0:00:20 > 0:00:22# Horrible Histories Gory...
0:00:23 > 0:00:24# ..Games! #
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Hello. Welcome to Horrible Histories Gory Games with him,
0:00:27 > 0:00:30Rattus Rattus and me, Dave Lamb.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32This is the show where...
0:00:32 > 0:00:35- Shouldn't you be Larry Lamb? - Sorry?
0:00:35 > 0:00:39Well, it's Horrible Histories Gory Games, Rattus Rattus,
0:00:39 > 0:00:40Larry Lamb.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Dave, it's Dave Lamb!
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Or Mr Lamb, if you like.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47All right, keep your wool on...Larry Lamb.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50This is the show where we test your knowledge of Horrible Histories
0:00:50 > 0:00:52with quirky quizzes and Gory Games,
0:00:52 > 0:00:55so without further interruption from the rat,
0:00:55 > 0:00:58let's meet our Horrible Historians.
0:00:58 > 0:00:59Hello, I'm Joel!
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hiya, I'm Holly!
0:01:01 > 0:01:02Howdy, I'm Ayanda!
0:01:02 > 0:01:04- Excellent.- Dave!- What?
0:01:04 > 0:01:07- Can we play a warm-up game that I've devised?- No.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11It's from the Victorian era and it's called Tosh For Dosh.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Have you run any of this past our bosses at CBBC?
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Course not! They might have said no!
0:01:16 > 0:01:18- Let's have the buckets.- Hang on.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19What are you up to?
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- It's just history, Larry.- It's Dave!
0:01:22 > 0:01:28All right. In 1865, Joseph Bazalgette built his famous London sewers,
0:01:28 > 0:01:31or as we know them, Rat City!
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Poor Victorians would descend into the sewers
0:01:33 > 0:01:35and go toshing,
0:01:35 > 0:01:39wading through the poo to look for dropped coins.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40All you lot have to do
0:01:40 > 0:01:44is find the five shilling coins I've hidden in your bucket of poop.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- And your time starts... - No, no, no. No way.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51We are not having people wading through excrement on my show.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55Someone will have to. I dropped your car keys in one of the buckets.
0:01:55 > 0:01:56- JOEL LAUGHS - Oh, brilliant.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Thanks, Rattus. That's just wonderful(!)
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- Which one was it?- I think it might be the middle bucket.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04It MIGHT be the middle bucket? Brilliant.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- SQUELCH! - Oh, for heaven's sake!
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Can I get some towels, please?
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- Towels for Larry, please.- It's Dave!
0:02:11 > 0:02:13# Gory Games! #
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Can I just say that it's NEVER a good idea
0:02:15 > 0:02:17to put your hand in poo.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Oh! Good night!
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Joel, Holly and Ayanda, you're playing to win Year Spheres.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26Each Year Sphere contains a historical date.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29At the end of the show, your dates will be added up,
0:02:29 > 0:02:31with AD dates being added to your total
0:02:31 > 0:02:33and BC dates subtracted from it.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36So if these were your Year Spheres, your total would be...
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Rattus? Sorry, Rattus. Your total would be, Rattus?
0:02:39 > 0:02:42That was warm and smelly. I liked it under there!
0:02:44 > 0:02:47My heart says 4, but my head says 12.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49It's 735.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52Typical! That's what my elbow said and I just didn't listen to it.
0:02:52 > 0:02:53At the end of the show,
0:02:53 > 0:02:57the person with the highest score will win a special historical prize
0:02:57 > 0:02:59picked out by my furry friend.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Something that will truly make your friends jealous.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Providing your friends are sewer-dwelling rodents.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08- Well, I know mine are.- Yes.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Right, let's get going. To find out what this round's about,
0:03:11 > 0:03:13over to the gory grid.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15It's the Measly Middle Ages.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Your four Middle Ages topics are...
