0:00:03 > 0:00:06You are unbelievable!

0:00:06 > 0:00:09I mean, what more do I have to do?

0:00:09 > 0:00:12Oh, I'm sorry, Dave. I can't help myself.

0:00:12 > 0:00:14You're so selfish!

0:00:14 > 0:00:17Just get such powerful cravings!

0:00:17 > 0:00:19You don't know what it's like to be a rat.

0:00:19 > 0:00:21And you don't know what it's like to be a human.

0:00:21 > 0:00:24You should try putting yourself in my shoes, for once.

0:00:24 > 0:00:25Oh. I already have.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30HE SNIFFS Oh!

0:00:54 > 0:00:56# Horrible Histories Gory...

0:00:57 > 0:00:59# ..Games! #

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Hello and welcome to Gory Games.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04Yes, the only game show on television

0:01:04 > 0:01:06that's presented by a human and a rodent.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08And there's a very good reason for that.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12Yeah, adult humans are notoriously difficult to work with.

0:01:12 > 0:01:16Not quite what I meant. Let's meet today's Horrible Historians.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19Hi, my name is Leon and I'm from Bridlington.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Hello, I'm Ellen and I'm from County Down.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Hi, I'm Katherine and I'm from Hampshire.

0:01:31 > 0:01:35Welcome, everybody. Right, you lot are playing to win Year Spheres.

0:01:35 > 0:01:38The person with the highest year score at the end of the show

0:01:38 > 0:01:42will win a putrid prize, as selected by our resident rodent.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46Dave wouldn't know true quality if it splatted him in the face.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49I might, you know! Time to crack on with Round One.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52Let's find out what it's about by going over to the Gory Grid.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58It's the Awful Egyptians.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00And your four Egyptian topics are...

0:02:07 > 0:02:10So, Leon, it's your turn to pick first this time. What will you have?

0:02:10 > 0:02:13- Please can I have Cures? - You certainly can.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16What was the cure for sore throats in ancient Egypt?

0:02:24 > 0:02:26Show me your answers, please.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Look at that, the girls agreeing on C.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30Leon thinks it's A. What's the answer, please?

0:02:30 > 0:02:33The answer is C.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Hot donkey wee was a cure for sore throats.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42- SHE GULPS - Eugh! Eugh! Ah!

0:02:42 > 0:02:45Now, all I need is a cure for bad breath. Blargh!

0:02:45 > 0:02:50Well, that's a point apiece for Ellen and Katherine. Good start.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52- Ellen, your turn to pick. - Could I have Cleopatra, please?

0:02:52 > 0:02:54You certainly can.

0:02:54 > 0:02:57When out sea fishing, Roman general Mark Antony

0:02:57 > 0:02:59tried to impress Cleopatra.

0:02:59 > 0:03:03He sneakily paid some fishermen to do what?

0:03:03 > 0:03:05A - hold a shark for him to spear,

0:03:05 > 0:03:07B - dress up as mermen,

0:03:07 > 0:03:10C - put fish on his hooks?

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Show me your answers now, please.

0:03:12 > 0:03:16Again, the girls in agreement, Leon thinks it's C. Let's find out.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19The answer is C.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21Mark Antony paid the fishermen

0:03:21 > 0:03:24to dive underwater and put fish that had already been caught

0:03:24 > 0:03:26onto his hooks.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29So, Leon, a point for you, everyone level pegging.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31Katherine, it's your turn to pick.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33- Can I have Demons, please? - You certainly can.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37- Unfortunately, that is a question from Rattus Rattus.- Hmm? Oh!

0:03:37 > 0:03:42What did ancient Egyptians use to lure demons out of the body?

0:03:44 > 0:03:45HE CHUCKLES

0:03:47 > 0:03:49HE CHUCKLES

0:03:51 > 0:03:52Show me now!

0:03:53 > 0:03:56OK, it's spelt out "bab," which I find quite amusing.

0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Let's find out what the answer is. Rattus?- The answer is...

0:04:02 > 0:04:04HE LAUGHS

0:04:04 > 0:04:08They put poo up your bottom to lure the demons out of your body.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11- HE LAUGHS - Yeah, it's true, Dave.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13They thought the little demons were attracted to poop.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15And I know one little demon who certainly is.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19Well done, Ellen. That is a point for you.

