0:00:02 > 0:00:05# If mummies, rats and fleas ain't your thing
0:00:05 > 0:00:08# And you don't like the sound of an exploding king
0:00:08 > 0:00:10# If you're easily scared and don't laugh at poo
0:00:10 > 0:00:13# You'd better turn off, this show ain't for you
0:00:13 > 0:00:15# Still watching?
0:00:15 > 0:00:17# Then let's test your brains

0:00:21 > 0:00:24# Horrible histories Gory Games. #
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Hello and welcome to Gory Games with me, Dave Lamb.
0:00:27 > 0:00:31And me, Rattus Rattus, the rat so great they named him twice.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34- Yeah. I don't think that's why you were named twice.- You're jealous.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37Of your repetitive name? Don't be ridiculous.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40You are SOOOOO jealous.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43No, I'm not jealous at all.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45SOOOOOOO jealous!
0:00:45 > 0:00:49I'm not jealous all right and now you've ruined the start of the show
0:00:49 > 0:00:51so we're going to have to do it all over again, Rattus.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55Hello and welcome to Gory Games with Rattus Rattus and me,
0:00:55 > 0:00:56Dave Dave Lamb Lamb!
0:00:56 > 0:00:57- Oi!- Shut up!
0:00:57 > 0:01:00A man so great they named me twice.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03This is the show where you test your knowledge of Horrible Histories
0:01:03 > 0:01:07by taking part in the goriest games known to man or, indeed, to rat.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10Right then. Let's meet today's Horrible Historians.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12- I'm Nehaal.- I'm George.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14- It's Lydia.- Excellent.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18- Dave.- What?- Dave.- What?- Dave.- WHAT? - Dave.- Hm.- Barbara.- Barbara?!
0:01:18 > 0:01:23- Dave.- What?- Time to get this show on the road with a little warm up game
0:01:23 > 0:01:24all of my very own.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27- Yeah, sorry, we haven't discussed this, have we?- No need to, Dave.
0:01:27 > 0:01:28I know exactly what I'm doing.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31It's time to play Greased Goose Grab.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Bring on the goose!
0:01:32 > 0:01:34DRUM ROLL
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Greased Goose?
0:01:36 > 0:01:37Chillax!
0:01:37 > 0:01:39This is a traditional game from the Georgian era
0:01:39 > 0:01:42which was very popular at fairs.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44- Oh.- A goose was hung by its feet from a tree
0:01:44 > 0:01:47and riders galloped underneath trying to pull its head off.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49- Pull it's head off?!- Don't worry.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51The grease makes it really hard to do.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54No, no way. Time out all right, everyone.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56You might get away with that in Georgian Britain, Rattus,
0:01:56 > 0:01:58but we are not doing it today.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Let's just get this goose down. I'll do it myself if I have to.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05Oh! For heaven's sake, I'm covered in grease now.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08- You see, it's hard isn't it? - Oh, I'm going to need a towel here.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12And can someone please get rid of that goose and the rat?
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Ooooh!
0:02:14 > 0:02:19Right. Nehaal, George, Lydia you are playing to win Year Spheres.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22Each Year Sphere contains a historical date and at the end
0:02:22 > 0:02:26of the show your Year Sphere dates will be added together with AD dates
0:02:26 > 0:02:32being ADded to your total, and BC dates being suBtraCted from it.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34So, if these were your Year Spheres your total would be, Rattus?
0:02:34 > 0:02:38- Er, to how many decimal places? - Whole numbers will be fine.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Gotcha. Er, 7.492.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45- I give up with you. It's 735. - Like I said.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48At the end of the show, the person with the highest year score
0:02:48 > 0:02:51will win a brilliant historical prize.
0:02:51 > 0:02:52One that I picked out myself.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55And, believe me, it really is amazing
0:02:55 > 0:02:58that anyone could think that it's a decent prize.
0:02:58 > 0:02:59So mean, so mean.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Right, let's get cracking
0:03:01 > 0:03:04and to find out what this round's about it's over to the Gory Grid.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07It's the Frightful First World War.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11Four questions on the Frightful First World War coming up
0:03:11 > 0:03:14and your four First World War topics are...
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Nehaal, it's your turn to pick first in this round. What will it be?
0:03:21 > 0:03:22German inventions, please.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25German inventions. Let's hear that question.
