Horrible Histories presents...

0:00:330:00:36

Previously on 'Mary Queen of Scots'...

0:01:150:01:19

..to King James V of Scotland.

0:01:210:01:25

Great news, Your Majesty. Your wife's had a baby girl.

0:01:250:01:29

Your Majesty?

0:01:310:01:33

Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

0:01:340:01:38

No, he's dead!

0:01:390:01:43

I crown you...

0:01:460:01:50

Mary, Queen of Scots.

0:01:500:01:53

FANFARE

0:01:530:01:56

An infant Queen forced to flee Scotland,

0:02:000:02:03

as her mother receives shock news.

0:02:030:02:06

Henry Ze Eighth wants Mary to marry his son, Prince Edward?

0:02:060:02:11

Over my dead body!

0:02:110:02:13

Mary, you are going to France.

0:02:130:02:16

Pick four friends to take with you.

0:02:160:02:19

Hmm, Mary, Mary, Mary and Mary.

0:02:190:02:23

That'll be fun at Passport Control!

0:02:230:02:26

A Scottish Queen

0:02:260:02:28

sent to live in France.

0:02:280:02:31

Get, get. Welcome to France.

0:02:310:02:35

Now, first things first, let us get you a boyfriend.

0:02:360:02:39

Forced to marry at 17, but destined for the French throne.

0:02:390:02:44

You may now kiss the bride.

0:02:440:02:47

APPLAUSE

0:02:470:02:50

Er, my father is dead!

0:02:540:02:58

Oh.

0:02:590:03:01

Now, I am King and you are Queen of France.

0:03:010:03:05

-SCOTTISH ACCENT:

-Get in! Yes!

0:03:050:03:08

Eh?

0:03:080:03:10

-FRENCH ACCENT:

-We shall rule France and Scotland together

0:03:100:03:12

for decades to come.

0:03:120:03:14

I don't know. I don't feel so well.

0:03:140:03:18

HE SNIFFS

0:03:180:03:21

Mary, Queen of Scots and France...

0:03:210:03:24

HE SNEEZES

0:03:260:03:28

FRENCH ACCENT: Oh, Mary.

0:03:310:03:32

-ALL:

-Yes, m'lady?

0:03:320:03:34

Oh, not you, Mary, Mary or Mary. YOU, Mary!

0:03:340:03:37

Yes, m'lady.

0:03:370:03:38

I was just thinking how happy I am here in France,

0:03:380:03:42

compared to dreary old Scotland.

0:03:420:03:44

The weather is better, the fashion is better,

0:03:440:03:48

the food is so much better.

0:03:480:03:51

Mm, yes, m'lady. Scotland is rubbish.

0:03:510:03:53

-SCOTTISH ACCENT:

-You shut your gegy!

0:03:530:03:55

That's my bonnie wee Scotland you're running doon there!

0:03:550:03:58

FRENCH ACCENT: But, you're right.

0:03:580:04:00

Ze day we arrived in France from Scotland

0:04:000:04:03

was ze 'appiest day of my life.

0:04:030:04:07

Now, Mary...

0:04:070:04:08

-ALL:

-Yes, m'lady?

0:04:080:04:10

You, Mary, fetch me my little doggie.

0:04:100:04:13

Yes, m'lady.

0:04:130:04:16

-ALL:

-Aah!

0:04:160:04:17

Oh, look what I 'ave stitched.

0:04:170:04:20

I have made a new coat for my little doggie.

0:04:200:04:22

I am so 'appy!

0:04:240:04:26

But, m'lady, isn't King Francis still unwell, huh?

0:04:260:04:29

I hear he is bravely fighting for his life.

0:04:290:04:32

Ah, no, he's just being a sickly little softie, as per usual.

0:04:320:04:35

He only has an earache. You cannot die of an earache.

0:04:350:04:40

DOOR OPENS

0:04:400:04:41

-SOBS:

-King Francis has died of earache!

0:04:410:04:43

THEY GASP

0:04:430:04:45

-Huh, apparently you can.

-Oh, my darling son!

0:04:450:04:48

Hold on a minute, if Francis is no longer King,

0:04:480:04:52

does that mean zat I am in charge?

0:04:520:04:55

No, I am,

0:04:550:04:58

and you, Mary, are going straight back to Scotland.

