1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:04,320

Slimy Stuarts, more Victorian

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,040

Dingy castles, daring knights

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,800

Cut-throat Celts, awful Egyptians

4
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:12,320

Punishment from ancient times

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:13,880

Rotten rank and ruthless

6
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:15,240

Savage, fearsome, toothless

7
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,000

Mean and measly Middle Ages

8
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:19,440


9
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,320


10
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,160


11
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:31,880


12
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,600
Horrible Histories presents
Ludicrous Landmarks.

13
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,080
Behold, the Pyramids of Giza,

14
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,720
arguably the most famous landmarks
in the world.

15
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,840
They have been built
by a single family of Pharaohs

16
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,000
as ginormous, pointy royal tombs.

17
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:57,040
The third and final one,
built by Pharaoh Menkaure,

18
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,040
has taken thousands of people
working in teams

19
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,120
decades to build.

20
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,080
Now, that's really been quite a task.

21
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:08,320
VOICEOVER: Previously
on The Ancient Apprentice,

22
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,560
the two teams chose their names.

23
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,880
We are the Friends of Menkaure.
Right.

24
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,480
We are the...
Drunkards of Menkaure.

25
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,040
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, that's not our name.

26
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:20,120
We have a different name.

27
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:21,960
I'm already drawing
the hieroglyphics.

28
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,000
(BURPS)

29
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,640
ANNOUNCER: ..before Pharaoh Menkaure
set them a pointed task.

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,080
Teams, your task is to build me
a pyramid right here

31
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,600
in the same location as my father
and my grandfather's pyramids.

32
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,920
For this task,
you have about 30 years.

33
00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:40,960
What?

34
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,240
It's literally
the challenge of a lifetime.

35
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:44,320
Off you go.

36
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,200
Let's do this.
I'm going to be project manager.

37
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:47,440
Did he say 30 years?
Yes.

38
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,560
Thousands of workers began building.

39
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,080
Yeah, me and Pharaoh Manchego
are getting on brilliantly.

40
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,440
I mean, he sees a lot of me in him,
I think.

41
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,480
Um, is it Pharaoh Manchego?
That's a cheese, isn't it?

42
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,080
I called him Pharaoh Manchego.

43
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,600
And tensions flared
as the years passed.

44
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,160
What do you want done
with this rock?

45
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,440
If the Friends of Menkaure
think they can beat us,

46
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:08,480
they're in de-Nile...

47
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,160
Just give that to me.
..like the river.

48
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,520
I'm building pyramids, OK.

49
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,320
I can't think of
a better joke than that.

50
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,040
Come on, please, we're on
a deadline, we've got 28 years left.

51
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,200
Friends of Menkaure
might be our team name,

52
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,320
but we are not here to make friends.

53
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,240
The other team might as well
not bother trying

54
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,560
because, like a pyramid without
a roof, it's absolutely pointless.

55
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,640
Recently, the Drunkards
suffered a workplace incident.

56
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,160
(SCREAM, THUD)

57
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:34,200
Ashedou fell in a pit.

58
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,720
That was not on purpose.

59
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,680
Now, decades later,
it's back to the boardroom

60
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,280
to see who will make the final
of The Ancient Apprentice.

61
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:44,440
You're fired.

62
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:46,480
Good morning.

63
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,840
Good morning, Pharaoh Menkaure.
Good morning, Pharaoh Manchego.

64
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,080
Right, Nadia,

65
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,800
it says here you ordered

66
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,760
100,000 blocks of limestone
for your section.

67
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,160
Why'd you do that

68
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,760
when you've only got space
for 10,000 blocks?

69
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,240
OK, can I just say,
Pharaoh Menkaure,

70
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:07,080
I correctly estimated that we would
need to order 10,000 blocks,

71
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,280
and 10,000 in hieroglyphs
is a finger.

72
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:16,240
But Omari here got bored and drew
a tadpole, which is 100,000.

73
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,040
So, being totally honest,
Omari let us down.

74
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,600
What?
Right. I've come to my decision.

75
00:03:23,640 --> 00:03:25,800
Omari, you're fired.

76
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,880
Thank you very much for this
opportunity, Pharaoh Manchego.