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Joel, you pick first in this round.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28I think I'll pick Knights.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31That is a question from my dear friend Rattus Rattus.
0:03:31 > 0:03:32True or false?
0:03:32 > 0:03:38In 1291, some knights tried to storm the city of Acre.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42They approached at night, but their surprise attack went wrong
0:03:42 > 0:03:44when one of the knights stepped on a cat,
0:03:44 > 0:03:46which woke up the defenders.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Is that true or is that false?
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Let's see your answers now, please.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Joel and Holly have agreed with true.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Ayanda has gone for false. Rattus,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58put us out of our misery. What's the answer?
0:03:58 > 0:04:00- False!- Yes!
0:04:00 > 0:04:02It all went wrong when one of the knights
0:04:02 > 0:04:05fell head first into a toilet ditch. Ha-ha-ha!
0:04:05 > 0:04:09He made such a racket he woke up all the defenders.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
0:04:11 > 0:04:14- Oh, I'll shut up. - Holly, it's your turn to pick next.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17- Cures, please.- Cures.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21True or false - one Middle Ages cure for the Black Death
0:04:21 > 0:04:24involved shaving a live chicken's bottom
0:04:24 > 0:04:26and strapping it to your armpit?
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Very good. Holly and Joel agreeing again.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33Ayanda out on his own with false. Let's see what the answer is.
0:04:33 > 0:04:34It's true!
0:04:34 > 0:04:38- And it sure worked for me! - SHE COUGHS
0:04:38 > 0:04:39THUMP!
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Or maybe not.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Ayanda, your turn to pick a topic. All square at the moment.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45Fashion.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48True or false -
0:04:48 > 0:04:53in the 1400s it became fashionable for women to wear tall, pointy hats
0:04:53 > 0:04:55called steeples.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59The monk, Thomas Conecte, said all women should wear them.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Let's have a look at those answers.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Once again, Holly and Joel are agreeing.
0:05:03 > 0:05:04They've gone for false.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Ayanda's gone with true. Let's see who's right.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09It's false.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13He said, "They're a sign of the deadly sin of pride.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17"Burn them and wear humble peasant caps instead."
0:05:17 > 0:05:21Well, there we are. There's one question left in this round.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Everybody can still feasibly win.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26The question is on Burps.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31True or false - it was considered acceptable in the Middle Ages
0:05:31 > 0:05:33to burp at the dinner table?
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Everybody has gone for true.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38It's a clean sweep.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Are you all right or are you all wrong?
0:05:40 > 0:05:43It's true. You could burp at the table,
0:05:43 > 0:05:45as it was a sign of enjoying the meal.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47BURP!
0:05:47 > 0:05:50This, however, is not the Middle Ages.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52BURP! Sorry.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54- Oh, dear. - RATTUS BREAKS WIND
0:05:54 > 0:05:55That's even worse.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59OK, that's the end of that round and I can see from
0:05:59 > 0:06:00the abacus scoreboard in front of me
0:06:00 > 0:06:03that Joel and Holly have tied on three.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Ayanda, you're not in the buzzer round.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08You're history just for now, but don't panic. Plenty of time.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12You two, fingers on buzzers. We're going to the tiebreak question.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Beginning with the letter M,
0:06:15 > 0:06:19what is the name for the broad ditch filled with water
0:06:19 > 0:06:21that surrounds a castle? Holly.
0:06:21 > 0:06:22A moat?
0:06:22 > 0:06:26It is a moat. Congratulations, you get to pick a Year Sphere.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30Like a hook-handed pirate clearing his bogies, please do it carefully.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Good choice, bad choice? Who knows?
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Excuse I! Push, push, push, push.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39These could contain a Stone Age date worth millions of minus points.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40Winning the quiz means Holly
0:06:40 > 0:06:43is through to play the Middle Ages game,
0:06:43 > 0:06:47but will she be alone or will everyone else get to play?
0:06:50 > 0:06:53It's an All Play Gory Game!
