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 > 0:00:10# If you're easily scared And don't laugh at poo
0:00:10 > 0:00:14# You better turn off This show ain't for you
0:00:14 > 0:00:18# Still watching? Then let's test your brains
0:00:18 > 0:00:21# With Horrible Histories Gory Games
0:00:21 > 0:00:24# Horrible Histories Gory Games. #
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Hello, and welcome to Gory Games with me, Dave Lamb,
0:00:27 > 0:00:28and my assistant Rattus Rattus.
0:00:28 > 0:00:31The talking rat and the talking Lamb.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34You get to test your knowledge of Horrible Histories
0:00:34 > 0:00:36with quirky quizzes and gory games.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38So, let's meet our Horrible Historians.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40- Hi, I'm Ashley.- Hi, Ashley.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42- Hi, I'm Rowan.- Hello, Rowan.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44- Hi, I'm Zeke.- Hi, Zeke.- Hi.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Before we get going, there's just time for a little warm-up game
0:00:47 > 0:00:49I like to call "Doc Doc".
0:00:49 > 0:00:51- "Doc Doc"?- Who's there?
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Just get on with it.
0:00:53 > 0:00:54HE LAUGHS
0:00:54 > 0:00:56The ancient Greek doctor, Hippocrates,
0:00:56 > 0:00:59had a very scientific approach to medicine.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02He invented the technique of testing samples from patients
0:01:02 > 0:01:06so we've taken samples from three sick patients.
0:01:06 > 0:01:07The samples are -
0:01:07 > 0:01:09snot, wee and earwax.
0:01:09 > 0:01:10Oh, lovely.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14And all you have to do is work out what they're suffering from.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16And just how are they supposed to test them?
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- Just like Hippocrates did.- OK.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21- You're going to taste them.- Ew.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Just give them a taste and tell us what the patient is suffering from.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27No, no, please do not do that, OK? Thank you.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Do you not understand the word "unhygienic"?
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- No, I'm a rat. - Let's just get on with the show.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39Mmmm, this earwax is quite chewy.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40Urgh.
0:01:42 > 0:01:47Right. Ashley, Rowan and Zeke. You are playing to win Year Spheres.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Each Year Sphere contains a historical date
0:01:50 > 0:01:53and at the end of the show your Year Sphere dates will be added up,
0:01:53 > 0:01:55with AD dates being added to your total
0:01:55 > 0:01:58and BC dates being subtracted from it.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01If these were your Year Spheres, your total would be... Rattus?
0:02:01 > 0:02:04I can't do maths for medical reasons.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07- Medical reasons?- Yes. Maths could make my brain explode.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11735 is the answer.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15The person with the highest year count will win today's star prize.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- Believe you me - it's brilliant. - Is it?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21- Yeah, yeah.- I sincerely doubt it.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25To find out what this round's about, it's over to the Gory Grid.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28It's the Gorgeous Georgians.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30Your four Georgian topics are -
0:02:35 > 0:02:39Ashley, it's your turn to pick first in this round. Pick a topic, please.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41- George III.- George III.
0:02:41 > 0:02:46When King George III became ill, he started doing odd things.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Which of these did he supposedly do?
0:02:49 > 0:02:51A - claim to be King of the Moon,
0:02:51 > 0:02:53B - try and grow a beef tree,
0:02:53 > 0:02:58or C - wear his shoes on his hands and his gloves on his feet.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01So, is it A, B or C? Let's see your answers now, please.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04There we go. Three B's.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06You're all in total agreement.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Let's see if you're right.
0:03:08 > 0:03:09The answer is B.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13He planted some beef, thinking it would grow into a beef tree.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16I'm no expert on farming, but I don't think that's how it's done.
0:03:16 > 0:03:17No, no, no.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21That is not how it's done, but it's a very good start from all of you.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23You're off the mark with a point apiece.
