# Horrible Histories' Gory...

Games. #

0:00:230:00:24

Welcome to Gory Games.

0:00:240:00:26

I'm the star of the show,

0:00:260:00:28

Rattus Rattus.

0:00:280:00:29

And I'm the other star of the show,

0:00:290:00:32

Dave Lamb!

0:00:320:00:33

Yeah, course you are!

0:00:330:00:35

I like to keep Dave around. He's dead wood.

0:00:350:00:38

But you know, really great comedians like to play off a straight man!

0:00:380:00:42

Who are you talking to, Rattus?

0:00:420:00:43

To my fans on my PooTube channel,

0:00:430:00:46

they love a bit of behind-the-scenes action.

0:00:460:00:48

Yeah, I'm keeping it real!

0:00:480:00:50

Did you just say "PooTube"?

0:00:500:00:52

Obviously.

0:00:520:00:54

Let's just crack on and meet today's Horrible Historians!

0:00:540:00:58

Hello, I'm Bobbie and I'm from Manchester.

0:00:580:01:01

Hello, Bobbie.

0:01:010:01:02

Hi, I'm Ollie and I'm from Ipswich.

0:01:020:01:05

Hello, Ollie.

0:01:050:01:07

Hi, I'm Millie and I'm from Oxford.

0:01:070:01:09

Hello, Millie. They're looking good today, eh, viewers?

0:01:090:01:13

Welcome everyone, welcome.

0:01:130:01:15

Right, you are here playing to win Year Spheres.

0:01:150:01:18

The person with the highest Year score at the end, will win

0:01:180:01:20

a putrid prize, dredged out of the Time Sewer by Rattus Rattus.

0:01:200:01:24

Ah, Dave's only pretending to find it disgusting.

0:01:240:01:27

I certainly am not!

0:01:270:01:29

Now, don't forget, you can play along at home

0:01:290:01:31

and win Year Spheres of your own.

0:01:310:01:33

Yeah, just download the Gory Games App from the CBBC Website.

0:01:330:01:37

It's free!

0:01:370:01:39

So, what's our first round all about?

0:01:390:01:41

Let's go over to the Gory Grid.

0:01:410:01:43

It's the Rotten Romans.

0:01:450:01:47

Four questions on the Rotten Romans coming up.

0:01:470:01:50

The person who gets the most right, wins the first Year Sphere.

0:01:500:01:53

And your four Roman topics are...

0:01:530:01:55

Meals,

0:01:550:01:56

Chariots,

0:01:560:01:58

Emperors

0:01:580:01:59

and Leadership.

0:01:590:02:00

And Millie, you get to pick first, in this first round.

0:02:000:02:03

Emperors, please.

0:02:030:02:04

Emperors it is, let's hear that question.

0:02:040:02:07

Emperor Elagabalus created a lottery,

0:02:070:02:09

in which Romans could win slaves and houses,

0:02:090:02:12

but he also threw in some booby prizes,

0:02:120:02:15

which of these was not one of Elagabalus' booby prizes?

0:02:150:02:19

A. Dead dog,

0:02:190:02:21

B. Swarm of bees,

0:02:210:02:22

C. Bucket of chicken guts.

0:02:220:02:26

They're almost as good as my Gory Games prizes.

0:02:260:02:29

Sound absolutely appalling.

0:02:290:02:32

So, what do you think? Do you think it's A, B or C?

0:02:320:02:35

Show me now, please.

0:02:350:02:37

Interesting, Millie and Ollie have agreed on B.

0:02:370:02:40

Bobbie thinks it's A. What's the answer, please?

0:02:400:02:43

The answer is...

0:02:430:02:44

C.

0:02:440:02:45

The bucket of chicken guts was not a prize.

0:02:450:02:49

Bad luck everybody, no points scored as yet.

0:02:490:02:51

Ollie, pick a topic.

0:02:510:02:53

Could I have Meals, please?

0:02:530:02:56

You certainly can, Ollie, that is a question from Rattus Rattus.

0:02:560:02:59

The Romans used to love covering their meals with garum sauce,

0:02:590:03:03

but what was in garum sauce? Was it...

0:03:030:03:06

A. Rotten fish guts,

0:03:060:03:08

B. Squashed beetles,

0:03:080:03:10

C...

0:03:100:03:12

Goose vomit?

0:03:140:03:15

I'm liking garum sauce already!

0:03:150:03:17

What was in garum sauce? Was it... A. Rotten fish guts

0:03:170:03:19

B. Squashed beetles,

0:03:190:03:21

C. Goose vomit?

0:03:210:03:22

Show me now, please.

0:03:220:03:23

Girls agree, they think it's A.

0:03:230:03:24

Ollie thinks it's C.

0:03:240:03:26

What's the answer, Rattus?

0:03:260:03:27

The answer is, A, Rotten Fish Guts.

0:03:270:03:31

But I can wholeheartedly recommend squashed beetles

0:03:310:03:34

and goose vomit as well!

