00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:05,760
# Slimy Stuarts, vile Victorians
Woeful wars, ferocious fights
3
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:07,040
# Dingy Castles, daring Knights
4
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,680
# Horrors that defy description
Cut-throat Celts, awful Egyptians
5
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:11,160
# Vicious Vikings, cruel crime
6
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:12,560
# Punishments from ancient times
7
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:13,920
# Romans, rotten, rank and ruthless
8
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:15,280
# Cavemen, savage,
fearsome, toothless
9
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:16,720
# Groovy Greeks, brainy sages
10
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:18,080
# Mean and measly Middle Ages
11
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:20,640
# Gory, ghastly, mean and cruel
12
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,400
# Stuff they don't
teach you at school
13
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,200
# The past is no longer a mystery
14
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:31,400
# Welcome to...Horrible Histories. #
15
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,600
Horrible Histories presents...
16
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,440
Hey! Yes, it's me, Guy Fawkes.
17
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,120
You know, Bonfire Night.
18
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,120
You have Bonfire Night thanks to me.
You're welcome.
19
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,840
Although if I'm honest, the whole
country celebrating the fact
20
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,480
I got captured and my plans ruined,
it's a little hurtful,
21
00:00:51,480 --> 00:00:54,680
especially as I'm currently
locked in the Tower Of London.
22
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,480
How did I get here?
I'll tell you the story,
23
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,160
and it actually all begins
70 years before I got caught.
24
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:05,120
Henry VIII decided he wanted to
divorce his wife Catherine
25
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,720
and marry Anne Boleyn,
26
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,080
which the Catholic Church,
run by the Pope, wouldn't allow.
27
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,520
I'll let him tell you all about it.
28
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,760
This track is an absolute banger.
29
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,800
# The Pope is a guy
God thinks is fine
30
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,480
# He's also a real good friend
of mine
31
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,040
# Defender of the faith he calls me
32
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,760
# Cos I'm such a great Catholic -
see?
33
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,520
# Then I got bored of Catherine
34
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,040
# And I wanted to marry Anne
35
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,600
# Then the Pope said
cos I'm Catholic
36
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,800
# I gotta be a one-woman man
37
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,840
# So no, I don't want no pope
38
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,000
# The Pope is a guy that
can't get no love from me
39
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,040
# Gonna split from the Catholics
40
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,160
# Now the head of the English Church
41
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:48,840
# Is me. #
42
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,080
I can die happy, pass the Church on
to my Protestant son.
43
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,960
Give 'em hell, Edward!
44
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,800
HE COUGHS
45
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:01,960
HE GROANS
46
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,440
Awkward.
47
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:04,800
Mary time.
48
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,600
# Then brother Eddie perished
49
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,160
# And now the country's mine
50
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,600
# And cos I was brought up Catholic
I'll change it back one more time
51
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,800
# Cos oh, how I love the Pope
52
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,160
# The Pope is the guy
who reps my God for me
53
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,360
# And if you don't agree
that's totally fine
54
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,280
# I'll just burn you for heresy. #
55
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,680
Lizzie in the house, yes...
56
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,360
# Now Mary died, the country's mine
57
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,960
# How will we pray, I must decide
58
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,480
# Born Protestant
Raised with Catholics
59
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,280
# I really can see both sides
60
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,160
# Sure, if I trash the Catholics
61
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,640
# Then the whole Church is mine
62
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:51,200
# And if they don't obey me
I'll charge them a hefty fine
63
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,400
# So no, I don't want no pope
64
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,800
# The English Church
should all be about me
65
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,720
# Head of Church and state
66
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,080
# That sounds great
Call it Act Of Supremacy
67
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,440
# I don't want no pope
68
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,200
# No, sorry
69
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,320
# But what will happen
70
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:16,120
# After me? #
71
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,080
Well, I'll tell you what happened.
Get out!
72
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,120
Elizabeth didn't have any heirs,
73
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,080
so they put this guy on the throne -
King James VI of Scotland.
74
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,000
Oh, yeah, I'm gonna be
the English King.
75
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,680
Not only is his dancing irritating,
but he's a Protestant,
76
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,080
which is doubly annoying.
