Hello and welcome to Gory Games, with me, Dave Lamb. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
You may have heard me on Come Dine With Me. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
And me, Rattus Rattus. You may have heard me rooting through your bins. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:34 | |
Can I thank the couple at number 17, Riverside Road, | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
for throwing out that chicken carcase? Cheers, guys! | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
This is the show where you get to test your knowledge | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
of Horrible Histories with quirky questions and gory games, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
so before Rattus thanks anyone else for their leftovers, | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
let's meet our Horrible Historians. Introduce yourselves, please! | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
-Hi, I'm Joanne. -Hello, Joanne! | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
-Hi, I'm James. -Welcome, James! | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
-Hi! I'm Ty! -To start the show off, a little warm-up game | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
of my very own - a sort of cookery challenge, | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
to see if our contestants can whip up a batch | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
of that much-loved Roman delicacy, garum sauce. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
This bucket contains the three main ingredients, | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
-mackerel, tuna and eels. -OK. Well, that all sounds all right. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
HE CHOKES AND GAGS Yes, I should've said, shouldn't I? | 0:01:17 | 0:01:21 | |
The fish has to be completely rotten. HE CACKLES | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
Our contestants have to pull out the rotting fish guts | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
-and leave them to dry in the sun. -That is disgusting! | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
-What is wrong with you? -No, honestly! Once it's dried out, | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
garum sauce actually has quite a subtle, delicate aroma. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
-Look! Here's some I prepared earlier. -Really? | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
-It's subtle and delicate? -Yeah, yeah! | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
HE SNIFFS DEEPLY Argh! | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
HE SNORTS | 0:01:48 | 0:01:49 | |
Well, it's subtle and delicate if you live down a sewer. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
Ugh... Right! | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
Joanne, James and Ty, you're playing to win Year Spheres. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
Each sphere contains a historical date, | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
and at the end of the show your dates will be added up, | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
with AD dates being added to your total | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
and BC dates being subtracted from it. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
So, if these were your spheres, your total would be... Rattus? | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
-Er...six? -No. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
-Has it got six in it? -No. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:20 | |
It's 735. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
Ah, so close! | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
The person with the highest year score | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
will win a fantastic prize. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
-Chosen by yours truly! -All right. Maybe not a fantastic prize, then, | 0:02:28 | 0:02:33 | |
but a prize nonetheless. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
Right! Off we go. And to find out what round one's all about, | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
it's over to the Gory Grid. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
It's the Measly Middle Ages. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
So, four questions on the Measly Middle Ages coming up. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
The person who gets the most right wins the first Year Sphere, | 0:02:48 | 0:02:51 | |
and your four topics are... | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
Joanne, you get to pick first this round. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
-What's it going to be? -Ink. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
-Ink! -True or false - | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
monks used to make ink from squished woodlice. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
Hmm! So, true or false. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
Let's see your answers now, please. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
-Oh! -And you've all gone for false! | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
Interesting! Let's hear what the correct answer is. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:21 | |
False. But they did use wasps' eggs, | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
mixed with vinegar, gum to thicken it, | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
-and copper water for colour. -You've all made a fantastic start. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
It's a point each. James, it's your turn to choose a topic. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:33 | |
-I choose washing. -Washing! | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
True or false - in the Middle Ages, | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
peasants used to wash their clothes in buckets of poo. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
What a question that was! | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
Well, Ty and Joanne going for false. James thinks that's true. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:49 | |
Interesting! Let's hear the correct answer. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
It's false, although they did wash their clothes in buckets of wee. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
-SHE SNIFFS -Mmm! Fragrant! | 0:03:55 | 0:04:00 | |