0:03:340:03:36

Yes, remind me not to come round for dinner, Rattus.

0:03:360:03:39

Well done, Millie and Bobbie, that is a point apiece, you

0:03:390:03:42

are off the mark. Still plenty of time to catch up, Ollie,

0:03:420:03:45

don't worry.

0:03:450:03:46

Bobbie, your turn to pick a topic.

0:03:460:03:47

-Leadership, please.

-Let's hear the question.

0:03:470:03:50

In Ancient Rome, which feature was considered

0:03:500:03:53

a sign of leadership?

0:03:530:03:54

A. Big Ears

0:03:540:03:56

B. Baldness

0:03:560:03:58

C. Crooked Nose?

0:03:580:04:00

Oh, just tell me it's not baldness.

0:04:000:04:03

It's certainly baldness in the modern day.

0:04:030:04:06

In Ancient Rome, which feature was considered a sign of leadership?

0:04:060:04:09

Was it A. Big Ears,

0:04:090:04:11

B. Baldness,

0:04:110:04:12

C. Crooked Nose?

0:04:120:04:13

Show me now, please.

0:04:130:04:15

Everybody has gone for B, what's the answer, please?

0:04:150:04:19

The answer is...

0:04:190:04:20

C. A crooked nose.

0:04:200:04:23

Tricky round this so far, isn't it, very, very difficult questions.

0:04:230:04:27

We have one category left in this round, it's on chariots.

0:04:270:04:30

And here it is.

0:04:300:04:31

Chariot racing was totally lethal,

0:04:310:04:34

most of the drivers would die on the track, in spectacular crashes.

0:04:340:04:38

But, what were these crashes called?

0:04:380:04:40

A. Wipeouts,

0:04:400:04:42

B. Ship Wrecks,

0:04:420:04:44

C. Red Zones?

0:04:440:04:46

Chariot racing, very, very dangerous,

0:04:460:04:48

lots and lots of crashes, what were these crashes called, was it...

0:04:480:04:51

A. Wipeouts,

0:04:510:04:52

B. Ship Wrecks,

0:04:520:04:54

C. Red Zones?

0:04:540:04:55

Show me your answers now, please.

0:04:550:04:58

Wow, Millie thinks it's A, Ollie and Bobbie agree on B,

0:04:580:05:01

what's the answer?

0:05:010:05:03

The answer is...

0:05:030:05:04

B.

0:05:040:05:05

Spectacular chariot crashes were called ship wrecks,

0:05:050:05:08

as wood and people would fly everywhere.

0:05:080:05:11

We Romans sure knew a thing or two about entertainment.

0:05:110:05:14

Good grief!

0:05:150:05:16

Well, congratulations Ollie and Bobbie, a point apiece there.

0:05:160:05:20

And what that means is, at the end of this round, Bobbie,

0:05:200:05:23

you are the winner of the first Year Sphere.

0:05:230:05:27

And that in turn means that it's time for me to say...

0:05:270:05:30

All hail the potty pyramid!

0:05:300:05:32

Dave always hams up that bit!

0:05:350:05:37

Stick it on your podium,

0:05:400:05:41

we'll find out what's in there at the end of the show.

0:05:410:05:44

Now, winning the Roman quiz means Bobbie is automatically

0:05:440:05:47

through to play the Roman game, but will she be alone?

0:05:470:05:50

Or will everyone else get to play too?

0:05:500:05:52

Let's find out.

0:05:520:05:54

It's a single player silly game, so, come on, Bobbie.

0:05:550:05:59

Off down that Time Sewer on your own, go on get in there.

0:05:590:06:02

Urgh!

0:06:020:06:03

It does stink.

0:06:030:06:05

It's dog eat dog and Roman against Roman in 31BC, as

0:06:060:06:10

generals Mark Antony and Octavian scrap it out on the high seas.

0:06:100:06:14

It's time to play The Battle Of Actium

0:06:140:06:18

Your job, as a crew mate in Octavian's Navy, is to splat

0:06:180:06:22

Mark Antony's fleet into oblivion,

0:06:220:06:23

Using your historically accurate-ish catapult.

0:06:230:06:27

There's one point for every ship you sink and two points

0:06:270:06:29

if you hit Mark Antony's blue ship.

0:06:290:06:31

Score five points, in the time limit, to win your Year Sphere.

0:06:310:06:34

The battle begins...now

0:06:340:06:38

Of course, that really is an unstable platform she's firing from

0:06:380:06:42

there, isn't it, Rattus?

0:06:420:06:43

Yeah, poor Bobbie, bobbing about.

0:06:430:06:45

-Hopefully not being sick.

-I'd quite like that.

0:06:450:06:47

Well, it would be a nice meal for you, I suppose.

0:06:470:06:49

Bounced right off.

0:06:490:06:50

It will bounce straight off, you've got to hit high on the sail.

0:06:500:06:53

And she really needs to understand that.

0:06:530:06:56

The battle of Actium was, of course, an epic showdown

0:06:560:06:58

between Antony and Cleopatra

0:06:580:07:00

on one side and Octavian on the other.