0:04:19 > 0:04:23There is one category left in this round, and it is Apis Bull.

0:04:24 > 0:04:28We ancient Egyptians had a sacred bull called the Apis bull,

0:04:28 > 0:04:31who we believed could tell the future.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35What would we do when the bull reached its 28th birthday?

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Show me your answers, please.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46Leon thinks it's C, Ellen and Katherine think it's B.

0:04:46 > 0:04:47What's the answer?

0:04:47 > 0:04:49The answer is C.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51We drowned the bull.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53Bet it didn't see that coming.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55Well, no, indeed. Congratulations, Leon.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58That is an extra point for you, and at the end of the round,

0:04:58 > 0:05:01we can see that we have a tie-breaker situation!

0:05:03 > 0:05:06OK, Katherine. Just for now, you are history.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Leon and Ellen, as soon as you think you know the answer,

0:05:09 > 0:05:10you can buzz in.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13Beginning with the letter H, what sticky substance

0:05:13 > 0:05:16did the Egyptians cover their slaves in to attract flies?

0:05:18 > 0:05:19- Leon?- Honey.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Honey is right, Leon. Congratulations!

0:05:21 > 0:05:23You have won the quiz.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26So, it's time for you to choose your Year Sphere,

0:05:26 > 0:05:29which means it's also time for me to say...

0:05:29 > 0:05:33ECHOING: All hail the Potty Pyramid!

0:05:35 > 0:05:38- Help yourself, Leon! - Yes, choose well, Gory Gamer.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41Indeed, because AD dates will be added to your total,

0:05:41 > 0:05:45but BC dates, of course, will be subtracted from it.

0:05:45 > 0:05:46There it is!

0:05:46 > 0:05:49Oh, one of the quickest dabs I've ever seen!

0:05:49 > 0:05:51It was a lightning dab. Do it again, Leon.

0:05:51 > 0:05:52Oh, that was fast!

0:05:52 > 0:05:54What a dab that was.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56The first Year Sphere is on the podium,

0:05:56 > 0:05:58we'll find out what's in there later.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Now, winning the Egyptian quiz means that Leon is automatically

0:06:01 > 0:06:03through to play the Egyptian game, but will he be alone

0:06:03 > 0:06:06or will the others get to play, too? Let's find out, shall we?

0:06:08 > 0:06:12Oh, it's a Single Player. Leon, are you ready to play?

0:06:12 > 0:06:14- Maybe.- Maybe? I'm going to take that as a yes.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Get down that Time Sewer, please.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20- Oh, Rattus, couldn't you have waited?- I don't know what he means!

0:06:20 > 0:06:24Back in Egyptian times, the famous tomb of Tutankhamen

0:06:24 > 0:06:27was never looted. But good news, you can do it now!

0:06:27 > 0:06:29It's time to play...

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Your challenge is simple - break through the wall of the tomb

0:06:34 > 0:06:37and find the loot. You've got four items to find.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40If you can place each item on the right plinth

0:06:40 > 0:06:43within the time limit, well, you've won yourself a Year Sphere.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45In three, two, one...

0:06:45 > 0:06:47HORN BLOWS

0:06:47 > 0:06:50So, Leon dives straight for a loose block there

0:06:50 > 0:06:52and pushes it aside as if it were made of foam.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55- Which it definitely isn't. - It definitely isn't.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Four items of treasure to find, then.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59He searches the mummy, now he's into the guts.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02And he's got one! That looks like the bracelet, Rattus.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04- Certainly does.- He can only get one at a time,

0:07:04 > 0:07:06so he's back through the wall.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09He pops the bracelet on the plinth.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Back into the treasure room now.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13I'd like to be buried in a tomb full of treasure.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16- You're talking about a cesspit, aren't you?- I am indeed.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18We're witnessing some first-class rummaging here, Rattus.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21It's very impressive, Dave. Well, for a human.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23That's rude, Rattus.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25Humans rummage very nicely, thank you very much.

0:07:25 > 0:07:29Oh! Treasure number two there, that's the leopard head.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31It's a tight squeeze, with the leopard head in his hands.