0:03:25 > 0:03:31On January 15th, 1915, what German invention was used
0:03:31 > 0:03:33to attack Great Yarmouth in East Anglia?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Show me your answers now.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Everybody in total agreement.
0:03:43 > 0:03:44They all think it's B.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Are they all right or are they all wrong?
0:03:46 > 0:03:49The answer is B, a Zeppelin.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52A massive great inflatable airship
0:03:52 > 0:03:55that was the first air raid in British history.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59Yes, Zeppelins were huge and filled with gas which unfortunately meant
0:03:59 > 0:04:01they were very, very easy targets.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03George, it's your turn to pick a topic.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07- I think I'll go potatoes. - Potatoes.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10That is a prop question.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Ah, look at that lovely potato.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Which of these was given as a nickname to potatoes
0:04:16 > 0:04:18in World War One?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Let's see your answers now, please.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27OK. George and Lydia going for A.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Nehaal on her own with C.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Well, I'm afraid none of you are right. The answer is B.
0:04:32 > 0:04:37Soldiers called potatoes Bombardier, which came from the French word
0:04:37 > 0:04:40for potatoes, pomme de terre, which sounds a little bit like Bombardier.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44Although, to be fair, not much like it.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47If you're not having that mouldy potato, can I have it?
0:04:47 > 0:04:51Yeah, knock yourself out, Rattus. Lydia, your turn to pick a topic.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Can I please pick Slang?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Slang. Let's hear that question.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59What was trenches slang for being tired?
0:05:05 > 0:05:06Let's see those answers now please.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Nehaal and George agreeing on C.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Lydia, this time, out on her own with B.
0:05:11 > 0:05:12Let's find out who's right.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16The answer is C. If you were tired you were chin strapped.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Soldiers were usually so tired it was said they were only held upright
0:05:19 > 0:05:23by the strap on the helmets lifting their chins.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26So, one question left in this round. Everything still to play for.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Let's hear the final question.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33How did the French Army get many of its soldiers to the trenches?
0:05:41 > 0:05:43So, is the answer A? Is it B? Or is it C?
0:05:45 > 0:05:46OK. The girls agreeing on C.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49George has gone for A, all on his own.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Let's find out who, if anyone, is right.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55The answer is A! In lots of taxis.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56It's, er, right at the barbed wire
0:05:56 > 0:06:01and left at the unexploded bomb please, cabbie.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Can you imagine? Ah!
0:06:03 > 0:06:05So, George, you have won the quiz.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08It's time to choose your Year Sphere from our trolley wolley.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Hm. Push, push, push, push, push, push, push.
0:06:10 > 0:06:17Oh, there you go, George. Come and choose your Year Sphere.
0:06:17 > 0:06:18- That one?- Yep.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Push, push, push, push, push, push, push. Might be a good one.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Yes, that could be a good one or bad one.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26We won't find out until the end of the show.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29So winning the quiz means that George is automatically through
0:06:29 > 0:06:30to play the World War One game
0:06:30 > 0:06:34but will he be alone or will everyone else get to play?
0:06:34 > 0:06:35Let's find out.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41It's a single player silly game.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44So, off you go, soldier. Get down that Time Sewer with you.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Wooh!
0:06:47 > 0:06:48Ooh, head first.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51There were thousands of soldiers fighting in the trenches
0:06:51 > 0:06:56of World War One and for every soldier there were several rats.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59But whilst rats had greater numbers, the soldiers had spades.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Yes, it's time to play...
0:07:03 > 0:07:06- This is wrong. Just so wrong! - He, he, he!
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Whack 15 rats with your spade within the time limit
0:07:09 > 0:07:12to win the Year Sphere and your time starts now.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14HORN SOUNDS
0:07:14 > 0:07:17George attempts to Vanquish Vile Vermin. There's one with a hat on.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Well, Rattus, you don't see that every day, do you?
0:07:20 > 0:07:23There was a degree of profiteering to be had on this game.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25I sold more hard hats for a pound a piece.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Well, I hope you can live with yourself.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Been selling white flags as well, have you, Rattus?
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Dear oh dear, disgraceful.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36I have a feeling that that surrender is not going to help him. Ooh!
0:07:36 > 0:07:40- He got a very serious smash on the head anyway.- Poor Uncle Whipmeyer.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44Poor Uncle Whipmeyer, exactly. Well, look. He's a little bit...
