0:00:230:00:24

Hello and welcome to Gory Games, with me, Dave Lamb.

0:00:240:00:27

You may have heard me on Come Dine With Me.

0:00:270:00:30

And me, Rattus Rattus. You may have heard me rooting through your bins.

0:00:300:00:34

Can I thank the couple at number 17, Riverside Road,

0:00:340:00:37

for throwing out that chicken carcase? Cheers, guys!

0:00:370:00:40

This is the show where you get to test your knowledge

0:00:400:00:42

of Horrible Histories with quirky questions and gory games,

0:00:420:00:45

so before Rattus thanks anyone else for their leftovers,

0:00:450:00:49

let's meet our Horrible Historians. Introduce yourselves, please!

0:00:490:00:52

-Hi, I'm Joanne.

-Hello, Joanne!

0:00:520:00:54

-Hi, I'm James.

-Welcome, James!

0:00:540:00:57

-Hi! I'm Ty!

-To start the show off, a little warm-up game

0:00:570:01:00

of my very own - a sort of cookery challenge,

0:01:000:01:04

to see if our contestants can whip up a batch

0:01:040:01:07

of that much-loved Roman delicacy, garum sauce.

0:01:070:01:10

This bucket contains the three main ingredients,

0:01:100:01:13

-mackerel, tuna and eels.

-OK. Well, that all sounds all right.

0:01:130:01:17

HE CHOKES AND GAGS Yes, I should've said, shouldn't I?

0:01:170:01:21

The fish has to be completely rotten. HE CACKLES

0:01:210:01:24

Our contestants have to pull out the rotting fish guts

0:01:240:01:27

-and leave them to dry in the sun.

-That is disgusting!

0:01:270:01:30

-What is wrong with you?

-No, honestly! Once it's dried out,

0:01:300:01:34

garum sauce actually has quite a subtle, delicate aroma.

0:01:340:01:37

-Look! Here's some I prepared earlier.

-Really?

0:01:370:01:40

-It's subtle and delicate?

-Yeah, yeah!

0:01:400:01:42

HE SNIFFS DEEPLY Argh!

0:01:450:01:48

HE SNORTS

0:01:480:01:49

Well, it's subtle and delicate if you live down a sewer.

0:01:490:01:52

Ugh... Right!

0:01:550:01:57

Joanne, James and Ty, you're playing to win Year Spheres.

0:01:570:02:01

Each sphere contains a historical date,

0:02:010:02:03

and at the end of the show your dates will be added up,

0:02:030:02:06

with AD dates being added to your total

0:02:060:02:09

and BC dates being subtracted from it.

0:02:090:02:12

So, if these were your spheres, your total would be... Rattus?

0:02:120:02:16

-Er...six?

-No.

0:02:160:02:18

-Has it got six in it?

-No.

0:02:180:02:20

It's 735.

0:02:200:02:22

Ah, so close!

0:02:220:02:24

The person with the highest year score

0:02:240:02:26

will win a fantastic prize.

0:02:260:02:28

-Chosen by yours truly!

-All right. Maybe not a fantastic prize, then,

0:02:280:02:33

but a prize nonetheless.

0:02:330:02:35

Right! Off we go. And to find out what round one's all about,

0:02:350:02:39

it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:02:390:02:42

It's the Measly Middle Ages.

0:02:420:02:45

So, four questions on the Measly Middle Ages coming up.

0:02:450:02:48

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

0:02:480:02:51

and your four topics are...

0:02:510:02:54

Joanne, you get to pick first this round.

0:02:580:03:01

-What's it going to be?

-Ink.

0:03:010:03:03

-Ink!

-True or false -

0:03:030:03:06

monks used to make ink from squished woodlice.

0:03:060:03:09

Hmm! So, true or false.

0:03:090:03:12

Let's see your answers now, please.

0:03:120:03:14

-Oh!

-And you've all gone for false!

0:03:140:03:17

Interesting! Let's hear what the correct answer is.

0:03:170:03:21

False. But they did use wasps' eggs,

0:03:210:03:23

mixed with vinegar, gum to thicken it,

0:03:230:03:26

-and copper water for colour.

-You've all made a fantastic start.

0:03:260:03:29

It's a point each. James, it's your turn to choose a topic.

0:03:290:03:33

-I choose washing.

-Washing!