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Off down the time sewer with the lot of you.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58- Yes!- Lead on, Ayanda.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03William The Conqueror was a very unpleasant man
0:07:03 > 0:07:06and his funeral was an appropriately unpleasant occasion.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Servants stole his treasure and the church burned down.
0:07:09 > 0:07:10It's time to play...
0:07:13 > 0:07:17You are William's servants and your challenge is to take his treasure
0:07:17 > 0:07:18and put it in your chest.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22The treasure is colour-coded and you must only take your own colour.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Whoever collects the most pieces wins the Year Sphere
0:07:25 > 0:07:29and you'd better be quick because the church is burning down!
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Your time starts now. - BUZZ!
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Here we go then, with Yuckaroo.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38They're looting a tomb and someone is going to explode.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42It's Holly who opens her account with a little goblet there,
0:07:42 > 0:07:45a little goblet stolen from William The Conqueror.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Joel straight back at her with a candlestick of his own,
0:07:48 > 0:07:50but Holly has a plate.
0:07:50 > 0:07:522-1. Nothing for Ayanda as yet.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Look at this, Joel is levelling it up.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Two apiece. They're showing themselves
0:07:57 > 0:08:00to be very good at stealing, these two!
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Superb effort. Ayanda yet to score.
0:08:02 > 0:08:07Ho-ho, look out! Holly's got herself a candlestick.
0:08:07 > 0:08:12She's back in the lead. Readjusts her glasses there, sensibly.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14The reason she's wearing those is because
0:08:14 > 0:08:16someone is about to explode.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18And Ayanda's off the mark, which is lovely.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21There goes Sir William The Conqueror!
0:08:21 > 0:08:26He's exploded everywhere and Joel felt the full force
0:08:26 > 0:08:29of those intestines as they rained down on his head
0:08:29 > 0:08:32while he tried to steal a trinket. What a massive explosion!
0:08:32 > 0:08:36- It really went up, didn't it, Rattus?- It certainly did.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39There are guts, gore and innards everywhere!
0:08:39 > 0:08:43That was quite extraordinary, but back now to the theft,
0:08:43 > 0:08:46which is the main part of this game.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49I think Ayanda, maybe, has been stealing treasure
0:08:49 > 0:08:54that's not colour-coded for him. I'm concerned that I can see green
0:08:54 > 0:08:55in his chest, there.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58I shouldn't be able to see green in his chest.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02- I should be able to see yellow, and yellow alone, Rattus.- It's...
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Look out! I'm sorry to cut in, but the building's on fire!
0:09:05 > 0:09:08They have to get out quick! The fire's taking hold!
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Someone get those kids out of there
0:09:10 > 0:09:12- before the building burns down! - BUZZ
0:09:12 > 0:09:16It's ended up with an absolute dead heat between Holly and Joel.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Joel, you are very, very fast!
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- Thank you.- Like a rat up a drainpipe.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26- You'd know about that, Rattus. - Being one, yes.- Ayanda, you were
0:09:26 > 0:09:29only supposed to get the yellow treasure.
0:09:29 > 0:09:30You managed to get green and brown!
0:09:30 > 0:09:32- Yeah.- Well, I can tell you,
0:09:32 > 0:09:34because of his generosity,
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Ayanda only managed one piece of his own colour,
0:09:37 > 0:09:42but the other two of you tied with five pieces each!
0:09:42 > 0:09:44So, Joel, help yourself to a Year Sphere.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Holly, help yourself to a Year Sphere.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Lovely.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Onwards, and to find out what's up next,
0:09:52 > 0:09:54it's over to the gory grid.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57It's the Rotten Romans.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Here are your all-important Roman topics.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Holly, your turn to pick first this time.
0:10:08 > 0:10:09Sport, please.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Here comes your question, ready or not.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Is it A, is it B, or is it C?
0:10:30 > 0:10:31Well, there we go.
