# Horrible Histories: Gory...Games! #

0:00:210:00:24

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

0:00:240:00:27

and my able assistant...

0:00:270:00:29

Right, where is he?

0:00:290:00:31

Oh, oh, oh, sorry I'm late, Dave. I had to take a bit of a detour.

0:00:310:00:35

A crowd of autograph hunters was waiting for me.

0:00:350:00:38

-Are you sure they weren't from the BBC's pest control?

-Oh!

0:00:380:00:42

-You might be right.

-I think I might be.

0:00:420:00:44

This is the show where you get to test your knowledge

0:00:440:00:46

of Horrible Histories with quirky quiz questions

0:00:460:00:49

and gloriously gory games. Let's crack on

0:00:490:00:51

and meet our Horrible Historians.

0:00:510:00:53

Hi, I'm Lucy.

0:00:530:00:55

Hi, my name's Matty.

0:00:550:00:56

Hi, I'm Rhyanna.

0:00:560:00:58

Welcome, one and all.

0:00:580:00:59

For our little warm-up today I thought we could play...

0:00:590:01:02

-No, no, I think we've all had enough of your stupid warm-up games.

-Eh?

0:01:020:01:06

Yep. Today we start with an entirely unsuitable game of my choosing.

0:01:060:01:10

-But...

-Yep, it's the classic Victorian game of ratting

0:01:100:01:14

-where you get a vicious dog and see how many rats you can kill.

-Eh?

0:01:140:01:18

Yep, let's get on with it. Bruiser, here, boy!

0:01:180:01:20

-Come on, Bruiser. Come on, Bruiser.

-Oh, no! Not on my watch!

0:01:200:01:24

Come on, Bruiser. Come on, Bruiser.

0:01:240:01:27

HE LAUGHS

0:01:270:01:29

There he is. Do a jump, do a jump.

0:01:290:01:32

Ho-ho!

0:01:320:01:34

That is not in any way funny.

0:01:340:01:37

I beg to differ. I think it's very funny.

0:01:370:01:39

Right, Lucy, Matty and Rhyanna, you are playing to win year spheres.

0:01:390:01:43

Each year sphere contains a historical date.

0:01:430:01:46

At the end of the show, your year sphere dates will be added up,

0:01:460:01:49

with AD dates added to your total and BC dates being subtracted from it.

0:01:490:01:53

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

0:01:530:01:57

Hm? Er, more than some but less than lots?

0:01:570:02:00

735.

0:02:000:02:03

Like I said.

0:02:030:02:04

At the end of the show, the person with the highest year score

0:02:050:02:09

will win a fantastic prize, as selected by yours truly.

0:02:090:02:12

So, as you can imagine, not fantastic at all.

0:02:120:02:15

Right, let's get cracking.

0:02:150:02:17

Who's this round about? Over to the Gory Grid.

0:02:170:02:19

It's the Gorgeous Georgians.

0:02:190:02:22

Four questions on Gorgeous Georgians coming up.

0:02:220:02:26

The person who gets the most right wins the first year sphere.

0:02:260:02:29

And your four Georgian topics are...

0:02:290:02:32

Lucy, you get to go first in this round.

0:02:350:02:38

-What topic would you like to choose?

-Cheese.

0:02:380:02:41

Cheese. That is a prop question.

0:02:410:02:45

Oh! Ho-ho. Delish!

0:02:450:02:46

True or false?

0:02:460:02:48

Georgians used to eat Stilton cheese teeming with mites and maggots,

0:02:480:02:52

and used a special spoon to eat the mites and maggots as well.

0:02:520:02:55

Is that true or is that false? Let's see your answers now, please.

0:02:550:02:59

Look at that. Everybody's going for true.

0:02:590:03:02

I can tell you that it is true. Congratulations.

0:03:020:03:06

-Dave.

-What?

-Can I have the maggots?

-Help yourself.

0:03:060:03:09

There we go, a point apiece. Excellent start.

0:03:090:03:12

-Matty, it's your turn to choose a topic.

-Dentist.

0:03:120:03:15

Dentist.

0:03:150:03:16

True or false?

0:03:160:03:18

Dentists would sometimes replace rotten adults' teeth

0:03:180:03:21

with healthy teeth pulled out of a child's mouth.

0:03:210:03:23

There we go. Complete agreement once again, everyone going for true.

0:03:230:03:27

Are they all right or are they all wrong?

0:03:270:03:29

It's true. See if you can spot my one.

0:03:290:03:31

It's good, isn't it?

0:03:330:03:34

It's lovely. Excellent, well, a superb start, 100% so far.

0:03:340:03:38

-Rhyanna, your turn to choose a topic.

-Posh people, please.