0:04:580:05:02

Hmm, um, which, erm, Mary is that?

0:05:020:05:07

-M'lady?

-ALL OF YOU!

0:05:070:05:10

THEY GASP

0:05:100:05:11

SCOTTISH ACCENT: Jings! That's a pure wee downer, that!

0:05:110:05:14

So, widowed Mary was sent packing across the Channel

0:05:140:05:18

back to Scotland.

0:05:180:05:19

Mary was known for her love of clothes and fashion,

0:05:190:05:22

but it wasn't just Tudor women who dressed in extravagant ways.

0:05:220:05:26

Hey.

0:05:340:05:36

How you doing?

0:05:360:05:37

Erm, I'm all right.

0:05:370:05:40

Actually a bit 'ruff'.

0:05:420:05:44

Oh, ho!

0:05:440:05:46

-New ruff?

-11-incher.

-Really?

-Well, rough guess.

0:05:460:05:50

-IMITATES REVERSING LORRY:

-EEER! EEER! EEER!

0:05:500:05:54

Hey!

0:05:540:05:56

Guess who's here.

0:05:560:05:58

Oh, sorry I'm late.

0:05:580:06:00

Nice ruff.

0:06:030:06:05

Oh, thank you, yeah. Rough time putting it on.

0:06:050:06:07

Yeah, all those pins and bleaching.

0:06:070:06:09

Yeah, like, really rough on your hands.

0:06:090:06:11

I would not want to be out there right now.

0:06:110:06:13

Rough weather can be so rough on the ruff.

0:06:130:06:15

Ooh, true dat.

0:06:150:06:18

Ooh!

0:06:180:06:20

HE SPLUTTERS

0:06:200:06:22

Man, you look well...

0:06:220:06:24

-What's the word?

-Rough?

-Yeah.

0:06:240:06:27

HE WHIMPERS

0:06:270:06:29

Ooh, I smell soup!

0:06:310:06:34

-There's a problem with these spoons, waitress.

-Oh, waitress!

0:06:390:06:44

-She's gone.

-That is no way to run a business.

0:06:440:06:47

Ooh! Hey, hi! The old human spoon trick, huh?

0:06:470:06:52

Thank you.

0:06:520:06:54

Although, they do look a bit ridiculous, though.

0:06:540:06:57

Yeah, well, you've got to take the rough with the smooth, haven't you?

0:06:570:07:01

Spoooo-ooon!

0:07:010:07:03

Boys, soup for one and soup for all.

0:07:030:07:07

Hey, let's eat!

0:07:070:07:10

You, you soup-spoon me, I'll soup-spoon you.

0:07:120:07:15

You do him. I do you.

0:07:150:07:17

-I do me?

-You do him. I do you.

0:07:170:07:20

16th century fashion might have been strange,

0:07:200:07:23

but 16th century food could be pretty weird too.

0:07:230:07:26

-I'm Mar..

-I'm Paul Hollybush.

0:07:290:07:32

Er, and I'm Mary, Queen of Scones.

0:07:320:07:35

Let's see what our bakers can impress us with this week.

0:07:350:07:38

For our signature bake challenge, we're going to ask them to both make

0:07:380:07:41

-a simple loaf of...

-It's Tudor bread...

-..Tudor bread from

0:07:410:07:43

-the reign of Mary Queen of Scots.

-..Queen of Scots.

0:07:430:07:46

-So, Gilbert...

-So, Gilbert, what have you gone for?

0:07:460:07:48

A brown loaf, Mary,

0:07:480:07:50

which in Tudor times would have been the cheaper sort of bread

0:07:500:07:53

-eaten by poor people in the taverns and so forth.

-Oh, poor people.

0:07:530:07:57

Yeah, the white bread would have only been for the wealthy

0:07:570:08:00

-and posh types and so forth.

-Percy, what...

0:08:000:08:02

And Percy, what do you have planned for us?

0:08:020:08:05

Er, biscuit bread Mary with aniseed and coriander.

0:08:050:08:08

-Oh.

-Do you not like biscuit bread?

0:08:080:08:11

Oh, no, I'm still thinking about the poor people.

0:08:110:08:14

That does sound lovely.

0:08:140:08:15

-Get baking!

-Get baking!

-I just said that.

0:08:150:08:19

Let's see how the biscuit bread is coming along.