0:10:31 > 0:10:35The boys agreeing on B, Holly going for C.
0:10:35 > 0:10:36The answer is...
0:10:36 > 0:10:40C - 250,000 people!
0:10:40 > 0:10:42So that's a point for Holly.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Let's put that into perspective.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47That is almost three times the size of Wembley Stadium.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- Or about the size of my immediate family.- Yes.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- Nightmare at Christmas!- It must be.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Holly, you have taken the lead in this round.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Ayanda, your turn to pick a topic.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00- Roman Life.- Oh, goodie!
0:11:00 > 0:11:02This is a prop question.
0:11:04 > 0:11:05RATTUS LAUGHS
0:11:05 > 0:11:07I know what this is!
0:11:07 > 0:11:10What was this sponge on a stick used for?
0:11:10 > 0:11:15A - cleaning windows, B - cleaning gladiator armour
0:11:15 > 0:11:18or C - wiping bottoms? Let's see your answers now.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Well, there wasn't much doubt there.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25They were grinning the moment the prop came out.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27They're absolutely right.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29It was for wiping bottoms.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Ha-ha-ha! Can't hold it any longer!
0:11:31 > 0:11:34- Ha-ha-ha!- He just loves bottoms!
0:11:34 > 0:11:35Can't help himself.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Let me award your points. There you go.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Joel, pick a topic.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43I think I'll pick food.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Which of these could you buy as a snack at the Roman Colosseum?
0:11:47 > 0:11:49A- boiled kittens,
0:11:49 > 0:11:51B - spiced budgies,
0:11:51 > 0:11:54or C - roast dormice?
0:11:55 > 0:11:58There we go. Holly and Ayanda going for C.
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Joel out on his own with B.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Let's hear what the answer is.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04C - roast dormice.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08They're best if fed on walnuts, acorns and chestnuts.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Mmm, nutty!
0:12:10 > 0:12:12There we go, points for Holly and Ayanda.
0:12:12 > 0:12:16One topic left in this round, a question about Caesar.
0:12:16 > 0:12:21After a war in Turkey, Julius Caesar famously said,
0:12:21 > 0:12:22"Veni, Vidi, Vici,"
0:12:22 > 0:12:25but what does the Latin mean?
0:12:25 > 0:12:28A - I came, I saw, I conquered,
0:12:28 > 0:12:32B - I came, I saw, I got a cold,
0:12:32 > 0:12:36or C - I came, I saw, I killed?
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Let's see what you've got. Interesting.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Joel and Holly going for B,
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Ayanda going for A. Let's hear what the answer is.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47A - I came, I saw, I conquered.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Oh, Caesar was such a hero!
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Shame about his huge nose.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57- That's harsh! - Isn't it harsh? Very harsh.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01Joel, I'm afraid for now you're history, but Holly and Ayanda,
0:13:01 > 0:13:03you've tied on three, so we go to the buzzer question.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Here it comes. With the initials JC,
0:13:06 > 0:13:11which famous Roman leader defeated the Gauls, invaded Britain
0:13:11 > 0:13:12and was murdered in Rome?
0:13:12 > 0:13:14- Holly.- Julius Caesar?
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Julius Caesar is the right answer. Well done!
0:13:17 > 0:13:20You've won another Year Sphere. Please go and collect it.
0:13:20 > 0:13:26As the quiz winner, you are through to play our Roman game,
0:13:26 > 0:13:29but will you be playing on your own or will everybody join in?
0:13:33 > 0:13:37It's an All Play Gory Game! It's off down the time sewer
0:13:37 > 0:13:40- with the lot of you! - Down the stinkhole! Yeah!
0:13:43 > 0:13:45When Romans wanted to conquer an enemy city,
0:13:45 > 0:13:48there were virtually no lengths they wouldn't go to.
0:13:48 > 0:13:49It's time to play...
