06:06wins the Year Sphere.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07And here come those flies.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10In three, two, one.
0:06:10 > 0:06:11FOGHORN SOUNDS
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Here we go, then, with Honey Slaves, and remember,
0:06:13 > 0:06:16the flies either have to stick to their paddles,
0:06:16 > 0:06:20which are sticky on both sides, Rattus, or their costumes,
0:06:20 > 0:06:22which are very much like honey, aren't they?
0:06:22 > 0:06:24- They certainly are, Dave. - RATTUS LAUGHS
0:06:24 > 0:06:25They also look a little bit
0:06:25 > 0:06:27like custard monsters.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29They do. They do look like custard monsters.
0:06:29 > 0:06:30You're absolutely right.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33If you catch any tasty-looking ones, save them for me.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Well, now, come on, Rattus, let's not get involved in the game.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Christian, Isabel and Harry have got a lot to be concentrating on.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42They don't need to be sorting out your lunch...
0:06:42 > 0:06:43or your dinner.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46And lots of flies coming out now.
0:06:46 > 0:06:47Oh, look at that!
0:06:47 > 0:06:50That was a little rush of them. Must have disturbed a nest there.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Oh, they nearly stuck
0:06:51 > 0:06:53to each other's paddles there, Rattus.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55That really is one of the terrible things
0:06:55 > 0:06:56about this game.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59You can actually get stuck to each other, if you're not careful.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00- You certainly can. - Now look at this.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03We can see that Christian is aiming for them
0:07:03 > 0:07:04with his paddle,
0:07:04 > 0:07:07but a few are getting stuck to his chest.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10He is now part-covered in flies.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Look at that.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15And he's winning by a considerable margin, it has to be said.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Isabel lagging slightly behind.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Oh. Look at Christian. He's got one on his apron.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Well, that's the first time we've seen a fly there.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25He's really attracting the flies, Christian.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27I don't know if he has sprayed himself in something
0:07:27 > 0:07:30as he's come on, but he's winning this by a country mile,
0:07:30 > 0:07:32you have to say.
0:07:32 > 0:07:33- Time's up. - FOGHORN SOUNDS
0:07:33 > 0:07:36And it's all over and, for my money,
0:07:36 > 0:07:38if you ever get an infestation of flies in your house,
0:07:38 > 0:07:39there's your man.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Get behind your podiums.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Lovely, lovely, lovely.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Christian, I've never seen a man more covered in flies
0:07:47 > 0:07:50than you just were just then. Talk me through that technique.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52I was like...
0:07:52 > 0:07:55So if they miss the bat, they landed on you?
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- Yeah.- And the winner of the Year Sphere,
0:07:58 > 0:08:01with a new Gory Games record, it's Christian.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05Help yourself to another Year Sphere, Christian.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Excellent.- Dave, is it true that King Pepi
0:08:08 > 0:08:10had to prove his fitness to rule
0:08:10 > 0:08:12by running around the pyramid every 30 years?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14I believe that is true, yes.
0:08:14 > 0:08:15Wow.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18So, you'd had to do that about six times already?
0:08:18 > 0:08:19Because you're old.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Yes, I did understand it.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23OK, on to round two.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27And to find out what's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29It's the Frightful First World War.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33And here are your all-important World War I topics.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42- What, I don't know what you're looking at me for.- You're a rat.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Isabel, it's your turn to pick first this time,
0:08:44 > 0:08:46- what's it going to be? - Rats.- Rats.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51That is a question from Sir Rattus of Rattus.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Who were known by World War I soldiers
0:08:54 > 0:08:57as rats after mouldy cheese?
0:08:57 > 0:08:58Was it...?
0:09:03 > 0:09:06..or C, soldiers new to the trenches.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07It's either A, B or C.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11Let's have a look at those answers.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14OK, so the boys agreeing on B, Isabel on her own with A.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18- Who, if anyone, Rattus, is correct? - Well...
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Isabel is absolutely right with A,
0:09:20 > 0:09:23it was in fact doctors and nurses.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25They came from the Royal Army Medical Corps,
0:09:25 > 0:09:27whose initials are RAMC.
0:09:27 > 0:09:32The same initials as rats after mouldy cheese.