0:08:290:08:34

Percy, you don't seem happy with your bake?

0:08:350:08:38

Oh, no, it's fine. It's just that this traditional Tudor recipe

0:08:380:08:41

means that I have to pummel it with a length of wood for two hours

0:08:410:08:44

before it's even remotely ready to bake.

0:08:440:08:47

-This biscuit bread's going to take some beating.

-Very good, Mary.

0:08:470:08:50

HE SLAMS

0:08:500:08:51

Ha! Ha!

0:08:510:08:53

HE SLAMS

0:08:530:08:55

Ha!

0:08:550:08:57

-Where is it?

-Er, it's not here. Yeah, most Tudors didn't have ovens

0:08:580:09:02

so they'd send their dough off to bakers instead.

0:09:020:09:06

Oh, here it comes now.

0:09:060:09:08

-Ah, it's a really soggy bottom.

-Sorry, I sat on a wet bench.

0:09:130:09:17

No!

0:09:190:09:22

FRENCH ACCENT: Cuckoo! How's it going?

0:09:220:09:24

I am Mary. I am 18.

0:09:240:09:26

I am a Queen and I am single, again.

0:09:260:09:29

If you are interested and you are a prince or a powerful noble

0:09:290:09:33

who can help me hold on to my throne, then drop me a line.

0:09:330:09:37

But don't wait around though, because I won't be single long!

0:09:370:09:41

SCOTTISH ACCENT: I'm pure fit, me! Mmm!

0:09:410:09:44

Mary's return to Scotland didn't please everyone,

0:09:440:09:47

especially not Queen Elizabeth I.

0:09:470:09:50

You see, Mary was Elizabeth's cousin

0:09:500:09:53

with her own strong claim to rule England.

0:09:530:09:56

Feisty Elizabeth felt threatened.

0:09:560:09:58

There was only space for one royal bum on that throne.

0:09:580:10:01

Let the rivalry begin!

0:10:010:10:04

Tudor Togs presents Princess Dress-Up.

0:10:040:10:08

Every little girl wants to be a Queen and now,

0:10:080:10:11

Tudor Togs have two fabulous outfits for her to choose from.

0:10:110:10:15

How about Queen Elizabeth I of England?

0:10:150:10:18

The Protestant Queen of England with no European allies, no husband

0:10:190:10:23

and no children to slow her down.

0:10:230:10:25

Failure to get married carried out at monarch's own risk.

0:10:250:10:28

Prospects for the Tudor Dynasty may go up or down.

0:10:280:10:30

I can hear you, you know!

0:10:300:10:33

Or how about Mary Queen of Scots?

0:10:330:10:35

Tall, beautiful, young, fashionable. Adored around Europe.

0:10:350:10:39

All right! We get the idea!

0:10:390:10:41

Through her father James V of Scotland and her grandmother,

0:10:410:10:43

Margaret Tudor, she has Tudor AND Stuart claim to the English throne.

0:10:430:10:46

Le double whammy!

0:10:460:10:48

With strong ties to Europe because she's Catholic and a bit French.

0:10:480:10:52

-I'll take both.

-You can't have both!

0:10:520:10:54

These outfits must be sold separately

0:10:540:10:56

as the two monarchs are never seen in the same room.

0:10:560:10:58

Tudor Togs, because every little girl deserves to be a Queen.

0:10:580:11:02

No liabilities accepted for death

0:11:020:11:03

and treason plots incurred whilst wearing our outfits.

0:11:030:11:06

Dressing up as royalty is a punishable offence.

0:11:060:11:08

Argh!

0:11:080:11:11

Tudor Togs, get them before they get you!

0:11:110:11:15

So, while the Queen v Queen rivalry was really heating up,

0:11:150:11:20

ambitious Mary met and married her second husband,

0:11:200:11:23

the Scottish noble, Lord Darnley.

0:11:230:11:26

Oh, he's dreamy.

0:11:260:11:28

But Darnley was so annoying and upset so many people,

0:11:280:11:32

the other Scottish nobles had him killed.

0:11:320:11:34

Not so dreamy.

0:11:340:11:36

FRENCH ACCENT: Hello, hi. How is it going?

0:11:360:11:38

I am Mary. I am 25 and I am single...again,

0:11:380:11:42

and looking for my, erm, Francis, Darnley...THIRD husband.