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Romans would use catapults to fire all sorts of awful things,
0:13:56 > 0:13:59such as heavy rocks, hives of stinging bees
0:13:59 > 0:14:02and even the severed heads of dead enemies.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Your challenge is to fire as many missiles
0:14:04 > 0:14:06into your fortress target as possible.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10The person who gets the most in the time limit wins the Year Sphere.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13So, catapults at the ready! In three, two, one!
0:14:13 > 0:14:16- HOOTER BLARES - Here we go with Savage Siege.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20And in this our contestants have to catapult a number
0:14:20 > 0:14:22of different objects towards a basket.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25We see Joel has nailed one right from the off.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28I think interestingly he's swapped straight to a beehive.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31He should have stuck with heads, they were working.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33But beehives are working for Holly all right
0:14:33 > 0:14:35as she levels it up with Joel.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37That's superb. What an excellent start!
0:14:40 > 0:14:44Oh, she's in the lead! A head there from Holly puts her into the lead.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Ayanda also off the mark now. So that's good, they're all...
0:14:47 > 0:14:50They're all scoring, which is what we like to see.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53And in fact they're all level now. So, this is tight.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Look at the concentration on Ayanda's face there,
0:14:56 > 0:14:57as he lets loose another stone.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Doesn't hit its target. Two apiece. Level pegging.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04I used to know some of those rocks that Ayanda's shooting there.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08Some of them were shy, but now they're a little BOULDER.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha! Little BOULDER! Carry on with the narrating.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18Joel's back in it now. He gets his third point.
0:15:18 > 0:15:19Well, this is tremendous stuff.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22They really are getting the hang of this very nicely.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25And it's very, very close.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28Holly now, crucially with 30 seconds remaining,
0:15:28 > 0:15:31nails herself another head.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34But Ayanda takes the lead again, three, four, five, there it is!
0:15:34 > 0:15:37Holly's back at him! This is nip and tuck! It's incredibly close.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Holly's now in the...
0:15:39 > 0:15:43Oh, they've both scored within a millisecond of each other there!
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Six points apiece. Incredibly close. That one goes way over the top
0:15:46 > 0:15:50and Ayanda scores. Could that be crucial? Could that be crucial?
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Joel now thinking about mounting a comeback.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54- HOOTER BLARES - Ayanda scores another one!
0:15:54 > 0:15:58Just on the hooter! And he takes it eight, six, five.
0:15:58 > 0:16:03And the winner of the catapult challenge, with eight points,
0:16:03 > 0:16:06- was Ayanda.- Yeah! - And doesn't he like that!
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Ayanda, help yourself to a Year Sphere. Well done.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13The most powerful Roman catapult was called an onager,
0:16:13 > 0:16:15which is Latin for wild donkey.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19Because it kicked like a donkey, hard enough to knock down walls.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23- I was once kicked by a wild donkey. - In the head by any chance?
0:16:23 > 0:16:25- How did you know?- Lucky guess.- Tuh!
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Over to the Gory Grid to find out what's up next.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31It's the Terrible Tudors.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Here are your four Tudor topics.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41Ayanda, it's your turn to choose first this time.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Henry.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46What did I found in 1534 that is still going today?
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Is that A, B or C? Show me now.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58Absolute agreement. Everyone's gone for B.
0:16:58 > 0:16:59Are they right or wrong?
0:16:59 > 0:17:01The answer is B.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03I founded the Church of England.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05Basically, it was all about getting rid of one wife
0:17:05 > 0:17:09so I could marry the next. Story of my life really. Ha-ha!
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Very well played, you three. Everyone got a point there.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16- Joel, it's your turn to pick a topic.- Football.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20- Prop question.- Prop question! Prop question!
0:17:20 > 0:17:22This is a Tudor football made out of a pig's bladder.
0:17:22 > 0:17:28How many players were on a Tudor football team?