0:07:000:07:02

-Oh, she's got one.

-She's got the first one.

0:07:040:07:05

Now, hopefully that will unlock the whole thing.

0:07:050:07:09

Wait a minute, here comes Trevor the seagull, flapping around in her way.

0:07:090:07:14

'30 seconds remaining.'

0:07:140:07:16

Trevor really could not have picked a worse time to do this.

0:07:160:07:19

Bobbie has got a lot of work to do here, get out the way, Trev!

0:07:190:07:22

Antony and Cleopatra, they were like the Kanye and Kim of their day.

0:07:220:07:26

Yes, although Cleopatra wasn't just famous for her bottom.

0:07:260:07:29

That's Mark Antony's ship! That's cost two points! What a terrific

0:07:290:07:33

blow that is, that means she only needs two more to take this game.

0:07:330:07:36

-Oh, that's the second.

-It's running out of time here, Rattus, though.

0:07:360:07:40

She needs to be quick, she needs to get it and she needs to get it soon.

0:07:400:07:45

She's done it and there she is, Usain Bob!

0:07:450:07:49

Well played, Bobbie. Excellent work, help yourself to a Year Sphere.

0:07:490:07:53

Well, you certainly found your sea legs there, Bobbie.

0:07:530:07:57

On to Round Two and to find out what's next,

0:07:570:08:00

it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:08:000:08:01

It's the Measly Middle Ages.

0:08:030:08:06

And here are your all important Middle Ages topics.

0:08:060:08:09

The Lion,

0:08:090:08:10

Sport,

0:08:100:08:11

Cures,

0:08:110:08:13

and Sieges.

0:08:130:08:14

So, Ollie, it's your turn to pick first.

0:08:140:08:16

Sport, please.

0:08:160:08:17

Sport, that is a prop question.

0:08:170:08:20

# Prop question, prop question, prop question... #

0:08:200:08:23

And what a glorious prop it is.

0:08:230:08:26

Here's the question. Ready? During very cold winters,

0:08:260:08:29

what sport did Londoners play in the Middle Ages, with their bone

0:08:290:08:33

skates, was it...

0:08:330:08:34

A. Ice Hockey,

0:08:340:08:35

B. Ice Snooker,

0:08:350:08:37

C. Ice Jousting?

0:08:370:08:39

Dave, could I check if there's any rotten meat left on that bone?

0:08:390:08:43

Well, yes, I suppose you can yeah, is there?

0:08:430:08:45

-No, nothing.

-Can I carry on now?

-Please do.

0:08:450:08:48

Thank you, Rattus. So, is it A, B or C?

0:08:480:08:52

Interesting, Millie and Bobbie have agreed on C, Ollie thinks it's A.

0:08:520:08:57

I can tell you that the answer is C, Ice Jousting.

0:08:570:09:03

They'd skate at each other, using sticks like jousting poles.

0:09:030:09:07

Now there's a show I'd watch, celebrity jousting on ice!

0:09:070:09:12

I think I'd have to give that one a miss, if they asked me.

0:09:120:09:14

You'd have to, Dave, it's only for celebrities!

0:09:140:09:17

Ha-ha, ha-ha! Zing!

0:09:170:09:20

Zing?

0:09:210:09:23

Who's in there?

0:09:230:09:24

It's PooTube.

0:09:240:09:26

Congratulations, Millie and Bobbie, there's a point apiece there.

0:09:260:09:29

-Bobbie, it is your turn to pick a topic.

-Cures, please

0:09:290:09:32

Cures, lovely, let's hear it.

0:09:320:09:34

What was the Middle Ages cure for freckles on your skin?

0:09:340:09:37

Hare's blood mixed with what?

0:09:370:09:39

A. Swallow eyes,

0:09:390:09:41

B. Chicken wee,

0:09:410:09:43

C. Lark tongues?

0:09:430:09:45

Oh! Ho-ho! Swallow eyes, chicken wee, lark tongues on toast,

0:09:450:09:51

Mmmmm! Yum, yum, yum!

0:09:510:09:52

Really is revolting! Let's have a look at your answers.

0:09:540:09:57

Wow, everybody thinks it's B, I wonder if it is?

0:09:570:10:01

The answer is A. Hare's blood mixed with swallow eyes.

0:10:010:10:06

So, no points there for that question, I'm afraid,

0:10:060:10:08

Millie it's your turn to pick one.

0:10:080:10:10

-The Lion, please.

-Let's hear that question.

0:10:100:10:12

King James II of Scotland was famously killed by The Lion

0:10:120:10:17

but what was it?

0:10:170:10:18

A. Performing Lion,

0:10:180:10:20

B. A Cannon,

0:10:200:10:22

C. A knight with long blond hair?

0:10:220:10:24

Oh, this is a good one.

0:10:240:10:25

So, King James II of Scotland was famously killed by The Lion.

0:10:250:10:29

But what was it?