77
00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:33,600
With two apprentices left
and years of building still to go,

78
00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:37,320
Pharaoh Menkaure is about to add
a big surprise twist...

79
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,600
(COUGHS AND SPLUTTERS)

80
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,360
..by dying, long before the pyramid
can be finished.

81
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,280
Is this part of the task?

82
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,400
He's dead. Can we pretend
that I wasn't fired, please?

83
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,080
No.
Absolutely not.

84
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,200
Next time, in the final,
the remaining apprentices

85
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,680
are tasked with removing
the Pharaoh's organs

86
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:56,920
and mummifying him.

87
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,880
So we stick this up his nose
and pull his brains out?

88
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,560
(GULPS)
No, I'm better than this. I quit.

89
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,760
And so Badru has won
the Ancient Apprentice.

90
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,120
This does not feel like a win.

91
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:10,280
(SQUELCH)

92
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,920
Ew! So gross.

93
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,880
Welcome to one of Britain's
best-known landmarks -

94
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,680
Stonehenge in Wiltshire.

95
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,320
Landmarks are famous buildings
or places which people can use

96
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,240
to help tell where they are.

97
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:28,440
I made my own mark
on the land earlier...

98
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,680
(FARTS)

99
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,600
Although I'm not sure that counts.

100
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,000
MAN: Oh, what have I just
trodden in?!

101
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,040
(GASPS)

102
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,600
Stonehenge is a bit of a mystery.

103
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,440
We don't really know
what it was built for,

104
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,720
but it's actually older
than the Pyramids of Giza

105
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,120
and was originally made up of

106
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,320
a circle of smaller stones
called bluestones,

107
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:48,960
until at some point in history,

108
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,960
someone decided
to give the place an upgrade.

109
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,040
Ah, you must be the architect.

110
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,600
So what do you think of
our magnificent bluestones?

111
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,000
Well, I mean, personally,

112
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,880
I'd recommend upgrading to
a much more impressive circle

113
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,080
of these huge stones
called sarsen stones.

114
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,160
I've got a model here.

115
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,120
OK, I know you're the henge guy
and everything,

116
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,280
but that is a lot smaller
than the one we've already got.

117
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,240
Right, this is just a model.
Ah...ah.

118
00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:18,960
Look, I'll show you.

119
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,800
I've got a sample of the sort of
sarsen stone we usually use.

120
00:05:21,840 --> 00:05:25,480
Alright, bring it in, lads.
Would you look at the size of that?

121
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,600
It is impressively long.

122
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,920
It's still not as high
as the ones we've got already.

123
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,520
Well, yeah, it's on its side.

124
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,360
Just sort of imagine how tall
it would look standing up.

125
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:40,880
Oh, right. I'll just tilt my head to
the side then to get a better idea.

126
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,240
It's tricky
because now the ground's moved too.

127
00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:45,200
Right. You're the leader, are you?
Yeah.

128
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,720
Point is, a circle
of these giant sarsen stones

129
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,760
would tower over the bluestone
circle you currently have.

130
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,440
It'll look fantastic.
Wow, it looks pricey.

131
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,720
I can see you don't like it.
Take it back, boys.

132
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,480
Back! We dug this up,
carved it and carried it 20 miles.

133
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,800
Yeah, I know, sorry.
Customer's always right.

134
00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:06,160
(SOFTLY) Even this one.
Unbelievable.

135
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,160
Alright, come on.
That's it. Steady, slow.

136
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,680
It's a shame, really.

137
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,680
I mean, it could have been a marvel
that stood for thousands of years.

138
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,920
Wait. You know,
I think you might be right.

139
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,280
We want to leave our mark
on this land.

140
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,800
We will build
this new and improved Stonehenge.

141
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:24,600
Bring it back.
Oh, make up your mind.

142
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,040
Do you definitely want it?
Oh, yeah.

143
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,120
Because we're gonna be ordering in
another 80 of these enormous stones.

144
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,240
Ah...80?
Give or take, yeah.

145
00:06:31,280 --> 00:06:32,920
(LAUGHS) I don't know.

146
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,640
Does it come in any other colours?
Right.

147
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,240
You need to make up your mind
because this is not going anywhere.

148
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,520
Oh. Ow! It's on my foot.