0:03:330:03:36

True or false - in the Middle Ages,

0:03:360:03:39

peasants used to wash their clothes in buckets of poo.

0:03:390:03:42

What a question that was!

0:03:420:03:44

Well, Ty and Joanne going for false. James thinks that's true.

0:03:440:03:49

Interesting! Let's hear the correct answer.

0:03:490:03:52

It's false, although they did wash their clothes in buckets of wee.

0:03:520:03:55

-SHE SNIFFS

-Mmm! Fragrant!

0:03:550:04:00

So, there you go, you see. Washing your clothes in poo

0:04:000:04:03

is probably not a very good idea.

0:04:030:04:06

Mind you, neither's washing them in wee, and they did that!

0:04:060:04:09

-Ty, your turn to choose a topic.

-Swords!

0:04:090:04:12

Bet you don't know this one.

0:04:130:04:15

Well, a clean sweep of trues! What's the answer?

0:04:220:04:25

It's true! It was massive, as tall as a man.

0:04:250:04:30

Look at the scores. Three points each for Joanne and Ty,

0:04:300:04:33

two for James, with one question left.

0:04:330:04:36

James, you can still bring this into a tiebreak.

0:04:360:04:39

The final question is on kings. Let's hear it now, please.

0:04:390:04:43

True or false - in 1216, King John lost his crown jewels.

0:04:430:04:48

They were being transported along the coast

0:04:480:04:51

when the tide came in and swept them out to sea.

0:04:510:04:54

Everybody has gone for false.

0:04:540:04:57

-What's the actual answer?

-It's true!

0:04:570:05:00

King John also died in 1216.

0:05:000:05:02

I think it's safe to say 1216 wasn't his best year.

0:05:020:05:07

Awful! Losing your jewels and dying. Terrible business.

0:05:070:05:11

I'm afraid no-one got that right, but what it does mean

0:05:110:05:14

is that Joanne and Ty have drawn that round.

0:05:140:05:18

So we're in a tiebreaker situation. Ty and Joanne,

0:05:180:05:21

fingers on your buzzers.

0:05:210:05:23

The first person to buzz in with the correct answer

0:05:230:05:26

wins the Year Sphere. Beginning with the letter H,

0:05:260:05:29

what is the name of the battle in which William the Conqueror -

0:05:290:05:33

-Joanne?

-Hastings.

0:05:330:05:35

Hastings is absolutely right, Joanne!

0:05:350:05:37

You have won the quiz. Time to choose your Year Sphere.

0:05:370:05:41

-Push-push-push-push-push! Ah!

-I hope you don't pick one

0:05:410:05:44

with a Stone Age date, with a few million minus points,

0:05:440:05:47

but I can think of two people who hope you do.

0:05:470:05:50

That's them there. OK, Joanne.

0:05:500:05:52

You've won the quiz, so you're automatically through

0:05:520:05:56

to play the Measly Middle Ages game, but will you be playing alone

0:05:560:05:59

or will everyone get a go? Let's find out.

0:05:590:06:02

It's an all-play gory game! You can hear them celebrating.

0:06:060:06:10

They want to get down there. Let's put them out of their misery.

0:06:100:06:13

Off down the Time Sewer with all of you!

0:06:130:06:15

-HE YELLS

-There goes Ty.

0:06:150:06:18

Urgh!

0:06:180:06:20

Oh, stinky!

0:06:200:06:22

At William the Conqueror's funeral, his servants stole his jewels

0:06:220:06:25

and the church burnt down. Apart from that it went smoothly.

0:06:250:06:29

It's time to play Yuckaroo!

0:06:290:06:31

You are William's servants, and your challenge

0:06:310:06:34

is to take his treasure and put it in your chest.

0:06:340:06:37

All the treasure is colour coded. You must only take your own colour.

0:06:370:06:41

Whoever collects the most pieces wins the Year Sphere.

0:06:410:06:44

And you'd better be quick, because the church is going to burn down.

0:06:440:06:48

-Your time starts...

-HORN BLARES

0:06:480:06:50

Here we go, then, with Yuckaroo.

0:06:500:06:53

Treasure needs to be colour coded. They need to steal their own bit

0:06:530:06:57

and pop it in their chest.

0:06:570:06:59

You must have done a bit of theft in your time, Rattus.

0:06:590:07:02

I don't know what you're saying, Dave. I've never stolen anything.