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Let's see your answer, please.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40Everybody's gone for C. I can tell you, you're right,
0:17:40 > 0:17:42the villages would compete against each other.
0:17:42 > 0:17:48There was no referee, and lots of people got injured. Two points each.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52- Two questions remaining. Holly, your turn to pick a topic.- Marriage.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54See what you make of this one.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57How did Tudor women show they were unmarried?
0:17:57 > 0:18:01A - they stuck signs saying "Unmarried" to their foreheads.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04B - they didn't wear bonnets.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Or C - they wore aprons.
0:18:06 > 0:18:11Let's see those answers now, please. Well, Joel and Ayanda going for C.
0:18:11 > 0:18:12Holly going for B.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15Let's find out what the answer is.
0:18:15 > 0:18:20B. To show they were unmarried, Tudor women didn't wear bonnets.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23Well done, Holly. That means if you get this next question right,
0:18:23 > 0:18:26you will have won yourself another Year Sphere.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30But if she were to get it wrong, you boys could tie this round up.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32The final question is on punishments.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36What was the Tudor punishment for poisoning someone?
0:18:36 > 0:18:38A - being crushed under a stone.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40B - being poisoned.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Or C - being boiled alive.
0:18:42 > 0:18:50Well done, OK. So Holly and Ayanda going for B, Joel for C.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52The answer is C.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56The Tudor punishment for poisoning someone was to be boiled alive.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Way too soft if you ask me.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02So, at the end of that round, Joel and Holly are all square.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Ayanda, you have to sit this out. We're going to a buzzer question.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08Fingers on buzzers, Joel and Holly.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10With the initials AB,
0:19:10 > 0:19:13who was Henry VIII's second wife who had her head chopped...
0:19:13 > 0:19:15Pppprrrtttt!
0:19:15 > 0:19:17- Holly.- Anne Boleyn. - Anne Boleyn is right.
0:19:17 > 0:19:22Holly, you've won yourself another Year Sphere. Collect it now, please.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25OK, Holly, you're through to play the Tudor game.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29Will it be an all-play or will it be a single-play game? Let's find out.
0:19:33 > 0:19:37It's an all-play brainy game. What a lot of all-play games we're having!
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Get down that Time Sewer, the lot of you.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Elizabeth I liked to look good in her portraits,
0:19:47 > 0:19:49which meant her portraits looked nothing like her.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53Poisonous, lead-based make-up had ruined Elizabeth's skin,
0:19:53 > 0:19:56so she preferred to have portraits of her younger self copied,
0:19:56 > 0:19:59rather than have artists paint how she really looked.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01It's time to play...
0:20:01 > 0:20:02Puzzling Portraits.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Your challenge is to make two perfect copies
0:20:05 > 0:20:07of an Elizabeth portrait.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11But your two puzzles are made out of differently shaped pieces.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Complete your puzzles quicker than the others
0:20:14 > 0:20:15to win the Year Sphere.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- In three, two, one. - HOOTER BLARES
0:20:18 > 0:20:22Here we go with Puzzling Portraits. Two identical portraits
0:20:22 > 0:20:27of Queen Elizabeth I, but with different-sized pieces.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29So two jigsaws at once effectively.
0:20:29 > 0:20:35Ayanda seems to be progressing nicely with his right-hand portrait.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38The trick to this game is to graft on an extra pair of hands
0:20:38 > 0:20:43to your body before the game, so that you have a better chance.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Interesting tactics, Rattus. Completely useless obviously.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48But interesting nonetheless.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52Dave, you're probably the only person old enough to have lived in Britain
0:20:52 > 0:20:56during the reigns of both Queen Elizabeths, which one was the best?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58I'm not dignifying that with a response.
0:20:59 > 0:21:04It was the second one. Back to the game now, though!