0:03:380:03:41

Posh people.

0:03:410:03:43

OK, here we go. Good luck.

0:03:430:03:45

And everyone in total agreement once again.

0:03:550:03:57

Let's see if they're right.

0:03:570:03:59

OK, in fact it's...

0:03:590:04:01

false.

0:04:010:04:02

The lady was allowed to go to the toilet,

0:04:020:04:05

but she had to ask permission from the King, then wee into a jug

0:04:050:04:09

held between her knees that was hidden under her dress.

0:04:090:04:14

Ha-ha-ha! That is 100% accu-rat.

0:04:140:04:18

I just hope the lady was!

0:04:180:04:20

HE LAUGHS

0:04:200:04:22

Oh, get on... Get on with the show. I'm going to laugh myself silly.

0:04:220:04:26

Try and hold it in.

0:04:260:04:27

Well done. No-one got that one right. Bad luck.

0:04:270:04:30

There's only one question left in this round.

0:04:300:04:33

It's neck and neck. Your final question is on Lord Wellington.

0:04:330:04:36

True or false?

0:04:360:04:38

Lord Wellington encouraged all his officers to use umbrellas

0:04:380:04:41

on the battlefield to protect themselves from the rain.

0:04:410:04:44

Look at this, everybody agreeing once again.

0:04:440:04:47

Everybody's gone for false. What's the answer?

0:04:470:04:51

It's false. Wellington banned umbrellas. He didn't want officers

0:04:510:04:54

to make themselves ridiculous in the eyes of the enemy.

0:04:540:04:58

I imagine Wellington was happy for them to wear Wellington boots,

0:04:580:05:01

seeing as they're named after him, eh? Ha!

0:05:010:05:03

So, at the end of that round, it's a three-way tie,

0:05:030:05:07

which means fingers on buzzers.

0:05:070:05:10

Beginning with the letter S,

0:05:100:05:12

the Georgian snack consisting of a piece of meat held between

0:05:120:05:15

two pieces of bread was named after the fourth Earl of what?

0:05:150:05:18

Matty?

0:05:180:05:19

-Sandwich?

-Sandwich is the correct answer. Well done, Matty.

0:05:190:05:22

You have won the quiz. Choose your year sphere from our trolley wally.

0:05:220:05:26

Ugh! Push, push, push, push, push.

0:05:260:05:29

I hate this trolley before anyone's won one. It's so heavy.

0:05:290:05:32

Matty, come and choose your year sphere, any one you like.

0:05:320:05:36

Be warned. One sphere could contain a Stone Age date

0:05:360:05:39

worth a few million minus points.

0:05:390:05:41

Push, push, push, push, push, bye!

0:05:410:05:44

So winning the quiz means that Matty is automatically through to play

0:05:440:05:48

the Georgian Game, but will he be alone or will everyone get to play?

0:05:480:05:52

Let's find out.

0:05:520:05:53

It's a Single Play Silly Game so that means, Matty,

0:05:570:06:00

it's off down the time sewer on your own.

0:06:000:06:03

Urgh, disgusting.

0:06:030:06:05

It is disgusting, I'm afraid.

0:06:050:06:07

Picture the scene. It's 21st October 1805

0:06:080:06:12

and the greatest naval hero in British history, Lord Admiral Nelson,

0:06:120:06:15

is leading the Royal Navy against

0:06:150:06:17

the combined powers of the French and Spanish Navy.

0:06:170:06:20

It's time to play:

0:06:200:06:23

You are a British Navy gunner.

0:06:230:06:25

Your mission - to load, aim and fire your cannon at the enemy ships.

0:06:250:06:29

You score a point for every enemy ship you shoot

0:06:290:06:32

and lose a point for every British ship you hit.

0:06:320:06:34

Score six points in the time limit to win your year sphere

0:06:340:06:37

and battle begins now.

0:06:370:06:39

So here goes Matty, then, on the Battle Of Trafalgar.

0:06:390:06:43

Let's hope he doesn't get seasick, Rattus,

0:06:430:06:46

because that platform wobbles about

0:06:460:06:48

to simulate a ship's movement at sea.

0:06:480:06:50

Well, he's made a very good start.

0:06:500:06:52

He's already taken out one of the enemy ships.

0:06:520:06:55

He needs six, of course, to win himself the year sphere.

0:06:550:06:58

That's right, Dave.

0:06:580:07:00

And there's another one.

0:07:000:07:01

He's very good at this. He may have done this before.

0:07:010:07:04

Two in a row. Amazing.

0:07:040:07:05

Look at that loading technique.

0:07:050:07:07

And there's a third!