77
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,160
But that didn't mean us Catholics
weren't close by him...
78
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,240
..I mean VERY close.
79
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,960
Really hard to tell you this, bro.
80
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,240
The people of Greenwich are talking.
81
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,440
This isn't about me
weeing on the horse again?
82
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,440
Oh, yeah, that. But also,
83
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,920
like, maybe your wifey Anne
84
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,480
has totally secretly converted to...
85
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:10,960
..Catholicism.
86
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,200
You're wrong.
87
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,600
You're all wrong.
88
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,080
Bro!
89
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,160
Ugh...
90
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,720
Hi, babes.
91
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:23,960
You OK?
92
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,360
Hey. Um...
93
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,840
..look, first off, this is
super awkward for me.
94
00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:32,240
OK? Like, I'm not
a confrontationalist person.
95
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,360
I know. Love how chill we are,
babes. Yeah, but...
96
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,320
..this rumour about you being a...
97
00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:42,320
..secret Catholic,
98
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,400
that's making me kind of un-chill.
99
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,800
Oh, babes...
100
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,760
Uh... Are those prayer beads?
101
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:54,200
Is that a Catholic rosary? James,
you're so controlling and suspicious.
102
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,280
It's just, like, a random gift
from a good friend.
103
00:04:57,280 --> 00:04:59,920
And is that friend a Catholic?
104
00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:03,720
Um, maybe, but...
Anne! How could you?
105
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,840
How could YOU wee on a horse?
I did not wee on a horse!
106
00:05:06,840 --> 00:05:08,120
I weed OFF a horse.
107
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,160
I just so happened to be sitting
ON a horse when I did the wee.
108
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,680
It's completely different!
It's embarrassing.
109
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,080
You're a Catholic, love.
I'm this close to ordering
110
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,920
all Catholic priests to leave
the country.
111
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:24,520
GASPING: No, James! Please, don't!
That would be totes tragic.
112
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:25,960
You pushed me to it.
113
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,920
Even though I hardly even know
any Catholic priests or anything,
114
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:33,080
it's chill. Anne, babes, blessings.
Oh... Mwah, mwah.
115
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,880
Old Popey just wanted to know if
you got that rosary he sent you,
116
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,600
now you're such a massive papist?
117
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:38,640
Wait, wait, wait...
118
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,480
Those rosary beads
are from the POPE?
119
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,400
Um...maybe.
120
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:44,480
A bit.
121
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,920
Right! That's it.
All Catholic priests banned.
122
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,280
Get out of my country, mate!
123
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,560
I would ask to borrow a horse,
124
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,720
but I presume your saddle's
still drying out?
125
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,960
SHE LAUGHS
Get out!
126
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:03,600
So, what with rumours of Anne
secretly practising Catholicism,
127
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,080
and a couple of attempts
to kill King James -
128
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,880
not by me -
129
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,240
James decided to make it really hard
for us to be Catholics in England.
130
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,560
Not only could we be fined
for taking part in mass,
131
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,000
but Catholic priests were also
banned from England altogether.
132
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,560
Yeah. Sorry, Jeff, you've got to go.
133
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,840
Don't give me those puppy dog eyes.
134
00:06:24,840 --> 00:06:26,240
This is goodbye.
135
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,640
Hey... Unbelievable.
136
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,320
We Catholics were very angry
about all this
137
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,280
and some of us went over to Spain
to ask their King for help
138
00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:37,360
in getting rid of our King James,
but they refused.
139
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,360
So, it was time for me
and a few other guys
140
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,360
to take matters into our own hands.
141
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:44,840
Not you, Jeff.
142
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,280
I've seen him do weddings.
He's bad under pressure.
143
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,560
Remember, remember
the 5th of November
144
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,840
Gunpowder, treason and plot...
145
00:06:55,840 --> 00:06:58,360
Well...meet the plotters.
146
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,840
This is our leader...
147
00:07:02,840 --> 00:07:04,680
..Robert Catesby.
148
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,760
A rebel through and through,
149
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,240
the kind of bloke
that don't play by the rules.
150
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,560
See?
151
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,720
Absolute rule-breaking ledge.