0:07:020:07:05

A likely story. Look, he's unscrewing that candlestick

0:07:050:07:09

as much as he can. He's doing quite well, though, Ty.

0:07:090:07:12

He's off to a pretty decent start.

0:07:120:07:14

That's two pieces he's got. Joanna also off the mark.

0:07:140:07:17

James is having problems with that crown, but he's got it off now,

0:07:170:07:21

and it's in the chest. Can I just make it clear

0:07:210:07:23

that we're not in any way encouraging stealing?

0:07:230:07:26

Even if it's from a murderous tyrant from the Middle Ages?

0:07:260:07:29

-Yes, even then.

-Oh.

0:07:290:07:31

They're all trying these things...

0:07:310:07:34

-They're finding them difficult to remove.

-They're bolted down, Dave.

0:07:340:07:38

The area I live in, if it's not bolted down, it goes.

0:07:380:07:41

Oh, and his stomach has exploded!

0:07:410:07:44

I think I may have failed to tell you

0:07:440:07:46

that his stomach exploded during the funeral,

0:07:460:07:49

but you saw it with your own eyes there. Guts absolutely everywhere.

0:07:490:07:52

Let's hope that hasn't put them off too much.

0:07:520:07:56

This game is more my cup of tea - or, as we rats say,

0:07:560:07:59

my dustbin of entrails. HE LAUGHS

0:07:590:08:01

I can't imagine what the smell is like

0:08:010:08:04

with all that entrails, guts and gore spread everywhere.

0:08:040:08:07

That doesn't come across from the pictures.

0:08:070:08:09

It must be absolutely humming in there.

0:08:090:08:12

Guts everywhere - the guts of a dead person, as well,

0:08:120:08:15

-not a live one.

-Not a live one.

-Not nice fragrant guts.

0:08:150:08:19

There's another piece going in for James.

0:08:190:08:21

He may be mounting something of a comeback.

0:08:210:08:24

Look out! The church is on fire!

0:08:240:08:26

There's smoke rising up everywhere!

0:08:260:08:28

They're going to have to finish this fast!

0:08:280:08:31

-HORN BLARES

-Time's up. That's how it's finished,

0:08:310:08:34

and that is what actually happened at William the Conqueror's funeral.

0:08:340:08:39

The church did catch fire. What a result!

0:08:390:08:42

Welcome back! Take your places. With a total of six pieces,

0:08:430:08:48

the winner was Ty! Collect your Year Sphere now.

0:08:480:08:51

So, tell me, everybody, did you enjoy Yuckaroo?

0:08:530:08:56

Yes!

0:08:560:08:57

-Who actually saw the stomach explode?

-Me.

-I did.

0:08:570:09:00

-I went, like, "Ooh!"

-You weren't expecting it?

0:09:000:09:03

-No.

-No.

-I thought it was going to pop up.

0:09:030:09:05

So the explosion was probably a good thing!

0:09:050:09:08

Over to the Gory Grid to find out what's up next.

0:09:080:09:12

It's the Vile Victorians. Good day!

0:09:120:09:15

Four questions again. Here are your four Victorian topics.

0:09:150:09:19

James, it's your turn to pick first this time.

0:09:240:09:26

Queen Victoria.

0:09:260:09:28

The question is as follows.

0:09:290:09:32

Look at that! Everyone seems very confident that it's B.

0:09:400:09:44

-Let's find out.

-The answer is...

0:09:440:09:47

You're absolutely right. Well played indeed.

0:09:490:09:52

She had a fear of bishops as a small child,

0:09:520:09:54

and she kept it into adulthood.

0:09:540:09:57

Hey! I too have an irrational fear -

0:09:570:09:59

of soap and clean water.

0:09:590:10:01

It is irrational, and it's very unfortunate for me.

0:10:010:10:04

Ty, your turn to pick a topic.

0:10:040:10:06

I'm going to go for Eccentrics.

0:10:060:10:09

Which of these would you not have found

0:10:100:10:12

inside the second Baron Rothschild's house -

0:10:120:10:15

A, snakes twined around the banisters,

0:10:150:10:18

B, a lion wearing a bow tie,

0:10:180:10:21

or C, 12 dressed monkeys having a dinner party?

0:10:210:10:24

Wow! Everybody thinks it's B. Let's find out.