0:11:420:11:48

I'd like to say my second husband died of natural causes...

0:11:480:11:52

SCOTTISH ACCENT: ..but his hoose was blown to bits and he was strangled!

0:11:520:11:56

FRENCH ACCENT: Doesn't come much more unnatural zan zat.

0:11:560:11:59

You must 'ave your own army.

0:11:590:12:01

I still have my own country,

0:12:010:12:03

but it looks like I might have to fight for it.

0:12:030:12:06

Would be great if you are a prince,

0:12:060:12:08

but really, I just need someone who can...

0:12:080:12:10

SCOTTISH ACCENT: ..smash my enemies into tiny wee bits!

0:12:100:12:14

If Mary asks for me, I'm not available.

0:12:140:12:17

While Mary was searching for another husband, life in the 1500s

0:12:170:12:20

was developing in lots of different ways, from science to the cess-pit.

0:12:200:12:24

Hold your noses!

0:12:240:12:26

Oh, sorry.

0:12:370:12:39

No, no, no, please, take a seat.

0:12:390:12:42

BUBBLING NOISE

0:12:420:12:43

-What's that?

-That, sir, is Ajax,

0:12:430:12:46

the first ever flushing privy, invented in 1596 by me.

0:12:460:12:50

-Really?

-Yes, Mr John Harrington.

0:12:500:12:53

Esteemed poet and godson to Queen Elizabeth herself,

0:12:530:12:56

but you can call me Mr Toilet.

0:12:560:12:59

No? Fair enough.

0:12:590:13:01

Nobody seems to want to shake Mr Toilet's hand.

0:13:010:13:04

Regard, one I made earlier.

0:13:040:13:06

-Eurgh! What is wrong with you?!

-It's very unpleasant, isn't it?

0:13:060:13:10

But with the new Harrington loo, simply pull the lever...

0:13:100:13:13

TOILET FLUSHES

0:13:130:13:15

..and the doings are magically flushed away.

0:13:150:13:17

Prithee, the privy of the future.

0:13:170:13:19

-Mind your feet.

-Oh, man!

0:13:190:13:21

-Yes, but I am working on that bit.

-Do you mind?

0:13:210:13:24

-Do you mind going away?

-Each to their own.

0:13:250:13:29

Oh, hang on, erm, where's the paper?

0:13:300:13:33

Paper? Do you intend to write?

0:13:330:13:35

-For afterwards.

-Oh, I see!

0:13:350:13:37

Just use the same cloth as everyone else - Old faithful.

0:13:370:13:40

You know what, never mind. Thanks.

0:13:400:13:44

Welcome to Amazing Scientists.

0:13:510:13:53

CAT MIAOWS

0:13:530:13:55

You know, some Tudors believed some pretty crazy stuff.

0:13:550:13:58

They believed that unicorn horns could heal people.

0:13:580:14:00

They also believed in unicorns,

0:14:000:14:02

but the Tudors also did some amazing things.

0:14:020:14:05

Think about it!

0:14:050:14:06

Tudors knew stuff about space

0:14:060:14:08

and they didn't even have the internet or loom bands!

0:14:080:14:10

Tudor science is amazing!

0:14:100:14:12

But don't take my word for it.

0:14:120:14:14

I'm about to meet one of the brainiest fellas of the Tudor times,

0:14:140:14:17

Danish scientist, Tycho Brahe.

0:14:170:14:19

Hi, Brian.

0:14:190:14:21

-Tycho, you're wearing a fake silver nose.

-Yeah.

0:14:210:14:24

I imagine that's for a good scientific reason?

0:14:240:14:26

Certainly is. I lost my real nose in a fight about math.

0:14:260:14:29

That's not science, that's just weird, but anyway, carry on.

0:14:290:14:32

-Just tell them about your amazing achievements.

-Oh, yeah, sure.

0:14:320:14:35

-So, over the course of my career, I catalogued over 1,000 stars.

-Wow!

0:14:350:14:39

I also invented numerous instruments designed to help study and measure

0:14:390:14:43

the universe with astonishing accuracy.

0:14:430:14:45

-He's astronomically amazing!

-Thanks.

0:14:450:14:47

-Well, that's all from me...

-I also had a fortune-telling dwarf.

0:14:470:14:51

Oh, you had to ruin it, didn't you?!