152
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,440
Most of the time.
153
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,720
Then there's my mate Thomas Wintour,
154
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,560
Catesby's number two.
He's from a pretty tasty family -
155
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,320
his uncle got hung, drawn and
quartered just for being Catholic.
156
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,600
John Wright, AKA The Muscle.
157
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,280
The only thing he loves
more than Catholicism is a fight.
158
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,800
And don't forget Thomas Percy,
159
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,840
the inside man.
160
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,440
He's connected.
161
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,200
He's got money,
he's got us a safe house
162
00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:00,480
and he claims he can get us in right
under the Houses of Parliament.
163
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,480
And boom, there's me, Guy Fawkes.
164
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,760
I'm the explosives expert.
165
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,760
I'm a schemer and a soldier.
166
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,360
Sold off my family inheritance
167
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,600
and dedicated my life
to the Catholic cause,
168
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,640
and getting rid of King James.
169
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,880
I'm not afraid to be right in
the mix if things go up in smoke.
170
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,280
Gentlemen, we're here to discuss
171
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,520
overthrowing the tyrannical
government of King James,
172
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,760
and return a Catholic monarch
to the English throne.
173
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,360
Now, the plot...
Welcome to the Duck And Drake.
174
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,040
Can I get you any drinks?
175
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,440
We have wine, cider, beer, ale...
176
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,640
We're fine. I could go for an ale.
Yeah, me too.
177
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,000
Yeah. Fine.
178
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,600
Five ales. Aye!
179
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,560
So, gentlemen,
180
00:08:42,560 --> 00:08:46,080
the plan is that we kill
the King of... Yes?
181
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,040
Sorry. Why are we meeting in a pub?
182
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,600
So we don't arouse suspicion.
183
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,320
To the casual observer, we're
just friends out having a drink,
184
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,600
but we're not.
We're not friends? No.
185
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,360
We're plotters, bringing about
the downfall of the King.
186
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,360
That doesn't mean
we can't be friends.
187
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,760
I mean, you and I are related.
188
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,200
Might be nice to hang out
from time to time, you know,
189
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,440
when we're not plotting.
John and I are brothers-in-law.
190
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,160
We're not friends, but we are
family. Does that matter?
191
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,480
No! Now, back to business.
192
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,160
No-one must... Five ales!
193
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,160
THEY CHEER
194
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:22,760
Look... Once we assassinate
the King, we...
195
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,960
What do you want now? I was about
to ask you the same thing, sir.
196
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,880
What do YOU want?
Oh, er, we want to kill the King.
197
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,640
THUMP
198
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,560
The specials are on the board.
Oh, great, I'm starving.
199
00:09:35,560 --> 00:09:37,600
All right, I'll give you
a couple of minutes.
200
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,720
So, gentlemen,
once we kill the King,
201
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,800
we ride up north
to begin the revolt,
202
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,960
armed with hundreds...
Ring The Bull?
203
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,520
What? It's a game where you
toss a ring onto a bull's horns.
204
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,560
We've got it in the back.
Oh, that sounds fun.
205
00:09:53,560 --> 00:09:55,360
We're not here to play any games.
206
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,000
Yeah, right. Why would you want
to have fun with a relative
207
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,640
who it turns out doesn't even
consider you a friend?
208
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:05,200
I really misinterpreted what this
relationship... Can we PLEASE focus?
209
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:07,680
OK.
210
00:10:07,680 --> 00:10:10,840
After we kill the King,
we travel up north,
211
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,880
we kidnap James's
daughter Elizabeth,
212
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,360
we convince her to
convert to Catholicism,
213
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,760
and then we make her
Queen of England.
214
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,160
Simple! Not sure I'd call it simple.
215
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,080
Any questions? Yeah.
216
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,960
Does the pie come with veg, or
do we have to order that separate?
217
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,640
About the plot to kill the...
Carrots! What?
218
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:29,880
Somebody asked about the pie.
219
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,480
Yeah. It comes with carrots
and peas. Lovely. I'll have that.
220
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,680
Yes. Me, too. Three pies.
221
00:10:34,680 --> 00:10:35,880
ANGRILY: Mm!