0:03:23 > 0:03:28- Rowan, it is your turn. Pick a topic for us, please.- Crime.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30The question is -
0:03:41 > 0:03:44A's from Ashley and Rowan, a C from Zeke.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Let's see who's right.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48The answer is -
0:03:50 > 0:03:52It had recently been claimed for Britain
0:03:52 > 0:03:55by our Georgian explorer, Captain Cook.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Well done, Zeke. Excellent work. You've forged into the lead.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Still plenty of time in this round.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Don't panic, everyone. Don't panic.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- Zeke, it's your turn. - George II.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Where did King George II die?
0:04:09 > 0:04:11A - in the middle of a banquet,
0:04:11 > 0:04:13B - while riding his horse,
0:04:13 > 0:04:15or C - on the toilet.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Well, the boys going for A.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Rowan going for C.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23The answer is C. He died on the toilet.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24HE LAUGHS
0:04:24 > 0:04:26No, really, I shouldn't laugh. It's not...
0:04:26 > 0:04:27No, no, no, no.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28THEY LAUGH
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- He died on the toilet. - He died on the toilet.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32That's not funny.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36RATTUS LAUGHS
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Sorry, I'm a professional at this.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40The final question in this round
0:04:40 > 0:04:41is on Cures and it's a question
0:04:41 > 0:04:45- from Rattus Rattus.- Thank you, Dave.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49A Georgian cure for being bitten by an adder,
0:04:49 > 0:04:53was to put what over the bite wound?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Was it A - warm chicken guts?
0:04:56 > 0:05:00B - the grease from a badger?
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Or C - a cowpat?
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Well, look at that.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Rowan and Zeke going for A. Ashley out on his own with B.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11- Rattus, put us out of our misery, what's the answer?- A.- Yay!
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Georgian's would kill a chicken
0:05:14 > 0:05:16and put its warm guts over the snake bite.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18That's utter nonsense, isn't it?
0:05:18 > 0:05:22Although warm chicken guts are a very good cure for hunger.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- Urgh.- Yes, one word - yuck.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26One word - yummy.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Two words - bad taste.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Two words - delicious taste.
0:05:30 > 0:05:31Three words - let's stop this.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33- Two letters - OK.- Good.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35That is the end of the round,
0:05:35 > 0:05:38and what we see from our abacus of score is that
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Zeke and Rowan have tied it on three points each.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Ashley, for now, you're history.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45The other two of you, put your fingers on the buzzer
0:05:45 > 0:05:49because we're about to have the first buzzer question.
0:05:49 > 0:05:50Beginning with the letter G,
0:05:50 > 0:05:53what is the name of the head-chopping device
0:05:53 > 0:05:56used to execute posh people in the French Revolution?
0:05:56 > 0:05:59- Zeke.- Guillotine. - Is correct. You've won the quiz.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Time to choose a Year Sphere.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03You better hope it doesn't contain a Stone Age date
0:06:03 > 0:06:05which could be worth a million minus points.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Push, push, push, push. Ah!
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Zeke, come and pick your Year Sphere.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- Yeah.- Any one you like.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14- That one? You sure?- Sure.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Okey-cokey. Push, push, push...
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Winning the quiz means that Zeke is through
0:06:19 > 0:06:21to play the Georgian game.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24But will he be alone or will everyone get to play?
0:06:24 > 0:06:25Let's find out.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31It's a single player silly game.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35So, Zeke, it's off down the Time Sewer with you.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Go on, fellow. It stinks, by the way.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39- Aw, that does stink, as well. - I told you.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40He's gone.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46It's the 21st of October 1805,
0:06:46 > 0:06:49and Lord Nelson has just sent a signal from his flagship saying,
0:06:49 > 0:06:52"England expects that every man will do his duty."
0:06:52 > 0:06:53But will you do yours?
0:06:53 > 0:06:55It's time to play -
0:06:57 > 0:06:59You are a British Navy gunner.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Your mission - to load, aim and fire your cannon at the enemy ships.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05You score a point for every enemy ship you shoot
0:07:05 > 0:07:08and lose a point for every British ship you hit.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Score six points in the time limit to win your Year Sphere.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13And battle begins now!
0:07:13 > 0:07:15BUZZER
0:07:15 > 0:07:18So, here comes Zeke to try his hand at The Battle Of Trafalgar.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20Remember, that platform he's on
0:07:20 > 0:07:23is going to wobble around as if it's a ship at sea.