0:07:44 > 0:07:48He's not doing brilliantly well, George. He's doing well enough
0:07:48 > 0:07:52but there are quite a lot of rats popping out and escaping.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54His hair's in his eyes. That's the problem, Dave.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56He could do with a good trim.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58That's a very military attitude you're showing, Rattus,
0:07:58 > 0:08:02but I suppose it's a appropriate seeing as this is World War One
0:08:02 > 0:08:03we're playing in here.
0:08:03 > 0:08:08Dave, I think the least we could do is give the rats spades.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12They're getting spades, Rattus. Square in the face!
0:08:12 > 0:08:15RATTUS SOBS
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Don't talk, Rattus. Don't talk. I'll do the commentary.
0:08:17 > 0:08:22Well, he's got nine, George. He's got nine so far. He needs 15.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25And he does miss a few, George,
0:08:25 > 0:08:29but when he does hit them, boy, do they stay hit like that one there.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31He won't be troubling us again.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34There's a lot of jiggery-pokery here. A lot of fast action.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Rats emerging and disappearing again. He just needs two more.
0:08:37 > 0:08:38One more required.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39BUZZER SOUNDS
0:08:39 > 0:08:41He's run out of time.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44George has run out of time. That one's not going to count
0:08:44 > 0:08:48but it means Uncle Whipmeyer spends the night in field hospital.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52Welcome back, George. Bad luck. You are quite aggressive with a spade.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- Have you ever hit a rat with a spade before?- No.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Would you like to hit Rattus here with a spade?- Definitely.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00It's all right. It's all right.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03I won't let him near you. I won't let him near you.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06On to Round 2 and to find out what's up next it's over to the Gory Grid.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09It's the Rotten Romans.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Here are your four Roman topics.
0:09:16 > 0:09:20- George, it's you to pick first. What's it going to be?- Gladiators.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Let's hear the question.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26What was unusual about the Gladiators called the Andabatae?
0:09:26 > 0:09:31A - They fought with their arms tied behind their backs?
0:09:31 > 0:09:33B - They fought blindfolded?
0:09:33 > 0:09:35C - They were children?
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Let's see your answers now please.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38Oh, look at that.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41A complete spread of different answers.
0:09:41 > 0:09:42Let's find out who's right.
0:09:42 > 0:09:44The answer is B.
0:09:44 > 0:09:49They fought blindfolded which was really funny for the spectators.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Not so funny for the gladiators.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53No, I could imagine!
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Lydia, it's your turn to pick a topic. What's it going to be?
0:09:55 > 0:09:59- Nero, please. - Nero. Let's hear that question.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04Emperor Nero had a massive Egyptian slave called Polyfargus
0:10:04 > 0:10:06but what was unusual about him?
0:10:06 > 0:10:10A - He ate absolutely anything
0:10:10 > 0:10:12B - He had three arms, or
0:10:12 > 0:10:15C - He ate absolutely nothing.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Let's see those answers.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21Again, total disagreement. Let's find out who's right.
0:10:21 > 0:10:26The answer is A - Polyfargus ate absolutely anything
0:10:26 > 0:10:31and everything including a live human. Urgh!
0:10:31 > 0:10:36- Crikey. Suddenly the rat's diet seems positively pleasant.- Oi!
0:10:36 > 0:10:38OK, Nehaal, it's your turn to pick a topic.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42- Can I have roads, please? - Roads. You certainly can.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45Here comes your question, ready or not.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59Let's see your answers now, please. The girls agreeing this time on B.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02George on his own with C. Who, if anyone, is right?
0:11:02 > 0:11:04The answer is
0:11:04 > 0:11:07C - on the left.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10Interesting. OK. So, one point apiece.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11Well played, everybody.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15One question left in this round and it's a question on Wings.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19- And it's a question from Mr Rattus Rattus.- I thank you.
0:11:19 > 0:11:24Evil Emperor Domitian liked to pull the wings off which creature?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Let's have a look at your answers right now.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36So George and Lydia agreeing with B. Nehaal with A. Who's right, Rattus?
0:11:36 > 0:11:39It's George and Lydia with B.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Yes, flies.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Well, at the end of that round,
0:11:43 > 0:11:45George and Lydia, you go into tie-break question.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Fingers on buzzers.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Beginning with the letter R,
0:11:49 > 0:11:52what was the capital city of the Ancient Roman Empire?