0:09:32 > 0:09:33The rat knows all.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35So, Harry, it's your turn to pick a topic.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Slang.- Slang. Let's hear that question.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42What was the trenches slang for toilet paper?
0:09:48 > 0:09:54Was it A, bumf, B, botty blotty, or was it C, cheeks?
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Show me your answers, everyone.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58OK, the boys agreeing again with A.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Isabel again out on her own with C.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02What's the answer?
0:10:02 > 0:10:06The answer is A, bumf. It was short for bum fodder.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Food for your bottom.
0:10:09 > 0:10:14- He just said food for your bottom. - RATTUS LAUGHS
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Food for your bottom. Food for your bottom.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20- Finished?- Bottom. - One more bottom, lovely.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Christian. Your turn to pick a topic.
0:10:23 > 0:10:24- Trenches.- Trenches.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Your question is...
0:10:38 > 0:10:40What do you think? Is it A, B or C?
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Let's see those answers now, please.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47OK, all three answers are different.
0:10:47 > 0:10:48Let's see which one was right.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52The answer is B, No Man's Land.
0:10:52 > 0:10:57Because no man would want to set foot there for fear of being shot.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59It's horrible, but it's true.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03It is indeed. So, the final question this round is on MI5.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05And here it comes.
0:11:05 > 0:11:10MI5 was Britain's top-secret spy service in World War I,
0:11:10 > 0:11:14but who did they sometimes use as messengers?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Was it A, clowns,
0:11:22 > 0:11:25B, Girl Guides, or C, squirrels?
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Again, all three answers appearing.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Let's find out who's right.
0:11:30 > 0:11:36The answer is B, MI5 used Girl Guides as secret messengers.
0:11:36 > 0:11:37Wonder if you got a badge for that?
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Probably not, wouldn't be a very good way of keeping it secret.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42So that's the end of the round.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46Two points each for Harry and Isabel, fingers on buzzers, please,
0:11:46 > 0:11:48because this is the tie-break question.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Beginning with the letter G,
0:11:50 > 0:11:52what did soldiers have to wear on their face
0:11:52 > 0:11:54to stop their lungs filling up with poison?
0:11:54 > 0:11:56BREAKING WIND SOUND EFFECT Isabel.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58- Gas masks. - Gas mask is absolutely right.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Well done, Isabel, you've won yourself a Year Sphere.
0:12:00 > 0:12:01Please collect it now.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Isabel, as the quiz winner,
0:12:05 > 0:12:07you're also free to play the World War I game,
0:12:07 > 0:12:11but will it be just you or will the others get to play too?
0:12:11 > 0:12:12Let's find out.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18It's a single player silly game.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22So, Isabel, get down that Time Sewer with you.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29The trenches of the First World War were terrible places to be,
0:12:29 > 0:12:32made even worse by all the rats.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33It's time to play...
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Just like the soldiers in those trenches,
0:12:38 > 0:12:39you've got to splat some rats.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42I'm not listening, la-la-la-la-la.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Whack 15 rats with your spade within the time limit
0:12:44 > 0:12:48to win the Year Sphere. And your time starts now.
0:12:48 > 0:12:49FOGHORN SOUNDS
0:12:49 > 0:12:52So here goes Isabel, attempting to vanquish
0:12:52 > 0:12:54vile vermin. Rattus, as usual,
0:12:54 > 0:12:56you might want to look away here.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Dave, I hate to say this,
0:12:57 > 0:12:59but I've got a horrible feeling it was Isabel
0:12:59 > 0:13:01that crowned me at the top of the show.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04It turns out that Isabel has crowned Rattus
0:13:04 > 0:13:06at the start of the show,
0:13:06 > 0:13:09and that is surely a police matter.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11And that helmet is not going to be enough
0:13:11 > 0:13:14to protect that rat from the inevitable concussion.
0:13:14 > 0:13:15In fact, talking of memory loss,
0:13:15 > 0:13:18don't forget that you can of course play along at home
0:13:18 > 0:13:20using the Gory Games app.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Seems very unfair to me, Dave,
0:13:22 > 0:13:26Isabel comes across as being such a loving, caring, considerate child,
0:13:26 > 0:13:29when in fact in reality she's a monster!
