Horrible Histories presents...

Yes, the Tudors, so terrible,
even their clothes were RUFF.

BADUM-TISH!

Yeah, I know, it was a bit early
in the show for that one.

The Tudors were
an English royal family,

founded by the brilliant
King Henry VII,

whose years of prudent accounting
and sensible government

are far too boring to mention here.
LOUD YAWN

There he is, and when he died,

he couldn't pass the crown on to
his first son, Arthur,

on account of him being dead,

so Henry VII passed
the crown on to his second son,

Henry... VIII, that's it.

You know the one with
all the wife issues.

It's hard enough
finding one queen -

think how hard it must
have been finding six.

His search for a wife
did not start well.

Everyone is looking for that
special one in their life,

and for a king,
they must be royally special.

Welcome to Historical First Dates.

Henry VIII of England has
arrived for his first date.

Yeah, I'm, erm, pretty nervous,
but they tell me she's fit.

Catherine is a princess
of a powerful country

and a devout Catholic.

I just pray she's good
at real tennis.

I'm Henry. Catherine.

Oh, no. Oh, no.

She is also Henry's
dead brother's widow.

Seriously, does no-one check if the
dates were married to your brother?

Surely that's page one,

along with,
does she play real tennis?

Oh, this is a bit of
a non-starter isn't it?

I mean, the Tudor Church doesn't
even recognise in-laws as a thing,

so you're actually my sister,

and this is not ancient Egypt, so...

Yes, a total disaster.

I am the daughter of the most
powerful king in all of Europe,

and there's just not that many
people my Spanish father would be

happy with me marrying.

Your brother was perfect...
till he died.

Yeah, although, I mean, you guys
weren't married that long, were you?

Si, si, this is true.

I mean, I could ask
the Pope to say that

you weren't married long
enough for it to count.

Kind of like the four-second rule,

when you drop a biscuit on the floor
or a piece of salami. Oh, yeah.

I mean, he's bound to agree.

How hard can this be?

OK, then, brother,
we shall be married.

Maybe drop the whole brother thing,
though, yeah? Will do.

So it went pretty well?

Si, si, I shall be marrying the heir
to the throne of England, again.

I mean, for the first time.

The other first time did not count.

Good times, sis.

I mean, wife, not sis.

It's true, Henry did manage to
bend the rules so that

his brother's widow, Catherine
of Aragon, could become his wife.

They had a
daughter called

Mary, but Henry
wasn't happy.

He wanted a son to
be king after him.

He was very hard
to please.

I mean,
just watch him

getting ready
for bed.

MUSIC: Greensleeves

HENRY YAWNS

Right, an early night, I think.

Sleepy Henry VII after another
hard day's ruling over everything.

Yes, good idea, sire -
an early night.

I shall just get the list,
Your Highness.

Step one, check for assassins.

Clear!

Step two, lay down a bed of down,

and three, check that
no-one is hidden inside.

Clear!

Step four, lay pillows, sheets and
blankets and a luxury ermine cover.

Ah...

Step five, all make
the sign of the cross.

Step six, all kiss the royal bed.

KISSES SQUELCH

Er, yes, all right, that's fine.

Step seven,
sprinkle with holy water.

For goodness' sake,
I just want to go to sleep!

Whose idea was all this nonsense?

Yours, sire.

Just give it here.

I'll whip through these.

Step eight, bring near
the royal night stool.

Step nine, lay out the royal
dressing gown,

and finally step ten,

build a solid brick wall to
prevent intruders

getting anywhere near me as I sleep.

Come on!

Finally...

Ah, bliss.

BRICKS THUDDING

Shh!

COCKEREL CROWS

WALL CRUMBLES
Morning, sire. Breakfast.

Go away!

Six wives...and they
call me a rat.

Henry VIII was married
to Catherine of Aragon

for 24 years,

and with no more children,

it looked like Mary
would become queen.

But the law said
if Henry had a son,

then he would become king

even though he was younger,

because he was a boy.

Now, you might think that
sounds crazy and old-fashioned

but guess what?

That law wasn't changed until 2013.

Still, the longer
her parents went

without having a son,

the more certain Mary was
that she would become queen.

Hey, Catholic crew, Mary here.