0:10:250:10:28

It's B, a lion wearing a bow tie.

0:10:280:10:31

Imagine trying to put a bow tie on a lion!

0:10:310:10:34

The second Baron Rothschild was eccentric, not crazy.

0:10:340:10:38

You fancy putting a bow tie on a lion, Rat?

0:10:380:10:41

-Not really, no.

-But you've all scored two points.

0:10:410:10:44

This is a tremendous round for all of you. Joanne, pick a topic.

0:10:440:10:49

I'll pick cars.

0:10:490:10:52

How fast was the speed limit for early Victorian cars?

0:10:520:10:55

This is extraordinary! They're all in total agreement again.

0:11:020:11:06

-But are they right?

-The answer is A, four miles per hour.

0:11:060:11:10

Who could want to travel faster than that? It would be madness!

0:11:100:11:13

Victorian Top Gear can't have been very exciting.

0:11:130:11:16

The track record would have been two hours!

0:11:160:11:19

-Yeah. Victorians didn't have TV.

-I know! I was just joking.

0:11:190:11:23

-It was just a silly joke. Huh!

-You're all doing amazingly well.

0:11:230:11:26

You've got three points each. This is the last question in this round.

0:11:260:11:30

-It's about gadgets, and it's a prop question.

-A prop question!

0:11:300:11:33

I love prop questions! Oh, look!

0:11:330:11:36

That is a prop. This is a genuine Victorian contraption.

0:11:360:11:41

But what was it used for? Was it A, blowing up whoopi cushions...

0:11:410:11:45

Let's see those answers now, please!

0:11:490:11:52

It's all in total agreement again!

0:11:520:11:55

You've all gone for B, oiling bicycles.

0:11:550:11:58

On this occasion, you're all absolutely...

0:11:580:12:00

wrong!

0:12:000:12:02

RATTUS CACKLES

0:12:020:12:04

I know. Look at Ty's face. He can't believe it!

0:12:040:12:06

The answer was C.

0:12:060:12:09

-This was for filling doughnuts.

-Filling doughnuts!

0:12:090:12:11

HE CACKLES

0:12:110:12:14

What that means, of course, is that we have a three-way tie,

0:12:140:12:17

and that means fingers on your buzzers.

0:12:170:12:20

Here we go. Beginning with the letter V,

0:12:200:12:23

which queen, famous for wearing black clothes...

0:12:230:12:25

-Ty?

-Victoria.

0:12:250:12:27

Is the right answer. Well done, Ty.

0:12:270:12:30

You have just won yourself a second Year Sphere.

0:12:300:12:33

-He's quick off the mark!

-OK. Ty, as the quiz winner,

0:12:330:12:36

you're also through to play the Victorian Game.

0:12:360:12:40

But will it be just you, or will the others all play too?

0:12:400:12:43

It's a single-player brainy game!

0:12:470:12:50

Ty, get yourself down that Time Sewer. Go on, fella!

0:12:500:12:54

HE YELLS

0:12:540:12:56

Not everyone in Victorian times had a sensible name

0:12:570:13:01

like Queen Victoria. Oh, no. In fact, some had very silly names -

0:13:010:13:05

-for instance, Princess Cheese.

-RATTUS LAUGHS

0:13:050:13:08

That was a real Victorian name. She wasn't a real princess.

0:13:080:13:11

I think I'd remember if we'd had a Queen Cheese.

0:13:110:13:14

HE LAUGHS

0:13:140:13:16

-It's time to play the...

-'Name Shame Game!'

0:13:160:13:18

Seven Victorian names, but two are totally made up.

0:13:190:13:22

Your challenge, to work out which five are real.

0:13:220:13:26

Choose five names and move them to the "real" board,

0:13:260:13:29

then touch the Princess Cheese to find out how many you've got right.

0:13:290:13:33

Keep trying new combinations until you've got all five,

0:13:330:13:36

-and your time starts now!

-HORN BLARES

0:13:360:13:40

Ty is off. So, we're looking for real Victorian names.

0:13:400:13:43

He's gone for Scary Looker.

0:13:430:13:46

Oh, Minty Badger. Minty Badger getting a run-out.

0:13:460:13:49

-That's good news.

-You're not wrong, Dave!

0:13:490:13:51

And there it is. That's Farting Clack. Farting Clack.