0:07:31 > 0:07:34He's thrown it on the floor! That's put a dent in it.

0:07:34 > 0:07:35Two more left to find now.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39Tomb builders often made collapsing stairways

0:07:39 > 0:07:40to protect the tomb from robbers.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Well, either that or they were just rubbish builders.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Well, I suppose it could have been that, yes.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Nothing in that chest, by the look of it.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49He's up against the clock, remember.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50There's the third item!

0:07:50 > 0:07:52He's got three,

0:07:52 > 0:07:55and now he's walking on his hands like some sort of gymnast!

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Come on, Leon. One more to go.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59You know, Rattus, sometimes it was the people

0:07:59 > 0:08:01who built the tombs that looted them.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03That is despicable, disgraceful and...

0:08:03 > 0:08:06- Well, actually, that's quite clever.- It is quite clever.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09He still hasn't checked that huge pile of pants on the floor.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12King Tut was actually buried with

0:08:12 > 0:08:13145 pairs of pants.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16That's the real treasure right there.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Well, he's gravitating towards the undergarments

0:08:18 > 0:08:21and he's got the final gong!

0:08:21 > 0:08:23It's the mask. That's going to need a wash.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26He's put it on the plinth, Year Sphere bagged.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30I thought it went really well, especially at the last minute.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33The hardest thing to find was this guy here.

0:08:33 > 0:08:34Obviously not hard enough!

0:08:36 > 0:08:40Hey, congratulations, Leon. You are indeed an excellent thief.

0:08:40 > 0:08:41Help yourself.

0:08:45 > 0:08:46Hey!

0:08:46 > 0:08:49- Rattus, where have you been? - I've been looting treasure.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52I've swiped a pair of Tutankhamen's pants.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55Is that really your idea of treasure? Old pants?

0:08:55 > 0:08:57I will never understand you rats.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00Well, I'll never begin to understand you humans.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- Give them here.- No! No!

0:09:03 > 0:09:04BOOM!

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Rattus, I... I'm feeling kind of weird.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Yeah, Dave. Me, too!

0:09:14 > 0:09:18- BOTH:- Whaa!

0:09:18 > 0:09:20We've swapped bodies!

0:09:20 > 0:09:22I'm all dirty and hairy!

0:09:22 > 0:09:25And I'm all clean and...not hairy.

0:09:25 > 0:09:31It's like we've been the victims of some highly factually inaccurate

0:09:31 > 0:09:33ancient Egyptian curse.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35Oh, make it better, Rattus, make it better!

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Pull yourself together, Dave. We've got a show to make.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41Oh... Onto Round Two!

0:09:41 > 0:09:44And to find out what's up next, it's over to the Gory Grid.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49It's the Terrible Tudors.

0:09:50 > 0:09:53And here are your all-important Tudor topics...

0:09:59 > 0:10:02So, Ellen, it's your turn to pick first.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04Could I have Executioners, please?

0:10:05 > 0:10:11True or false? Tudor executioners were often paid a tip by the victim.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13Let me see your answers, please.

0:10:14 > 0:10:15What's the answer?

0:10:15 > 0:10:17It's...true.

0:10:18 > 0:10:20Yes, the person who was about to have his head chopped off

0:10:20 > 0:10:23would often give their executioner coin,

0:10:23 > 0:10:26in the hope that they would do a speedy and clean job.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29- Heads or tails? Heads, you lose! - HE LAUGHS

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Yeah, if you could just do the scores for us?

0:10:33 > 0:10:35So, that's a point to Leon and Ellen.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Oh, my arms are massive!

0:10:39 > 0:10:43- I didn't like that. - So, Katherine, it's your turn next.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45- Can I have Elizabeth I? - Of course you can.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47True or false?

0:10:47 > 0:10:51At her coronation, Queen Elizabeth I had a rat burned

0:10:51 > 0:10:53to symbolise the releasing of demons.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56Please be false, please be false!

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Let me see those answers, please.

0:10:59 > 0:11:03Oh, and we've all gone for false. What's the answer?