So, there you go, you see. Washing your clothes in poo | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
is probably not a very good idea. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
Mind you, neither's washing them in wee, and they did that! | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
-Ty, your turn to choose a topic. -Swords! | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
Bet you don't know this one. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
Well, a clean sweep of trues! What's the answer? | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
It's true! It was massive, as tall as a man. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
Look at the scores. Three points each for Joanne and Ty, | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
two for James, with one question left. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
James, you can still bring this into a tiebreak. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:39 | |
The final question is on kings. Let's hear it now, please. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
True or false - in 1216, King John lost his crown jewels. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:48 | |
They were being transported along the coast | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
when the tide came in and swept them out to sea. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
Everybody has gone for false. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
-What's the actual answer? -It's true! | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
King John also died in 1216. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
I think it's safe to say 1216 wasn't his best year. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:07 | |
Awful! Losing your jewels and dying. Terrible business. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:11 | |
I'm afraid no-one got that right, but what it does mean | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
is that Joanne and Ty have drawn that round. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:18 | |
So we're in a tiebreaker situation. Ty and Joanne, | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
fingers on your buzzers. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
The first person to buzz in with the correct answer | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
wins the Year Sphere. Beginning with the letter H, | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
what is the name of the battle in which William the Conqueror - | 0:05:29 | 0:05:33 | |
-Joanne? -Hastings. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
Hastings is absolutely right, Joanne! | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
You have won the quiz. Time to choose your Year Sphere. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
-Push-push-push-push-push! Ah! -I hope you don't pick one | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
with a Stone Age date, with a few million minus points, | 0:05:44 | 0:05:47 | |
but I can think of two people who hope you do. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
That's them there. OK, Joanne. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:52 | |
You've won the quiz, so you're automatically through | 0:05:52 | 0:05:56 | |
to play the Measly Middle Ages game, but will you be playing alone | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
or will everyone get a go? Let's find out. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
It's an all-play gory game! You can hear them celebrating. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
They want to get down there. Let's put them out of their misery. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:13 | |
Off down the Time Sewer with all of you! | 0:06:13 | 0:06:15 | |
-HE YELLS -There goes Ty. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
Urgh! | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
Oh, stinky! | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
At William the Conqueror's funeral, his servants stole his jewels | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
and the church burnt down. Apart from that it went smoothly. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
It's time to play Yuckaroo! | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
You are William's servants, and your challenge | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
is to take his treasure and put it in your chest. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
All the treasure is colour coded. You must only take your own colour. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:41 | |
Whoever collects the most pieces wins the Year Sphere. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
And you'd better be quick, because the church is going to burn down. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
-Your time starts... -HORN BLARES | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
Here we go, then, with Yuckaroo. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
Treasure needs to be colour coded. They need to steal their own bit | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
and pop it in their chest. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
You must have done a bit of theft in your time, Rattus. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
I don't know what you're saying, Dave. I've never stolen anything. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
A likely story. Look, he's unscrewing that candlestick | 0:07:05 | 0:07:09 | |
as much as he can. He's doing quite well, though, Ty. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
He's off to a pretty decent start. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
That's two pieces he's got. Joanna also off the mark. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
James is having problems with that crown, but he's got it off now, | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
and it's in the chest. Can I just make it clear | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
that we're not in any way encouraging stealing? | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
Even if it's from a murderous tyrant from the Middle Ages? | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
-Yes, even then. -Oh. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
They're all trying these things... | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