0:14:510:14:52

-He's called Jep and he lived under my desk.

-Zip it!

0:14:520:14:55

I also had an elk. I used to bring him to parties.

0:14:550:14:58

I don't want to know.

0:14:580:14:59

Unfortunately, one day he fell down the stairs.

0:14:590:15:01

What was he doing on the stairs? Looking for the loo?

0:15:010:15:03

It's a funny story. We'd been having a little bit of the drinky spinky.

0:15:030:15:06

Oh, get out of it!

0:15:060:15:08

Tudor scientists, amazing, but weird.

0:15:080:15:11

-Do you like to party?

-No.

0:15:110:15:13

FRENCH ACCENT: Now, my second husband, Lord Darnley,

0:15:150:15:17

wanted to be King and he was an arrogant idiot

0:15:170:15:20

who made lots of enemies.

0:15:200:15:22

Unfortunately he was killed.

0:15:220:15:26

But what did I do to ze person who killed him?

0:15:260:15:29

Ah, ze answer is...'C'!

0:15:360:15:40

Pretty much everyone knows the Earl of Bothwell murdered Lord Darnley

0:15:400:15:43

but I married him anyway.

0:15:430:15:46

What can I say, I'm a hopeless romantic.

0:15:460:15:49

So miserable Mary was forced to flee from Scotland because the Scottish

0:16:090:16:13

nobles thought her third husband was even worse than the one before.

0:16:130:16:17

But when she escaped to England,

0:16:170:16:19

she was arrested and put in prison by her cousin Queen Elizabeth,

0:16:190:16:22

who was worried she was trying to steal the English throne.

0:16:220:16:25

You couldn't make it up!

0:16:250:16:27

FRENCH ACCENT: I am back in ze market again, looking for a husband,

0:16:270:16:30

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!

0:16:300:16:32

Now, before I wanted a prince or someone with an army.

0:16:320:16:37

Now I basically just want someone who isn't going to get killed.

0:16:370:16:43

Oh, and someone who can get me out of prison.

0:16:430:16:46

Elizabeth I has me locked up,

0:16:460:16:48

so really you need to be someone she approves of.

0:16:480:16:50

SCOTTISH ACCENT: Although I am up for a secret marriage alliance to

0:16:500:16:54

a powerful Catholic who can help me smash England

0:16:540:16:57

and take back what's rightfully mine!

0:16:570:17:00

While Elizabeth kept Mary under lock and key,

0:17:000:17:02

over near Greece, a war was being waged at sea.

0:17:020:17:06

The naval battle of Lepanto was massive and massively weird.

0:17:060:17:11

It's time for History's Craziest Fools!

0:17:110:17:15

Hey, you! Yeah, you!

0:17:160:17:18

Quit picking your nose like a yoghurt and listen up, yeah!

0:17:180:17:22

I'm Mr H and I've been working hard searching through history

0:17:220:17:25

to find the craziest fools that ever lived!

0:17:250:17:27

These people are bad for your health, bruv!

0:17:270:17:30

If you don't pay attention, so am I, for real fam, get it? Chill!

0:17:300:17:35

Leave it! The naval battle of Lepanto 1571, yeah?

0:17:410:17:46

The mighty Ottomans were up against the Spanish, Italian and Maltese

0:17:460:17:51

fighting for the future of Europe, like in the football.

0:17:510:17:55

The Ottoman captain can see that the enemy are too far away to fire at,

0:17:550:17:59

so what's he going to do?

0:17:590:18:00

Wait patiently and conserve energy for the battle ahead?

0:18:000:18:04

Come on, everyone, dance, dance, dance!

0:18:040:18:08

NOO! He's going to try and start a dance-off! What?!

0:18:080:18:11

Dance!

0:18:110:18:13

You'd better get the right tune, otherwise it is going to be whack!

0:18:130:18:16

Now, if this guy had any sense, yeah,

0:18:160:18:19

he would ignore the crazy Ottoman behaviour...

0:18:190:18:21

-Oh, you can't touch this.

-..BUT HE DOESN'T!

0:18:210:18:24

Who? Me? Dance!

0:18:240:18:27

Oh, man, quit already!

0:18:290:18:31

You're already making me seasick.

0:18:310:18:33

Now that the battle is done,

0:18:330:18:35

you think things are going to get serious, right? WRONG!