0:11:03 > 0:11:05It's...false.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08To symbolise the releasing of demons at her coronation,

0:11:08 > 0:11:10Elizabeth had a cat burnt.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13I love a story with a happy ending.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16Rattus! Please.

0:11:16 > 0:11:17Sorry, more points.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20Whoa! Enormous arm.

0:11:20 > 0:11:21Still not used to it.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25So, Leon, your turn to pick a question.

0:11:25 > 0:11:26Please can I have Football?

0:11:26 > 0:11:28Football!

0:11:28 > 0:11:30True or false?

0:11:30 > 0:11:33In Tudor times, playing football killed more people

0:11:33 > 0:11:35than practising sword fighting.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38Let me see your answers, please.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40You've all gone for true again.

0:11:40 > 0:11:41What's the answer?

0:11:41 > 0:11:43It's...true!

0:11:43 > 0:11:47Whole villages would play each other and the goals would be a mile apart.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50Only one rule - no weapons.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54At kick-off, it all kicked off! Rargh!

0:11:57 > 0:12:01Imagine that - footballers properly hurt, rather than just pretending.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Wow, Dave, first time something properly funny

0:12:03 > 0:12:05has ever come out of your mouth.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07Oh, hardy-ha! HE LAUGHS

0:12:07 > 0:12:10- I'm getting used to these arms now. - HE CHUCKLES

0:12:10 > 0:12:12Don't get too used to them.

0:12:12 > 0:12:17So, one last question and it's from...me!

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Rattus Rattus, me.

0:12:22 > 0:12:23True or false?

0:12:23 > 0:12:26Young frogs covered in butter were swallowed

0:12:26 > 0:12:29to cure asthma in Tudor times.

0:12:29 > 0:12:30Let me see your answers, please.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34And you've all gone for true again.

0:12:34 > 0:12:35What's the answer?

0:12:35 > 0:12:37It is true.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40I think that is what you call having a frog in your throat.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42- Hey, hey, hey!- What?

0:12:42 > 0:12:45No buttered frog-eating while you've got my body!

0:12:45 > 0:12:49That's a point to every... I can do this, can't I? I keep forgetting.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52Yes, point, point, point. Finished.

0:12:52 > 0:12:56So, that's four points for Leon and Ellen, a tie-breaker situation.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00Right, Katherine, you sit this one out for the moment.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03Extend arms, pick up question, adopt position.

0:13:05 > 0:13:06Beginning with the letter A,

0:13:06 > 0:13:09what was the name of Henry VIII's second wife?

0:13:11 > 0:13:12Anne.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15Anne is correct. She got it right!

0:13:15 > 0:13:20Excellent, so, Ellen, you've won. Go and choose your Year Sphere.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23I can clap her!

0:13:27 > 0:13:30OK, Ellen, you're through to play the Tudor game.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33But will it be just you or will the others get to play, too?

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Let's find out.

0:13:35 > 0:13:36Rattus, if you don't mind?

0:13:36 > 0:13:39Here come the creepy long arms again. Whoa!

0:13:42 > 0:13:44It's an All Play game.

0:13:44 > 0:13:47- Down the Time Sewer with you. - I'll get it!

0:13:49 > 0:13:51My legs work as well!

0:13:52 > 0:13:53Oh, it smells in here!

0:13:57 > 0:14:01Shutting, shutting, weeing, weeing, walking, walking, weeing, shutting.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03Want to work for Henry VIII?

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Well, one way was to start at the bottom

0:14:05 > 0:14:08and work your way up, literally.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10It's time to play...

0:14:12 > 0:14:15You are the groom of the stool.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18- When Henry calls...- I've finished!

0:14:18 > 0:14:19..you must check His Majesty's poop.

0:14:19 > 0:14:23In the meantime, you have to brick Henry into his bedroom at night,

0:14:23 > 0:14:25to keep him safe from assassins.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27First to brick up the door wins a Year Sphere.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33HORN BLARES To the bricks they go.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35Now, for those of you watching for the first time,

0:14:35 > 0:14:39this innocent puzzle game will get really, really disgusting,

0:14:39 > 0:14:41just like the filthy whiskers around my face.

0:14:41 > 0:14:46- Don't you ever wash, Rattus? - Yes! Every morning, in the sewer.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Not in my body, you don't!