0:13:510:13:55

I don't know about Farting Clack or Minty Badger, Dave,

0:13:550:13:58

but I did once live on a riverbank near a farting badger.

0:13:580:14:02

Too much information there, Rattus.

0:14:020:14:04

Artemis Bumwhistle there.

0:14:040:14:06

And the final one, Susan Semolina-Thrower.

0:14:060:14:09

Well, he's got one wrong.

0:14:090:14:12

John Idiot going in there, off the subs bench.

0:14:160:14:19

-'You have all five right!'

-He has done it!

0:14:190:14:22

He has won that game in extraordinary time.

0:14:220:14:26

Princess Cheese only got two hammerings.

0:14:260:14:29

RATTUS LAUGHS

0:14:310:14:33

He was right - Artemis Bumwhistle and Stupid Cupid were made up,

0:14:330:14:37

but the others, remarkably, were all genuine Victorian names.

0:14:370:14:41

-John Idiot was a real Victorian?

-Yes, he was, Rattus.

0:14:410:14:45

Do you think he had a descendant - Dave Idiot?

0:14:450:14:48

HE CACKLES THEY LAUGH

0:14:480:14:51

Just asking. Just asking.

0:14:530:14:55

Ty, tell us exactly how you managed to do that game.

0:14:550:14:58

I just knew all of them apart from that one.

0:14:580:15:00

Well, you were incredibly quick. Right! Over to the Gory Grid

0:15:000:15:04

to find out who's up next.

0:15:040:15:06

It's the Awful Egyptians.

0:15:060:15:09

And here are your four Egyptian topics.

0:15:090:15:12

And Ty, it's your turn to lead us off.

0:15:180:15:21

Toothpaste!

0:15:210:15:23

Toothpaste.

0:15:230:15:24

Here's what I want to know.

0:15:240:15:27

A, crushed bat,

0:15:300:15:32

B, liquefied snail,

0:15:320:15:34

or C, chopped mouse.

0:15:340:15:37

Let's see your answers now, please.

0:15:370:15:39

So, you've all gone for C.

0:15:390:15:42

Well, I can tell you, the answer is...

0:15:420:15:45

C! We used chopped-up mouse.

0:15:450:15:48

You should not use mice to clean your teeth.

0:15:480:15:51

They're disgusting little things, with their little tails

0:15:510:15:55

-and their strange little whiskers.

-Have you looked in a mirror lately?

0:15:550:15:58

So, that's a point each there. Well done.

0:16:000:16:04

-Joanne, it's your turn to pick a topic.

-Er, Mummies.

0:16:040:16:07

-That is a prop question.

-I like the prop questions.

0:16:070:16:10

Hello! A mummy's hand. Hello, everyone.

0:16:100:16:14

Lovely. Mummification was very popular in ancient Egypt,

0:16:140:16:18

and so many mummies were dug up in the Victorian era

0:16:180:16:21

they became used for all sorts of things.

0:16:210:16:23

But which of these was not one of them?

0:16:230:16:26

Was it A, making newspaper,

0:16:260:16:28

B, scaring birds away from fields,

0:16:280:16:31

or C, repairing cracked walls?

0:16:310:16:33

Ah! So Ty and Joanne with A,

0:16:330:16:37

James a B. The answer is...

0:16:370:16:40

B, James! The mummy's going to give you a point.

0:16:400:16:43

Mummies were not used for scaring birds away from fields,

0:16:430:16:47

but they were mulched and used as newspaper,

0:16:470:16:50

as well as filler for walls. Excellent. James,

0:16:500:16:53

-your turn to pick.

-I'm going to pick Festivals.

0:16:530:16:56

Festivals.

0:16:560:16:58

What did we pharaohs have to wear during the Heb Sed festival -

0:16:580:17:02

A, a pineapple on our head,

0:17:020:17:04

B, a wolf's tail on our backside,

0:17:040:17:07

or C, a monkey on our shoulder?

0:17:070:17:10

Three Cs. All in complete agreement. Let's see if they're all right.

0:17:110:17:15

The answer is B, a wolf's tail on our backside.

0:17:150:17:19

Let me tell you, I wasn't very happy about it.

0:17:190:17:22

-Nor was the wolf, for that matter.

-I'm not surprised.