-They're finding them difficult to remove. -They're bolted down, Dave. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:38 | |
The area I live in, if it's not bolted down, it goes. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
Oh, and his stomach has exploded! | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
I think I may have failed to tell you | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
that his stomach exploded during the funeral, | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
but you saw it with your own eyes there. Guts absolutely everywhere. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:52 | |
Let's hope that hasn't put them off too much. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:56 | |
This game is more my cup of tea - or, as we rats say, | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
my dustbin of entrails. HE LAUGHS | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
I can't imagine what the smell is like | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
with all that entrails, guts and gore spread everywhere. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:07 | |
That doesn't come across from the pictures. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:09 | |
It must be absolutely humming in there. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:12 | |
Guts everywhere - the guts of a dead person, as well, | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
-not a live one. -Not a live one. -Not nice fragrant guts. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
There's another piece going in for James. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
He may be mounting something of a comeback. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
Look out! The church is on fire! | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
There's smoke rising up everywhere! | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
They're going to have to finish this fast! | 0:08:28 | 0:08:31 | |
-HORN BLARES -Time's up. That's how it's finished, | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
and that is what actually happened at William the Conqueror's funeral. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:39 | |
The church did catch fire. What a result! | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
Welcome back! Take your places. With a total of six pieces, | 0:08:43 | 0:08:48 | |
the winner was Ty! Collect your Year Sphere now. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
So, tell me, everybody, did you enjoy Yuckaroo? | 0:08:53 | 0:08:56 | |
Yes! | 0:08:56 | 0:08:57 | |
-Who actually saw the stomach explode? -Me. -I did. | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
-I went, like, "Ooh!" -You weren't expecting it? | 0:09:00 | 0:09:03 | |
-No. -No. -I thought it was going to pop up. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
So the explosion was probably a good thing! | 0:09:05 | 0:09:08 | |
Over to the Gory Grid to find out what's up next. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:12 | |
It's the Vile Victorians. Good day! | 0:09:12 | 0:09:15 | |
Four questions again. Here are your four Victorian topics. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
James, it's your turn to pick first this time. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:26 | |
Queen Victoria. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:28 | |
The question is as follows. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
Look at that! Everyone seems very confident that it's B. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:44 | |
-Let's find out. -The answer is... | 0:09:44 | 0:09:47 | |
You're absolutely right. Well played indeed. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:52 | |
She had a fear of bishops as a small child, | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
and she kept it into adulthood. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:57 | |
Hey! I too have an irrational fear - | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
of soap and clean water. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:01 | |
It is irrational, and it's very unfortunate for me. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
Ty, your turn to pick a topic. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
I'm going to go for Eccentrics. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
Which of these would you not have found | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
inside the second Baron Rothschild's house - | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
A, snakes twined around the banisters, | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
B, a lion wearing a bow tie, | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
or C, 12 dressed monkeys having a dinner party? | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
Wow! Everybody thinks it's B. Let's find out. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
It's B, a lion wearing a bow tie. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
Imagine trying to put a bow tie on a lion! | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
The second Baron Rothschild was eccentric, not crazy. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:38 | |
You fancy putting a bow tie on a lion, Rat? | 0:10:38 | 0:10:41 | |
-Not really, no. -But you've all scored two points. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
This is a tremendous round for all of you. Joanne, pick a topic. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:49 | |
I'll pick cars. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
How fast was the speed limit for early Victorian cars? | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
This is extraordinary! They're all in total agreement again. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:06 | |
-But are they right? -The answer is A, four miles per hour. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:10 | |
Who could want to travel faster than that? It would be madness! | 0:11:10 | 0:11:13 | |
Victorian Top Gear can't have been very exciting. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
The track record would have been two hours! | 0:11:16 | 0:11:19 | |
-Yeah. Victorians didn't have TV. -I know! I was just joking. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:23 | |
-It was just a silly joke. Huh! -You're all doing amazingly well. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:26 | |
You've got three points each. This is the last question in this round. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:30 | |