0:10:290:10:30

Was it A. A performing lion,

0:10:300:10:32

B. A cannon,

0:10:320:10:33

or C. A knight with long blond hair?

0:10:330:10:36

Show me now, please.

0:10:360:10:37

Millie thinks it's C. Ollie and Bobbie think it's A.

0:10:370:10:40

What is the answer?

0:10:400:10:42

The answer is B.

0:10:420:10:43

James II of Scotland was killed after a huge cannon,

0:10:430:10:46

known as The Lion, exploded and shattered his leg.

0:10:460:10:50

You might say the cannon cost him an arm and a leg!

0:10:500:10:53

No, it only cost him his leg.

0:10:530:10:55

All right, nit picker!

0:10:550:10:57

Cor, I have to work with this(!)

0:10:570:10:59

So do I!

0:10:590:11:00

OK, it's a very low-scoring round, isn't it, this?

0:11:000:11:03

There's one category left, it's called Sieges,

0:11:030:11:06

and it's a question from Rattus Rattus.

0:11:060:11:08

When the Normans laid siege to Palermo in Sicily in 1064,

0:11:080:11:13

there were venomous spiders. What would happen if one bit you?

0:11:130:11:18

A. You'd get terrible diarrhoea,

0:11:180:11:21

B. You'd get a nasty case of wind,

0:11:210:11:24

C. You'd projectile vomit?

0:11:240:11:27

All great answers, but which is it?

0:11:270:11:30

Which is it?

0:11:300:11:32

What could it be?

0:11:320:11:34

A, B, or C, show me now, please.

0:11:340:11:37

Millie thinks it's A, Ollie and Bobbie agreeing with C.

0:11:370:11:39

-what's the answer Rattus?

-The answer is...

0:11:390:11:42

B.

0:11:420:11:43

The spider bite would cause you to swell up, get a nasty

0:11:430:11:47

case of wind, and possibly even die.

0:11:470:11:50

PRRFFFFT!!

0:11:500:11:51

Ahh, I've been bitten! I've been bitten! I'm going to die!

0:11:510:11:56

Either that or you had rotten beans for lunch.

0:11:560:11:58

Oh, yeah, that'll be it.

0:11:580:12:00

So, Millie and Bobbie, it's a tie-breaker situation.

0:12:000:12:03

Beginning with the letter D...

0:12:050:12:07

complete the name given to the plague that spread over

0:12:070:12:10

Europe in the 1300s, the Black...

0:12:100:12:13

-Bobbie?

-Death.

0:12:130:12:15

Death is the correct answer. That means you can help yourself

0:12:150:12:18

to another Year Sphere, go for it.

0:12:180:12:20

What's going to be in this one, I wonder, Rattus.

0:12:230:12:25

OK, Bobbie, you are through to play the Middle Ages game but will

0:12:250:12:28

it be just you or will the others get to play too, let's find out.

0:12:280:12:32

It's an All Play Gory Game.

0:12:350:12:37

Right everyone, get down that time sewer. Lead them off, Bobbie.

0:12:370:12:41

You smell!

0:12:410:12:43

Did he say "You smell"? Very rude.

0:12:430:12:46

Oh, you're awfully good with that door, Dave. Yes, I tend to

0:12:460:12:50

think of Dave less of a presenter, more as a glorified door man.

0:12:500:12:54

Thank you, Rattus. In the Middle Ages,

0:12:540:12:56

if you wanted to go into a castle but the people in the castle

0:12:560:12:59

didn't want to let you in, you had two choices.

0:12:590:13:00

Give up or lay siege.

0:13:000:13:02

Yes, it's time to play...

0:13:020:13:05

'Savage Siege.'

0:13:050:13:07

You've got loads of stuff to fire in, rocks, rotten meat

0:13:070:13:10

and horse's heads.

0:13:100:13:11

The more accurate you are, the more likely you are to win.

0:13:110:13:14

The siege begins...now.

0:13:140:13:17

So, here we go then, with Savage Siege and the contestants have to

0:13:170:13:20

catapult several objects into baskets, in order to score points.

0:13:200:13:24

And of course, you can get involved at home too, on the Gory Games app.

0:13:260:13:30

-It's free

-It certainly is, Rattus.

0:13:300:13:32

Well, a hunk of rotten meat there for Bobbie.

0:13:320:13:35

Wow, look at that, Ollie scored

0:13:350:13:36

with a rock. A nice tactic, in my opinion. These rocks really do fly.

0:13:360:13:40

Bobbie's trying one out there too, oh, but she misses.

0:13:400:13:43

-Yes, it's tricky

-That's a point for Millie though.

0:13:430:13:46

Bobbie taking aim again, yes, this time she scores.

0:13:460:13:49

So, it's very even-steven here at the start.

0:13:490:13:52

Let's see what Ollie can do here. Oh, it's a miss,

0:13:520:13:55

Millie's trying her luck with some rotten meat.