0:07:070:07:09

A third Spanish galleon bites the dust

0:07:090:07:12

or whatever the sea equivalent of dust is.

0:07:120:07:15

Plankton? Bites the plankton.

0:07:150:07:17

He's winged that one as well!

0:07:170:07:20

Here comes the seagull, Rattus. What do you think about that?

0:07:200:07:23

I love the seagull, Dave.

0:07:230:07:24

He's a very nice seagull. Let's hope he doesn't get horribly destroyed.

0:07:240:07:28

He's missed the seagull and all the ships with that one.

0:07:280:07:31

So, having made a very good start, he's gone slightly off the boil.

0:07:310:07:35

Possibly something to do with the smoke of battle.

0:07:350:07:38

-30 seconds remaining.

-Oh, another one!

0:07:380:07:40

I think he's only got one more to get.

0:07:400:07:42

I think he only needs one more to win this challenge

0:07:420:07:45

and he's already there. He's loaded up again.

0:07:450:07:48

Is this going to be the shot that wins it? It is!

0:07:480:07:50

Yeah! He's done it!

0:07:500:07:52

-Matty wins the Battle Of Trafalgar all on his own.

-Remarkable.

0:07:520:07:55

Welcome back, Matty. Help yourself to another year sphere. Excellent.

0:07:550:07:59

Is that a good one? Is that a bad one? We just don't know.

0:08:000:08:03

So, Matty, have you ever shot at an enemy ship before?

0:08:030:08:07

-You seem to be quite good at it.

-No.

0:08:070:08:09

You've never actually fired on an enemy vessel yourself?

0:08:090:08:12

-Yet.

-Yet? Yeah, yet.

0:08:120:08:14

There could be a career there for you. It was a superb effort.

0:08:140:08:17

It's time for round two.

0:08:170:08:19

To find out who's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:08:190:08:22

It's the Measly Middle Ages.

0:08:220:08:25

Four questions again.

0:08:250:08:26

Here are your all-important Middle Ages topics:

0:08:260:08:30

Matty, it's your turn to pick first this time. What do you fancy?

0:08:320:08:36

-Execution.

-Execution.

0:08:360:08:38

What happened at the execution of the Earl of Lancaster in 1322?

0:08:380:08:43

(A) There was an earthquake.

0:08:430:08:45

(B) There was a snowball fight.

0:08:450:08:48

(C) The executioner forgot to bring his axe.

0:08:480:08:51

Let's see those answers.

0:08:510:08:53

They have agreed again. This is almost like they're psychic!

0:08:550:08:58

Everyone's gone for (C). Let's see what the answer is.

0:08:580:09:01

The answer is (B).

0:09:010:09:02

At the earl's execution, there was a snowball fight.

0:09:020:09:06

So not a psychic thing, then! They all got it wrong.

0:09:060:09:09

-Ha-ha!

-So no points to be awarded there.

0:09:090:09:12

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

-Weird.

0:09:120:09:15

Weird.

0:09:150:09:16

What was unusual about Charles VI of France?

0:09:160:09:20

Did he think he was (A) a horse,

0:09:200:09:23

(B) made of glass, or

0:09:230:09:25

(C) an alien?

0:09:250:09:27

And they have disagreed for the first time today.

0:09:280:09:32

Lucy and Matty still agree.

0:09:320:09:33

They've gone with (A). Rhyanna has struck out on her own with (B).

0:09:330:09:37

Let's see who's right.

0:09:370:09:38

The answer is (B).

0:09:380:09:40

Poor Charles thought he was made of glass.

0:09:400:09:42

He must have been shattered. Ha-ha!

0:09:420:09:45

It's like a play on words, Dave!

0:09:450:09:48

-Sounds like she's stolen your joke book.

-Huh.

0:09:480:09:50

Rhyanna, well done. Striding out on your own has helped.

0:09:500:09:53

You've picked up a point.

0:09:530:09:55

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

-Monks.

0:09:550:09:58

Monks.

0:09:580:09:59

Roger Bacon was a Middle Ages monk who liked to experiment with what?

0:09:590:10:03

Lucy and Matty still yet to disagree on anything,

0:10:080:10:12

both gone for C. Rhyanna on her own with A.

0:10:120:10:15

The answer is (A), gunpowder.

0:10:150:10:18

The Chinese invented it, but Brother Bacon improved it

0:10:180:10:21

and made it popular in Europe.

0:10:210:10:23

The Church didn't approve and he was thrown into prison for ten years.

0:10:230:10:27

Naughty monk-y. Ha!

0:10:270:10:30

Yeah. So, Rhyanna, ever since you split from Matty and Lucy,

0:10:300:10:33

you've started doing very well.