-It's about gadgets, and it's a prop question. -A prop question! | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
I love prop questions! Oh, look! | 0:11:33 | 0:11:36 | |
That is a prop. This is a genuine Victorian contraption. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:41 | |
But what was it used for? Was it A, blowing up whoopi cushions... | 0:11:41 | 0:11:45 | |
Let's see those answers now, please! | 0:11:49 | 0:11:52 | |
It's all in total agreement again! | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
You've all gone for B, oiling bicycles. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:58 | |
On this occasion, you're all absolutely... | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |
wrong! | 0:12:00 | 0:12:02 | |
RATTUS CACKLES | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
I know. Look at Ty's face. He can't believe it! | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
The answer was C. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
-This was for filling doughnuts. -Filling doughnuts! | 0:12:09 | 0:12:11 | |
HE CACKLES | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
What that means, of course, is that we have a three-way tie, | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
and that means fingers on your buzzers. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
Here we go. Beginning with the letter V, | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
which queen, famous for wearing black clothes... | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
-Ty? -Victoria. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |
Is the right answer. Well done, Ty. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
You have just won yourself a second Year Sphere. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
-He's quick off the mark! -OK. Ty, as the quiz winner, | 0:12:33 | 0:12:36 | |
you're also through to play the Victorian Game. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:40 | |
But will it be just you, or will the others all play too? | 0:12:40 | 0:12:43 | |
It's a single-player brainy game! | 0:12:47 | 0:12:50 | |
Ty, get yourself down that Time Sewer. Go on, fella! | 0:12:50 | 0:12:54 | |
HE YELLS | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
Not everyone in Victorian times had a sensible name | 0:12:57 | 0:13:01 | |
like Queen Victoria. Oh, no. In fact, some had very silly names - | 0:13:01 | 0:13:05 | |
-for instance, Princess Cheese. -RATTUS LAUGHS | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
That was a real Victorian name. She wasn't a real princess. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
I think I'd remember if we'd had a Queen Cheese. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
-It's time to play the... -'Name Shame Game!' | 0:13:16 | 0:13:18 | |
Seven Victorian names, but two are totally made up. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:22 | |
Your challenge, to work out which five are real. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:26 | |
Choose five names and move them to the "real" board, | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
then touch the Princess Cheese to find out how many you've got right. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:33 | |
Keep trying new combinations until you've got all five, | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
-and your time starts now! -HORN BLARES | 0:13:36 | 0:13:40 | |
Ty is off. So, we're looking for real Victorian names. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
He's gone for Scary Looker. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:46 | |
Oh, Minty Badger. Minty Badger getting a run-out. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:49 | |
-That's good news. -You're not wrong, Dave! | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
And there it is. That's Farting Clack. Farting Clack. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:55 | |
I don't know about Farting Clack or Minty Badger, Dave, | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
but I did once live on a riverbank near a farting badger. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:02 | |
Too much information there, Rattus. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
Artemis Bumwhistle there. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
And the final one, Susan Semolina-Thrower. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
Well, he's got one wrong. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:12 | |
John Idiot going in there, off the subs bench. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:19 | |
-'You have all five right!' -He has done it! | 0:14:19 | 0:14:22 | |
He has won that game in extraordinary time. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
Princess Cheese only got two hammerings. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
RATTUS LAUGHS | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
He was right - Artemis Bumwhistle and Stupid Cupid were made up, | 0:14:33 | 0:14:37 | |
but the others, remarkably, were all genuine Victorian names. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:41 | |
-John Idiot was a real Victorian? -Yes, he was, Rattus. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:45 | |
Do you think he had a descendant - Dave Idiot? | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
HE CACKLES THEY LAUGH | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
Just asking. Just asking. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:55 | |
Ty, tell us exactly how you managed to do that game. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
I just knew all of them apart from that one. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
Well, you were incredibly quick. Right! Over to the Gory Grid | 0:15:00 | 0:15:04 | |
to find out who's up next. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
It's the Awful Egyptians. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:09 | |
And here are your four Egyptian topics. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
And Ty, it's your turn to lead us off. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
Toothpaste! | 0:15:21 | 0:15:23 | |
Toothpaste. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:24 | |
Here's what I want to know. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
A, crushed bat, | 0:15:30 | 0:15:32 | |
B, liquefied snail, | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
or C, chopped mouse. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