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Yes, well, that's the thing.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32Rats, they shouldn't be there, really,
0:13:32 > 0:13:34if they don't want to get bopped on the head,
0:13:34 > 0:13:36they really shouldn't be there.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38They're all wearing protective helmets now,
0:13:38 > 0:13:39I notice, it seems to have caught on.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42You might want to think about one for yourself, maybe a bandanna.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44You'd look quite nice at a jaunty angle, perhaps.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46A bandanna isn't going to afford me any protection
0:13:46 > 0:13:49- from a spade, is it, you clown?- All right.
0:13:49 > 0:13:50Dear, oh, dear.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Isabel has done it. Well, superb.
0:13:54 > 0:13:5815 rats bashed on the head, and Isabel, the smiling assassin,
0:13:58 > 0:13:59has done it.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Well done, Isabel. Congratulations.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Help yourself to another Year Sphere.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07And the soldiers didn't just whack the rats
0:14:07 > 0:14:09that voluntarily popped their heads up,
0:14:09 > 0:14:12sometimes they'd smoked the rats out of their burrows
0:14:12 > 0:14:13using explosives.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Forcing us out of our homes.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17I mean, honestly, you people
0:14:17 > 0:14:19are whatever the equivalent is of inhumane.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21In-rat-humane.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Or in-rat-ade.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Has anyone got a dictionary?
0:14:25 > 0:14:27Over to the Gory Grid to find out what's up next.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30It's the Terrible Tudors.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32And your four Tudor topics are...
0:14:36 > 0:14:39So, Harry, it's your turn to pick a topic first.
0:14:39 > 0:14:40- Cures.- Cures.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46That is a question from my dear old chum Rattus Rattus.
0:14:46 > 0:14:47I thank you.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52One cure for sickness in Tudor times was known as fustigation.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54But what did it involve?
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Was it A, fanning someone
0:14:56 > 0:14:58to give them air,
0:14:58 > 0:15:00B, sitting in a smoke-filled room,
0:15:00 > 0:15:03or C, beating them with a stick?
0:15:06 > 0:15:08What a question. Is it A, B or C?
0:15:08 > 0:15:09Show me now.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13Interesting, Isabel and Harry agree with B,
0:15:13 > 0:15:15Christian out on his own with C.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Rattus, what's the answer?
0:15:17 > 0:15:19The answer is...
0:15:19 > 0:15:21C, beating them with a stick.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24Christian, your turn to choose a topic.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25- Deaths.- Deaths.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29See what you make of this one.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48Is it A, nine out of ten, B, seven out of ten, or C, five out of ten?
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Let's see your answers.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52OK, the boys agreeing with B.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Isabel on her own this time with A.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56Let's find out.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58The answer is A.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02Nine out of ten Tudors died before their 40th birthday.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Dave, can you remember your 40th birthday?
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Or do your memories not go that far back?
0:16:10 > 0:16:12OK, let's just ignore Rattus.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Isabel, it's your turn to pick a topic.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17- Palaces.- Palaces. Let's hear the question.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20I had a huge palace built in Surrey,
0:16:20 > 0:16:23that was to be the biggest of all my building projects,
0:16:23 > 0:16:26a celebration of the power of the Tudor dynasty.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28But what did I call it?
0:16:35 > 0:16:37OK. Was it A, Ego Palace,
0:16:37 > 0:16:39was it B, Nonsuch Palace,
0:16:39 > 0:16:42or was it C, Axeminster Palace?
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Let's see your answers now, please.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46OK, total agreement on that one.
0:16:46 > 0:16:47Everybody thinks it's C.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Are they all right or are they all wrong?
0:16:50 > 0:16:53The answer is B I called it Nonsuch Palace,
0:16:53 > 0:16:56because there's no such palace as grand as it.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00Get it? No such, Nonsuch?
0:17:00 > 0:17:01I don't hear you laughing.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04AWKWARD LAUGHTER
0:17:04 > 0:17:07- That's more like it. - You don't want to upset him.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11OK, to the final question in this round, and it's a question on tax.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13Let's hear what it is.
0:17:13 > 0:17:18My daughter Elizabeth I enforced a tax which only men could pay.
0:17:18 > 0:17:19But what was it a tax on?
0:17:25 > 0:17:30Was it A, beards, B, hairy backs, or C, man boobs?
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Do you all have an answer in your heads?