0:21:04 > 0:21:07And Joel, look at him, going very nicely.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Two portraits in operation at once.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Ayanda, having finished his first, now working on his second.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16I don't know what's happened to Holly. She's a long way behind.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20It's between the boys now as we watch this clash of styles.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24This battle between two techniques. The double-handed version from Joel,
0:21:24 > 0:21:27the single-single approach from Ayanda.
0:21:27 > 0:21:31It's going to be incredibly close! They've got two pieces left apiece!
0:21:31 > 0:21:36Joel's going to be there first! He's done it. He just beats Ayanda to it.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Holly, stop that.
0:21:38 > 0:21:43Welcome back. That was so close. Joel, take a Year Sphere.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46Do you know why you never see Elizabeth smiling in a portrait?
0:21:46 > 0:21:49- Because she had rotten teeth? - Precisely!
0:21:49 > 0:21:53Strange, because she cleaned her teeth regularly with sugar.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56- Urgh!- Sugar toothpaste? That's a little counter-productive.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59- It'll be like using mud as soap. - What's wrong with that?
0:21:59 > 0:22:03OK. Time for the final round.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06It's over to the Gory Grid one last time to find out who we've got.
0:22:06 > 0:22:10It's the Vile Victorians. Good day!
0:22:10 > 0:22:14No quirky quiz in our final round, straight to our big all-play game.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17And what a scary one we've got for you.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21- Everyone, get down that Time Sewer once again.- Let's go!- Let's do it.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24- Aaargh!- Geronimo!
0:22:28 > 0:22:30When Queen Victoria was no more than a child,
0:22:30 > 0:22:34the monstrous crime of grave-robbing was quite common.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Dead bodies were sold to surgeons, keen to experiment on them.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39It's time to play...
0:22:41 > 0:22:44You are a rotten robber. Your challenge -
0:22:44 > 0:22:46to steal three bodies from the graveyard,
0:22:46 > 0:22:48get them through the railings, onto the carts,
0:22:48 > 0:22:52find the key to the cemetery gate, and get them to the surgeon's table.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54- If you hear this noise... - WHISTLE BLOWS
0:22:54 > 0:22:58..then you must hide in the cemetery so the policeman doesn't spot you.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00A second whistle means you can go.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04The first person to get all their bodies to the surgeon's table
0:23:04 > 0:23:08and grab their dodgy money is the winner. In three, two, one...
0:23:08 > 0:23:10HOOTER BLARES
0:23:10 > 0:23:14Through the metal railings to start. Grab that body. Oh, the indignity!
0:23:14 > 0:23:17Look at these bodies being wrestled through the railings.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Thrown down on their trolleys.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23- Some of these dead bodies look in terrible shape.- Extremely.
0:23:23 > 0:23:28That is the fate of a dead body, to deteriorate over time
0:23:28 > 0:23:32- and look worse with every passing moment.- You're absolutely right.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35Holly has stolen a key from her dead body and is opening the gates.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37She's successful,
0:23:37 > 0:23:40and plops her first corpse onto the surgeon's table!
0:23:40 > 0:23:44Joel seconds behind her. This is very close.
0:23:44 > 0:23:48Ayanda falling behind the other two, but there's still time to catch up.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Holly onto her second as Ayanda delivers his first.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55She yanked that through! Grabbed it by the ankle and yanked it.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- Unceremoniously yanked!- It was awful.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02It is awful, really, what's happening here.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06Grave are being robbed by children! That's excellent stuff.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09- WHISTLE BLOWS - Holly is unnervingly good at this.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12The policeman's here, so they've gone into hiding.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Here comes the policeman, having a good look round.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19If he were to spot them, they would be in deep, deep trouble.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22- And what a big hat he's got.- He's a very serious-looking individual.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26Then he is a policeman. He's gone. Whoever he was, he's gone.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29They can come back out and keep stealing bodies.
0:24:29 > 0:24:35That's exactly what Joel and Ayanda are doing. A body apiece.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Joel's doing very well, right up the far end. There's Holly.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Look at that, there's the second body delivered.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Holly's in the lead, she's really yanked that one through by one leg.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48They manipulate the bodies into extraordinary shapes!