222
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,280
Catesby, don't go off in a strop.
223
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,360
I'm not. I'm playing Ring The Bull.
224
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,160
Yeah, well, you need a friend
to do that.
225
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,000
You know, a friend!
226
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,360
Like we're not!
227
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,520
Apparently!
228
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,920
He really hurt my feelings
when he said that, you know?
229
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,800
HE SIGHS
230
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,440
So, during our night in the pub,
231
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,320
we came up with a plan.
232
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,600
The idea is for one group to kill
the King and his supporters
233
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,000
here in London,
234
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,200
while the rest of us gather
a rebel army in the Midlands
235
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,960
and capture King James's daughter...
Oh, hello! ..Princess Elizabeth,
236
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,280
so that when he's killed,
we can put HER on the throne
237
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,080
as our puppet.
SQUEAK
238
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,680
Not THAT kind of puppet. Out!
239
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:15,720
Oh, give me strength.
240
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,120
This is where I'll be.
241
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,840
My job is to kill the King by
blowing up the Houses of Parliament.
242
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,640
Our base is here at Catesby's house
243
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,680
on the south side of the Thames.
244
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:29,040
That's where we've stored
our gunpowder.
245
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,160
It's our safe house...
246
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,320
..as long as no-one lights a match.
247
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,720
Now, we need to put the gunpowder
under this building,
248
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,400
the Houses Of Parliament, over here,
249
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,960
so we've got to get across the river
and into Parliament.
250
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,200
That's why Thomas Percy
rented us a house
251
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,000
roughly here, by Parliament's wall.
252
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:54,360
So, at night, we use boats to carry
the gunpowder across the river
253
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,600
from Catesby's house
to the house Percy's rented,
254
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,600
remembering not to light a match
along the way.
255
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,760
So now we've got the gunpowder
on the right side of the river,
256
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,200
hidden near Parliament.
257
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,400
EXPLOSION
What did I say about matches?
258
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,160
Next, we'll dig a tunnel
from the house
259
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:11,800
to the cellars underneath
Parliament,
260
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,480
and hide the gunpowder there.
261
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,320
Then, when the King comes
to open Parliament
262
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,640
in front of all his friends,
263
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,560
well, that's when it's OK
to light the match and...
264
00:12:22,560 --> 00:12:24,120
FART
OK.
265
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,120
Might need more than
one barrel of powder.
266
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,200
Let's try 1,000!
267
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,680
LOUD BANG
Too much.
268
00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:31,840
Let's say 36 barrels.
269
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,120
BANG
Perfect.
270
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,600
It's a flawless plan,
and all we have to do now
271
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,240
is dig a tunnel.
EXPLOSION
272
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,520
SIGHING: And remember
not to light any matches.
273
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,160
What could possibly go wrong?
274
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:47,480
SQUEAK
275
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,640
So, that was the plan for the plot.
276
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,960
Or possibly the plot for the plan.
277
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,720
It was pretty good in theory,
278
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,160
and we were on our way towards
blowing up Parliament
279
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,360
and with it, the King.
280
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,080
Success was just
a short tunnel away.
281
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,040
Simple, right?
282
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,720
Wrong.
283
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:15,040
Hello, and welcome to Historical
Amazingly Small Spaces.
284
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,000
Today, I'm here with Thomas Wintour,
285
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,080
Guy Fawkes and Thomas Percy,
286
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,760
who've taken on the amazing challenge
287
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,360
of extending this
Westminster basement.
288
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,280
It's a lot of hard work.
Am I right, lads?
289
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,400
Well, ever since
we rented the house...
290
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,160
That was me, actually.
That was my job. Hi.
291
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,120
..we have been digging
through the walls
292
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,080
and propping the ceiling up
with piles of wood,
293
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,280
often working 16-hour days,
294
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,280
so it's been back-breaking work.
295
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,840
But we've been well-prepared.
296
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,240
We've got huge stash of
dried meat and eggs,
297
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:47,600
so we never even have to leave...
298
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,640
LONG FART
Oh! ..which is great, obviously.
299
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,200
Could have chosen any food
for an airless, underground room
300
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,320
and he went with, um,
dried meat and eggs.