♪DaddysLittlePrincess.

No, totally,
because Daddy is Henry VIII

and I'm the only surviving child,
so I'm going to be queen one day.

Hello.

Dad, you're so embarrassing.
Sorry, darling.

HE BLOWS A RASPBERRY
Ooh!

SHE GROWLS

OK, so Henry VIII, Dad, is saying

that his marriage to my mum

Catherine of Aragon doesn't count

because she used to be married to

his dead brother, and he's only just

realised that, like, 18 years later,

so now he's talking to the Pope

about having it cancelled
or something.

He just wants a boy to be king

after he dies.

♪HurryUpAndActuallyDie.

Popetastic news, people!

Rome said no.

In your face, Dad.

You think you can do whatever you
want just because you're king.

Well, you can't!

He can.

He's started his own church
and dumped my mum,

and now his new queen, Anne Boleyn,
is having a baby.

It so totally better not be a boy.

BABY CRIES
It's another girl! Yes!

Still heir to the throne.

No, Elizabeth is.

I made the new baby heir.

Now, do your homework.

I've done it. Well, do it again.

This is so unfair!

It's true -
in a bid to have a son,

Henry dumped Catherine
and married Anne Boleyn,

but Anne didn't
have a son either -

she had another daughter

called Elizabeth.

Great news.

Well, not really,

because Henry
still wanted a son.

It was an age of
great explorers,

and Henry was
already exploring

his options with
as much enthusiasm

as Columbus had
explored the world.

BELL RINGS
It's a new term,

and head teacher Hannah Lawrence
has just two weeks

to turn around the school,
whose last Ofsted rating was

"OMG, someone should flatten
this place and build a car park."

Welcome to Historical Educating.

I want the children to actually
connect with their subjects,

so, starting with
key stage two geography,

I'm bringing in a teacher who really
knows his subject first-hand.

-Class 7
-F's new teacher is Christopher Columbus.

Ciao, bambini. Yes, it is I,
the famous Christopher Columbus.

Wrong way, sir!

You are sitting in the
wrong place, innit?

My geographical calculations clearly
show you should be over here.

OK, Mr Columbus doesn't have
classroom experience

or a sense of direction,

but he discovered America,
for goodness' sake.

The kids can look up to him and say,

"Hey, maybe one day I can discover
a continental landmass too."

Who can tell me where you get to
if you set out from Spain, huh,

and cross the mighty ocean?

America, sir.

"America Sir"?
No, no, never heard of it.

No, it goes Spain, sea monsters,

sea dragons, Japan.

That's not Japan, sir. That's Cuba.

HE SCOFFS

Cuba...

Oh, Mexico, Latin America...

No, no, no, no, this...

This globe is all completely wrong.

GLOBE SMASHES AND CAT YOWLS
Luckily, I brought my own.

Sir, that looks a lot like a pear.

Yeah, just like the earth itself,

which is why, when I went to Japan,

I had to sail uphill, innit?

THEY LAUGH AND GROAN

It's only 23 minutes
into the new term,

and Columbus is called into
the head teacher's office.

Ah, peculiar - there's no-one here.

I'm over here.

Oh, well, according to
my calculations,

you should not be there,
you should...

Apparently your calculations
also say that the world is

pear-shaped and there's no such
place as America.

America again...
Look, there's no such place.

OK, I'll tell you what's gone
pear-shaped - this job.

You're fired.
Well, it's too late, cos I quit.

No, because I just fired you.

I can't hear what you're saying.

I am walking out of here
already, so...

That's a cupboard.

Not according to my calculations!
HE LAUGHS

Hello, Henry VIII here.

I was the second king of
the Tudor dynasty,

which ruled over England
for 120 years.

I also hold the record for eating
the most pork in one sitting...

probably. I can't imagine
anyone's eaten more.

Yes, the Tudors were
pretty legendary.

Did you know my father Henry VII
was the first to call himself

a Tudor king?

But who was the last to
call themselves a Tudor?

Was it...?

The answer is C, Henry VII.

Yes, he was the first and last.

The rest of us were so embarrassed
by the name Tudor,

we never used it.

I mean, Henry Tudor,
sort of, silly, isn't it? Boring!