0:07:23 > 0:07:24He's off already.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28He's off already and that's one Spanish galleon taken out.
0:07:28 > 0:07:29He needs six to win the Year Sphere.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33Six and no misses against the British ship there.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35That would be a terrible mistake.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37We don't want to see any friendly fire.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40But we like to see the French getting sunk. In this game.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42So, he loads up the cannon ball.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Are they cannon balls?- Yes.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47I ate two of them this morning thinking they were doughnuts.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Yeah, that must have challenged your teeth slightly, did it?
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Not answering me.
0:07:53 > 0:07:54Broken teeth. Three down.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Just have to mention the seagulls getting involved here, Rattus.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00That seagull is really going to get hurt, isn't he?
0:08:00 > 0:08:02It's all right, he's a stunt seagull, Dave.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05As long as he's properly trained, it's fine.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08There's another cannon ball going in. He's doing quite well here.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11It's getting very close. He needs one more to do it.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15You hear lots of stories about rats leaving sinking ships. Is that fair?
0:08:15 > 0:08:19Absolutely. Any rat with half a brain will leave a sinking ship.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22And, in fact, the rule of thumb is if you see a load of rats in the sea,
0:08:22 > 0:08:24jump in and swim with them.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27If you can gather enough of them together,
0:08:27 > 0:08:28you can build a raft.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Fascinating stuff, Rattus. There it is! Zeke has done it.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Welcome back, Zeke. Collect yourself a Year Sphere.
0:08:35 > 0:08:36Oooh, yay!
0:08:36 > 0:08:41During the Battle of Trafalgar, the British lost 1,666 men
0:08:41 > 0:08:45compared to the French and Spanish navies who lost nearly 14,000.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49- How many more is that, Rattus? - Oh, hold on. I've written it down.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- 735.- Is the right answer...
0:08:51 > 0:08:54- Get in!- ..to the wrong question.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57That's the answer to the Year Sphere sum from the top of the show.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Anyway, Trafalgar was a British military triumph.
0:09:00 > 0:09:01734?
0:09:01 > 0:09:02Moving on.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05It's time now for us to find out what's up next,
0:09:05 > 0:09:06so let's go over to the Gory Grid.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09It's the Terrible Tudors.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Here are your all-important Tudor topics.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Rowan, it's your turn to pick first this time.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21- Wives.- Wives.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26I agreed to marry Anne of Cleves after being shown a picture of her.
0:09:26 > 0:09:27When I actually met her,
0:09:27 > 0:09:30she turned out to be far uglier than the picture.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33So, what was my nickname for Anne of Cleves?
0:09:43 > 0:09:44Total agreement.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47B's across the board. Let's find out if you're right.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50The answer is B - the Flanders mare.
0:09:50 > 0:09:51As in a horse.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55Because she looked like a horse. Ha ha ha! Brilliant!
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Yeah, why the long face?
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Cos you look like a horse.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03So, that's a point apiece. Zeke, your turn to pick a topic.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Elizabeth.- Elizabeth.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10My daughter Elizabeth I had a terrible temper.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12No idea who she got it from.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15What did she once throw at Sir Francis Walsingham's head?
0:10:22 > 0:10:23The boys agreeing with B.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Rowan going for C. Let's find out who's right.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28The answer is B.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30She threw a slipper at him.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33Hit him, too. That's my girl!
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Brilliant.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37The boys edging slightly ahead.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Still two questions left in this round, though.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Ashley, your turn to choose a topic.
0:10:42 > 0:10:43I'd like Plays, please.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46See what you make of this one.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03The boys agreeing again on C. Rowan, out on her own with A.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Let's find out what the answer is.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08The answer is C.
0:11:08 > 0:11:12The female parts in Shakespeare's plays were played by teenage boys.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14And one of our boys is going to win a Year Sphere
0:11:14 > 0:11:16at the end of this round. Which will it be?
0:11:16 > 0:11:18One topic left in this round.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21That is Cures and it is a question from Rattus Rattus.