0:10:330:10:36

Two points, superb! And there's only one question left in this round,

0:10:360:10:39

so you can't be caught, so we're not going to ask it.

0:10:390:10:42

-Well done. You've won a year sphere.

-Yay!

-Go and get it.

0:10:420:10:45

Rhyanna, as quiz winner you're also through to play the Middle Ages Game,

0:10:470:10:51

but will it be just you or will the others get to play, too?

0:10:510:10:54

Let's find out.

0:10:540:10:56

It's an All Play Gory Game,

0:11:000:11:02

so that means it's off down the time sewer with the lot of you.

0:11:020:11:05

Lead the way, Rhyanna.

0:11:050:11:07

HE COUGHS

0:11:070:11:09

I don't think they like it in there.

0:11:120:11:15

William the Conqueror certainly liked a bit of gore,

0:11:170:11:20

so he probably would have enjoyed his own funeral.

0:11:200:11:22

His servants stole all his jewels,

0:11:220:11:25

his body was so bloated it exploded and the church caught fire.

0:11:250:11:28

It's time to play:

0:11:280:11:30

You are William's servants and your challenge is

0:11:300:11:33

to take his treasure and put it in your chest.

0:11:330:11:36

All the treasure is colour-coded and you must only take your own colour.

0:11:360:11:39

Whoever collects the most pieces wins the year sphere.

0:11:390:11:42

Oh, half way through, William's stomach is going to explode.

0:11:420:11:46

Oh, I never tire of this game.

0:11:460:11:48

And be quick cos the church is going to burn down too.

0:11:480:11:51

Time starts now.

0:11:510:11:52

HORN SOUNDS

0:11:520:11:54

Here we go, then, with Yuckaroo.

0:11:540:11:55

The contestants leap into action...

0:11:550:11:58

..quite slowly.

0:12:000:12:02

There we go. Oh, there we go. There's the first bit of treasure.

0:12:020:12:05

Matty stealing a little goblet. And Rhyanna, look.

0:12:050:12:08

She's got a goblet as well. Well played, Rhyanna, two goblets.

0:12:080:12:12

William the Conqueror won't really miss them much, though.

0:12:120:12:15

Ooh, a matching pair there.

0:12:150:12:17

Dave, I have to say, I hope at my funeral no-one steals my treasures.

0:12:170:12:21

There's little risk of that, Rattus,

0:12:210:12:23

given that all your treasures are maggot-infested carcases.

0:12:230:12:26

I don't know why you're looking at me like that, it's definitely the case.

0:12:260:12:29

There's two more goblets going in there.

0:12:290:12:31

One for Rhyanna, one for Lucy.

0:12:310:12:33

They've just stolen goblets so far. What's Matty got here?

0:12:330:12:37

It's another goblet and is that another one? Was it Rhyanna?

0:12:370:12:40

Seven goblets! Are they going to steal anything else, I wonder?

0:12:400:12:43

We see Lucy working away on the crown there,

0:12:430:12:45

which has to be the most valuable bit of treasure,

0:12:450:12:48

but she wins no extra points for that.

0:12:480:12:50

They're all taking a very long time and they're chatting, Rattus.

0:12:500:12:54

I'm not sure that's the right way to play.

0:12:540:12:56

You need to be concentrating, thinking about what you're doing,

0:12:560:13:00

not having a chinwag.

0:13:000:13:01

Oh, whoa!

0:13:010:13:02

That's woken them up! William the Conqueror's stomach's exploded

0:13:030:13:07

and it's covered them all in its unspeakable contents.

0:13:070:13:10

You have to say, it's not sped them up any.

0:13:100:13:13

These are the slowest thieves I've ever seen.

0:13:130:13:15

They're going, "Ooh, I want this. I might steal it...eventually."

0:13:150:13:19

-That's disgusting!

-Come on, pull it off.

0:13:190:13:22

30 seconds remaining.

0:13:220:13:23

Oh, a plate at last. Well, have a good look at it, Rhyanna, first!

0:13:230:13:27

There it goes, it's in. And the church is now on fire,

0:13:270:13:30

so they're going to have to get out of there.

0:13:300:13:32

They're going to have to get out of there,

0:13:320:13:35

and get out of there quicker than they've done their stealing

0:13:350:13:38

because this has been some very, very slow theft.

0:13:380:13:42

If anything, Rattus, they're getting slower.

0:13:420:13:45

They're slowing down as the end approaches.

0:13:450:13:48

This is extraordinary! I've never seen anything like it.

0:13:480:13:51

And there's the hooter. The game is over.

0:13:510:13:54

Look at that. It's a three-way tie.

0:13:540:13:57

Back behind your podiums, please.

0:13:580:14:01

Everybody got four bits of treasure.