149
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:42,560
Right. Who's for lunch?

150
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,920
Oh, mind if I join you?
Hang on, wait.

151
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,040
Good luck with that.
Ah! Can you bring me back a bap?

152
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,280
(LOUD ROAR)

153
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,360
Is that a bear?

154
00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:59,360
Good evening.

155
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,680
This is your compulsory courtesy
call from the army of Emperor Qin.

156
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,920
Uh-uh, last time you lot came here,

157
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,840
you took my husband away to work on
that great big wall of yours.

158
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,520
Actually, it's several different
great big walls

159
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,800
we're joining together
to protect our northern borders.

160
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,520
But fear not, your husband
will no longer be involved.

161
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,000
Oh, well, that's wonderful news.
Because he's dead.

162
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:19,680
Please accept
this comforting pat on the head

163
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,200
completely free of charge.

164
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,200
Head pat delivered.
I can't believe he's gone.

165
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:26,960
Yes. His death was a big blow.

166
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,000
Do we get compensation?
I can't say we don't need the money.

167
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,400
Do you have any idea how many people
died building that thing?

168
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,880
We haven't got the time, money,
or, indeed, desire to hand out cash.

169
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,400
What are you doing here, then?

170
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,880
Well, your husband passed away
before the end of his shift.

171
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,920
His work was half finished,
and what good is half a wall, madam?

172
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,480
Well, he can't finish his work,
can he? He's dead.

173
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:50,080
He can't, but policy does state
that we do need the work completed,

174
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,880
if not by the deceased,
then by a member of his household.

175
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,240
But we've got no children or...

176
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,760
You don't mean me?
Widows are acceptable.

177
00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:59,840
I'm grieving.

178
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,280
Fresh air and exercise
are very good for that.

179
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,960
And at least your husband
made it to the wall.

180
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,800
It's a long, hard journey,
and a lot of people die on the way.

181
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,960
Are you saying I might not even
survive the journey?

182
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,560
Not with that attitude, you won't.

183
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,320
But good news -
as soon as you arrive,

184
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,080
you'll receive
a big bowl of sticky rice.

185
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,680
Oh! At least we'll be well-fed.
Oh, it's not to eat.

186
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,240
It's one of the things we use
to stick the bricks together.

187
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,280
Come on.

188
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,360
This Great Wall of China
won't build itself.

189
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,000
What will you do when you retire?

190
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,400
Well, if you were to ask
our next guest,

191
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,960
63-year-old Annie Edson Taylor,

192
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,800
you might be surprised
by the answer.

193
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,760
Annie was hoping to
raise some money for charity,

194
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:46,280
and so she came up with a smashing,
or should I say, splashing idea.

195
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:50,680
Jenny is in 1901, beside one of
the world's most famous landmarks,

196
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,640
the Niagara Falls,
so let's see what she's up to.

197
00:08:53,680 --> 00:08:54,680
Jenny.
Jenny.

198
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,360
Annie, how's it going?

199
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,200
Well, my cat survived going over
Niagara Falls in a barrel,

200
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,000
so I think they're ready to go.
I'm sorry.

201
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:07,000
It sounded like you sent your cat
over the falls in a barrel.

202
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,760
Yes.
That's horrible.

203
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,480
How would you like to be
sent over the falls in a barrel?

204
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,640
Oh, yes. No, so that is the plan,
Jenny, I'm doing it for charity.

205
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:17,520
I had the barrel especially made.

206
00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:19,400
It's got a cushion to sit on
and everything.

207
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,080
It says Queen of The Mist.

208
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,240
The mist is what people call the
spray at the bottom of the falls.

209
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,680
Wish me luck. Woop woop! Woo!

210
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:31,720
This elderly lady

211
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:37,240
is about to fall 158m
down a waterfall in a barrel.

212
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,640
We even have in-barrel footage

213
00:09:39,680 --> 00:09:42,800
and I'm sure
everything will be fine.

214
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:43,920
Here we go.

215
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,120
Wow. That was quite a bump.

216
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,800
Still, I was expecting it to be
much worse than...

217
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,320
(YELLS)

218
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:54,640
Oh.