0:11:21 > 0:11:26Which of these was not a Tudor cure for baldness?
0:11:26 > 0:11:29A - smearing the head with horse droppings,
0:11:29 > 0:11:33B - washing the head with the juice of beetles,
0:11:33 > 0:11:37or C - smearing the head with the grease of a fox.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43A complete spread of answers. All gone for different things.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Rattus, who is right?
0:11:45 > 0:11:48A - smearing their head with horse droppings.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51That was not a Tudor baldness cure.
0:11:51 > 0:11:52Oh, by the way,
0:11:52 > 0:11:56beetle juice mixed with fox grease makes a delicious pudding.
0:11:56 > 0:11:57- Urgh.- Uh.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Unnecessary, Rattus. That's the end of the round.
0:12:00 > 0:12:05Ashley and Zeke, you have tied with three points apiece.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Rowan, you're history for now, I'm afraid.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10But the other two, fingers on buzzers.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Beginning with the letter D,
0:12:12 > 0:12:14what is the surname of the famous Tudor sailor
0:12:14 > 0:12:17who defeated the Spanish Armada?
0:12:17 > 0:12:19- Zeke.- I think it's Drake.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22It is Drake. Congratulations, Zeke.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Well done, you've won yourself another Year Sphere.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Pop round and collect it for me.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30As the quiz winner, you're also through to play the Tudor game,
0:12:30 > 0:12:34but will it be just you or will the others play too?
0:12:34 > 0:12:35Let's find out.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41It's a single player brainy game.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44I'm sorry, Ashley, your time will come. So will yours, Rowan.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Let's get back down that Time Sewer. You know the way.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Seven famous Tudor-types,
0:12:52 > 0:12:55five of them were beheaded on Henry's orders.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Only two died of natural causes.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00And no, an axe didn't count as a natural cause.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Even during Henry's reign.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04It's time to play -
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Your challenge - to work out which five were beheaded.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Choose five names and move them to the beheaded board.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Then touch the severed Tudor head to find out how many you've got right.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18Keep trying new combinations until you've got all five.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20But you're against the clock.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23And your time starts now.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25BUZZER
0:13:25 > 0:13:28So, here goes Zeke on the Axe Factor.
0:13:28 > 0:13:29What he has to do here, Rattus,
0:13:29 > 0:13:32is work out which five of these people
0:13:32 > 0:13:35were executed by Henry VIII.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39And Zeke clearly believes that Sir Thomas Moore and Anne Boleyn were.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43Well, it's an encouraging start. He's got two names up there already.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47And he's weighing up his options, here. I like to see this.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51I like to see a player thoroughly think through their tactics
0:13:51 > 0:13:53before acting.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55It pays dividends. Jane Boleyn.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59The whole Boleyn family going up there by the look of it, Rattus.
0:13:59 > 0:14:03Henry VIII did not like those Boleyns. Katherine Howard.
0:14:03 > 0:14:04This actually looks good to me.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- You've all five right! - The severed head confirms it.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11Zeke has five out of five, and he has won a Year Sphere.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15Zeke, congratulations. Pick another Year Sphere.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Oooh.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19So, Anne Boleyn, Henry's wife, was famously beheaded.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23And George Boleyn, Anne's brother, got the chop, too.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24As did Jane Boleyn, his wife.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27Looks like Henry was trying to collect the Boleyn set.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30It was probably Henry's favourite game - Unhappy Families.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32HE LAUGHS
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Unhappy Fam... You're funny.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38So, it's over to the Gory Grid to find out what's up next.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41It's the Measly Middle-Agers.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Here are the Middle-Agers topics.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51- So, Zeke, it's your turn to pick first this time.- Death.- Death.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54True or false.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56After Henry II heard that Thomas Becket,
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Archbishop of Canterbury, had been murdered,
0:14:59 > 0:15:01he threw a massive party.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05OK, Ashley and Rowan going for true.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08Zeke out on his own with false.