0:11:52 > 0:11:53George.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56- Rome. - Rome is absolutely right, George.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59A big exhale from Lydia who knew that one as well
0:11:59 > 0:12:01but George collects another Year Sphere.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Help yourself, George.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07OK, George, you are through to play the Roman game
0:12:07 > 0:12:11but will he be playing alone or will he be joined by the others?
0:12:11 > 0:12:12Let's find out.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19It's an All Play Gory Game
0:12:19 > 0:12:22so off down the Time Sewer with the lot of you!
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Lead the way, Lydia.
0:12:24 > 0:12:25Waah!
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Wooh!
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- Oh, it stinks! - It certainly does, Nehaal.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36When it came to wars, Romans didn't like to lose
0:12:36 > 0:12:40so they employed some of the most brutal battle tactics ever.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43It's time to play...
0:12:43 > 0:12:47Yes, if Romans wanted to get into an enemy fortress they would use
0:12:47 > 0:12:50catapults to fire all sorts of awful things such as heavy rocks,
0:12:50 > 0:12:53hives of stinging bees and even the severed heads of dead enemies.
0:12:53 > 0:12:54Nice touch.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58You must fire as many missiles into your fortress target as possible.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02The person who gets the most in the time limit wins the Year Sphere.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06So catapults at the ready. In three, two, one!
0:13:06 > 0:13:07HORN SOUNDS
0:13:07 > 0:13:10So, here we go then with Savage Siege
0:13:10 > 0:13:13and you notice straight away that Lydia's gone for the beehive.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15The other two for decapitated heads.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18Who's going to land with that first blow? No one, quite honestly.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20So we learnt nothing, nothing at all.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22I did once stick my nose in a beehive once.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Won't be doing that again, Dave!
0:13:24 > 0:13:27You shouldn't have done it in the first place, quite frankly, Rattus.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Very, very dangerous practice, that. Nose in the old beehive there.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Very lucky to escape a very, very badly swollen nose.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Still, on with the game and Nehaal's back in it.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40- Lovely stuff. - Oh! And that one bounced right off.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Yeah. A very low trajectory on that one, wasn't it?
0:13:43 > 0:13:46She really gave it some welly. She's doing it again look. Wa ha ho!
0:13:46 > 0:13:48She really is firing them, firing them hard,
0:13:48 > 0:13:50and George grabs his first beehive.
0:13:50 > 0:13:54Lovely to see the beehive going in it. Underused, I feel.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- First head there.- Yeah, first head there for George. Lovely.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00Nehaal also on two at the end there. She's doing nicely.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04George is really into his stride now. He's just landed a rock.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06He's gone into the lead. That's tremendous shooting.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08A word about these rocks.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- They're lighter than they look, aren't they, Rattus?- Certainly are.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14They're a specially designed lightweight boulder
0:14:14 > 0:14:16for international use.
0:14:16 > 0:14:17Yeah, they have been passed by
0:14:17 > 0:14:21the International Savage Siege Federation or the ISSF.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25- They are regulation weight and size. There's another rock.- Oh!
0:14:25 > 0:14:28Landing beautifully round the rim there of the basket.
0:14:28 > 0:14:32This is looking very, very good for Lydia all of a sudden.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34She's suddenly spurted ahead.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38She really would have made a very good Roman soldier, wouldn't she?
0:14:38 > 0:14:39She certainly would.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41George has fired one into Lydia's basket there.
0:14:41 > 0:14:46It won't count but could be crucial for George as time is running out.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50There's Lydia. Fires one over the top but I think time's run out.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52George though, the one away. It's not enough.
0:14:52 > 0:14:53BUZZER SOUNDS
0:14:53 > 0:14:56There it is, it's all over. Lydia, give us a nod if you've won it.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Bang!
0:14:58 > 0:15:03- Excellent Savage Siege. Lydia, have you done that before?- No.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- You look very good at it. - Thank you.- Which ones did you like?