0:17:220:17:25

So you all got that one wrong,

0:17:250:17:27

which means, as we come to the last question in the round,

0:17:270:17:30

James is in the lead. So James, if you get this right,

0:17:300:17:33

-you've won your first Year Sphere.

-Yes!

0:17:330:17:35

The remaining category is Ramesses IV.

0:17:350:17:37

When archaeologists found the mummy of Ramesses IV,

0:17:380:17:42

what was unusual about it?

0:17:420:17:44

Was it A, he was actually a woman,

0:17:440:17:47

B, he had seven fingers on one hand,

0:17:470:17:49

or C, his eyes had been replaced with onions?

0:17:490:17:53

You've all gone for C.

0:17:530:17:57

Let's hear if you're right.

0:17:570:17:59

The answer is C. His eyes had been replaced with onions.

0:17:590:18:02

Onions! Brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.

0:18:020:18:06

Onions were, of course, valuable, and sometimes the eyes were replaced

0:18:060:18:10

with valuable things. So, James, you have won yourself

0:18:100:18:14

-your first Year Sphere!

-Yeah!

0:18:140:18:17

-Pick away.

-They're shiny, they're round,

0:18:170:18:20

they come from under the ground. Year Spheres!

0:18:200:18:23

Year Spheres!

0:18:230:18:26

-No reason. Just felt like it.

-Lovely, Rattus.

0:18:260:18:28

So, James, you're through to play the Egyptian Game.

0:18:280:18:32

Will it be just you, or will everybody else be coming along?

0:18:320:18:35

It's time to find out.

0:18:350:18:37

It's an All Play brainy game!

0:18:390:18:42

It's off down the Time Sewer with all of you!

0:18:420:18:45

-There goes Ty.

-Urgh!

0:18:460:18:48

-There goes James.

-HE COUGHS

0:18:480:18:51

And there goes Joanne.

0:18:510:18:53

Now, Egyptian pharaohs liked to be buried in style,

0:18:530:18:56

and what could be more stylish than a pyramid?

0:18:560:18:59

It's time to play...

0:18:590:19:01

It took about two million heavy blocks to build a pyramid,

0:19:030:19:07

and you've just got nine light ones.

0:19:070:19:09

Your challenge, to work out which block goes where.

0:19:090:19:13

To help you, we've put one block in place. First of you to finish

0:19:130:19:17

wins the Year Sphere. So, ready, steady...

0:19:170:19:20

Get building! And they're off.

0:19:200:19:23

They've got to build a pyramid. Sounds easy, doesn't it, Rattus?

0:19:230:19:27

-Rattus? Rattus!

-Well, yes. The puzzle did come with instructions.

0:19:270:19:31

Unfortunately they were all in hieroglyphics.

0:19:310:19:34

That's not going to be an awful lot of use here.

0:19:340:19:37

So, the first pieces now beginning to go into place.

0:19:370:19:40

And it's a big piece.

0:19:400:19:42

Oh, Joanne also going in for a big piece.

0:19:420:19:45

James has started with a slightly smaller piece.

0:19:450:19:47

Isn't it interesting to see the different tactics?

0:19:470:19:50

I'm not so sure it's tactics. It's blind, wild guessing.

0:19:500:19:53

Well, yes, that's the unkind way of looking at it.

0:19:530:19:56

I like to think they're using their tactical nous here.

0:19:560:19:59

Joanne really weighing this up.

0:19:590:20:02

Look at James. He's doing extremely well here.

0:20:020:20:05

What an excellent start from James! Ty is all over the place.

0:20:050:20:08

Let's be fair. With the best will in the world,

0:20:080:20:10

you're not going to make a pyramid like that.

0:20:100:20:13

James has got that upside down at the moment.

0:20:140:20:17

Let's hope he turns it round. Yes, of course he has.

0:20:170:20:20

Ty looks as if he's doing well. I don't think he is.

0:20:220:20:24

Whereas Joanne is doing very, very nicely.

0:20:240:20:27

She has the whole ground floor in place, as it were,

0:20:270:20:31

and she's beginning to start on the first floor.

0:20:310:20:34

There's the first piece. James is not too far behind,

0:20:380:20:41

assuming the pieces he's already got down are right. I'm not sure,

0:20:410:20:45

to be honest. And they need to realise that each piece

0:20:450:20:48

will only fit on one specific place. That's the whole point.