0:15:08 > 0:15:09Let's find out the answer.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11False.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14Henry felt really guilty about Becket's death
0:15:14 > 0:15:16and walked all the way to Canterbury
0:15:16 > 0:15:19where he was ceremoniously whipped by monks.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22So, Zeke, off to another flying start.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24Ashley, your turn to pick a topic.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26- Er, Meal Time.- Meal Time.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28True or false.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31According to our Middle Ages table manners,
0:15:31 > 0:15:34it was OK to spit onto the table at meal times.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38The boys going for true. Rowan going for false.
0:15:38 > 0:15:39Let's hear what the answer is.
0:15:39 > 0:15:44It's false. It was not OK. It's quite disgusting.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48Although it was OK to spit onto the floor at meal times. Obviously.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52So, Rowan and Zeke, you have a point apiece.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Still time to catch up, Ashley. Don't panic.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- And Rowan, it's your turn to pick a topic.- Clothes.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00That is a question from Rattus Rattus.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01Well, thank you.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03True or false.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07In castles, clothes were kept in the toilet.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Well, Ashley and Rowan going for true.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Zeke on his own with false.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15What's the answer, Rattus?
0:16:15 > 0:16:19It's true. The castle toilet was called the garderobe.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22Because it guarded robes.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Apparently the smell of poo and wee kept the cloth-eating moths away.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Though on the minor side, your clothes stank of poo and wee.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32- No, it's not perfect. - No, it's not ideal.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34They've not thought that through.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37OK, final topic of this round is Tournaments.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40True or false.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Famous knight Sir William Marshall once failed to accept
0:16:44 > 0:16:47one of his jousting prizes because his helmet was stuck on his head.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Ashley and Rowan again agreeing on true.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Zeke out on his own with false.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55What's the actual answer, please?
0:16:55 > 0:16:56It's true.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59His helmet had been dented in the tournament
0:16:59 > 0:17:01and he was at the blacksmiths having it prised off.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03What he really needed was a can-opener.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06HE LAUGHS
0:17:06 > 0:17:07He loves it.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09That means that Rowan, at the end of that round,
0:17:09 > 0:17:12you've won your first Year Sphere. Please collect it.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17Rowan, you're through to play the Measly Middle-Agers game
0:17:17 > 0:17:21but will you be playing alone or will everyone get to play?
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Ashley is actually praying. He wants to play.
0:17:23 > 0:17:24Let's find out if he will.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30It's an all play gory game.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34Right, off down the Time Sewer with the lot of you. Lead the way, Zeke.
0:17:36 > 0:17:37Down you go, Rowan.
0:17:37 > 0:17:42- Urgh, it still stinks in here.- Urgh, this is manky.- This is disgusting.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45William the Conqueror's funeral didn't exactly go according to plan.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49His servants stole his treasure and the church burned down.
0:17:49 > 0:17:50It's time to play -
0:17:52 > 0:17:54You are William's servants
0:17:54 > 0:17:57and your challenge is to take his treasure and put it in your chest.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59The treasure is colour-coded,
0:17:59 > 0:18:01and you must only take your own loot.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Whoever collects the most wins the Year Sphere.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06You'd better be quick cos the church will burn down.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Your time starts now.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10BUZZER
0:18:10 > 0:18:14So, Ashley, Rowan, Zeke. All about to attempt Yuckeroo.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18Remember, they have to get their own colour-coded treasure
0:18:18 > 0:18:19into their own chests.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23That is the point. Now, Ashley's made a very good start, there.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26And Zeke has now levelled. It's one apiece.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30Actually, the boy is showing a real aptitude for thieving, here.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Well, I'm just thinking anyone who's just tuned in
0:18:32 > 0:18:34might think they're watching
0:18:34 > 0:18:36the weirdest Crimewatch reconstruction.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38That's a very good point.
0:18:38 > 0:18:39We're not Crimewatch.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43We might be on Crimewatch soon if we keep this kind of thing up.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Actually, I really want to point out
0:18:45 > 0:18:47that we are not encouraging thieving.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Even from a dead tyrant, it's bang out of order. Don't do it.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52I forgot to mention...