0:15:06 > 0:15:10The heads cos there was more of them so I got more used to them.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12So, Lydia, help yourself to a Year Sphere.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17Another Roman Siege tactic was to build giant wooden towers on wheels
0:15:17 > 0:15:18that had ladders inside them.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21They'd wheel these towers up to the fortress walls,
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Roman soldiers would climb up the inside
0:15:23 > 0:15:25and jump out onto the enemy's battlements.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28- Well, a bit like an early elevator. - Well, kind of.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31But, rather than taking you up to menswear and the cafe,
0:15:31 > 0:15:34they'd take you up to violent bloodshed and possible death.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37- I think I'll give that shop a miss. - So will I.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Over to the Gory Grid to find out what's up next.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43It's the Awful Egyptians.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45And here are your all important Egyptian topics.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53So, Lydia, it's your turn to pick a topic first this time.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Can I please have Pharaohs, please?
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Pharaohs. You can indeed.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03That is a question from my esteemed colleague, Mr Rattus Rattus.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05Esteemed colleague!
0:16:05 > 0:16:07He's after something.
0:16:07 > 0:16:12True or false? Ramasses II had a very spotty face.
0:16:12 > 0:16:13Well, that was a quick question.
0:16:13 > 0:16:17Let's see you answers now, please. Well, look at that.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20George and Nehaal going for false. Lydia going for true.
0:16:20 > 0:16:21Rattus, who's right?
0:16:21 > 0:16:26George, Nehaal, I'm afraid you're wrong cos it's true!
0:16:26 > 0:16:30Archaeologists found his tomb, unwrapped his mummy
0:16:30 > 0:16:32and could tell that he had a spotty face.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34I was a spotty teenager.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37Fortunately, you couldn't see it under all this fur.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Ha ha ha ha ha!
0:16:39 > 0:16:43- I'll shut up.- Nehaal, it's your turn to pick a topic.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45I'd like Egyptian Gods, please.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Egyptian Gods. Let's hear that question.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50True or false?
0:16:50 > 0:16:54We believed Tar was the god of all things in the world.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57He made them exist just by speaking their names.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59So, is that true or false?
0:17:00 > 0:17:03George and Nehaal agreeing with each other again on false.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Lydia on her own with true. Let's see who's right.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09- It's true. - Ooh, what a neat trick, eh?
0:17:09 > 0:17:13I wonder if I can make things exist just by speaking their names.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Pile of rotting animal guts! Pile of rotting animal guts!
0:17:17 > 0:17:20No, no joy.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23- George, it's your turn to pick a topic.- Houses.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Houses. Let's hear the question.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27True or false?
0:17:27 > 0:17:30Most ancient Egyptians lived in houses made of stone bricks.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33So, is that true or false? OK.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37The girls are going for false. George with true. What's the answer?
0:17:37 > 0:17:40It's false. Most Egyptians lived in houses made of mud bricks
0:17:40 > 0:17:42baked hard by the hot sun.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46Me? I lived in a palace. I mean, mud hut, as if? Get real!
0:17:47 > 0:17:49So, no need for the last question.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Lydia, you've already won the round
0:17:51 > 0:17:54and that means you get to collect another Year Sphere.
0:17:54 > 0:17:58Lydia, as the quiz winner, you're also through to the Egyptian Game
0:17:58 > 0:18:01but will it be just you or will the others get to play too?
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Let's find out.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10It's a Single Player Scary Game
0:18:10 > 0:18:13which means you have to go down the sewer all on your own, Lydia.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14Good luck.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16- Bye.- Bye.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19I hope she's all right in there.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23The goriest bit of the mummification process involved removing all
0:18:23 > 0:18:26the body's organs so guess which bit of the mummification process
0:18:26 > 0:18:29we're basing this next game on?
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Yep, it's time to play...
0:18:32 > 0:18:36Yes, whoever mummified this Pharaoh forgot to remove some organs
0:18:36 > 0:18:38and you've got to sort out the mess.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Your challenge is to remove the stomach, liver, intestines and lungs
0:18:42 > 0:18:44and put them in the correct canopic jars.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47The brain needs to be yanked out of the nose and binned
0:18:47 > 0:18:50but the heart must be left inside the body.
0:18:50 > 0:18:51Got that? Good.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Just don't let your time run out if you want to win a Year Sphere.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56In three, two, one...
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Mummify Me!
0:18:58 > 0:19:03So here we are, deep within a pyramid about to play Mummify Me.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06Lydia dons goggles which wouldn't have been around at the time.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09That's a modern thing. We've had to introduce the safety goggle here
0:19:09 > 0:19:13because there's a lot of spattering as we're about to find out.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17There she goes, undoing the bandages and going in for her first organ
0:19:17 > 0:19:20and oh dear, oh dear, it's gungy!