219
00:09:54,680 --> 00:09:59,080
Uh... And we're just hearing that
Annie has survived the drop.

220
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,880
She's out of the barrel,
and she's back on dry land.

221
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,320
Are you OK, Annie?
Sorry. Am I the right way up?

222
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,400
You certainly are,
you little daredevil.

223
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,400
And I dare say you've raised
loads of money for charity.

224
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,600
What charity was it again?
Well, the charity was me.

225
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,160
My inheritance has run low
and I don't want to be poor, Jenny.

226
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,480
Going over Niagara Falls
in a barrel

227
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,920
seemed like the obvious way
to make a bit of money.

228
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,760
So the people watching
had to pay?

229
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,480
Well, I was hoping
they'd pay after I finished

230
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,320
but most of them seem to have left
by the time I got out of the barrel.

231
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,560
So you didn't make any money at all?
Not enough to retire on, no.

232
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:38,120
But hey-ho, I can always
take my barrel on a tour.

233
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,320
People will pay to see that.

234
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,640
Oh, no no, my manager
is stealing my barrel.

235
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:45,360
No, no!

236
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,200
There are many huge
natural landmarks

237
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,440
like Niagara Falls and Mount Everest.

238
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:59,440
But behind every human-made landmark
is the architect who designed it.

239
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,000
And they can have some odd ideas
about things to include.

240
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,440
VOICEOVER:
Headteacher Ruth Thomas

241
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,520
needs a new art and design teacher

242
00:11:06,560 --> 00:11:10,600
after Mr Braithwaite
chose to fart and resign.

243
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,200
Welcome to Historical Educating.

244
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,320
Mr Braithwaite's stand-in

245
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,880
is one of the most prolific
architects in British history.

246
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,920
He'll be a breath of fresh air,

247
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,480
which is something
we could do with around here.

248
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,320
Class 7F's new teacher
is Sir Christopher Wren.

249
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,680
Morning, class.

250
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,280
CLASS: Good morning,
Mr Sir Christopher Wren.

251
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:39,480
Now, today I would like you all
to design a new building.

252
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,920
Can it be any sort of building?
No. It must be exultant.

253
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:49,920
It must be geometrically sublime.
And it must have pineapples.

254
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,600
There's no building that
can't be improved with a pineapple.

255
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,080
Which is why,

256
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,400
when I was asked to renovate
the old Saint Paul's Cathedral...

257
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,240
Bam. ..68-foot pineapple on top.
Woo!

258
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:02,720
Uh, unfortunately,

259
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,880
the old building burned down
in the Great Fire of London

260
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,080
before I could actually
stick a pineapple on it,

261
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,920
but I was asked to design
the new Saint Paul's Cathedral.

262
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,280
So... Bam!

263
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,640
Two pineapples. Woo woo!

264
00:12:14,680 --> 00:12:16,040
Ah! You love it.

265
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,840
I can see you love it.

266
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:22,560
Apparently, pineapples were really
rare and expensive in Mr Wren's day.

267
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,800
Not bad. Something
very conspicuously missing there.

268
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,480
Someone hasn't understood
the assignment.

269
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:32,960
Right... No, no, no, no.
OK, where's the pineapple?

270
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,280
Come on, people, I once designed
a building with 48 pineapples on it.

271
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,200
And you, you can't even
draw a house with one.

272
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,960
Pineapple!

273
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,720
Mr Wren's bananas about pineapples.

274
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,480
Exciting news, class.

275
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:52,200
I've decided to design you
a new pineapple...school.

276
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,240
Now, who wants to help me
knock down the old one?

277
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,280
(CHEERING)

278
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,280
Uh, what on earth's going on?

279
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:00,480
Thank you, Mr Wren.

280
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,800
Your services
are no longer required.

281
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,440
What about just two pineapples
on top of the science block?

282
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,200
Or one massive one
on top of the gym?

283
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,240
No?
No.

284
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,720
They loved it.
No pineapple, no passing.

with Anne Marx.

287
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:24,600
I'm here at the Taj Mahal
in 17th-century Agra, India.

288
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,400
This monument was built by
the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan

289
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,680
as a tribute to his late wife.

290
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,760
It took 17 years to construct

291
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,960
using builders and materials
from all across Asia.