0:18:350:18:37

CANNON FIRE

0:18:370:18:41

Not a so...

0:18:410:18:43

Argh!

0:18:430:18:44

This guy has just had his hand blown off

0:18:440:18:46

and it takes like 100 years or something to grow it back!

0:18:460:18:49

He needs to stop the bleeding.

0:18:490:18:51

That is a pretty sensible idea.

0:18:510:18:54

THEY CHEER

0:18:540:18:56

But that definitely isn't!

0:18:560:18:57

A chicken band-aid?!

0:18:570:18:59

Mate, chickens are for burgers.

0:18:590:19:01

What are you thinking, finger-licking fool!

0:19:010:19:03

-Yeah, there's no more cannon balls.

-What? What?

0:19:030:19:07

Here come the Spanish. The Ottomans are out of ammo! Oh, my days!

0:19:070:19:10

Think it's all over? Think again!

0:19:100:19:13

Who needs cannon balls when we've got fresh fruit! Load!

0:19:130:19:18

Aim!

0:19:180:19:19

Fire! Ha-ha!

0:19:190:19:21

Fire fruit at will!

0:19:210:19:23

Ha-ha! Take that, you silly Spanish!

0:19:230:19:27

Know when to quit, citrus fruit fools.

0:19:270:19:30

One glass of fool juice. All right!

0:19:300:19:32

Eurgh!

0:19:320:19:34

Remember, as long as we keep making history,

0:19:340:19:36

history will keep making crazy fools.

0:19:360:19:39

Best advice I can give to you is to keep out of their way!

0:19:390:19:42

Ha-ha! Until next time, stay away from stupid, y'all!

0:19:420:19:46

Have we cut? Right, someone's taken my yoga mat.

0:19:480:19:52

FRENCH ACCENT: I am still Mary Queen of Scots...

0:19:530:19:56

just about.

0:19:560:19:57

So zat is quite a strange name

0:19:570:19:59

because I haven't spent zat much time in Scotland.

0:19:590:20:03

In fact, how many years did I live there in total?

0:20:030:20:07

Ze answer is B!

0:20:150:20:18

I may be Queen of ze Scots,

0:20:180:20:20

but I only lived zer for 12 years out of my entire life.

0:20:200:20:24

Ze rest of the time I was living in France,

0:20:240:20:27

wearing lovely dresses and for ze past 19 years, I have been

0:20:270:20:31

held prisoner in England, whilst also wearing lovely dresses.

0:20:310:20:37

SCOTTISH ACCENT: What? I cannae be seen in rags now, can I?

0:20:370:20:40

What if Elizabeth I gets assassinated by one of my followers

0:20:400:20:43

and I get made Queen of England?

0:20:430:20:47

FRENCH ACCENT: Whoops! I 'ave said too much!

0:20:470:20:49

Mary said she didn't want to kill Elizabeth

0:20:490:20:52

and take the English throne, but Catholic plotters began

0:20:520:20:55

writing letters to her planning exactly that.

0:20:550:20:58

Wooo!

0:20:580:20:59

Luckily for Queen Liz,

0:20:590:21:01

her spy master, Lord Walsingham, was a sinister genius.

0:21:010:21:05

He caught desperate Mary red-handed

0:21:050:21:08

with enough evidence to put her on trial for treason.

0:21:080:21:11

If found guilty she would be put to death,

0:21:110:21:14

but Elizabeth wouldn't do that to her own cousin, would she?

0:21:140:21:18

Would she? What a terrible dilemma!

0:21:180:21:21

# Is this a fair trial

0:21:220:21:26

# Or just a mockery?

0:21:260:21:29

# I am Queen Mary

0:21:290:21:32

# With no escape from your trickery

0:21:320:21:36

# No lawyer to depend

0:21:360:21:39

# Or witnesses to defend me

0:21:390:21:44

# Your honour

0:21:510:21:54

# I killed no-one

0:21:540:21:57

# You expect me to confess

0:21:570:22:00

# Zat I'd bump off good Queen Bess

0:22:000:22:04

# Treason

0:22:040:22:07

# I call Walsingham

0:22:070:22:10

# Lord Altringham cos these letters are fakes

0:22:100:22:15

# For me, you're going down

0:22:180:22:22

# I can prove they're real

0:22:240:22:27

# And I was Queen of Scotland once, you clown

0:22:270:22:33

# Please do not, carry on

0:22:330:22:35

# You are guilty and now admit it

0:22:350:22:39

# Mary's refusing to admit her guilt

0:22:410:22:44

# What a shock, what a shame, a complete and utter scandal

0:22:440:22:47

# Throckmorton and Babington

0:22:470:22:49

# You said Queen Bess you'd have her done in

0:22:490:22:51

-# To the scaffold!