0:20:480:20:52

Yes, one of those pieces is quite clearly wrong.

0:20:520:20:55

That's not sitting squarely on the plinth at all,

0:20:550:20:58

and I don't know what Ty's building, but it's definitely not a pyramid.

0:20:580:21:01

Joanne is getting very close to completing this pyramid, I think.

0:21:010:21:05

It's taking shape very, very nicely indeed.

0:21:050:21:08

That's another level completed. Three more pieces to go for Joanne.

0:21:080:21:13

That's another piece in place. There's a huge crack in her pyramid,

0:21:130:21:16

but we won't hold that against her. Here comes the top piece!

0:21:160:21:20

-She's about to take a sphere!

-Come on! One more!

0:21:200:21:23

-That's the one!

-Joanne!

0:21:230:21:25

-Joanne wins hands-down!

-And her hands go up in triumph.

0:21:250:21:29

What a superb pyramid that is,

0:21:290:21:31

even though it has got a massive crack in it.

0:21:310:21:34

Well done, Joanne. Collect your Year Sphere.

0:21:360:21:38

So, a quick look at the scores at this stage

0:21:380:21:41

means that Ty has three Year Spheres, Joanne has two,

0:21:410:21:44

and James has one, so everybody's in the game. That's fantastic.

0:21:440:21:47

Time now for the final round,

0:21:470:21:50

and it's over to the Gory Grid one last time

0:21:500:21:52

-to find out who we've got.

-It's the Terrible Tudors.

0:21:520:21:56

No Quirky Quiz in our final round.

0:21:560:21:58

It's straight to a big all-play Tudor endgame,

0:21:580:22:01

and it is a silly one.

0:22:010:22:03

Everybody, get back down that Time Sewer.

0:22:030:22:07

-Oh, not again!

-I know. I'm sorry, Joanne.

0:22:070:22:09

This'll be the last time, I promise.

0:22:090:22:12

THEY GROAN

0:22:120:22:14

-Now, it's no secret that Henry VIII liked his food.

-Oh, yes.

0:22:150:22:20

It's true. I can't deny it.

0:22:200:22:22

-Ho-ho-ho! Look at that!

-HIS TUMMY GURGLES

0:22:220:22:25

You see? And now he wants feeding.

0:22:250:22:27

It's time to play...

0:22:270:22:29

You have to collect pies and fling them into Henry's mouth.

0:22:310:22:34

Sounds easy! It would be, if you weren't attached to a bungee cord.

0:22:340:22:38

The person who gets the most pies in their Henry's mouth

0:22:380:22:41

in the time limit wins the Year Sphere.

0:22:410:22:44

Three, two, one...

0:22:440:22:46

It's pie time! So here we go, then,

0:22:460:22:49

with Who Ate All The Pies, and the answer will be Henry VIII,

0:22:490:22:52

because there are three of him, with their mouths wide open

0:22:520:22:55

while our plucky gamers try to run up the lane

0:22:550:22:58

on their bungee cords and hurl pies into his open mouth.

0:22:580:23:02

There's our pie man. This is his fourth appearance this season.

0:23:020:23:05

He's terrific. We're very lucky to get him.

0:23:050:23:07

So, no pies have found their mark yet. There's Ty.

0:23:070:23:11

He's already beginning to tire. That one just misses to the right.

0:23:110:23:15

Catches on the chin. One on the nose.

0:23:150:23:17

This is very exciting, but not many pies finding their mark.

0:23:170:23:20

That's right, Dave. Not many at all. We've got three Henrys there,

0:23:200:23:24

all with their mouths wide open, but not one single pie has gone through

0:23:240:23:28

-as far as I can see.

-Some varying techniques being employed,

0:23:280:23:33

Ty going with the underarm hoick,

0:23:330:23:36

and some of the others going with the classical Frisbee delivery.

0:23:360:23:39

-There's a perfect example.

-Henry's diet is more unhealthy than mine,

0:23:390:23:43

and that's saying something, I can tell you.

0:23:430:23:47

There's one gone in! Yes, Joanne has fed Henry his first pie.

0:23:480:23:51

They're not really getting many in.

0:23:540:23:57

They're not, and they're beginning to tire.

0:23:570:23:59

It's a very difficult game. I tried playing it earlier on,

0:23:590:24:02

-and failed miserably.