0:13:550:13:57

Oh, oh, hold on a minute! She's got it in, but it's in Ollie's basket,

0:13:570:14:00

not hers, so that's not going to count for either of them.

0:14:000:14:03

Bad luck there.

0:14:030:14:05

'30 seconds remaining.'

0:14:050:14:07

So, Millie and Ollie are now joint leaders with two points each,

0:14:070:14:10

Bobbie just behind them with one, this is an incredibly close siege.

0:14:100:14:13

And, of course, during a siege, they'd fire in rotten meat

0:14:130:14:16

and bits of dead horse to spread disease in the castle.

0:14:160:14:20

Ahh, clever. So, Millie lining up a stone here.

0:14:200:14:23

Oh, she's done it!

0:14:230:14:24

Another one flies straight into the basket for her,

0:14:240:14:27

this is impressive stuff.

0:14:270:14:29

But Ollie means business too, look at this, he's got a horse's head,

0:14:290:14:32

can he do it?

0:14:320:14:33

NEIGHING

0:14:330:14:34

Yes, he can!

0:14:340:14:35

But it's not enough. Millie wins the game and she's rightly chuffed.

0:14:350:14:38

Welcome back, everybody. Yes, help yourself, Millie, help yourself.

0:14:400:14:45

How was that, Ollie? You had four in your basket

0:14:450:14:48

but one of them wasn't yours.

0:14:480:14:49

I just suddenly saw it appearing in there and I was like, who's that?

0:14:490:14:53

-That was you, was it, Millie?

-Yeah.

-That was very decent of you

0:14:530:14:55

but, of course, it doesn't score for either of you.

0:14:550:14:58

Here we go, it's Round Three and it's over to the Gory Grid

0:14:580:15:01

to find out what's next.

0:15:010:15:02

It's the Groovy Greeks.

0:15:040:15:06

Here are your four Greek topics.

0:15:060:15:09

Sparta,

0:15:090:15:10

Dolphins,

0:15:100:15:11

Tyrants,

0:15:110:15:12

and Doctors.

0:15:120:15:13

And Bobbie, it is your turn to lead us off this time.

0:15:130:15:16

-Doctors, please.

-Doctors.

0:15:160:15:19

True or False...

0:15:190:15:21

If ancient Greek Dr Menacretes of Syracuse cured a patient,

0:15:210:15:25

he would then sell them into slavery?

0:15:250:15:27

I can tell you that it's true or false!

0:15:270:15:30

Very helpful, as always(!) So, what do you think? Show me now.

0:15:300:15:33

Everybody thinks it's true.

0:15:350:15:37

What's the answer?

0:15:370:15:39

It's...

0:15:390:15:40

true!

0:15:400:15:41

He made patients sign an agreement before he treated them, stating

0:15:410:15:44

that if he cured them, he could sell them into slavery.

0:15:440:15:47

Good one, Doc.

0:15:470:15:49

Congratulations, everybody Everyone starts with a point which is

0:15:490:15:53

a great way to start the round.

0:15:530:15:55

Millie, your turn to pick a topic.

0:15:550:15:57

-Dolphins, please.

-Let's hear the question.

0:15:570:16:00

True or false, Dolphin was an ancient Greek delicacy.

0:16:000:16:04

Would you eat dolphin, Rattus?

0:16:040:16:06

Erm...if it falls into the category "anything", then yes.

0:16:060:16:09

Yes, yes, I would.

0:16:090:16:10

Yes, I think dolphin does fall into the category of "anything".

0:16:100:16:13

So, good for you.

0:16:130:16:14

True or false, everyone? Dolphin was an ancient Greek delicacy.

0:16:140:16:18

Show me now, please.

0:16:180:16:19

OK, the girls think it's false,

0:16:190:16:21

Ollie thinks it's true. What's the answer?

0:16:210:16:23

It's false, dolphins were seen as messengers from the gods.

0:16:230:16:27

To kill one was a crime punishable by death.

0:16:270:16:30

Oh, erm, on second thoughts, I would never, ever eat dolphin.

0:16:300:16:34

Yeah? Good rat. OK, well done, Millie, well done, Bobbie.

0:16:340:16:38

That's an extra point for both of you.

0:16:380:16:40

-Ollie, it's you to pick a topic.

-Erm...Sparta, please.

0:16:400:16:43

Let's hear the question on Sparta.

0:16:430:16:45

True or false, if Spartan babies were seen as weak, their parents

0:16:450:16:49

gave them away to be brought up as slaves?

0:16:490:16:51

"If Spartan babies were weak, their parents gave them away to be

0:16:510:16:55

"brought up as slaves." Is that true or is that false?

0:16:550:16:58

Show me now, please.

0:16:580:16:59

Hey, hey, hey, total agreement everybody thinks it's true, is it?

0:16:590:17:04

It's false. Weak babies were left on the mountainside to die.

0:17:040:17:08

I was a strong baby, obvs!

0:17:080:17:10

I think we all know who should have been left on a mountainside.

0:17:100:17:15

Of course, I mean Dave. Oh, did you hear that?