-# To the scaffold!

0:22:510:22:53

-# To the scaffold!

-# To the scaffold!

0:22:530:22:54

# To the scaffold she must go-o-o-oo!

0:22:540:22:57

# I'm Queen, you're vile, I demand a fair trial

0:22:570:23:00

# Goodness gracious, is that the time already?

0:23:000:23:03

# Don't spare the horses, time to go home

0:23:030:23:07

# If she's guilty, then I must sentence her to die

0:23:080:23:12

# But that would make me a killer Queen so I...

0:23:140:23:18

# Scary, don't want to do this, Mary

0:23:190:23:24

# Not gonna get out of signing her death warrant-y!

0:23:260:23:30

# Her death really matters

0:23:430:23:46

# She made me enemies.

0:23:460:23:49

# Her death really matters...

0:23:520:23:55

# to me!

0:23:550:23:58

# Zat's not how my wig goes. #

0:23:590:24:03

Tragic Mary died when she was 44 years old and Elizabeth regretted

0:24:070:24:12

signing her own cousin's death warrant for the rest of her life.

0:24:120:24:16

Still, you could say Mary had the last laugh because when

0:24:160:24:19

Elizabeth died, Mary's son became King James I of England.

0:24:190:24:24

Time to say goodbye, Mary!

0:24:240:24:26

# Chatty Death, Chatty Death, my grisly interviews

0:24:280:24:33

# Chatty Death, Chatty Death, they're dead and famous too! #

0:24:330:24:37

And she said... What? Oh, we're on.

0:24:380:24:41

Hello and welcome to Chatty Death,

0:24:410:24:44

where it's time to welcome our next guest.

0:24:440:24:47

So please put your hands together, or whatever you've got left,

0:24:470:24:51

and go Mc-crazy for Mary, Queen of Scots!

0:24:510:24:56

So, Mazza, Mazza, Mazza, Mazza, Mazza, Mazza, Mazza!

0:24:590:25:03

-Can I call you Mazza?

-Call me, Mary! Queen of Scots!

0:25:030:25:06

So, Madge, let's cut to the chase.

0:25:060:25:09

How about telling us what you'd like your legacy to be?

0:25:090:25:13

-FRENCH ACCENT:

-Zat I stood up for my rightful claim to ze throne

0:25:130:25:15

against that rubbish Queen, my cousin Elizabeth.

0:25:150:25:19

-Whatever happened to her, huh?

-Well, erm, Elizabeth never married.

0:25:190:25:24

Well, I was married three times. Ah!

0:25:240:25:28

Yeah, I don't think that's better.

0:25:280:25:31

Erm, well, did she meet a sticky end?

0:25:310:25:36

If by sticky end, you mean she reigned for a glorious 44 years

0:25:360:25:39

establishing a strong England free from the rule of Rome,

0:25:390:25:41

defeated the Spanish and is remembered as possibly

0:25:410:25:44

England's greatest ever monarch, then, yeah, didn't go too well!

0:25:440:25:47

-SCOTTISH ACCENT:

-Bah! Your bums out the windae!

0:25:470:25:49

SCOTTISH ACCENT: I couldnae ha put it better myself.

0:25:490:25:51

Bah! Ah! There's summat wrong with your chair, pal!

0:25:510:25:56

What a lovely lady.

0:25:560:25:57

A fellow could really lose his head over her.

0:25:570:26:00

CYMBAL CRASH

0:26:000:26:02

If I wasn't death I'd be dying up here.

0:26:020:26:05

# Chatty Death, Chatty Death, hope next time it's not you!

0:26:050:26:08

# Hoo-hoo! #

0:26:080:26:10

Your Majesty!

0:26:120:26:14

NOOO!

0:26:140:26:16

THEY LAUGH

0:26:160:26:18

No pressure, boys! It's a...

0:26:180:26:22