0:24:48 > 0:24:52- I'd pay good money to a chiropractor for that.- I'm sure you would, Rattus.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55In fact, you have on many occasions.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Here comes Holly, this is her final body! She's there!
0:24:58 > 0:25:03She's picked up the dodgy money. Just get through the railings now...
0:25:03 > 0:25:07She's won it! That money can be spent however she likes.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Probably on a good solicitor, Dave.
0:25:12 > 0:25:16Well done, everyone. Holly, pick yourself up your final Year Sphere.
0:25:16 > 0:25:20Tremendous performance, really excellent.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23It's time to count up those Year Spheres.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Remember, the AD dates are added to your total,
0:25:26 > 0:25:29and the BC dates are subtracted from it.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31The fact that you don't have the most spheres
0:25:31 > 0:25:34doesn't mean you're not going to win.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Joel, open up that first Year Sphere.
0:25:37 > 0:25:42Oh, dear me. 9,000 BC.
0:25:42 > 0:25:46Stone-age man started using bow and arrow around about then.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49That's not what you were hoping for. The other one...
0:25:49 > 0:25:51- Please do not be a BC!- Oh!
0:25:51 > 0:25:55- Oh, come on!- 3,150 BC,
0:25:55 > 0:25:58the start of Ancient Egypt.
0:25:58 > 0:26:04You've ended up with a score of minus 12,150. Bad luck, Joel.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Holly, let's see how you're getting on.
0:26:06 > 0:26:0864 AD.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11That was the year Rome burned down.
0:26:11 > 0:26:131492 AD.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16Christopher Columbus discovered the new world.
0:26:16 > 0:26:22793 AD, Vikings attack the Lindisfarne monastery.
0:26:22 > 0:26:271665 AD, the plague! Let's have a look at the last one.
0:26:27 > 0:26:31- 1871 AD!- Oh, come on!
0:26:31 > 0:26:34The year that bank holidays were invented.
0:26:34 > 0:26:41Holly, you have a tremendous score of 5,885.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44Ayanda. It's slightly forlorn, the hope here.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46And you got 264 BC.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49That, of course, was the first Roman Gladiator games.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52But it does mean that today's winner,
0:26:52 > 0:26:57with 5,885 points is Holly, who wins the star prize.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00What's the big prize then, Rattus?
0:27:00 > 0:27:03Today's prize is a real treat to behold.
0:27:03 > 0:27:07In fact, it's been HOLED already! Ha ha ha!
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Yes, all the way from the Stone Age,
0:27:09 > 0:27:14it's your very own trepanned skull.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17It's had a hole knocked in the side to release the evil spirits.
0:27:17 > 0:27:21- Those cavemen, eh? Ha ha!- Well done, Rattus. The head of a dead man.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25- Yet another terrible prize. - I thought you'd like it. After all,
0:27:25 > 0:27:29- you have a photo of an ancient skull in your dressing room.- That's me.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32LAUGHTER Whoops!
0:27:32 > 0:27:35Just remains for me to say thanks to our champion Holly,
0:27:35 > 0:27:37to our gallant runners-up Joel and Ayanda.
0:27:37 > 0:27:42- Yeah!- And no thanks whatsoever to Rattus.- My pleasure.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44This has been Gory Games. Goodbye.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48# Was that show messy enough for you?
0:27:48 > 0:27:51# Or would you have preferred a little more poo?
0:27:51 > 0:27:54# Have you had your fill of blood guts and gore?
0:27:54 > 0:27:56# Or have we left you still wanting more?
0:27:56 > 0:27:58# Well, keep watching
0:27:58 > 0:28:00# We'll be back again
0:28:00 > 0:28:03# With Horrible Histories Gory Games
0:28:03 > 0:28:05# Horrible Histories Gory Games! #