292

(ELEPHANT BELLOWS)
Oh, hello.

293
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,880
Not to mention,
thousands of elephants.

294
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,680
Shah Jahan, it must give you
great pleasure to look at.

295
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,360
Ah, yes, it's very nice.

296
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,840
Although I'd enjoy
looking at it more

297
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,080
if my son hadn't have
locked me up in here

298
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,840
in order to take over my kingdom.

299
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,920
Ha! Little tyke,
chip off the old block.

00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,840
is going to be the wonder
of Barcelona, Senor Gaudi,

311
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,880
but it is taking a long time.

312
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:33,520
A long time, yes, but look at
the quality of my lifelike statues.

313
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:38,320
Yes. How do you do that?
I base them on real people.

314
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,560
Stop! Don't move.

315
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,000
I shall use your likeness
for my next statue.

316
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,320
Senor Gaudi,
we need to speed things up.

317
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,880
At this rate, we'll still be building
this place in a hundred years.

318
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,480
That's great.
What is?

319
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,560
Your look of frustration.

320
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,880
It will be perfect
for my statue of Joseph

321
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,840
being turned away from the inn

322
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,760
while his wife, Mary, is pregnant
with the little baby Jesus.

323
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,560
Please don't use the workers
as your models.

324
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,800
Use the locals,
like that shepherd yesterday.

325
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:04,840
(SHEEP BLEATS)

326
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,000
OK, no more sketching.

00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,080
(MEN GRUNT)

328
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,920
But their pose will be perfect for
the figures carrying the crosses.

329
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:14,040
Don't move!

330
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,880
(GROANING) Ah!
You said no more sketching.

331
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,000
I'm not going to sketch,
I'm going to take a plaster cast

332
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,040
of his face.

333
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,840
Breathe in.
Wait. No!

334
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,040
Ah!

335
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,640
I did say breathe in.

336
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,000
Oh, well,
there goes another one.

337
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,680
Where is the donkey, anyway?

338
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,720
He's supposed to move
the heavy stuff.

339
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:36,800
(DONKEY BRAYS)

340
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,120
Why is the donkey up there,
covered in plaster?

341
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,680
I tried to do it on the floor,
but the donkey wouldn't stay still.

342
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:45,920
You can have it back
when the plaster's set.

343
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,200
(DONKEY FARTS)

344
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,800
Hmm. Must have left a hole
at the back.

345
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,640
You are slowing the work down.

346
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,080
My client is God
and he is not in a hurry.

347

(GOOSE HONKS)

348
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:56,320
Ooh!

349
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,280
Ugh, you're going to make a plaster
cast of that goose, aren't you?

350
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,720
Come here, goosey.
This will never be finished.

351
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,400
(DONKEY FARTS)
Ah.

352
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:10,240
Gaudi never did finish
his cathedral in Barcelona.

353
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:15,680
And over 100 years later,
it's still being built today.

354
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,240
While most landmarks
have become very popular,

355
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,000
they weren't always welcomed
when they were built,

356
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,760
like when
the suffragettes of New York

357
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,560
took issue with
a certain Lady of Liberty

358
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,080
at her unveiling
by designer Frederick Bartholdi

359
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,400
and American President
Grover Cleveland.

360

BARTHOLDI: Greetings,
Monsieur le President.

361

Or should I say, "Wassup?"

362
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:46,320
On behalf of the French people,
I present to you my artistic work,

363
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,200
the Statue of Liberty.

364
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,840
Wow! What a truly impressive statue,
Monsieur Bartholdi.

365
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:52,880
What?

366
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,720
And now for something
even more impressive,

00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:55,880

368
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:01,480
A statue of Liberty
for a land of liberty.

(WOMEN JEER)

00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,000
Liberty for who?
Give us the vote, you big hypocrite!

371
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,800
Yeah, so we can vote
for someone else.

372
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,760
Liberty! We're not even at liberty
to come to your party.

373
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:19,560
One of the only women you invited
is 300ft high and made of copper.

374
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:23,440
Awkward.
You're not being very ladylike.

375
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,760
This is what we think
of being ladylike.