0:18:52 > 0:18:53EXPLOSION
0:18:53 > 0:18:54It's too late now.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57William the Conqueror's guts are going to explode.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59I should've mentioned that.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Bad Rattus for not reminding me. The boys - oblivious to it.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06They carry on with their thieving but that's affected Rowan.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08She doesn't want to go near the coffin.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11She doesn't want to get covered in blood and guts and why should she?
0:19:11 > 0:19:13BELL
0:19:13 > 0:19:1430 seconds remaining.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18Thank you. 30 seconds remaining. It's neck and neck for the boys.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Rowan doesn't look like she's going to take much more treasure.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24Although she's got a bit at the end that she's comfortable with.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28She's working her way feverishly, she's got it,
0:19:28 > 0:19:32but the building's now on fire. They've got to get out of there.
0:19:32 > 0:19:33This game is nearly over.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37They need to get out of there quickly and finish the job.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39BUZZER
0:19:39 > 0:19:40The game is over.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44That piece won't count from Zeke. The boys have finished all square.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Welcome back, Gory Gamers. Back behind your podiums.
0:19:47 > 0:19:48Rowan, you had three pieces.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52One of which was the wrong colour, so you actually got two points.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Ashley and Zeke, you got four each.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57So, Ashley, help yourself to a Year Sphere.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01Zeke, help yourself to a Year Sphere.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06William's fat body really did explode at his funeral.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08His burial was too long after his death
0:20:08 > 0:20:10and his body had bloated due to the warm weather.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12Must have been disgusting.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15I take it you've never seen a rotten horse carcass explode.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17That's even more brilliant!
0:20:17 > 0:20:21In many ways, we are so very different, aren't we, Rattus?
0:20:21 > 0:20:23We are.
0:20:23 > 0:20:24Time for the final round.
0:20:24 > 0:20:28Over to the Gory Grid one last time to find out who we've got.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31It's the Vile Victorians. Good day.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Ah, well, no quirky quiz in our final round.
0:20:34 > 0:20:35It's straight to our all play game
0:20:35 > 0:20:38and what a scary one we've got for you.
0:20:38 > 0:20:42Everybody, get back down that Time Sewer.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43Well done, Zeke.
0:20:44 > 0:20:45There we go.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Cheerio, Ashley.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Aw, it stinks. This is manky.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54When Queen Victoria was no more than a child,
0:20:54 > 0:20:56grave robbing was a common crime.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58The bodies were sold to surgeons
0:20:58 > 0:21:00who wanted to learn more about the human body.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02It's time to play -
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Your Vile Victorian challenge
0:21:09 > 0:21:11is to steal three bodies from the graveyard.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Get them through the railings onto the carts,
0:21:13 > 0:21:15find the key to the cemetery gate,
0:21:15 > 0:21:18and get them to the surgeon's table. If you hear this noise -
0:21:18 > 0:21:20WHISTLE
0:21:20 > 0:21:22then you must rush back to the cemetery and hide
0:21:22 > 0:21:24so the policeman doesn't spot you.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26A second whistle means you can go again.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29The first person to get all their bodies to the surgeon's table
0:21:29 > 0:21:32and grab their dodgy money is the winner.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Three, two, one.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36BUZZER
0:21:36 > 0:21:39So, here we go with Victorian Grave Robbers.
0:21:39 > 0:21:40Through the railings.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42And Zeke's going for the
0:21:42 > 0:21:45"hold it round the back and yank it" technique.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49It's almost like he's trying to do the Heimlich manoeuvre, there, Dave.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Yeah, it's a bit late for that.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54I don't think that corpse has any chance of coming back to life.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Rowan, unfortunately, is stuck here.
0:21:56 > 0:22:01Now, oh, well done. Well done, Rowan. Now, onto the wobbly trolley.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05Onto the wobbly trolley and Ashley has made it to the railings.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07He's got to unlock that gate.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10And there he goes. Ooh, he's like a safecracker, isn't he?
0:22:10 > 0:22:13He just needs to take the body off the trolley,
0:22:13 > 0:22:15and get it through that gate.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Oh, dear me. He thinks he's got to wheel the trolley in.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21Well, you know, he's not going to get penalised for that.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24I have to say that that trolley's not hampered him.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26- Not yet.- He's off. - He's off and running.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29He's got one corpse, he's gone back for another.