0:14:010:14:04

You agree on everything

0:14:040:14:06

and now you're scoring exactly the same points as each other.

0:14:060:14:09

What it does mean is that you get a year sphere each.

0:14:090:14:12

Lucy, if you'd like to help yourself first.

0:14:120:14:14

Matty, you go and grab one as well.

0:14:160:14:18

And Rhyanna also.

0:14:200:14:21

It's raining year spheres here today. Extraordinary.

0:14:230:14:28

Did you know? When William besieged Alencon in 1048,

0:14:280:14:30

the townsfolk mocked him as the son of a leather tanner,

0:14:300:14:33

so he took 34 prisoners, chopped off their hands and feet

0:14:330:14:36

and threw the severed limbs over the walls.

0:14:360:14:38

What's rude about calling someone the son of a leather tanner?

0:14:380:14:41

Well, leather tanners used to make leather by dipping it in poo

0:14:410:14:45

and it's an insult because they used to spend so much time in poo.

0:14:450:14:48

What's so rude about calling someone the son of a leather tanner?

0:14:480:14:52

Over his head.

0:14:520:14:54

Over to the Gory Grid now. What's up next?

0:14:540:14:56

It's the Frightful First World War.

0:14:560:15:00

Four questions as always. Here are your four First World War topics...

0:15:000:15:04

Rhyanna, it's your turn to lead us off this time. What's it going to be?

0:15:080:15:12

Water.

0:15:120:15:14

-Water. That is a prop question.

-Ooh, ooh, good, cos I'm thirsty.

0:15:140:15:18

Go on then, Rattus.

0:15:180:15:19

-All right, that's enough.

-Thank you.

0:15:210:15:24

-You've got a little bit on your nose there.

-Thank you.

0:15:240:15:27

There we go. True or false?

0:15:270:15:29

Water was sometimes in short supply in the trenches so soldiers resorted

0:15:290:15:33

to drinking water collected in shell holes or holes made by bombs.

0:15:330:15:38

Let's see those answers now, please.

0:15:380:15:41

They're all agreeing with each other again.

0:15:410:15:44

I can tell you that you are all absolutely right. It's true.

0:15:440:15:47

And the grimy water was a common cause of diarrhoea.

0:15:470:15:51

Oh, oh...

0:15:510:15:53

Gangway!

0:15:530:15:55

Thank heavens he left.

0:15:550:15:57

Excellent.

0:15:570:15:59

Well, that's a point each. Bang, bang, three points.

0:15:590:16:02

Lucy, your turn to pick a topic.

0:16:020:16:03

-Frostbite, please.

-Frostbite.

0:16:030:16:06

True or false?

0:16:060:16:08

A recommended World War One cure for frostbite

0:16:080:16:11

was to rub the frostbitten area with freezing snow.

0:16:110:16:15

And they're totally agreeing with each other again.

0:16:150:16:19

This is very excellent. Let's hear the answer.

0:16:190:16:21

It's true. Although, in my experience,

0:16:210:16:25

rubbing the frozen bit with freezing snow didn't help much.

0:16:250:16:28

Well, that's probably because it does make it worse.

0:16:280:16:31

-Rattus, better?

-Er...

0:16:310:16:33

-Matty, your turn to pick a topic.

-Planes.

0:16:330:16:36

Planes. That is a question from Rattus-Rattus.

0:16:360:16:39

I thank you.

0:16:390:16:40

True or false?

0:16:400:16:42

A fight between two planes was called a catfight.

0:16:420:16:47

A little bit of disagreement this time.

0:16:480:16:51

Matty and Rhyanna are going for false. Lucy has gone for true.

0:16:510:16:55

Rattus, what's the answer?

0:16:550:16:57

It's false.

0:16:570:16:58

It was a dogfight. Ha!

0:16:580:17:00

Actually, I'm all in favour of catfights and dogfights.

0:17:000:17:03

Gives them less time to rat-fight.

0:17:030:17:05

I can understand that.

0:17:050:17:07

OK, on to the final question of this round. It's about goldfish.

0:17:070:17:11

True or false?

0:17:110:17:13

Goldfish were banned from battle areas because water was precious.

0:17:130:17:18

Everybody back in total agreement once again.

0:17:200:17:22

Everybody's gone for true. Let's hear what the answer is.

0:17:220:17:26

It's false. Goldfish were very useful.

0:17:260:17:29

After a gas attack, we rinsed out our gas masks with water

0:17:290:17:33

and popped in a goldfish.

0:17:330:17:35

If it died, the gas mask was still poisonous

0:17:350:17:37

and needed to be washed again.

0:17:370:17:39

This meant you lived to see another day, er, unlike the goldfish.