0:14:48 > 0:14:50I've finished!

0:14:50 > 0:14:53- Right, here comes the horrible bit, then.- You mean the good bit?

0:14:53 > 0:14:57No, off they go to remove the King's horrible... Oh! Oh!

0:14:57 > 0:15:01I think it's safe to say this is the only show on the planet

0:15:01 > 0:15:04where you'll see children collecting a king's poo!

0:15:04 > 0:15:05Right, back to the walls.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Everyone is making progress.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09The patterns don't look quite right but that doesn't matter,

0:15:09 > 0:15:12as long as all the pieces fit at the end, Rattus.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14- That's right, Dave. - Yes, it is right.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16And talking of the end, we may be getting close,

0:15:16 > 0:15:19because Leon is performing heroics.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21What a brickie!

0:15:21 > 0:15:23What an extraordinary brickie!

0:15:23 > 0:15:27Henry VIII will be absolutely delighted with that.

0:15:27 > 0:15:28He can sleep safe as houses.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31A pair of lightning dabs from Leon.

0:15:31 > 0:15:32Let's hear what he thought.

0:15:32 > 0:15:34It feels really odd,

0:15:34 > 0:15:39because I didn't expect myself to be cleaning up someone else's....waste.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44Well, congratulations, Leon. Go and collect your Year Sphere.

0:15:45 > 0:15:50Well done, Le... Ooh, I've had an idea. I'm off down the Time Sewer.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52Run, run, run! Whee!

0:15:52 > 0:15:55Will you stop hurling my body about?

0:15:55 > 0:15:57- I'm back!- Wow, that was quick.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59Yeah, well, that's Time Sewers for you.

0:15:59 > 0:16:00Whoa! Ooh!

0:16:00 > 0:16:02What have I just said?

0:16:02 > 0:16:06Oh, goodness' sake! Oh, I'll close that.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08I've got hold of the Egyptian Book Of The Dead.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10From the tomb of Tutankhamen?

0:16:10 > 0:16:13No, from the studio of a Hollywood film producer.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15Eugh! Silly, very silly.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19Page 94, Tutankhamen's Curse Of The Underpants.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23All you have to do is wish you were back in your own body.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25Oh, this is like the worst movie plot ever.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27One, two, three...

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- BOTH:- I wish I was back in my own body.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36Oh, that is so much better!

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Ah, yes, ha-ha!

0:16:38 > 0:16:40Oh, I'm clean.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42Right, Round Three

0:16:42 > 0:16:45and it's over to the Gory Grid to find out what's up next.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49It's the Vile Victorians. Good day.

0:16:50 > 0:16:54Four questions, as always, and here are your four Victorian topics.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03So, Katherine, it's finally your turn to pick first.

0:17:03 > 0:17:06- Can I have Police, please? - Yes, you can.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09What did Victorian criminals call police officers?

0:17:15 > 0:17:16Show me now, please.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19Oh, complete disagreement! What's the answer?

0:17:19 > 0:17:21The answer is C.

0:17:21 > 0:17:24Victorian criminals called police officers bogies.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Hey, I'll tell you what I like to call a police officer.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29- Cover your ears, viewers.- Officer.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- Always treat them with respect, Dave.- Hmm!

0:17:32 > 0:17:35I think a little bit of human might have rubbed off on you, Rattus.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38- Eugh!- So, that's a point to you there, Ellen.

0:17:38 > 0:17:39Leon, your turn to pick.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41- Please can I have Fogs? - Of course you can.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44Victorian London was famous for its thick fogs

0:17:44 > 0:17:48caused by fog from the Thames and smoke from coal fires.

0:17:48 > 0:17:49But what were they called?

0:17:56 > 0:17:57Show me now, please.

0:17:58 > 0:18:02Everyone agrees on that one. Everybody thinks it's B.

0:18:02 > 0:18:03What's the answer, please?

0:18:03 > 0:18:06The answer is...A.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08We called the folks pea soupers,

0:18:08 > 0:18:12because they were as thick and greenish as a bowl of pea soup.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14No points there, I'm afraid.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16But Ellen, you get to choose the next topic.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19- Could I have Cures, please? - Yes, you can!