Sounds like Liz Windsor
or something.

Ridiculous name for a monarch.
Oi!

Sorry, Liz.

Still desperate
for a son,

Henry decided
to try again,

and he had
his second wife

Anne Boleyn
executed.

BLADE SLICES

HEAD SQUELCHES
Ow.

So, Henry was
looking for

another wife.

Some are lucky in love -

they meet the woman of their dream

and they spend the rest of
their lives with them.

Others just chop their heads off.

King Henry is back looking for the
next next special one in his life.

The specially special,
special one.

Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi.

How's it going? Henry.

Jane Seymour.

Yup. Look, I'm, erm...

I'm sorry if I don't seem
in a great mood.

I'm just getting over a pretty
tough break-up.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
You must be heartbroken.

Yeah, well, to be fair,
it's harder on her.

I mean, she is in bits.

HENRY INHALES SHARPLY
Look, do you want to get married?

I need a male heir pretty sharpish.

Yeah? Great.

Cheque.

Henry, you look really happy.

Well, I am, you know,
really happy. Erm...

She's the best one yet.

She's a winner, a keeper.

Not a divorcee.

Not a, you know, choppy.

She's a keeper, and she's
brilliant at real tennis.

Fantastic drop shot.

Good times, I hope.

Henry VIII finally had a son,

and Prince Edward became

the new heir to the throne,

but Jane Seymour sadly died

just 12 days afterwards,

and Henry was back in the market

for a new wife.

A couple of years later

he married number four,

Anne of Cleves,

replacing her within days

with Catherine Howard,

and less than two years after that,

wife number six, Catherine Parr.

That one went pretty well,

mainly because Henry died

a couple of years later,

and now Edward VI

was the new Tudor King.

Hey, Protestant posse,
it's me, Edward,

current rightful heir, etcs.

I'm here with my big half-sis,
Lady Elizabeth.

Sup?

Yeah, so, cool, listen,
we've got some super-swag news

and some super-sad news.

Dad's dead!

Elizabeth, I was going to say that.

Edward's going to be king! Ah!

Could you...?
Right, yes, King Edward, OK?

Kedward!
I'm going to be king for ages.

Kedward's dead!

♪Boohoo again.

Queen at last!

Bad news, massive awks
between me and Lizzie-Beth,

so I had her locked in the Tower of
London just to be on the safe side.

We're still totally besties,
though, obvs, kind of.

♪QueenForever.

Queen Mary lasted five years

on the throne, but with no heirs

of her own, she was succeeded

by her younger half-sister,

Elizabeth, and Elizabeth had
the same problem as her father,

her brother and her sister.

She needed a son, and that meant
playing the dating game.

Still single, Queen Elizabeth I
is attracting a lot of attention,

but choosing someone to
marry isn't easy.

She's hoping this first date
will set her heart aflutter.

Prince Eric, how are you?

I have date.

Fantastic. Follow me.

Your Majesty, may I present you
to your date, Prince Eric of Sweden?

Enjoy your date.

Thank you.

Hello.

Would you like to be
my husband, wife, happy face?

No. Just no.

Fred!

Your Majesty. Take him away.
At once.

Thank you. Come here.

Are you going to eat them?
Come here!

Long before Elizabeth was
on the hunt for true love,

explorers flocked to South America
to hunt for gold.

They would destroy everything
in their way to get it,

and had a habit of
killing the locals,

so the locals came up with
a clever idea to save themselves.

PARROT SQUAWKS

Sorry I'm late, babes.

Oh, it's all right, it's quiet.

Only a couple through so far.

Oh, hold on, here comes another lot.

Still no sign of these
cities of gold, Gonzalo.

FLY BUZZES

I'm beginning to doubt that
they even exist, to be honest.

But cities of solid gold, compadre,

why would the locals make that up?

FLY BUZZES
I don't know, but either way,

I think that we should

call off the search

and just burn down their villages

and steal all their stuff

like normal, please.

FLY BUZZES
Greetings, godlike warriors.

Seek you the fabulous cities of gold
that shine like the sun?

All right, don't overcook it.

Si, I, Gonzalo Pizarro, seek
the legendary city of El Dorado.