0:17:150:17:18

Bit harsh! No points to award there, I'm afraid, but one category

0:17:180:17:23

left in this round, it's Tyrants and it's a question from Rattus Rattus.

0:17:230:17:28

True or false? Greek Tyrant Cleisthenes,

0:17:280:17:31

wanted to take the city of Kirrhans and did

0:17:310:17:34

so by contaminating the water supply with laxatives.

0:17:340:17:38

Who'd have thought you'd do a poo-related question, Rattus?

0:17:380:17:41

So, what do you think? Is that true or is that false?

0:17:410:17:44

Everybody thinks it's true. Rattus, what's the answer?

0:17:440:17:48

The answer is...

0:17:480:17:49

it's true! He contaminated their water supply with laxatives

0:17:490:17:54

and he gave the whole city diarrhoea.

0:17:540:17:56

The inhabitants were so weakened, it was easy to take the city.

0:17:560:18:00

Although I'm not sure you'd still want to! Congratulations, everybody.

0:18:000:18:04

A point each. Millie and Bobbie, it's tie-breaker time once more.

0:18:040:18:09

Are you ready?

0:18:100:18:11

Beginning with the letter O, which sporting event was

0:18:110:18:14

created by the ancient Greeks in 776 BC.

0:18:140:18:18

Millie?

0:18:180:18:19

-Olympics?

-Correct, it is the Olympics.

0:18:190:18:22

Well done, you get to pick a Year Sphere, of course.

0:18:220:18:26

I let Dave do all these bits, it makes him feel useful.

0:18:260:18:29

Rattus, can you please concentrate on the show?

0:18:290:18:32

I am! My show, on PooTube!

0:18:320:18:35

So, Millie, as the winner of the Greek Quiz, you're through to play

0:18:370:18:40

the Greek Game, or will it be just you, or will the others get to

0:18:400:18:43

play too? Let's find out.

0:18:430:18:45

It's a single player brainy game.

0:18:480:18:50

So, off down the Time Sewer with you, Millie.

0:18:500:18:54

This still stinks.

0:18:540:18:55

It does, I'm afraid. The Greeks were a clever bunch

0:18:550:18:58

and invented early prototypes of loads of things we still use today.

0:18:580:19:02

It's time to play Geeky Greeks.

0:19:020:19:06

Eight everyday items. Unbelievably, five of them

0:19:060:19:09

were invented over 2,000 years ago by geeky Greeks,

0:19:090:19:12

your challenge is to work out which five.

0:19:120:19:14

Choose five items and move them to the columns,

0:19:140:19:17

then touch the Greek bust to find out how many you got right.

0:19:170:19:20

Keep trying different combinations until you get all of them right

0:19:200:19:23

and your time starts...now.

0:19:230:19:25

Well, off she goes and there's no messing.

0:19:270:19:30

She's gone for the tennis racquet and the draughts.

0:19:300:19:35

-There's the toothpaste.

-There's the toothpaste.

0:19:350:19:38

There's the lighthouse.

0:19:380:19:40

She's making quick decisions here which I think is going to

0:19:400:19:42

count in her favour eventually.

0:19:420:19:45

That's the anchor.

0:19:450:19:46

'You have three correct.'

0:19:460:19:49

She's got three right.

0:19:490:19:50

So, the tennis racquet comes off I have a feeling that's a good move,

0:19:500:19:53

Rattus, and on goes a severed arm.

0:19:530:19:54

Is that a wrist watch on there though?

0:19:540:19:56

'You have three correct.'

0:19:560:19:58

It's the wrist watch we're... we're looking at there not the arm,

0:19:580:20:01

the arm definitely wasn't invented by the Greeks.

0:20:010:20:03

'You have three correct.'

0:20:030:20:06

Oh! Down to three right.

0:20:060:20:08

Yeah, oh dear. Now, this could be bad.

0:20:080:20:12

'You have two correct.'

0:20:120:20:14

Two right, OK, so the light house is going back on,

0:20:140:20:16

the toothpaste is coming off, that should get it back up to three.

0:20:160:20:19

Oh, hello, what's she doing with the toothpaste?

0:20:190:20:21

She's popping it back on.

0:20:210:20:22

'You have two correct.'

0:20:220:20:24

She really needs to be making one change at a time here,

0:20:240:20:27

that's the best strategy.

0:20:270:20:29

'You have two correct.'

0:20:290:20:31

That's right

0:20:310:20:32

The wrist watch has come off.

0:20:320:20:34

The game of draughts has gone back on.

0:20:340:20:36

'You have three correct.'

0:20:360:20:37

And that has worked well for her.

0:20:370:20:41

'30 seconds remaining.'

0:20:410:20:44

There goes the baby's rattle.

0:20:440:20:45

'You have four correct.'

0:20:450:20:47

She's got four right. There's only one of these now, Rattus,

0:20:470:20:50

that has to come off.

0:20:500:20:51

She's taking the syringe.

0:20:510:20:54

The anchor goes back on.