301
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,000
Bleugh, and with no windows,
302
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,680
that is going to be
trapped in here all day.
303
00:14:02,680 --> 00:14:07,040
All day. Whew. So,
what exactly is the build for?
304
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,760
So we are reinforcing
the basement walls
305
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,000
because there was water
leaking in from the Thames.
306
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,720
At least, that's what we're supposed
to say if anyone asks, right?
307
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,560
THEY LAUGH
308
00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:19,560
Doesn't the tunnel go right
underneath the House Of Lords?
309
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:20,760
How does that help?
310
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,760
Well, it helps if you're trying to
blow up Parliament.
311
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,160
LOUD KICK
Ow!
312
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,680
We had no idea what the tunnel
went under the House of Lords.
313
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,640
Well, that was the whole plan,
Guy, wasn't it? Guy?
314
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:31,240
That was the whole plan...
STICK SLAMS DOWN
315
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,280
So you're not TRYING to
dig under the House of Lords?
316
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:38,480
No. W-why, are you...
suspicious of something?
317
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,200
No, not at all. It's just,
for a second there,
318
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,680
I thought you'd rented
the wrong house.
319
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,320
NERVOUS LAUGHTER
320
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:46,840
W-what do you mean?
321
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,680
Well, um, the house next door
322
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,520
already has a cellar that goes
right under the House of Lords,
323
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,200
so you could have just
rented that one.
324
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,080
Does it?
325
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,520
Yeah, yeah. You wouldn't have
had to do any digging at all.
326
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,200
Can I have a word, please?
Sure thing, Guy.
327
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:04,600
Can have a chat about anything.
328
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,400
SHOUTING: THREE MONTHS, we've been
digging this fart-filled tunnel!
329
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,400
Sorry, I didn't know...
FARTING
330
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,920
Oh, that is eggy.
Nobody light a match.
331
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:14,480
What? Ooh.
332
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,080
There's about 20 barrels
of gunpowder
333
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,480
we've got hidden down here.
Wintour, come here!
334
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,960
SHOUTING IN BACKGROUND
Well, that is all we have time for
335
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,600
today on Historical
Amazingly Small Spaces.
336
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,880
I would just like to wish the lads
all the luck in the world with...
337
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,440
..well, to be honest,
I'm still not entirely sure
338
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,240
what it is they're doing. We're
blowing up the Houses Of Parliament.
339
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:34,880
Will you SHUT UP! All right!
340
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,800
Hello, there! Me again,
James I of England,
341
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,920
or James VI of Scotland -
you choose, I answer to both.
342
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,440
I was the innocent victim of
this foul gunpowder plot,
343
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,600
and I know, who'd want to blow up
such a lovely face as this?
344
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,760
Ugh... Some people are going to be
in a lot of trouble. Anyway,
345
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,960
there was one piece of evidence
that tipped me off
346
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,640
about the plot on November 1st,
1605.
347
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,120
But can you tell me what it was?
348
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,400
Was it, A...
349
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,760
The answer is...
350
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:18,840
..B.
351
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,160
I got hold of the Monteagle letter.
352
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,320
It was sent to Baron Monteagle
353
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,400
and it mysteriously told him to
stay away from Parliament.
354
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,840
The letter said that Parliament
would receive a terrible blow
355
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,440
and I guessed someone was
going to try and blow it up,
356
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,200
so I ordered the building
to be searched,
357
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,040
thereby saving
this handsome creature.
358
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,360
Honestly, you write one book
about catching witches,
359
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,760
and they take it so personally.
360
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:43,920
You're not a witch, are you?
361
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,560
Hello...are you a witch?
362
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,160
Seriously, come over here.
363
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:48,760
Show me... Show me your witchy eyes.
364
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,720
What? I'm not obsessed, mate!
You're obsessed!
365
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,760
OWL TOOTS
366
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,120
Fawkes. HIGH-PITCHED: Whoa!
367
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,160
Sorry to interrupt, mate.
368
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,480
Apparently some joker's trying to
blow up the Houses Of Parliament.
369
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,400
Oh... You haven't seen him around,
have you?
370
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,200
Nope.