-As, I'm afraid, are our contestants,

0:24:020:24:06

at the moment. James scores! Joanne's got another!

0:24:060:24:09

THEY BOTH SHOUT EXCITEDLY

0:24:090:24:12

After a long period of nothing happening,

0:24:120:24:15

James and Joanne scored... Oh, and Joanne's scored again!

0:24:150:24:19

This is tremendous of Joanne.

0:24:190:24:21

But, oh, dear, me, Ty's fallen over there,

0:24:210:24:24

that bungee cord recoiling and whipping him back.

0:24:240:24:27

James, though... Look at that concentration.

0:24:290:24:33

Lovely shot. Caught him right in the eye.

0:24:330:24:35

And I think Joanne landed another one there!

0:24:350:24:38

She's way out in front now. She's surely not going to be caught.

0:24:380:24:41

-'Time's up!'

-The game is over.

0:24:420:24:45

The pie man stands with two pies that'll never be flung in anger,

0:24:450:24:49

and Joanne is our winner!

0:24:490:24:52

Back you come, gory gamers.

0:24:540:24:57

Joanne, please pick yourself another Year Sphere.

0:24:570:25:01

So, now it's time to count up those Year Spheres.

0:25:030:25:07

Remember, AD years are added to your total,

0:25:070:25:11

and BC years subtracted from it,

0:25:110:25:13

so the fact that you've only got one, James,

0:25:130:25:16

does not mean that you're out of the running.

0:25:160:25:19

Joanne, if you could open your Year Spheres first.

0:25:190:25:22

1658 AD!

0:25:230:25:26

The death of Oliver Cromwell.

0:25:260:25:28

1918 AD! The end of the First World War.

0:25:290:25:33

And the last one - 1875 AD,

0:25:330:25:38

law bans child chimney sweeps.

0:25:380:25:41

But you have got an impressive 5,451 points.

0:25:410:25:47

-RATTUS LAUGHS

-Wow! James,

0:25:470:25:49

this is going to be difficult with one sphere,

0:25:490:25:52

but let's see what you've got in there.

0:25:520:25:55

Oh, it's 2560 BC!

0:25:550:26:00

The Great Pyramid at Giza was finished that year,

0:26:000:26:03

and unfortunately so are your chances of winning today.

0:26:030:26:06

But history is horrible! Ty, you've got 5,451 to beat.

0:26:060:26:11

Let's see what you've got in your spheres.

0:26:110:26:14

867 AD. The Viking army was captured in York.

0:26:140:26:19

1603 AD. The death of Queen Elizabeth I.

0:26:210:26:25

This is the all-important one. Let's have a look at it.

0:26:250:26:29

1801 AD!

0:26:290:26:32

Ireland joins Great Britain and the Union Jack is created.

0:26:320:26:36

That gives you a total of 4,271,

0:26:360:26:41

which means that today's winner, with 5,451 points,

0:26:410:26:44

-is Joanne!

-Yay!

-Yay!

0:26:440:26:46

She goes home with our star prize -

0:26:460:26:49

bits of old historical tat picked out of the Time Sewer

0:26:490:26:53

by my flea-ridden friend here. So, what's the big prize, then?

0:26:530:26:57

Well, you've probably heard of the expression "winning by a nose".

0:26:570:27:00

Well, Joanne, you've just won...a nose!

0:27:000:27:04

-Thanks.

-Yes, a Saxon nose.

0:27:040:27:06

Saxons had a system called weregild, which meant, if you injured someone,

0:27:060:27:11

chopped off their nose, for instance, you had to pay for the damage!

0:27:110:27:14

-Not me - I just found it.

-Obviously.

0:27:140:27:17

Congratulations, Joanne!

0:27:170:27:19

-Joanne...

-HE SIGHS

0:27:190:27:20

..you've done so well, and you've ended up with a human nose.

0:27:200:27:24

-Er...

-I do apologise. But at least you get to tickle his nasal hair,

0:27:240:27:28

if you so desire.

0:27:280:27:30

It just remains for me to say thanks to our champion Joanne,

0:27:300:27:34

and also to our gallant runners-up, James and Ty.

0:27:340:27:37

And to say no thanks whatsoever to Rattus.

0:27:370:27:39

Ah, come on. You're missing me already.

0:27:390:27:41

-You've been watching Gory Games. Goodbye.

-Goodbye!