0:18:19 > 0:18:22A Victorian cure for blisters was to put what in your boots?

0:18:28 > 0:18:30Let's have a look at those answers.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Katherine and Leon agreeing this time with B.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35Ellen thinks it's C. What's the answer, please?

0:18:35 > 0:18:37The answer is C.

0:18:37 > 0:18:38Raw eggs.

0:18:38 > 0:18:42To cure blisters, you broke a raw egg into each boot.

0:18:42 > 0:18:46Hmm! Cheesy eggs. What's not to like?

0:18:46 > 0:18:48Yeah, it does sound quite nice, actually!

0:18:49 > 0:18:53- Oh, Rattus, what have you done to me?- Hey, once a rat, always a rat.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Let's just hope not.

0:18:55 > 0:18:57So, that's another point to you, Ellen.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00And that means that you have won the next Year Sphere. Congratulations.

0:19:00 > 0:19:04- Help yourself.- Fingers crossed it's not a BC baddie!

0:19:06 > 0:19:08OK, Ellen, as the winner of the Victorian quiz,

0:19:08 > 0:19:10you're through to play the Victorian game.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13But will you be playing alone or will the others join in with you

0:19:13 > 0:19:16and provide competition? There's only one way to find out.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Oh, it's a Single Player game!

0:19:23 > 0:19:26- Ellen, do you think you can pull this off?- Maybe!

0:19:28 > 0:19:30Ellen, Time Sewer, Time Sewer, Ellen. Bye!

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Good news - during the Industrial Revolution,

0:19:35 > 0:19:37- some kids didn't have to go to school.- Hey!

0:19:37 > 0:19:40Bad news - it's because they were working in very dangerous factories

0:19:40 > 0:19:42where there was always a high risk of injury.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44- Oh!- It's time to play...

0:19:47 > 0:19:50Somewhere in the lethal machinery are four severed fingers.

0:19:50 > 0:19:54All you have to do is reunite them with their long-lost hand.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56If you manage it within the time limit,

0:19:56 > 0:19:58there's a Year Sphere coming your way.

0:20:01 > 0:20:03HORN BLARES

0:20:03 > 0:20:06And through the roller goes Ellen, dodging into the loom now.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09And she's going straight for the furthest finger, I think.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12It's an interesting strategy, this. Let's hope it pays off.

0:20:12 > 0:20:16I once snuck into a modern factory where there were fingers everywhere.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19- No!- It was a fish finger factory. - Of course it was.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21There's a lot of spinning going on here.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23But the finger remains trapped.

0:20:24 > 0:20:25Look at that!

0:20:25 > 0:20:28- Turn it, girl! Turn it faster! - Oh, gosh, here's the factory owner.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30What a testable man he is!

0:20:30 > 0:20:32But to be fair, she is going much faster.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35Turn it! You've got to get all the fingers.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Oh, leave her alone, you bully! That's it, get lost.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41Yeah, well done, you saw him off there, Rattus.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43And she's got the finger! And it's free.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46Chain next. She needs to make up for lost time here.

0:20:47 > 0:20:51Victorian factories were dirty and grimy. Ooh, nice!

0:20:51 > 0:20:55- What do I mean, nice!?- Truly, Dave, you have found your inner rat.

0:20:55 > 0:20:59Eugh! Only a few more pulls and she's got finger number two.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01Hurry up, Ellen, you can do this.

0:21:01 > 0:21:02And she has!

0:21:02 > 0:21:04Back through the loom she goes.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08Now, then, she's going to place these, is she? Yes!

0:21:08 > 0:21:11Two fingers back on the hand, two to go.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14Where's she going next, Rattus? We just don't know with Ellen.

0:21:14 > 0:21:16She's a maverick.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19Well, she's settled on the rods. she has to unscrew these

0:21:19 > 0:21:21and then pull them out, like that.

0:21:21 > 0:21:22Well, no, not like that!

0:21:22 > 0:21:24That has got jammed.

0:21:24 > 0:21:26Well, it's all very well taking the ones out below,

0:21:26 > 0:21:29but she's got to unsnag that finger, Rattus.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31Go on, give it a good jiggling, Ellen!