0:17:33 > 0:17:36Let's see those answers now, please.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Christian, you and Isabel have agreed on A,
0:17:38 > 0:17:39Harry has gone for B.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40What's the answer?
0:17:40 > 0:17:43The answer is A, beards.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Just as well there wasn't a tax on all three.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Actually, what do I care? Tudor monarchs don't pay tax.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51So at the end of that round,
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Christian and Isabel are level on two points each.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57It's fingers on buzzers for you two.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Here we go with the tie-break question.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00Beginning with the letter E,
0:18:00 > 0:18:04what is the name of King Henry VIII's son and heir,
0:18:04 > 0:18:05who died as a teenager?
0:18:05 > 0:18:06SNEEZING SOUND EFFECT
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- Edward.- Edward is absolutely right, Christian.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Well done. Help yourself to another Year Sphere.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15So, winning the quiz means that Christian
0:18:15 > 0:18:18is automatically through to play the Tudor game,
0:18:18 > 0:18:20but will he be alone or will the others get to play too?
0:18:20 > 0:18:22Let's find out.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28It's an all play brainy game.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30So off down the Time Sewer with the lot of you.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Elizabeth I liked to look good in her portraits,
0:18:44 > 0:18:46which meant they had to look nothing like her.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Smallpox scars and years of wearing poisonous lead make-up
0:18:49 > 0:18:52meant her good looks were long lost.
0:18:52 > 0:18:53So Elizabeth made artists
0:18:53 > 0:18:55copy paintings of her as a young woman,
0:18:55 > 0:18:57rather than paint how she really looked.
0:18:57 > 0:18:58It's time to play...
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Your challenge is to assemble two perfect copies
0:19:04 > 0:19:05of an Elizabeth portrait.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07The only problem is, your two puzzles
0:19:07 > 0:19:09are made out of different misshaped pieces.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Complete your puzzles quicker than the other Horrible Historians
0:19:12 > 0:19:13to win the Year Sphere.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15In three, two, one...
0:19:15 > 0:19:17FOGHORN SOUNDS
0:19:17 > 0:19:18Here we go, then, with Puzzling Portraits.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Christian in green, Harry in yellow,
0:19:21 > 0:19:22and the rat murderer...
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Oh, sorry, Isabel in brown.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27You have to say the girls are normally
0:19:27 > 0:19:29quite good at this, aren't they, Rattus?
0:19:29 > 0:19:32They're very good at thinking in two areas at once. Multitasking.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34They are very adept at multi-skilling,
0:19:34 > 0:19:36it has to be said, Dave.
0:19:36 > 0:19:37I'm not stereotyping there
0:19:37 > 0:19:39in any way, shape or form.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Girls are just better than boys in many, many ways.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Oh, Rattus, we are going to get letters now.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46Please don't write to me, write to him.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48I must say, though, Isabel has made a tremendous start.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50Two portraits well under way.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53That one on the left is all but done.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55I can clearly make out Queen Elizabeth I there,
0:19:55 > 0:19:58smiling in her younger days. Of course,
0:19:58 > 0:20:01as she got older, she got rather less attractive
0:20:01 > 0:20:02than that, it has to be said.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04That's right, and all her teeth fell out.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06So, Harry, here he comes. He's doing extremely well himself.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Look at this, he's well under way.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11Harry, I'm very impressed with that performance.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15But, look, Isabel, she really is getting the job done here.
0:20:15 > 0:20:16She's doing this very, very well.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18It's a textbook performance in many ways.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20And Harry also doing well.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24Christian, you have to say, is lagging a little bit behind there.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Isabel really, really getting there now.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28She's doing this extremely well.
0:20:28 > 0:20:29Christian is a long way off,
0:20:29 > 0:20:32there's a bit hanging over the frame on the other side there,
0:20:32 > 0:20:35but he's not going to trouble the winner here
0:20:35 > 0:20:36cos I think the winner is about to be decided.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40She only seems to have three pieces, or four pieces possibly left.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Harry's doing extremely well, though, wait a minute,
0:20:42 > 0:20:43this could be a late run from Harry.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45I think he probably has left it too late.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48Yes, just one more piece left for Isabel now.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50There it is, she's done it.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53And there she is, celebrating with a double fist pump.