Let's see your answers now, please. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
So, you've all gone for C. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:42 | |
Well, I can tell you, the answer is... | 0:15:42 | 0:15:45 | |
C! We used chopped-up mouse. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:48 | |
You should not use mice to clean your teeth. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
They're disgusting little things, with their little tails | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
-and their strange little whiskers. -Have you looked in a mirror lately? | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
So, that's a point each there. Well done. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:04 | |
-Joanne, it's your turn to pick a topic. -Er, Mummies. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
-That is a prop question. -I like the prop questions. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
Hello! A mummy's hand. Hello, everyone. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
Lovely. Mummification was very popular in ancient Egypt, | 0:16:14 | 0:16:18 | |
and so many mummies were dug up in the Victorian era | 0:16:18 | 0:16:21 | |
they became used for all sorts of things. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
But which of these was not one of them? | 0:16:23 | 0:16:26 | |
Was it A, making newspaper, | 0:16:26 | 0:16:28 | |
B, scaring birds away from fields, | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
or C, repairing cracked walls? | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
Ah! So Ty and Joanne with A, | 0:16:33 | 0:16:37 | |
James a B. The answer is... | 0:16:37 | 0:16:40 | |
B, James! The mummy's going to give you a point. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
Mummies were not used for scaring birds away from fields, | 0:16:43 | 0:16:47 | |
but they were mulched and used as newspaper, | 0:16:47 | 0:16:50 | |
as well as filler for walls. Excellent. James, | 0:16:50 | 0:16:53 | |
-your turn to pick. -I'm going to pick Festivals. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
Festivals. | 0:16:56 | 0:16:58 | |
What did we pharaohs have to wear during the Heb Sed festival - | 0:16:58 | 0:17:02 | |
A, a pineapple on our head, | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
B, a wolf's tail on our backside, | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
or C, a monkey on our shoulder? | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
Three Cs. All in complete agreement. Let's see if they're all right. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:15 | |
The answer is B, a wolf's tail on our backside. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:19 | |
Let me tell you, I wasn't very happy about it. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
-Nor was the wolf, for that matter. -I'm not surprised. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
So you all got that one wrong, | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
which means, as we come to the last question in the round, | 0:17:27 | 0:17:30 | |
James is in the lead. So James, if you get this right, | 0:17:30 | 0:17:33 | |
-you've won your first Year Sphere. -Yes! | 0:17:33 | 0:17:35 | |
The remaining category is Ramesses IV. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:37 | |
When archaeologists found the mummy of Ramesses IV, | 0:17:38 | 0:17:42 | |
what was unusual about it? | 0:17:42 | 0:17:44 | |
Was it A, he was actually a woman, | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
B, he had seven fingers on one hand, | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
or C, his eyes had been replaced with onions? | 0:17:49 | 0:17:53 | |
You've all gone for C. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:57 | |
Let's hear if you're right. | 0:17:57 | 0:17:59 | |
The answer is C. His eyes had been replaced with onions. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
Onions! Brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:06 | |
Onions were, of course, valuable, and sometimes the eyes were replaced | 0:18:06 | 0:18:10 | |
with valuable things. So, James, you have won yourself | 0:18:10 | 0:18:14 | |
-your first Year Sphere! -Yeah! | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
-Pick away. -They're shiny, they're round, | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
they come from under the ground. Year Spheres! | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
Year Spheres! | 0:18:23 | 0:18:26 | |
-No reason. Just felt like it. -Lovely, Rattus. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:28 | |
So, James, you're through to play the Egyptian Game. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:32 | |
Will it be just you, or will everybody else be coming along? | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
It's time to find out. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:37 | |
It's an All Play brainy game! | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
It's off down the Time Sewer with all of you! | 0:18:42 | 0:18:45 | |
-There goes Ty. -Urgh! | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
-There goes James. -HE COUGHS | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |
And there goes Joanne. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:53 | |
Now, Egyptian pharaohs liked to be buried in style, | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |
and what could be more stylish than a pyramid? | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
It's time to play... | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
It took about two million heavy blocks to build a pyramid, | 0:19:03 | 0:19:07 | |
and you've just got nine light ones. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:09 | |
Your challenge, to work out which block goes where. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:13 | |
To help you, we've put one block in place. First of you to finish | 0:19:13 | 0:19:17 | |
wins the Year Sphere. So, ready, steady... | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
Get building! And they're off. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
They've got to build a pyramid. Sounds easy, doesn't it, Rattus? | 0:19:23 | 0:19:27 | |
-Rattus? Rattus! -Well, yes. The puzzle did come with instructions. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:31 | |
Unfortunately they were all in hieroglyphics. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
That's not going to be an awful lot of use here. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
