  1. Guess who likes "Horrible Histories" when he's stoned from the anaesthetic after surgery? 😄

    Ever wondered how you teach kids about Dick Turpin the vicious British highwayman who killed two people? Here’s more from “Horrible Histories”, with Mathew Baynton’s perfect “Adam and the Ants” skit. The ending of this true tale’s quite amazing too, and I must admit I’m rather taken by Martha Howe-Douglas’s rock lute playing!

    Teaching kids history UK style. I guarantee you’ll learn more about Charles the Second in the next few minutes than you ever learned at school.
    I just love this stuff, and it’s so brilliantly written I’m not surprised the show got an award.
    Matthew Baynton at his peak!

  5. How the hell is “Literally” so far down the #HorribleHistories song ranking from WatchMojoUK? Absolute scandal. youtu.be/s-UupzWGzuM?si=eiObiz #ThemThereTroupe

    (God, there’s so many excellent bangers though)

    I didn't quite realise how much of a lack of diversity the first lot's names had.

    An award that’s overdue and well justified!
    What a great show this is (for both kids and adults!) and the number of fab comedians it’s featured is a real eye opener. From Rowan Atkinson to Ben Miller. The songs they sing are so well done, I feel a couple of classic “Horrible History” posts coming on!

  8. I got this book on a family holiday to the Isle Of Wight like...25+ years ago. It was like my bible for a good while. I'm absolutely gutted that it was thrown away when I was a teenager who was far too cool for a Horrible Histories book.

  9. My daughter, a big fan of #HorribleHistories and #GregJenner, gets so angry that the #LEGO Viking sets have horned helmets.

    There was a sketch on #HorribleHistories in which they were called 'southern necessities'.

  11. ⚽️💥 At the inaugural meeting of the newly-formed Football Association in 1863, Francis Campbell of Blackheath FC objected to the banning of “hacking”, warning it would “do away with all the courage and pluck of the game.”

  12. 📺 Alert your children: tomorrow at 6pm on @[email protected] there's a special episode of #HorribleHistories hosted by @[email protected] all about the history of the beautiful game.

    Featuring, among other things, Historical All or Nothing. ⚽️

  13. I have a degree in history, but I still learn things watching #HorribleHistories on iPlayer with my kids. This week I leaned that *each* #zeppelin needed 250,000 (a quarter of a million) cow intestines for use as gas bags.

    As a result, during #WW1, the German authorities banned the production of sausages, to stop the intestines being used for sausage skins. Being a German soldier in the trenches must have been miserable enough before someone took your sausages away.