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Oh, it's a bit squelchy, it's a bit slimy
0:19:22 > 0:19:24and that looks to me like a top of the liver.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26- Oh, yeah, that it is. - That's the liver.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28The liver is out. Now, which canopic jar?
0:19:28 > 0:19:30That's what she has to decide now.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32She matches it up to the hieroglyphic.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Very good, very good, very methodical
0:19:34 > 0:19:36but, it all takes up time, doesn't it, Rattus?
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Certainly does take up time.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Every single second that you're breathing takes up time.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43- That's the tragedy of life. - Absolutely. There's the stomach.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Now which canopic jar?
0:19:45 > 0:19:47She's once again circling round the coffin,
0:19:47 > 0:19:49although the plinth I suppose you'd call it.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52That's gone safely in. What else will she find?
0:19:52 > 0:19:54I think she's left the lungs behind.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57I don't want to worry you, Rattus, but she's left the lungs in there.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00Yes, Dave, she's moved down to the stomach there
0:20:00 > 0:20:02and she's found the intestines, she's pulling them out.
0:20:02 > 0:20:07Oh my goodness me. I mean, I've seen some horrible things in my time
0:20:07 > 0:20:11but that really does rank at least in the top five.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Look at the amount of guts there.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17She seemed to put her hand in there for a sort of wash off!
0:20:17 > 0:20:18I think she lost her watch.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22I don't know what's happened there. She needs to retrieve that quickly.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24We don't want a mummy with a watch inside it.
0:20:24 > 0:20:2730 seconds left. She needs to get a shift on.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Now this bit is particularly upsetting.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33If you're squeamish I'd look away now because that is going in there.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37It's gone right into the brain and here comes a bit of the brain.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40The stringy bit of the brain as it unravels inside the skull.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Which part of the brain is that, Dave? I'm not sure.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45I think it's a bit of the frontal lobe that's come unravelled
0:20:45 > 0:20:47and she's dragging it round the floor
0:20:47 > 0:20:48and she's going to run out of time!
0:20:48 > 0:20:49HORN SOUNDS
0:20:49 > 0:20:52She needs to put that in the bin but she can't find a bin.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54It was at the front of the pyramid all along.
0:20:54 > 0:20:59She left the lungs inside so it's not really worked out for Lydia.
0:21:00 > 0:21:04Welcome back, Lydia. Welcome back. Emerging from the smoke.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08Did you know it was traditional for a trainee embalmer to be
0:21:08 > 0:21:11chased up and down the streets being whipped by all the local people?
0:21:11 > 0:21:12They were punishing him in advance
0:21:12 > 0:21:16for the horrible things he'd do to their bodies when they died.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18It's like when I washed my dirty feet in your coffee
0:21:18 > 0:21:21to get you back for stealing my socks.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24- What? I never stole your socks. - Well, no, but you might do one day.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27Oh for heaven's sake.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Time for the final round, thank goodness.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Over to the Gory Grid one last time to find out what we've got.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35It's the Vicious Vikings.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38So, no quirky quiz in our final round.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41It's straight to our big All Play Viking End Game
0:21:41 > 0:21:43and it's a scary one.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46So, everyone, get back down that Time Sewer.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48- Lead 'em off Lydia.- Bye!- Bye.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50- Go on, George.- Wooh!
0:21:50 > 0:21:52- Off you go now.- Wee!- Wahoo!
0:21:52 > 0:21:56The Vikings liked nothing more than a good fight against enemy warriors,
0:21:56 > 0:22:00except, perhaps, a thoroughly one-sided fight against monks.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02It's time to play...
0:22:03 > 0:22:05You are defenceless monks.
0:22:05 > 0:22:10Your only hope of survival is that the attacking Vikings won't find you
0:22:10 > 0:22:13in your Monastery so best not step on a squeaky floorboard.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15Your challenge is to find the one squeak-free path.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Every time you step on a sinking squeaky wooden panel,
0:22:18 > 0:22:20you'll be sent back to the start.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23At the end of the path are two doors. Behind one is freedom.
0:22:23 > 0:22:27Behind the other is GRRAAAAAGGHH!!
0:22:29 > 0:22:31I'm portraying a Viking.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33Find him and you have to start all over again.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35The first person to escape wins the Year Sphere.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38Ready, steady, shh!