371
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,920
OK. Fair enough.
We'll leave you to it.
372
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:23,520
Have a good night, and...
373
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,320
Hang on a second...
374
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,520
..that's a lot of firewood
to be stacking
375
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,800
right underneath
the Houses Of Parliament.
376
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,480
Is it? I wouldn't really know.
I'm just a lowly servant man...
377
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,000
..looking after a cellar
full of wood...
378
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,120
..for my boss, Thomas Percy.
379
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,880
Fair enough. Well, boys, looks like
nothing dodgy is going on here.
380
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,920
Let us know if you see
anything strange. Will do.
381
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,720
Let's go find the guy. Eh?
382
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,080
What? You said "Guy".
383
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:57,680
Is your name Guy?
384
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,840
No. What's your name?
385
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,800
John. John what?
386
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:08,640
John...son. John...Johnson.
My name's John Johnson.
387
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,560
John Johnson?
388
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:12,960
Yeah.
389
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,040
Lovely to meet you, John Johnson.
390
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,320
HEARTY LAUGH
Good to meet you, too!
391
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:19,840
Better let you get on with it.
392
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,600
Let us know if you see anyone up to
no good. Johnson's your man.
393
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,240
That was a close one.
394
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,280
Proof, if ever,
that God is on our side.
395
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,240
Nothing can stop us now.
396
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,480
CRASHING
397
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:37,840
Just one more thing...
398
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,440
Wait a second, what's all this?
399
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,000
John Johnson, you are nicked!
Drop that barrel of gunpowder!
400
00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:51,240
I don't think that would be
a very good idea.
401
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,320
You're probably right!
402
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,000
And there you have it,
fireworks fans.
403
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,920
That's why I'm here.
404
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:03,720
Yes, my race is run.
The king has me in his clutches,
405
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,520
but the rest of the guys,
Catesby and co, still on the loose.
406
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,080
Hopefully, they can
turn this thing around.
407
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,760
I mean, while they've got
some gunpowder,
408
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,200
the gunpowder plot
is still alive, baby!
409
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,600
Can't do any worse than old
John Johnson here, can they?
410
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,400
Actually, they can. Oh, come on!
411
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,120
With Guy Fawkes now captured,
412
00:19:25,120 --> 00:19:27,840
lead investigator Sheriff
Richard Walsh and his men
413
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,800
are hot on the trail of Catesby
and his fugitive crew,
414
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,840
including Thomas Wintour
and Everett Digby.
415
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,920
OK, quick recap, guys.
416
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,560
Fawkes is out of the picture,
and parliament is safe,
417
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,080
but Robert Catesby
and the rest of the conspirators
418
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,120
still want to start a rebellion.
419
00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:44,760
So let's hunt them down.
420
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,520
It's pretty obvious they'll head for
the Midlands and the weather's bad,
421
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,080
so we should look out for some
soaking wet stressed-out Catholics.
422
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,920
I'm stressed. I'm super stressed!
Everything's ruined!
423
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,560
Come on, Wintour, Digby,
everything will be fine!
424
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,200
Will it, Catesby? Will it?
425
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,120
Cos our plan's just
gone up in smoke!
426
00:20:09,120 --> 00:20:11,160
Or rather, it didn't.
That was the old plan.
427
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:15,680
Old plan? Yeah. The new plan
is that we lie low here,
428
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,480
at Holbeche House in Staffordshire,
429
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,880
drum up support, start a revolt.
430
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,400
They'll never see us coming.
431
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,320
They'll be lying low,
drumming up support,
432
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,000
trying to start a revolt.
That's standard.
433
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,760
Catesby's crew are drying out
inside Holbeche House.
434
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,680
It's going great, guys.
435
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,800
We've got hundreds of willing men.
436
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,240
All the willing men have left.
437
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,160
HE WAILS
438
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,360
Never mind.
439
00:20:42,360 --> 00:20:45,520
There are a SMALL group of
willing men who can move fast
440
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,760
and achieve a lot. I tell you what,
441
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,880
getting hold of those horses,
now THAT was a stroke of luck.
442
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,080
We've got word of some stolen horses
in Warwick.
443
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,480
Let's go and check it out.