0:21:31 > 0:21:33She's jiggling it like crazy!

0:21:33 > 0:21:35And it starts to fall, piecemeal,

0:21:35 > 0:21:38down to the bottom of the cabinet,

0:21:38 > 0:21:39and she can grab it now.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41One more to find.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43She's got less than 10 seconds.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46The final finger is in those bags somewhere.

0:21:46 > 0:21:47Can she find it in time?

0:21:47 > 0:21:49I don't think she can!

0:21:49 > 0:21:51HORN BLARES No!

0:21:51 > 0:21:54She has got it but after the time's ran out.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56How do you feel, Ellen?

0:21:56 > 0:21:58I spent a long time on the one

0:21:58 > 0:22:01where you had to turn it around and around.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04So, I think that slowed me down for the rest of it.

0:22:05 > 0:22:08Oh, bad luck, Ellen. Bad luck!

0:22:08 > 0:22:13No Year Sphere this time, but there is still one more to play for.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15Hey, what... What's that weird smell?

0:22:15 > 0:22:18- It's soap.- You didn't...

0:22:18 > 0:22:20- You didn't wash me?- I sure did!

0:22:20 > 0:22:22Argh!

0:22:22 > 0:22:27- How could you?- Oh, it's just a bit of fun, Rattus. Come on!

0:22:27 > 0:22:30One more game, one more Year Sphere available,

0:22:30 > 0:22:33so let's go over to the Gory Grid to find out what we're playing.

0:22:36 > 0:22:37It's the Incredible Inca.

0:22:39 > 0:22:43So, no quiz in our final round. We're ending on a massive Inca game.

0:22:43 > 0:22:47- It's very exciting. How are you feeling about that?- Cool.- Good.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Well, what are you waiting for? Pop down that Time Sewer.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52Well done, Katherine.

0:22:54 > 0:22:55Whee!

0:22:57 > 0:23:00If you were an Inca emperor and you wanted to spit,

0:23:00 > 0:23:01then someone had to catch it.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03So, let's play...

0:23:05 > 0:23:09Your job is to catch the mucus in your hanky before it hits the ground

0:23:09 > 0:23:12and then pop it in your basket at the end of your lane.

0:23:12 > 0:23:15As if that wasn't enough phlegm, watch out for the spitting llamas.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18The person with the greatest amount of gob is the winner

0:23:18 > 0:23:20and gets themselves a Year Sphere.

0:23:23 > 0:23:27HORN BLARES Hankies up and the phlegm is flying.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Oh, that was unlucky for Katherine there.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31That was very lucky, though!

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Now, hang on. Oh!

0:23:33 > 0:23:36Ellen's picked one up off the floor, that's against the rules.

0:23:36 > 0:23:37That is not going to count.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41Katherine's on board with one. Now, Leon's broken the rules, Rattus!

0:23:41 > 0:23:45- Aw!- What is happening here? - Yeah, what is happening?

0:23:45 > 0:23:47The Incan emperor spit was not allowed to touch the ground.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50That's sort of the point of the game.

0:23:50 > 0:23:51I know, I know, Rattus.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Oh, what's going to happen now?

0:23:53 > 0:23:57Ellen, off the floor again. That is not going to count.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59Dear, oh, dear!

0:23:59 > 0:24:02Katherine, on the other hand, is playing entirely by the rules. Look.

0:24:02 > 0:24:06And that is reflected on the score board there, 2-0-0.

0:24:06 > 0:24:11And as I say that, Leon notches a legitimate score

0:24:11 > 0:24:13but Katherine counters immediately.

0:24:13 > 0:24:16- Although Leon's on a charge here, Rattus.- He certainly is!

0:24:16 > 0:24:19But Katherine is keeping her nose in front.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21- Oh, and here's the llamas. - There they are!

0:24:21 > 0:24:24And they are going to start spitting on our contestants,

0:24:24 > 0:24:27which frankly is not something we want to see you doing at home.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30Here she comes, Katherine, ready to score...

0:24:30 > 0:24:31Whoa!

0:24:31 > 0:24:34Whoa, that must have all been llama spit, that. Oh!