Oh, no, she didn't.
(WOMEN CHEER AND LAUGH)

379
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,600
Making a woman the Statue of Liberty

380
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,000
when women aren't even
at liberty to vote

381
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,600
is the biggest un-liberty
I've ever heard of.

No.

(WOMEN JEER)
A perfect compromise.

388
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,400
They are at liberty
to make as much noise as they want,

389
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,000
while I, as president,

390
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,560
am at liberty to fire cannons
so I don't have to listen to 'em.

391
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,200

I would prefer to be with them.

for one more on this boat?

Au revoir!
Where are you going?

394
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,360
Hello, my name is Joshua Cross,
and on October 16th, 1834,

395
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,080
I played an important part
in the redesign

396
00:18:20,120 --> 00:18:24,480
of one of Britain's
most famous buildings, Parliament.

397
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,120
And this is  what
it used to look like.

398
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,320
But tell me, what role did I have

399
00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:32,360
in the redesign
of this amazing landmark?

400
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:33,440
Did I...

401
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,280
The answer is...

402
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,800
A - I burned the whole place down
by accident.

403
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,240
It's a bit awks, actually.

404
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,920
My job was to burn
something called tally sticks

405
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,880
in the furnaces inside Parliament.

406
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,960
One day,
me and my friend Patrick

407
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,480
decided to go and have a beer
while they were burning.

408
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,520
Then we forgot about them
and the whole place burned down.

409
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:05,680
Luckily, no one died

410
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,680
and it led to Parliament
being rebuilt

411
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:08,920
like you know it today.

412
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,960
So in a way, it was a good thing.

VOICEOVER: Historic Landmarks
with Anne Marx.

417
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,320
I'm here at the Eiffel Tower in 1889

418
00:19:28,360 --> 00:19:30,480
with its brilliant visionary...

419
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:34,280
And adorable.
..designer Gustave Eiffel.

420
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,560
When it was completed,
standing at 300m tall,

421
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,840
the tower was the highest building
in the world.

422
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,600
And it was loved by all of Paris.

423
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,720
A little bit like myself.

424
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:46,880
Bonjour, Eiffel fans!

425
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,680
Actually, a lot of people
didn't like it at all.

00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:50,800
We're going there, are we?

427
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,000
Many French artists
signed a letter saying they hated it,

428
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,880
and some of them wanted to
replace the top of the tower

429
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,240
with a giant naked statue.

430
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:00,680
They have no sense of history,

431
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,200
tradition or spectacle.

a pretty good statue, right?

435
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,200

436
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,280

No.
Go with it.

00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,440
Be part of it.
No.

440
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,120
So, this is Historic Landmarks

Isn't the Eiffel Tower amazing?

443
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:32,400
But some famous landmarks
have pretty gruesome pasts,

444
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,000
like the Colosseum in Rome, Italy.

445
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,080
Although it's now
a famous tourist hotspot,

446
00:20:38,120 --> 00:20:41,280
it was once a place that,
unless you were in the audience,

447
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,840
you really didn't want to go.

448
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,840
Put it this way, a lot of the
performers only got to do one show

449
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,160
and it was short and painful.

00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,280
so the horses and bulls
have to swim.

467
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,680
We did that
in the first games we held here.

468
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,360
Who don't want to see that?

469
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,320
But if animals ain't your thing,

470
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:40,680
we got people too.

471
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,320
Gladiators, magicians,

472
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:43,960
acrobats and criminal types

473
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,080
being torn apart
by wild bears.

474
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,880
And it's real good value for money.

475
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,280
Some shows last for over 100 days,

476
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,560
so come on down,
have the time of your life

477
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,160
while a bunch of animals
and slaves lose theirs.

478
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:58,680
Any risk to spectators
is the responsibility

479
00:21:58,720 --> 00:21:59,720
of spectators themselves

480

by Flavian Entertainment Ltd.

481

Tickets for the second day
cannot be guaranteed

482
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:04,720
as the animals
may not survive the first.

483
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,080
So what are you waiting for?

484
00:22:06,120 --> 00:22:09,280
Get yourself down
to the amphitheatre, why don't you?

485
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,240
We got everything you want to see.

486
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,920
Plus a whole bunch of stuff
you really don't.

489

Welcome to my historical
crafting channel, Stuff On A Stick.