0:20:53 > 0:20:58The slight bounce, the ponytail swish, it's a three-way celebration,
0:20:58 > 0:20:59and it's much deserved.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Isabel, help yourself to another Year Sphere.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Well done. Isabel, you were absolutely magnificent.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08- Did you find it easy?- No.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Have you ever done two puzzles at once before?
0:21:10 > 0:21:13- No.- Will you be doing two puzzles at once in the future?
0:21:13 > 0:21:14- Never.- Never.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16That'll be it. That was your one time.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18- Yes.- Superb.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21In Tudor times, everyone wanted to look like Queen Elizabeth,
0:21:21 > 0:21:26so they all desired flaming red hair, just like hers.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29And you won't believe what one of the ingredients in the dye was?
0:21:29 > 0:21:31I'll take a wild guess, was it wee?
0:21:31 > 0:21:33Yes, wee, how did you know?
0:21:33 > 0:21:34Well, if you find it funny,
0:21:34 > 0:21:36it's probably got something to do
0:21:36 > 0:21:38with either number ones or number twos.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40RATTUS LAUGHS And he laughs again.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42Good. Moving swiftly on, time for the final round,
0:21:42 > 0:21:46over to the Gory Grid one last time to find out what we've got.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49It's the Rotten Romans.
0:21:49 > 0:21:50There's no quirky quiz in our final round,
0:21:50 > 0:21:54it's straight to our big all play Roman endgame.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56So, everyone, limber up.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58That's lovely. And then get down that Time Sewer.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Whenever Roman Emperor Vitellius wasn't eating,
0:22:07 > 0:22:08he liked to be eating.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Yes, old Vitellius like to have four feasts a day,
0:22:11 > 0:22:14so he needed a lot of feeding. Which is where you come in.
0:22:14 > 0:22:15It's time to play...
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Collect Emperor Vitellius's favourite
0:22:20 > 0:22:23pheasant brain and flamingo tongue pies, grapes, and fish,
0:22:23 > 0:22:25and fling them into his mouth.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27The person who gets the most in their Vitellius' gob
0:22:27 > 0:22:29within the time limit wins the Year Sphere.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31But be warned - halfway through,
0:22:31 > 0:22:34a servant is going to spill a cauldron of garum sauce,
0:22:34 > 0:22:37made out of rotten fish guts.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40- Yummy. - So things will get mighty slippy.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43Ready, steady, fling those pies!
0:22:43 > 0:22:44FOGHORN SOUNDS
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Here we go, then, with Foul Feast.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Isabel scores immediately, what a superb score that was.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52Look at that refusal of the fish.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Oh, dear me.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57The Roman catering supervisor Keepus Maximus
0:22:57 > 0:22:59will be very disappointed there.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00He's handing over...
0:23:00 > 0:23:02He's hit Isabel in the mouth with that pie!
0:23:02 > 0:23:04What is he playing at out there?
0:23:04 > 0:23:07This is the worst catering supervision we've ever seen.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09What a disgrace. Keepus, when he sees this back -
0:23:09 > 0:23:11he's normally such a good performer -
0:23:11 > 0:23:13he'll be very, very disappointed,
0:23:13 > 0:23:14but they're carrying on regardless.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Well played, the contestants.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18There go the grapes, straight through.
0:23:18 > 0:23:19Look at that!
0:23:19 > 0:23:21That is the traditional custard pie chuck.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23I love to see that, I love to see that.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26I like to see a good custard pie chuck from Harry.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28He's a great exponent of it as well.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30The traditional custard pie chuck.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32I'm very, very pleased to see it here.
0:23:32 > 0:23:33But not with the fish.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Terrible with the fish, it just doesn't work.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37That's what you want to be doing with the fish,
0:23:37 > 0:23:38end over end, fin over tail.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Or possibly underarm, it works that way too.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43But no matter how you cut it,
0:23:43 > 0:23:45the bare facts are that Harry is in the lead.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47He's taken the lead and is throwing magnificently.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50We should point out these fish
0:23:50 > 0:23:52have all been line-caught,
0:23:52 > 0:23:53they've not been hauled in
0:23:53 > 0:23:54with a great big stinky net
0:23:54 > 0:23:57that's killed other creatures. Christian draws level.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00We are of course expecting the garum sauce any moment,
0:24:00 > 0:24:02aren't, we Rattus? It's coming very, very soon...