0:17:390:17:43

So, that's the end of the round and, Lucy, unfortunately,

0:17:430:17:46

you're history for now on this round. Matty and Rhyanna,

0:17:460:17:49

it's time to put your fingers on your buzzers

0:17:490:17:52

because we're in another tie-break situation.

0:17:520:17:54

Beginning with the letter T,

0:17:540:17:56

what heavily armoured vehicle was first used in World War One?

0:17:560:18:00

Matty?

0:18:000:18:01

-Tank.

-Tank is absolutely right. Well done, Matty,

0:18:010:18:03

Help yourself to another year sphere.

0:18:030:18:06

Matty has four, Rhyanna has two, Lucy has one,

0:18:070:18:10

but because there's lots of BC years in those spheres,

0:18:100:18:13

it's quite possible that Lucy's in the lead.

0:18:130:18:16

So, Matty, you're through to play the World War One game

0:18:160:18:20

but is it just you or will everyone else play, too? Let's find out.

0:18:200:18:23

It's a Single Player Brainy Game, so get your thinking cap on

0:18:260:18:30

and get down that time sewer.

0:18:300:18:32

-Eugh!

-And he was gone.

0:18:340:18:36

It's time to play:

0:18:380:18:39

Your challenge is to work out which five of these kit items

0:18:410:18:45

soldiers in the trenches would have had,

0:18:450:18:47

and which two they would not have had.

0:18:470:18:49

Choose five, move them to the kit board,

0:18:490:18:51

then touch the stinky army boot to find out how many you've got right.

0:18:510:18:55

Be warned, soldiers used to soften their boots with wee.

0:18:550:18:58

Keep trying new combinations until you've got all five

0:18:580:19:01

but be quick, you're against the clock. Your time starts now.

0:19:010:19:05

So here goes Matty, then, with crucial kit

0:19:050:19:08

and first off he's gone for newspapers.

0:19:080:19:10

Absolutely crucial. You have to know what's happening in the world.

0:19:100:19:14

There's the second one going up there, a gas mask.

0:19:140:19:17

I think we can safely assume he's right with that.

0:19:170:19:19

In goes shovel as his third choice.

0:19:190:19:22

He seems very confident. I think he seems to know what he's doing here.

0:19:220:19:25

He certainly does. Matty is certainly a quiet young man.

0:19:250:19:29

A God-fearing man. He's put a Bible up there as well.

0:19:290:19:32

There goes sleeping bag as his fifth choice.

0:19:320:19:34

He touches the old smelly boot.

0:19:340:19:36

You have four right.

0:19:360:19:37

He's got four right.

0:19:370:19:39

The sleeping bag's come off.

0:19:390:19:41

The chocolate's going straight back on and I think he's done it, Rattus.

0:19:410:19:45

You have all five right.

0:19:450:19:46

-He's done it.

-Done it with chocolate.

0:19:460:19:48

Yeah, First World War, fifth year sphere.

0:19:480:19:51

Matty, here he comes again. Grab another year sphere.

0:19:530:19:56

Well done. You're quite right, sunglasses were expensive,

0:19:560:20:00

so ordinary soldiers wouldn't have had them

0:20:000:20:03

and only officers had sleeping bags. So there we are.

0:20:030:20:06

That is what we call a full house.

0:20:060:20:09

You now have no more room left on your podium,

0:20:090:20:12

so we could be in a bit of trouble in a minute.

0:20:120:20:15

Time for the final round. Over to the Gory Grid to find out what we've got.

0:20:150:20:19

It's the Rotten Romans.

0:20:190:20:21

No quirky quiz in our final round.

0:20:210:20:24

It's straight to our big All Play Roman End Game.

0:20:240:20:27

Everybody, get down that time sewer.

0:20:270:20:30

See ya.

0:20:330:20:35

-Bye.

-Eugh.

0:20:350:20:36

Emperor Vitellius was famous for eating like an absolute pig,

0:20:400:20:44

the kind of pig that even other pigs think eats too much.

0:20:440:20:47

HE LAUGHS AND SNORTS

0:20:470:20:50

Ooh, made a noise like a pig. You're very funny. Hee-hee.

0:20:500:20:54

It's time to play:

0:20:540:20:56

Horrible Historians, your challenge is to collect

0:20:560:20:59

Emperor Vitellius' favourite pheasant brain and flamingo tongue pies,

0:20:590:21:03

along with fish and grapes, and fling them into his mouth.

0:21:030:21:07

The person who gets the most pies or fish or grapes

0:21:070:21:10

into Vitellius' gob within the time limit wins the year sphere.

0:21:100:21:13

But be warned, half way through, a servant is going to spill

0:21:130:21:17

a cauldron of garum sauce made out of rotten fish guts.