490
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:26,920
My guest this week

491
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,840
is the head keeper of London Bridge.

492
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,040
So, I'm keeper of heads,

493
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,840
not the head of the keepers.

494
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,080
So tell us about
these amazing crafted heads.

495
00:22:38,120 --> 00:22:40,600
They're so detailed.
How do you carve them?

496
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,520
Ooh, I don't carve them.
Uh, no, no, no.

497
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:44,720
These are real heads.

498
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:47,800
That's Thomas Cromwell.

499
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,440
We've also had in William Wallace,

500
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:50,640
Thomas Moore.

501
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:51,720
It's mostly traitors.

502
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,200
We display them on sticks
on London Bridge

503
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,160
so anyone crossing the bridge
can see what happens

504
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:57,680
when you double cross the king.

505
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:58,960
Don't do it.

506
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,000
This is horrific.
It's also very popular.

507
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,040
And the bridge has become
a real tourist attraction

508
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:04,520
thanks to these naughty noggins.

509
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:05,560
Naughty noggin.
Naughty noggin.

510
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,320
You've got to go back
on the bridge soon.

511
00:23:07,360 --> 00:23:09,320
"I don't wanna go back
on the bridge."

512
00:23:09,360 --> 00:23:11,280
Well, you've got to, naughty noggin.
Naughty noggin.

513
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,360
Bit of fun.

514
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,920
How do you stop them from rotting
and falling apart?

515
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,560
It's a very delicate,
artistic and refined process.

516
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,480
Well, I suppose
you better talk us through it.

517
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,320
Fantastic. Yeah.
Step one, boil your old head.

518
00:23:22,360 --> 00:23:24,760
Boiling the head
stops it from rotting.

519
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,080
Have a whiff of that.

520
00:23:26,120 --> 00:23:27,880
Fresh as the day I boiled him.

521
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,400
I'm gonna be sick.
Well, don't be sick on that, please.

522
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:31,440
Because that is step two.

523
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:32,840
Step two - dip 'em in tar.

524
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,280
To stop the birds from making off
with the eyes as a tasty snack.

525
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,520
Lovely.
Step three, stick it on a stick.

526
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:41,720
The finishing touch

527
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,600
is just put it on a stick
or a spike or a pike.

528
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,480
It doesn't really matter
as long as it's sharp and pointy.

529
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,520
Yeah, well, you get the idea.
And voila!

530
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,920
Heads up on how to get these
banging bonces looking their best.

531
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,160

535
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:10,120
I am the French General
Napoleon Bonaparte.

536
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,920
It is the end of the 18th century
and France is at war with Portugal,

537
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:18,200
Russia. Austria, Britain,
bits of Italy, and I think Malta,

538
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:19,440
which is weird.

539
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,520
And in 1798 I took 40,000
magnificent French soldiers

540
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:24,680
to capture Egypt.

541
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,160
But my main enemy is boredom.

542
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,120
Bottom?
Boredom.

543
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,440
Ah, oui, oui, yes, boredom.
This must be tamed.

544
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,280
So how did I keep myself
and my soldiers entertained?

545
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,720
Did I, A - order my men to re-dig

546
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,120
the 200km-long canal
of the Pharaohs?

547
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,560
B, get my men to race
up and down the pyramids?

548
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,240
Or C, build a giant arena
with 105 columns

549
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:52,800
and a huge obelisk in the centre
inscribed with Heroes of France?

550
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:58,600
It was a trick question.
(LAUGHS) I did all three of them.

551
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:02,800
My people also found
the Rosetta Stone,

552
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,200
which helped unlock the meaning
of the Egyptian hieroglyphics.

553
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,760
You see, Napoleon Bonaparte
can do anything...

554
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,160
Sir, there is trouble in France
and British ships are approaching.

555
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,320
..and right now
is heading back to France.

556
00:25:15,360 --> 00:25:16,360
Gotta go.

557
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:17,480
Oh!

558
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,680
I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine.

559

The Great Pyramids of Giza

560
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,880
are actually
the only surviving example

561
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,800
of the so-called
Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

562
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:33,840
The other six are no longer around.
But what were they?

563
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:39,360
Luckily, we have an absolute banger
to tell you all about them.