0:24:02 > 0:24:04And it's right on top of them!
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Christian has taken that
0:24:06 > 0:24:08right on top of his head.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10I didn't think I've ever seen anyone
0:24:10 > 0:24:13get drenched in quite such a spectacular way.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15We'll see him in a minute.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Look at the state of him!
0:24:17 > 0:24:20He is absolutely covered in garum sauce.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22As is poor old Isabel.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25Dear, oh, dear. Harry is rolling around on the floor
0:24:25 > 0:24:27like a naughty puppy. Christian's down.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Christian is down.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31He's blinking it out of his eyes,
0:24:31 > 0:24:32that rotten fish sauce.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35FOGHORN SOUNDS There's the hooter, it's over.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Christian and Harry both get Year Spheres.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42But one wonders if any of them will ever stand up again!
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Back you come, everyone. Well done, well done.
0:24:44 > 0:24:45How was that for you?
0:24:45 > 0:24:47- Gungy.- Gungy?
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Christian, it landed on your head, didn't it?
0:24:50 > 0:24:52- What did it taste like?- Vinegar.
0:24:52 > 0:24:57Horrible. Christian, if you could take yours first, please.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59And, Harry, collect yours as well, please.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Despite being a total glutton himself,
0:25:02 > 0:25:06Emperor Vitellius actually killed his own mum...
0:25:06 > 0:25:08by starving her to death.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11The clue's in the name, Horrible Histories.
0:25:11 > 0:25:12Absolutely.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14It's now time to count up those Year Spheres, and remember,
0:25:14 > 0:25:19AD dates are added to your total and BC dates subtracted from it.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Christian, we are going to start with you.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Open up that first one.
0:25:23 > 0:25:261746 AD.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27The Battle of Culloden.
0:25:29 > 0:25:34377 BC, it's bad, but it's not a disaster.
0:25:34 > 0:25:35The death of Hippocrates,
0:25:35 > 0:25:37the father of medicine, that year.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Let's have a look at the third one.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44That's slightly worse, 4000 BC.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Stone Age man started farming in Britain
0:25:47 > 0:25:48around that time.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50Christian, you need this one to be a good one.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53It's a good one, but it's not that good.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55It's 122 AD.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Hadrian's Wall was built that year.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00So, Christian, you have ended up
0:26:00 > 0:26:04with a score of -2509.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Isabel, it's your turn.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08Let's have a look at your first Sphere, please.

0:26:20 > 0:26:231479 BC.
0:26:23 > 0:26:24The Egyptian Queen Hatshepsut
0:26:24 > 0:26:26came to the throne that year.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28That takes you back into the minus points.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Let's have a look at your third Sphere.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35It's 1861 AD.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37The death of Queen Victoria's husband,
0:26:37 > 0:26:38Prince Albert.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40That means you've gone into the lead, Isabel,
0:26:40 > 0:26:44and you have a total of 1,730.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47But, Isabel, you can be beaten by Harry.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Harry, let's have a look at what you've got in that Sphere.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53It's 1014 AD.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03It's not quite enough. Isabel, you are today's winner.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06And do we have a prize for you?!
0:27:06 > 0:27:08No, seriously, do we have a prize for her?
0:27:08 > 0:27:10Indeed we do, Dave.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13I've sourced some beautiful French sausages
0:27:13 > 0:27:15from a 600-year-old recipe,
0:27:15 > 0:27:18all the way from the picturesque city of Orleans.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21Wow, well, they actually sound rather delicious.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Specifically from the Siege of Orleans
0:27:23 > 0:27:25during the Hundred Years' War,
0:27:25 > 0:27:28when the trapped French peasants got so hungry
0:27:28 > 0:27:31they ate their own fingers. Bon appetit.
0:27:31 > 0:27:32I should have known.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35Well, con-rat-ulations, Isabel.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38Here you go, Isabel. Sorry it's three fingers on a plinth.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40Please don't eat it.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43It just remains for me to say thanks to Christian,
0:27:43 > 0:27:46to Isabel and to Harry, and no thanks whatsoever to Rattus.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50Your growing frustration is thanks enough, Dave.