So, the first pieces now beginning to go into place. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
And it's a big piece. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:42 | |
Oh, Joanne also going in for a big piece. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
James has started with a slightly smaller piece. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
Isn't it interesting to see the different tactics? | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
I'm not so sure it's tactics. It's blind, wild guessing. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:53 | |
Well, yes, that's the unkind way of looking at it. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:56 | |
I like to think they're using their tactical nous here. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
Joanne really weighing this up. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:02 | |
Look at James. He's doing extremely well here. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
What an excellent start from James! Ty is all over the place. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
Let's be fair. With the best will in the world, | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
you're not going to make a pyramid like that. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
James has got that upside down at the moment. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:17 | |
Let's hope he turns it round. Yes, of course he has. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:20 | |
Ty looks as if he's doing well. I don't think he is. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:24 | |
Whereas Joanne is doing very, very nicely. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
She has the whole ground floor in place, as it were, | 0:20:27 | 0:20:31 | |
and she's beginning to start on the first floor. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
There's the first piece. James is not too far behind, | 0:20:38 | 0:20:41 | |
assuming the pieces he's already got down are right. I'm not sure, | 0:20:41 | 0:20:45 | |
to be honest. And they need to realise that each piece | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
will only fit on one specific place. That's the whole point. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:52 | |
Yes, one of those pieces is quite clearly wrong. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
That's not sitting squarely on the plinth at all, | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
and I don't know what Ty's building, but it's definitely not a pyramid. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:01 | |
Joanne is getting very close to completing this pyramid, I think. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:05 | |
It's taking shape very, very nicely indeed. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
That's another level completed. Three more pieces to go for Joanne. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:13 | |
That's another piece in place. There's a huge crack in her pyramid, | 0:21:13 | 0:21:16 | |
but we won't hold that against her. Here comes the top piece! | 0:21:16 | 0:21:20 | |
-She's about to take a sphere! -Come on! One more! | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |
-That's the one! -Joanne! | 0:21:23 | 0:21:25 | |
-Joanne wins hands-down! -And her hands go up in triumph. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
What a superb pyramid that is, | 0:21:29 | 0:21:31 | |
even though it has got a massive crack in it. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:34 | |
Well done, Joanne. Collect your Year Sphere. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
So, a quick look at the scores at this stage | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
means that Ty has three Year Spheres, Joanne has two, | 0:21:41 | 0:21:44 | |
and James has one, so everybody's in the game. That's fantastic. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:47 | |
Time now for the final round, | 0:21:47 | 0:21:50 | |
and it's over to the Gory Grid one last time | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
-to find out who we've got. -It's the Terrible Tudors. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:56 | |
No Quirky Quiz in our final round. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:58 | |
It's straight to a big all-play Tudor endgame, | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
and it is a silly one. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:03 | |
Everybody, get back down that Time Sewer. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:07 | |
-Oh, not again! -I know. I'm sorry, Joanne. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
This'll be the last time, I promise. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
THEY GROAN | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
-Now, it's no secret that Henry VIII liked his food. -Oh, yes. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:20 | |
It's true. I can't deny it. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:22 | |
-Ho-ho-ho! Look at that! -HIS TUMMY GURGLES | 0:22:22 | 0:22:25 | |
You see? And now he wants feeding. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:27 | |
It's time to play... | 0:22:27 | 0:22:29 | |
You have to collect pies and fling them into Henry's mouth. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:34 | |
Sounds easy! It would be, if you weren't attached to a bungee cord. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:38 | |
The person who gets the most pies in their Henry's mouth | 0:22:38 | 0:22:41 | |
in the time limit wins the Year Sphere. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
Three, two, one... | 0:22:44 | 0:22:46 | |
It's pie time! So here we go, then, | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
with Who Ate All The Pies, and the answer will be Henry VIII, | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
because there are three of him, with their mouths wide open | 0:22:52 | 0:22:55 | |
while our plucky gamers try to run up the lane | 0:22:55 | 0:22:58 | |
on their bungee cords and hurl pies into his open mouth. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:02 | |
There's our pie man. This is his fourth appearance this season. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:05 | |
He's terrific. We're very lucky to get him. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
So, no pies have found their mark yet. There's Ty. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:11 | |
