00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,360
Dr John Dee,
who is some sort of wizard?

I give him?

'Tis I, Lord Byron, Romantic poet
and all-round fashion icon.
278
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,440
I was one of the most famous people
of the 19th century,
279
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,640
and my fashion sense
was off the hook.
280
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,360
But what was my most
famous accessory?
281
00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:45,240
Was it...?
282
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,800
And the answer is B.
283
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,240
My most famous accessory was
a mug made from a human skull.
284
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,240
When my best friend Percy Shelley
was cremated, I even asked
285
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,240
if I could keep his skull,
but was refused!
286
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,680
I wonder why? Oh, well. Cheers.

00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,040
and welcome to the outdoor toilet
in my local pub,
544
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,320
The Michie Tavern.
545
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,440
Now, what do you think
this rope was used for?
546
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,880
Was it...?
547
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,360
The answer is, of course, C.
548
00:23:48,360 --> 00:23:49,920
The landlord put it here
549
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,800
because people kept falling
bum-first into the big pooing hole.
550
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,160
Now, obviously, I'm one of
the smartest men in all of America
551
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,400
so I'm not going to fall bum-first
into any...
552
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,640

Sadly now, though,
we have to say goodbye to Holly H.
560
00:24:22,360 --> 00:24:25,080
Thanks for having me, Rattus.
It's been...
561
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,800
..smelly but fun. Mm.
562
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,520
Before you go,
I've got an idea for a movie.
563
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,360
I'd like to run it past you,

Rattus, if you want to make a film,
573
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,920
you're going to have to come up
with something original!
574
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,680
Should have made a film
in Victorian times,
575
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,040
everything was original then
576
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,200
because they were making
the very first films.