0:21:170:21:20

Oh, scrummy!

0:21:200:21:22

So things will get mighty slippy out there.

0:21:220:21:25

Ready, steady, fling those pies.

0:21:250:21:27

And off they go to fling their pies, fish and grapes

0:21:270:21:31

into Vitellius' open gob.

0:21:310:21:33

It's an excellent start from Lucy and Matty, already scoring,

0:21:330:21:37

and Matty gets a second point.

0:21:370:21:38

A rip-roaring start from Matty.

0:21:380:21:41

Rhyanna on the scoreboard as well.

0:21:410:21:43

Some grapes entering the mouth there from both of them.

0:21:430:21:46

From all of them.

0:21:460:21:49

Oh, they're scoring nicely here, very nicely indeed.

0:21:490:21:51

Rhyanna's got a great smile on her face.

0:21:510:21:54

She's clearly enjoying herself out there.

0:21:540:21:56

And Matty hurls that fish in and takes a two-point lead,

0:21:560:21:59

opening up a nice little gap. Could be useful later on.

0:21:590:22:02

That was a rather haphazard fling, that fish.

0:22:020:22:04

End over end, disappointingly short.

0:22:040:22:07

It's very tight at the top, though, very tight indeed.

0:22:070:22:11

They're moving up and down their lanes very easily.

0:22:110:22:13

Once the garum sauce has been dropped on them,

0:22:130:22:16

they won't move like that.

0:22:160:22:18

I think it will change.

0:22:180:22:19

It will become a damp game.

0:22:190:22:21

I'll tell you who hates the garum sauce.

0:22:210:22:23

Keithus Maximus there at the end.

0:22:230:22:25

He hates it because, at the end of the game, he has to clear it up.

0:22:250:22:29

He didn't join the Roman Catering Supervision Corps to clear that up.

0:22:290:22:33

There he is. He's an excellent catering supervisor.

0:22:330:22:36

Been working for Vitellius for five years now.

0:22:360:22:39

He says he wants to travel in the future.

0:22:390:22:42

Well, he may not get the chance if this carries on.

0:22:420:22:45

Oh, there's the garum sauce!

0:22:450:22:47

Oh, dear me! It's landed right on top of Matty.

0:22:470:22:50

Let's hope he hasn't drowned because that was...

0:22:500:22:52

-There goes Rhyanna!

-Rhyanna's over.

0:22:520:22:55

And we thought this might happen. As soon as the lane gets soaking wet,

0:22:550:22:59

it's very difficult to stand up.

0:22:590:23:01

Poor old Matty may not stand up again throughout the whole of this game.

0:23:010:23:05

He may not actually get back to his feet.

0:23:050:23:08

And Keithus Maximus is powerless.

0:23:080:23:10

All he can do is look on and possibly throw in

0:23:100:23:13

a life ring if it gets terrible. Matty literally can't stand up.

0:23:130:23:17

Rhyanna's the same and there's Lucy.

0:23:170:23:20

Will she make it up the whole length of the lane whilst the garum sauce...

0:23:200:23:23

I've never seen this before. She's going to make it!

0:23:230:23:26

She gets another shot in. Extraordinary.

0:23:260:23:29

It didn't go in but an excellent effort

0:23:290:23:31

-to get up the lane. Matty won't be troubling us again.

-Time's up.

0:23:310:23:34

Matty and Lucy have a year sphere each

0:23:340:23:37

and Keithus Maximus is going to be here till midnight.

0:23:370:23:40

Back behind your podiums.

0:23:400:23:42

I'm glad to see you've tidied yourselves up a little bit.

0:23:420:23:45

That's good, excellent. Well, that went well.

0:23:450:23:48

-How did you feel that went, Rhyanna?

-My poor hair.

0:23:480:23:51

Your poor hair. It's only rotten fish guts.

0:23:510:23:54

-Only?!

-It's good. It's moisturising.

0:23:540:23:57

-For you, maybe.

-For Rattus it is, yes.

0:23:570:23:59

-Lucy, how did you find it out there?

-Slippy.

0:23:590:24:02

Slippy once the guts had fallen, but before that it was all right.

0:24:020:24:06

-Yeah.

-Very good.

0:24:060:24:07

Matty, how did you find it? You spent quite a lot of time on the ground

0:24:070:24:10

after the garum sauce had dropped down.

0:24:100:24:13

-You didn't really stand up very much after that.

-No.

0:24:130:24:15

OK, Lucy and Matty, you've scored six each so you both win a year sphere.

0:24:150:24:19

Lucy, if you'd like to help yourself.

0:24:190:24:21

Well done.