0:24:34 > 0:24:37That was absolute carnage.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39A complete wipe-out there.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42This means that Katherine,

0:24:42 > 0:24:44even though she's only one point up,

0:24:44 > 0:24:45may have a commanding lead.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Now she's two points up!

0:24:47 > 0:24:49And I don't think Leon's going to be

0:24:49 > 0:24:50standing up again!

0:24:50 > 0:24:52He might as well pick them off the floor now,

0:24:52 > 0:24:54he's never getting up the other end, look.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56No! Dear, oh, dear.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58It's just become a slip fest.

0:24:58 > 0:25:00I mean, look at that.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02He's not going anywhere fast there, Leon.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05And down he goes! HE LAUGHS

0:25:05 > 0:25:06Down he goes again.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09- And oh, dear me! - You shouldn't laugh.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11Oh, they're all over the place here.

0:25:11 > 0:25:13There's Katherine, she's won it.

0:25:13 > 0:25:14Leon hasn't.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17It got really tiring, and it was even more difficult

0:25:17 > 0:25:22when the slime came down and there was llamas spitting in your face.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25But apart from that, I really, really enjoyed the game.

0:25:26 > 0:25:30Welcome back, welcome back. Well played, Katherine, well played.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32Collect that Year Sphere.

0:25:32 > 0:25:35That could be absolutely crucial in the final reckoning.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39Now then, it's time to count up those Year Spheres.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42And remember, AD dates are added to your total

0:25:42 > 0:25:45and BC dates are, of course, subtracted from it.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49OK, Leon, let's open up that first one, please.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species

0:25:55 > 0:25:58about the theory of evolution that year.

0:25:58 > 0:25:59Let's have a look at the second one.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04It's another good one, 1348 AD.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06The Black Death hit England that very year.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08Let's have a look at the final one.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13Oh, it's AD, it's small but it is AD.

0:26:13 > 0:26:19476 AD, the fall of the Western Roman Empire that year.

0:26:19 > 0:26:21Now, I reckon that if you got brilliant ones, Ellen,

0:26:21 > 0:26:23you might be able to catch that.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25Let's have a look at that first sphere.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31That's junked that theory.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34- 9500 BC.- Yes!- What?

0:26:34 > 0:26:37I'm afraid that was the end of the last Ice Age.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40And there's another one. Let's have a second look.

0:26:40 > 0:26:442400 BC. You've lost in enormously brilliant style!

0:26:44 > 0:26:46That is tremendous losing.

0:26:46 > 0:26:50The abacus was invented in Babylonia around about then.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53Remarkable set of figures there. Katherine, let's have a look.

0:26:56 > 0:26:581547 AD!

0:26:58 > 0:27:00Henry VIII died that year.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02You've finished firmly in second place.

0:27:02 > 0:27:10But today's winner is Leon, with a total of 3,683 points.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13- What?- That means that you are, of course, the winner.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16But as Rattus found your prize in the Time Sewer,

0:27:16 > 0:27:18you are also, in many ways, the loser.

0:27:18 > 0:27:21Oh, I beg to differ, Dave!

0:27:21 > 0:27:24- This prize is red hot. - I'll be the judge of that.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28Oh, wow, it is red hot.

0:27:28 > 0:27:32Yeah, it's from Stuart witchfinder general Matthew Hopkins,

0:27:32 > 0:27:34who said to stop a witch's power,

0:27:34 > 0:27:37you had to take a red-hot poker and prod it in a poo.

0:27:37 > 0:27:38There you go, Leon.

0:27:39 > 0:27:42- Thanks.- Two reasons never ever to touch it.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45And our runners-up don't escape poop-free, of course.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47They're off home via the Time Sewer.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51And they're both absolutely cock-a-hoop about it,

0:27:51 > 0:27:52for some reason.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59Oh, yes!

0:27:59 > 0:28:02Ah! That is good!

0:28:02 > 0:28:03Well, I've been Dave Lamb.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05And unfortunately, I've been Rattus Rattus,

0:28:05 > 0:28:08and it's something I may never recover from.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10- You've been watching Gory Games.- Goodbye!

0:28:12 > 0:28:13# Games! #