0:22:29 > 0:22:30He's hungry for corpse.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33WHISTLE
0:22:33 > 0:22:35Now, there is the policeman's whistle.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38They've got to get out of sight very quickly, here.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40They need to... I'd hurry up if I were you, Rowan.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42You need to make no sound
0:22:42 > 0:22:44cos if you get caught grave robbing,
0:22:44 > 0:22:47you're looking at life imprisonment.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51I'll actually drop my voice a little bit here, as well.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Just in case I were to give them away.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57He is a very, very efficient-looking policeman.
0:22:57 > 0:22:58WHISTLE
0:22:58 > 0:23:00He's missed them, though. He's missed them.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03They've escaped life imprisonment so that's good news.
0:23:03 > 0:23:04Back to grave robbing.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08And Zeke's rifling through his trousers, looking for the key.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10Zeke, notice, didn't take his trolley through,
0:23:10 > 0:23:14and as a result, has made up quite a bit of ground there.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16There's a bit of a fog in the air.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18There was always a bit of a fog in those days.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Fogs used to come down and just settle.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25All sorts of shenanigans you could get away with.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27This sort of caper for a kick-off.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29Bit of fog, grave robbers are out in force
0:23:29 > 0:23:33and thank goodness for us they were because we wouldn't have this game.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Now, then. Where are we?
0:23:35 > 0:23:39Zeke is wrestling with a man who looks like he's just played golf.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43- Oh, he's off his trolley! He's off his trolley!- Oh, dear me.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45But there we go.
0:23:45 > 0:23:49Ashley is doing very well. He's insisting on taking that trolley.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51This is where it's going to cost him
0:23:51 > 0:23:55cos Zeke has just nipped through with that second body.
0:23:55 > 0:23:56Down now for the third corpse.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59But he's been caught. He's been caught by Zeke now.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01Rowan struggling there with her trolley.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04I should point out at this stage that
0:24:04 > 0:24:07the trolleys have an off-centred wheel.
0:24:07 > 0:24:08And that's not accidental, Dave.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10We've fixed the trolleys
0:24:10 > 0:24:14so they're almost impossible to push evenly across the terrain.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15You're right.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18It's very interesting to see the different strategies.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21And now Zeke is in the lead!
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Ashley bringing his trolley through.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25That is really going to cost him cos Zeke has the bag.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28All he has to do is get the trolley down the other end,
0:24:28 > 0:24:30and he's won it.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Ashley is nowhere to be seen
0:24:32 > 0:24:34and Zeke passes through the railings like a ghost.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Celebrates in a slightly muted way.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39I have to say, Ashley will be kicking himself
0:24:39 > 0:24:41when he watches that back.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44Welcome back. What a good game.
0:24:44 > 0:24:45Very good game.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48- Zeke, you've won yourself another Year Sphere.- Cool.
0:24:48 > 0:24:49You've got nowhere to put it.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53I suggest you grab yourself one and give it to me to hold on to.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56There we go. I'll look after that. I'll leave it there.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59It's not going to be tampered with.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03No-one's every beaten the podium before. Excellent work.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Can I just point out to viewers that
0:25:05 > 0:25:07however badly you're doing at school,
0:25:07 > 0:25:10grave robbing is not a sensible career option.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- I think they knew that. - Well, you'd hope so, wouldn't you?
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Time to count those Year Spheres.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Remember, AD dates are added to your total,
0:25:18 > 0:25:20and BC dates are subtracted from it.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24So, you can still win if you get lucky with the Spheres.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Ashley, let's open up your Sphere.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34London's first flushing loo opened to the public.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36Ashley, that gives you 1,852 points.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39Rowan, let's see what you've got.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41Oh, dear me.
0:25:45 > 0:25:50Stone Age man domesticated dogs that year. Round about then, anyway.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52Zeke, let's see what you've got.
0:25:52 > 0:25:53Starting with that one.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00United States Declaration of Independence.