0:24:230:24:24

Matty, pick a year sphere and bring it over to me.

0:24:240:24:27

I will look after it until it's time to open it.

0:24:270:24:31

I promise not to look at it.

0:24:310:24:33

There we go, it's sat there.

0:24:330:24:35

Let's look at those year spheres.

0:24:350:24:37

Lucy, what's in your first one?

0:24:370:24:39

1479 BC, I'm afraid.

0:24:390:24:42

Egyptian Queen Hatshepsut came to the throne that year.

0:24:420:24:46

Oh, it's 2184 BC.

0:24:480:24:51

Egyptian King Pepi II died aged 100 that year.

0:24:510:24:54

I'm afraid that means you've ended up with a score of minus 3,663.

0:24:540:25:00

Matty, that's what you've got to beat.

0:25:000:25:02

Let's have a look at your first one.

0:25:020:25:05

78 AD, Romans conquered Wales that year.

0:25:050:25:10

Oh, it's 377 BC.

0:25:100:25:13

It's bad but it's not disastrous.

0:25:130:25:15

The death of Hippocrates, the father of medicine.

0:25:150:25:18

978 AD.

0:25:180:25:20

Ethelred the Unready became King of England that year.

0:25:200:25:24

Oh, it's 4000 BC.

0:25:240:25:27

Stone Age man started farming in Britain then

0:25:270:25:29

but you could still catch it up, I think.

0:25:290:25:33

Let's look at that last one.

0:25:330:25:34

1789 AD.

0:25:340:25:36

The French Revolution started.

0:25:360:25:38

And your final year sphere, I shall bring over to you.

0:25:380:25:41

If you could open it and keep it held in your hand.

0:25:410:25:44

1845 AD. The Great Potato Famine in Ireland.

0:25:440:25:49

What a range of little numbers you have there.

0:25:490:25:52

You have ended up with a score of plus 313. You are in the lead.

0:25:520:25:56

Now, Rhyanna, you can win it here with these two.

0:25:560:25:59

You've only got 313 to beat.

0:25:590:26:02

Let's have a look at your first one.

0:26:020:26:03

1642 AD. The start of the English Civil War.

0:26:050:26:09

It's all on the turn of this last sphere. What have you got there?

0:26:090:26:12

It's 1 million BC!

0:26:120:26:14

-Oh!

-Oh, no!

0:26:140:26:16

Round about then, Stone Age man first came to Britain.

0:26:160:26:21

So you have ended up with a total of minus 998,358,

0:26:210:26:27

which means that, Matty, with a total of 313 points, you are our winner

0:26:270:26:33

and you will be taking home our star prize,

0:26:330:26:36

which you'll want to display proudly,

0:26:360:26:39

in a locked box under the floorboards in a dark room because

0:26:390:26:42

all of our prizes are plucked from the time sewer

0:26:420:26:45

by my flea-bitten friend here. So what have you got for us, Rattus?

0:26:450:26:48

Dave, prepare to be amazed

0:26:480:26:51

because today I have a personal possession of perhaps

0:26:510:26:54

the country's greatest monarch ever to have lived, Queen Victoria.

0:26:540:26:58

Really?

0:26:580:27:00

Prepare to marvel at the majesty and gasp at the glory

0:27:000:27:05

of her really massive pants!

0:27:050:27:08

Would you look at those bulging bloomers?!

0:27:090:27:12

RATTUS LAUGHS

0:27:120:27:15

She had a 50-inch waist. 50-inch waist, you know!

0:27:150:27:19

Rattus, it is not dignified to laugh at a monarch's underwear.

0:27:190:27:23

They are pretty funny though, aren't they?

0:27:230:27:26

Anyway, con-rat-ulations, Matty.

0:27:260:27:29

Well done, Matty, there you go.

0:27:290:27:30

-Thank you.

-Some massive pants for you there, vaguely from history.

0:27:300:27:35

Well, it just remains for me to say thanks to Matty, to Rhyanna

0:27:350:27:39

and to Lucy, and no thanks whatsoever to Rattus.

0:27:390:27:41

Oh, ho-ho! Pleasure as always, Dave.

0:27:410:27:44

You've been watching Gory Games. Goodbye.

0:27:440:27:47

# Was that show messy enough for you?

0:27:470:27:50

# Or would you have preferred a little more poo?

0:27:500:27:53

# Have you had your fill of blood, guts and gore?

0:27:530:27:56

# Or have we left you still wanting more?

0:27:560:27:59

# Well, keep watching

0:27:590:28:01

# We'll be back again

0:28:010:28:03

# With Horrible Histories: Gory Games

0:28:030:28:06

# Horrible Histories: Gory...Games! #