0:20:540:20:55

'You have four correct.'

0:20:550:20:56

Still four, so we know that the syringe can go back on.

0:20:560:20:59

she's getting the tactics spot on now, Rattus.

0:20:590:21:02

The lighthouse has gone, how many has she got?

0:21:020:21:04

'You have four correct.'

0:21:040:21:05

So, we know that the lighthouse goes back on.

0:21:050:21:07

She knows what she's doing here. The rattle's come off.

0:21:070:21:09

You have four correct.

0:21:090:21:11

AIR HORN

0:21:110:21:13

She's run out of time. She knew what she was doing

0:21:130:21:16

but simply didn't have the time left.

0:21:160:21:19

Oh, Millie, bad luck, bad luck, so close.

0:21:190:21:23

You know which one was wrong, don't you?

0:21:230:21:25

It was toothpaste. So the ancient Greeks didn't invent tennis

0:21:250:21:29

or wrist watches.

0:21:290:21:30

Both of those were invented by the Tudors. Or toothpaste,

0:21:300:21:33

which was an Egyptian invention.

0:21:330:21:35

It's the final round

0:21:350:21:37

so it's over to the Gory Grid to find out what we've got.

0:21:370:21:40

It's the Vile Victorians. Good day.

0:21:410:21:44

Vile Victorians and it's straight to our All Play Scary End Game.

0:21:440:21:50

And this one is dead funny.

0:21:500:21:52

Do you know, watching Dave try to do a joke,

0:21:530:21:55

is like watching a dog try to juggle.

0:21:550:21:57

Leave it! I've had about enough of that camera.

0:21:570:22:00

Everyone, down the Time Sewer come on. Lead us off, Bobbie.

0:22:000:22:04

Oh!

0:22:040:22:05

I know. It's time to play...

0:22:050:22:09

When Queen Victoria was only a child, grave robbing was common.

0:22:110:22:15

Bodies were dug up and sold to surgeons.

0:22:150:22:17

That stinks! No, literally!

0:22:170:22:20

It does! You have to steal three corpses

0:22:200:22:23

and get them to the surgeon's table.

0:22:230:22:25

You'll need the key to the cemetery gates.

0:22:250:22:27

Remember, a whistle means the police are coming.

0:22:270:22:29

A second whistle means it's all clear. The first person to

0:22:290:22:32

get their dodgy money is the champ.

0:22:320:22:34

Ready...

0:22:340:22:37

And they're off! Each grabbing a body without hesitation.

0:22:370:22:40

Now then, look at that technique. That is one of the greatest

0:22:400:22:44

techniques I've ever seen on this game.

0:22:440:22:46

Bobbie, rather than pushing or pulling, went through

0:22:460:22:49

the railings with the corpse at the same time.

0:22:490:22:51

Dave, it's nice to see a game that's

0:22:510:22:53

based around one of my favourite hobbies.

0:22:530:22:56

I don't even want to know what you mean by that!

0:22:560:22:59

Can she get the key out and maintain her advantage over the other two?

0:22:590:23:02

And Bobbie's through. That's good, Bobbie's through here.

0:23:050:23:08

And the first corpse is being delivered.

0:23:080:23:11

Spending a lot of time rearranging that corpse, making sure it's

0:23:110:23:13

comfortable. The corpse is dead.

0:23:130:23:15

There's no point making it comfortable.

0:23:150:23:17

Thing is, Rattus, surgeons did need corpses to practise on.

0:23:170:23:21

That's right, Dave, otherwise everyone they operated on

0:23:210:23:24

became, well...another corpse!

0:23:240:23:26

True. Through the railings she goes, to pick up her second cadaver.

0:23:260:23:30

And is she going to use that technique again?

0:23:310:23:34

Well, she led through that time

0:23:340:23:36

and now it's become the old pull through technique.

0:23:360:23:39

Oh! It's all become a little bit Strictly Come Dancing.

0:23:390:23:42

It has, but with slightly more arm dislocation and slightly less music.

0:23:420:23:48

Bobbie has a very workman-like approach. She's obviously

0:23:480:23:51

stolen a body or two in her time, but what on earth is going on here?

0:23:510:23:54

What is Millie actually doing here, Rattus? She seems to be taking

0:23:540:23:57

her trolley all the way to the surgeon's table.

0:23:570:24:00

WHISTLE

0:24:000:24:01

Here comes the copper...they've got to get back behind those gravestones

0:24:010:24:06

and stay still.

0:24:060:24:07

Now, this officer of the law, this pillar, how's his

0:24:070:24:11

eyesight today? How's your eyesight, fella? He's having a cursory look

0:24:110:24:15

at the topiary. He's got his hands behind his back. At least they're

0:24:150:24:18

not in his pockets but he is failing to spot corpses

0:24:180:24:21

littering the ground.

0:24:210:24:23

That policeman really hasn't got a clue, has he?

0:24:230:24:26

Is that moustache obscuring his vision?

0:24:260:24:27

He's more interested in the shrubbery!