444
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,760
There's gonna be fireworks.
445
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,200
FIREWORK BANGS
446
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:00,280
There...
447
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:01,560
Now, that...
448
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,400
..is how you dry gunpowder.
449
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:04,560
CHUCKLING
Look...
450
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,440
..I know I'm not
the explosives expert,
451
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,080
but...I'm sure there was
something to remember
452
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,560
about gunpowder and fire.
453
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,800
How else are you meant to dry it?
Well, I dunno!
454
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,160
It doesn't work if it's wet.
We didn't have much of a choice.
455
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:17,240
Don't worry,
456
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,480
it's perfectly safe...
EXPLOSION
457
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,040
Oh, my eyes, I can't see!
458
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,320
Come on!
459
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,320
THEY COUGH
460
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,520
Come on, man! Surely you can see
that the plan is still there!
461
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,960
I can't see anything any more!
Calm down! They'll never find us.
462
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:34,640
We found them.
463
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,640
Do you think we should just...
give up?
464
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,760
Never. It's fine.
465
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,320
Don't worry about it.
466
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:42,880
It's all...
GUNSHOT
467
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,000
..good.
468
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,840
Uh...if you say so, Catesby.
469
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,920
Catesby? Hard luck, guys,
you've been hunted down.
470
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,520
And in some cases, shot.
What happened?
471
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:56,920
Did we win?
472
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,120
WHIMPERING: I'll take that as a no.
473
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,520
Yo, yo, King James in the house.
474
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,480
And looky what we have here.
475
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,440
Mr John Johnson.
476
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,520
If that is your real name.
477
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,600
A letter was found on your person
addressed to one Guy Fawkes.
478
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:18,960
No comment. Oh, don't worry.
479
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,000
I'll find out if
you're telling the truth...
480
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,680
..by allowing Sir William Wade
and his men
481
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,440
to use their powers of persuasion.
482
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,840
Persuasion, sir?
We usually just torture them.
483
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,120
Yes, Wade. I was trying to be
subtle and intimidating.
484
00:22:34,120 --> 00:22:38,600
Begin, Wade! Start lightly,
getting more severe if he resists.
485
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,400
Very well, Your Majesty.
486
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,400
Oh, come on, then! Do your worst!
487
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,720
Uh-oh...
488
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,280
..tickle time!
489
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:49,920
Uh, Sir William...
490
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:56,120
..I think threatening him with
a feather is a little too light.
491
00:22:56,120 --> 00:22:59,160
I'm very ticklish, though.
More than a feather.
492
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,960
Set him on fire? No!
Split the difference?
493
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,760
Er, the rack? There we go! No!
That's the sort of thing!
494
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,240
Start with the manacles
and work your way up.
495
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,400
Now, off to get tortured, you go.
496
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:17,280
Ooh, will you look at that! Guy
is no longer here to speak to you.
497
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:18,840
I wonder why that is.
498
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,720
I'm trying to say
we had him executed,
499
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,680
and not in a nice way.
But your friend of mine - me -
500
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,600
was very much alive and kicking.
Booyeah!
501
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,120
Now, the gunpowder plot
was an epic fail,
502
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:34,520
and it kind of felt like everyone
503
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,200
should celebrate that fact
every year.
504
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,600
So me and my Parliament made that
a rule for November 5th.
505
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,320
Boo! Ha-ha-ha, the fun we had.
506
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,000
This is Jimmy on the street,
I'm James I
507
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,600
or Jimmy VI, if you're Scottish,
508
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,400
and the best day of the year
509
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,440
is finally here -
the 5th of November, 1606,
510
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:58,200
the day we all celebrate me
still being alive!
511
00:23:58,200 --> 00:23:59,840
Cheer, Robert. WEAKLY: Yay.
512
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:04,160
Yay! My adviser Robert Cecil, here,
is right to cheer.
513
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:05,760
What a day!
514
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,920
You! If you could say one word,
what would it be?
515
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,800
No-one cares! OK, come on!
Oh, you! Unnamed female,
516
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,280
what are you doing?
Er, building a bonfire.
517
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,880
Why? Because you ordered us
to celebrate.