0:22:38 > 0:22:40So here we go.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42They're looking for the one squeak-free path
0:22:42 > 0:22:44and they didn't find it there, Rattus.
0:22:44 > 0:22:49There were squeaks all over place like someone trod on a bag of mice.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Dave, I've got a lot in common with Vikings.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55We've both got whiskers and furry faces.
0:22:55 > 0:22:56And you both stink.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00And George heads back to the start then. Nehaal as well.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03Here is Lydia attempting to find... Oh! And she's just gone.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07She was doing very nicely. This is a very difficult game, Rattus.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10It's all down to memory, Dave, and also good listening
0:23:10 > 0:23:12because it's very tricky this game because of the creaking.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15Everyone else's boards are creaking. Who knows who's creaking?
0:23:15 > 0:23:18The giveaway is that your floorboard will sink slightly
0:23:18 > 0:23:22if it's a creaker and, look at that, he's right at the end here.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26Why's he going back? It wasn't sinking!
0:23:26 > 0:23:29I think George has just disciplined himself for no reason.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31He chose poorly, Dave.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Well, it was very, very public spirited of him.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36He was being very, very decent and sportsmanlike but,
0:23:36 > 0:23:41unfortunately, he seems to have cheated himself out of a position.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44This could be George's moment. This could be it.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45Oh no!
0:23:45 > 0:23:49All he's got to do though now is remember that path
0:23:49 > 0:23:50and he's going to be home.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Oh, he's not remembered it already. And now here he comes again.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57No, he's completely gone to pieces. Lydia, what's she going to do here?
0:23:57 > 0:23:59- Is she going to find a solid board? - She's done it!
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Now, is she going to find freedom here or a nasty Viking?
0:24:02 > 0:24:06- A Viking will send her back, remember.- GRRRAAGGH!
0:24:06 > 0:24:08All the way back to the start
0:24:08 > 0:24:10and that has maybe opened the door for Nehaal.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12Look how close she is! She's right up towards the other path.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Oh it's gone wrong for her. George can hear her but he's forgotten.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Lydia, we've seen how much trouble George has had remembering his path.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21Can Lydia remember her path from earlier?
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Can she remember under pressure? She's doing extremely well.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27She's got two panels left to go, just the one left! A formality now!
0:24:27 > 0:24:29She just needs to open the door! She's had it.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32- Lydia's the winner!- Lydia's done it and what a celebration.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36It's a classic and it's tremendous to see.
0:24:37 > 0:24:38Very, very well played all of you.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Lydia, go and get yourself another Year Sphere.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43You did extremely well.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Did you know monasteries were full of books
0:24:46 > 0:24:47and Vikings liked to steal them?
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Yeah. Not because of their love of literature. Oh, no.
0:24:50 > 0:24:55- Most Vikings couldn't read.- No, but books were very rare in those days
0:24:55 > 0:24:59and the covers were often decorated with bronze, silver and gold.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03Gold! So Vikings really did judge a book by it's cover?
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Well said.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08Three for Lydia, two for George, none for Nehaal
0:25:08 > 0:25:10but because of all the BC year totals
0:25:10 > 0:25:12you could still win this with nought so don't worry.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15It's time to count up those Year Spheres and, remember,
0:25:15 > 0:25:18AD years are added to your total
0:25:18 > 0:25:21and BC years are subtracted from it.
0:25:21 > 0:25:22Best of luck.
0:25:22 > 0:25:27Nehaal, now, at a glance, I am going to say that your score is nought.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30George, let's open up your first Year Sphere.
0:25:32 > 0:25:341588 AD.
0:25:34 > 0:25:38The Spanish Armada was destroyed. You've done well to start off with.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Let's have a look at that crucial second one.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Oh dear! 1.5 million BC.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48Stone Age Man first used fire around then.
0:25:48 > 0:25:55You have got a score of minus 1,498,412.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58That puts you massively in the lead, Nehaal.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Lydia, what's going to happen here? Let's look at your first sphere.
0:26:02 > 0:26:06110,000 BC!
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Neanderthals first came to Britain around about then.
0:26:09 > 0:26:13There's no coming back from this, Lydia, but let's have a look anyway.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Oh no!
0:26:16 > 0:26:18It's 8,500 BC.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Britain's oldest house in Yorkshire dates back to then.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23Rattus has passed out.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26It's all going wrong. Let's look at that third sphere.