He's already beginning to tire. That one just misses to the right. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:15 | |
Catches on the chin. One on the nose. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:17 | |
This is very exciting, but not many pies finding their mark. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:20 | |
That's right, Dave. Not many at all. We've got three Henrys there, | 0:23:20 | 0:23:24 | |
all with their mouths wide open, but not one single pie has gone through | 0:23:24 | 0:23:28 | |
-as far as I can see. -Some varying techniques being employed, | 0:23:28 | 0:23:33 | |
Ty going with the underarm hoick, | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
and some of the others going with the classical Frisbee delivery. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
-There's a perfect example. -Henry's diet is more unhealthy than mine, | 0:23:39 | 0:23:43 | |
and that's saying something, I can tell you. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:47 | |
There's one gone in! Yes, Joanne has fed Henry his first pie. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:51 | |
They're not really getting many in. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
They're not, and they're beginning to tire. | 0:23:57 | 0:23:59 | |
It's a very difficult game. I tried playing it earlier on, | 0:23:59 | 0:24:02 | |
-and failed miserably. -As, I'm afraid, are our contestants, | 0:24:02 | 0:24:06 | |
at the moment. James scores! Joanne's got another! | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
THEY BOTH SHOUT EXCITEDLY | 0:24:09 | 0:24:12 | |
After a long period of nothing happening, | 0:24:12 | 0:24:15 | |
James and Joanne scored... Oh, and Joanne's scored again! | 0:24:15 | 0:24:19 | |
This is tremendous of Joanne. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
But, oh, dear, me, Ty's fallen over there, | 0:24:21 | 0:24:24 | |
that bungee cord recoiling and whipping him back. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:27 | |
James, though... Look at that concentration. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:33 | |
Lovely shot. Caught him right in the eye. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
And I think Joanne landed another one there! | 0:24:35 | 0:24:38 | |
She's way out in front now. She's surely not going to be caught. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
-'Time's up!' -The game is over. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
The pie man stands with two pies that'll never be flung in anger, | 0:24:45 | 0:24:49 | |
and Joanne is our winner! | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
Back you come, gory gamers. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
Joanne, please pick yourself another Year Sphere. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:01 | |
So, now it's time to count up those Year Spheres. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:07 | |
Remember, AD years are added to your total, | 0:25:07 | 0:25:11 | |
and BC years subtracted from it, | 0:25:11 | 0:25:13 | |
so the fact that you've only got one, James, | 0:25:13 | 0:25:16 | |
does not mean that you're out of the running. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:19 | |
Joanne, if you could open your Year Spheres first. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:22 | |
1658 AD! | 0:25:23 | 0:25:26 | |
The death of Oliver Cromwell. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:28 | |
1918 AD! The end of the First World War. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:33 | |
And the last one - 1875 AD, | 0:25:33 | 0:25:38 | |
law bans child chimney sweeps. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:41 | |
But you have got an impressive 5,451 points. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:47 | |
-RATTUS LAUGHS -Wow! James, | 0:25:47 | 0:25:49 | |
this is going to be difficult with one sphere, | 0:25:49 | 0:25:52 | |
but let's see what you've got in there. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
Oh, it's 2560 BC! | 0:25:55 | 0:26:00 | |
The Great Pyramid at Giza was finished that year, | 0:26:00 | 0:26:03 | |
and unfortunately so are your chances of winning today. | 0:26:03 | 0:26:06 | |
But history is horrible! Ty, you've got 5,451 to beat. | 0:26:06 | 0:26:11 | |
Let's see what you've got in your spheres. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:14 | |
867 AD. The Viking army was captured in York. | 0:26:14 | 0:26:19 | |
1603 AD. The death of Queen Elizabeth I. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:25 | |
This is the all-important one. Let's have a look at it. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:29 | |
1801 AD! | 0:26:29 | 0:26:32 | |
Ireland joins Great Britain and the Union Jack is created. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:36 | |
That gives you a total of 4,271, | 0:26:36 | 0:26:41 | |
which means that today's winner, with 5,451 points, | 0:26:41 | 0:26:44 | |
-is Joanne! -Yay! -Yay! | 0:26:44 | 0:26:46 | |
She goes home with our star prize - | 0:26:46 | 0:26:49 | |
bits of old historical tat picked out of the Time Sewer | 0:26:49 | 0:26:53 | |
by my flea-ridden friend here. So, what's the big prize, then? | 0:26:53 | 0:26:57 | |
Well, you've probably heard of the expression "winning by a nose". | 0:26:57 | 0:27:00 | |
Well, Joanne, you've just won...a nose! | 0:27:00 | 0:27:04 | |
-Thanks. -Yes, a Saxon nose. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:06 | |
Saxons had a system called weregild, which meant, if you injured someone, | 0:27:06 | 0:27:11 | |
chopped off their nose, for instance, you had to pay for the damage! | 0:27:11 | 0:27:14 | |
-Not me - I just found it. -Obviously. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:17 | |
Congratulations, Joanne! | 0:27:17 | 0:27:19 | |
-Joanne... -HE SIGHS | 0:27:19 | 0:27:20 | |
..you've done so well, and you've ended up with a human nose. | 0:27:20 | 0:27:24 | |
-Er... -I do apologise. But at least you get to tickle his nasal hair, | 0:27:24 | 0:27:28 | |
if you so desire. | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
It just remains for me to say thanks to our champion Joanne, | 0:27:30 | 0:27:34 | |
and also to our gallant runners-up, James and Ty. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:37 | |
And to say no thanks whatsoever to Rattus. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:39 | |
Ah, come on. You're missing me already. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:41 | |
-You've been watching Gory Games. Goodbye. -Goodbye! | 0:27:41 | 0:27:45 | |