FLY BUZZES
I do that as well.

He does too.

It's down that path, away from our
village, and then you turn left

and then walk for about a week,
and then you climb over

the mountain, swim through
the Malaria-Infested Water -

don't worry about the name -

and then it's just up
there on the right.

I'm going to be richest man
in Spain! Ha-ha!

No, it was a left. Oh!

No!

There is also a tribe of Amazonian
river women who really like kissing.

Oh. I like kissing too! Yeah.

Oh, which way from the path?

Right. Left.

Seems simple enough. Let's go!

Those Spanish explorers never did
find the lost city of gold,

mainly because it didn't exist,

but that didn't stop others
looking, too,

including some famous
British pirates.

Oh, sorry, not pirates, explorers.

And they made a fortune,
not from El Dorado

but from stealing gold
from other people's boats,

which is totally not
what pirates do,

and lots of them came from
one particular place.

And absolutely no gold.

Yeah, I just said that. All right.

Oh, them penguins -

Anyway, my son says he doesn't want

PENGUINS SQUAWK

Hello, I'm Queen Liz I.

Now, during Tudor times
we rarely took baths,

so, as you can imagine,

our underwear must have been
really rather smelly,

but what did I do with my royal
stockings after I'd worn them?

Did I...?

The answer is

B, I very generously gave them
to my servants as presents.

Here you are.

SHE SNIFFS

SHE THUDS
Well, that's Christmas sorted, then.

Stockings for everyone. Ha!

18 years later, and with her
youthful looks now fading,

Queen Elizabeth is
on a first date with

teenage heir to the French throne,

Francis of Anjou.

Is he the man she's been
looking for?

Mother says I'm not
allowed to have wine.

SHE CHUCKLES

Oh, OK.

Orange squash it is, then.

Ah, oui.

So, will you be seeing
Francis of Anjou for a second date?

Well, I'm not getting any younger,
and he's quite attractive

in a youthful way,
so I've sort of agreed to marry him,

and when I die, France will rule
England, and then...

Oh, no, hang on.

Francis, you're dumped!

Ah, I remember Ratalie
and my first date.

We had a sewer picnic of rotten
fruit beside a river of poo and wee.

Ah, I can still see it,
and smell it.

It was perfect.

But it wasn't perfect for Elizabeth.

She was running out of time
to find a Tudor heir,

and after Elizabeth, the whole
Tudor dynasty came to an end.

But that's not to say
she didn't find love, of sorts.

That's right,
I'm married to England.

Suits me just fine.

No snoring in bed,
and I think it means that

everyone in the country
has to buy me a present,

so win-win.

Farewell, Your Majesty,

but, hang on,
before you say goodbye to us Tudors,

there's just time to see
this fantastic Tudor sketch,

written by CBBC competition winner,
Abigail.

It's all about one of
King Henry VIII's odd laws.

Enjoy.

KNOCK AT DOOR
Arrow inspector, open up.

KNOCKING CONTINUES

Hello, come in.

Right, you two,
you know the law.

All menfolk up to the age of 60
must each have a bow

and four arrows in the house to
protect in case of invasion.

His Majesty King Henry VIII
commands it.

One bow and four arrows, sir.

Ready and willing to protect
king and country, sir.

ARROW INSPECTOR LAUGHS
You're a bit young,

but I like your spirit, lad.

Right, well, thanks very much

Yeah.

Top of the range, this.

Well, that just

No, no, this...

This is state of the art
in the arrow world.

One of the sharpest arrows
on the market, this.

All the pros are using this one.

How about this?
That looks like a candle.

Yeah, yeah, I know,
because it's covered in wax.

It makes it more aerodynamic,
flies quicker.

Oh, right.

What about this one, then?
That's just a loaf of bread.

THEY LAUGH
Bread!

No, no, this is just blunt.

Needs a bit of a sharpen
and then, seriously,

when you get this...

Robin Hood would use these.

Oh, right. Very good, then.

Hold on, I said four arrows.

That's only three.

There you go, four arrows.

Right, that's it,
these ain't arrows at all.

Unless you are a judge
or a churchman,

or you've got a doctor's note,
you'll have to pay a fine.

I can get a doctors note,