0:24:270:24:29

WHISTLE

0:24:290:24:30

And they're ready to go again.

0:24:300:24:32

And they're haring back to the positions they were in.

0:24:320:24:35

Can Millie come back? I'm not so sure she can.

0:24:350:24:38

That's her first body, after all.

0:24:380:24:39

And Ollie's delivering corpse number two now.

0:24:390:24:42

But Bobbie has her final cadaver well in hand.

0:24:420:24:45

Dave, digging up corpses in the night for cash, it's a dirty job

0:24:450:24:49

but someone's got to do it.

0:24:490:24:51

Well, they haven't really, Rattus.

0:24:510:24:53

There goes Bobbie. She's taking her last one.

0:24:530:24:56

Surely there's not much can stop her now. Not even an officer of the law.

0:24:560:25:01

Ollie's in sight.

0:25:010:25:03

He's within reach but she's just got to take her bag of loot

0:25:030:25:06

and make it down the other end.

0:25:060:25:07

All she's got to do is get through the railings -

0:25:070:25:09

she's done it many times before.

0:25:090:25:12

Let's see the Usain Bob. There it is.

0:25:120:25:16

Well played, everybody. Well done, Bobbie, help yourself to

0:25:160:25:19

a Year Sphere.

0:25:190:25:21

Very, very good performance.

0:25:210:25:23

Oh, what's going to be in there?

0:25:230:25:24

We'll find out any minute now.

0:25:240:25:27

Hey, where's my PooTube camera?

0:25:270:25:29

This one here?

0:25:290:25:31

I think someone may have chucked it down the PooTube.

0:25:310:25:34

I think someone will have been caught on camera!

0:25:340:25:37

I think someone doesn't care!

0:25:370:25:39

Ahhh. Now it's time to count up those Year Spheres.

0:25:410:25:44

And remember, AD years are added and BC years are subtracted.

0:25:440:25:49

Good luck, everybody. OK, Millie, let's have a look at that first one.

0:25:490:25:53

1431 AD. King Henry VI of England crowned King of France that year.

0:25:550:26:00

It's a good start. Let's have a look at the second one.

0:26:000:26:03

1865 AD. Lewis Carroll published Alice's Adventures In Wonderland

0:26:030:26:09

that year. Well, Millie, you have just made things very,

0:26:090:26:13

very interesting.

0:26:130:26:14

3296 points.

0:26:140:26:18

Very impressive.

0:26:180:26:20

Ollie, what it does mean, of course, is that your zero is not going

0:26:200:26:23

to be enough for today. Bad luck.

0:26:230:26:25

But Bobbie, it means you've got

0:26:250:26:27

quite a target to hit. Let's have a look at this first one, please?

0:26:270:26:31

871 AD. Alfred the Great became King of Wessex

0:26:310:26:34

and fought the Vikings that year.

0:26:340:26:36

Let's have a look at the second one?

0:26:360:26:38

1903 AD.

0:26:380:26:41

The Wright brothers invented the first successful airplane.

0:26:410:26:44

The third one, please.

0:26:440:26:46

1170 AD. This is very close.

0:26:460:26:49

Thomas Beckett murdered at Canterbury Cathedral that year.

0:26:490:26:52

It's all on the turn of this 4th one. Let's have a look at it.

0:26:520:26:56

1917 AD. The Russian Revolution started that year.

0:26:560:27:01

So, in first place, with 5,861 points, it's Bobbie.

0:27:010:27:06

Well done, Bobbie.

0:27:060:27:08

Your reward, I'm afraid to say,

0:27:080:27:10

is to receive something that Rattus has dragged from the feted

0:27:100:27:13

depths of the Time Sewer. I dread to ask. What have you got, Rattus?

0:27:130:27:16

The Gold of the Middle Ages' alchemist.

0:27:160:27:20

Really? Gold?

0:27:200:27:22

Well, he spent eight years trying to turn into gold. It's actually some

0:27:220:27:25

chicken eggs mixed with horse poo.

0:27:250:27:27

Of course it is! Delightful. Well, there it is, for all your hard work.

0:27:270:27:32

You get some eggs mixed in with horse poo.

0:27:320:27:35

-I can only apologise, Bobbie.

-Thank you.

0:27:350:27:37

For our runners up, I'm afraid it's not much better, it's a crawl home

0:27:370:27:41

through the Time Sewer. Off you go, the pair of you, come on.

0:27:410:27:44

-Here we go!

-Bring on the gunge!

0:27:440:27:47

That's the spirit.

0:27:470:27:50

Excellent work.

0:27:500:27:52

And don't forget, you can play along next time

0:27:520:27:55

if you download the Gory Games app at the CBBC website.

0:27:550:27:58

This is so gooey!

0:27:580:28:00

I've been Dave Lamb.

0:28:000:28:01

I've been Rattus.

0:28:010:28:03

You've been watching Gory Games.

0:28:030:28:05

-Or the Rattus channel on PooTube.

-Goodbye.