518
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,880
Well, what are you waiting for?
519
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,760
Go burn everything...
520
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,800
..to celebrate ME
not getting burned.
521
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:31,120
Yes, one whole day to reflect
what an absolute blessing it was
522
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:33,880
that I didn't get bumped off by
that mean old Guy Fawkes
523
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:38,560
and his wee pals. And that day
is today, the 5th of November.
524
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:39,880
Should be the 4th, really.
525
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,000
Have you got something to say,
Cecil?
526
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,560
Well...
527
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,120
..Guy Fawkes was discovered on
the 4th of November, so technically,
528
00:24:46,120 --> 00:24:47,840
we should have celebrated yesterday.
529
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,600
Is there a day to celebrate YOU,
Robert?
530
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,240
No, Your Majesty.
531
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,200
No, there isn't.
532
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,880
Well, there is for ME, pal,
533
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,120
and that day is today,
the 5th of November.
534
00:24:59,120 --> 00:25:01,320
Which way? Which way? This way.
535
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:02,920
No, this way! What about you?
536
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:04,960
Oh, you're too wooden. Agh!
537
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,640
Burn! Burn! Burn!
538
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,640
This thing is just
gonna keep getting bigger.
539
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,280
I'm picturing gun salutes,
540
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,120
bell-ringing, you know,
mayoral processions.
541
00:25:14,120 --> 00:25:19,280
And in July, OK, Christian of
Denmark even brought me a firework
542
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,720
which they let off in celebration.
Tell them about it.
543
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,960
It was broad daylight
in the middle of July,
544
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,600
so when it went off,
no-one could really see anything.
545
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,880
Which made it
all the more impressive.
546
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:36,480
He's not wrong! So many chances
to celebrate your fave king, me,
547
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,200
the 5th of November.
Don't forget that date.
548
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,760
I'm expecting people
to be celebrating that date
549
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,080
for many centuries to come.
550
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,520
Remember, remember
the 5th of November. That's stupid.
551
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,960
That rhyme could literally apply
to any day in November.
552
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:50,840
Well, it could be
the 4th of November.
553
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,160
No. You!
554
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,760
Celebrate me more!
555
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,720
Why is that not on fire?
Everything should be on fire! Right,
556
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,760
I'm off to sing a total banger
about the history of fireworks.
557
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,960
Happy Bonfire Night, everyone!
558
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,960
# The birth of fireworks
559
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,840
# An ancient Chinese tale
560
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,760
# Wei Boyang tried to live forever
but was doomed to fail
561
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,760
# He mixed three powders up
562
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,560
# Thought they would be a hit
563
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,800
# He didn't live so long
but now the spark was lit
564
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,600
# Cos when you add some heat
565
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,480
# And then retreat
566
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:32,440
# It starts to smoke and spark
567
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,600
# And lights the dark... #
568
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,840
EXPLOSION
569
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,600
Oh! This really seems to help
my psoriasis.
570
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,880
# Yes, he had made an eczema cure
571
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,640
# Applied the mixture to the sore
572
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,240
# Not what he was looking for
573
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,120
# Must be more to this for sure
574
00:26:56,120 --> 00:26:59,840
# Little fireworks go
zoom, zoom, zoom
575
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,680
# But fill a barrel
and it's boom, boom, boom
576
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,520
# We'll blow the king
across the room, room, room
577
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,600
# Then Catholic England
can resume-sume-sume
578
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,600
# Cos they were using gunpowder
579
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:19,440
# That started as an eczema cure
580
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,120
# But Guy Fawkes' plan
did not go bang
581
00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:27,240
# And soon he was a captured man
582
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:31,440
# Now no matter where you go
583
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,200
# Fireworks put on a show
584
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,840
# Hear the crowds go aah, aah, ooh
585
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:43,240
# Entertainment just for you. #
586
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,440
Uh-oh...
587
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:49,680
..tickle.
588
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,360
Uh-oh...
589
00:27:52,360 --> 00:27:54,040
HE LAUGHS
590
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,000
..tickle...
591
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,360
# The past is no longer a mystery
592
00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:05,360
# Hope you enjoyed
Horrible Histories. #
