[SpotxSpot]

7:19 playing Super Mario Land?

[QueenHannah1994]

"I've got a hunch, Richards Innocent". I need one of those tshirts. Classic. :P

[linedancer26]

I Perfomed in this as I'm one of the humbustone mystery players

[Krshwunk]

4:56 He looks exactly like John Cleese there. It's scary.

[alphaspecie224]

man, marcus looks well fat in this.

[SwingfromParis]

Cancelled due to wrong history!!! Classic

[Martinx55]

Quite simply the best TV History/Archaeology show on british TV in 20 years (and I've been on a few of the others. Only Bonekickers comes closer to the truth!

[darkhyena]

"A) The princes were not murdered and B) I hardly think it was Henry VII who did it, right. He was a big, chubby, redfaced fellow. He'd have been too busy with his six wives, writing greensleaves and mucking about with his maids."

If only Ricardian historians like Anette Carson could so eloquently put forth their arguments.

[SwingfromParis]

@darkhyena This is history- I know it because I'm a historian, and you know it because I just told you.

[AiriTokieda]

LOL 8:07 I <3 the song

[kellofrog]

I am so glad this series is on youtube - I haven't been able to find it anywhere. Love it!

[BringBackShawadawady]

This is awesome. Mainly because I'm in it, I'm the kid in the Simpsons shirt who says Shakespeare's a storyteller. Loved doing this. Good times!

[swannavon]

I know it's a spoof, silly. I was joking.  : )

[BRUTUALTRUTH]

Richard III did, not have a hunchback! He was a handsome man and his first girlfriend adored him. She was from France and her name was Esmeralda!

[lb40713]

@BRUTUALTRUTH What?!?! Did he have a girlfriend from France? How do you know that????

[BRUTUALTRUTH]

HELLO!!!!!!!!!! ESmeralda = Hunchback!

[lb40713]

@BRUTUALTRUTH Okay, okay. That was funny I'm dying for laughing. Ahahahahaha.... :.(

[swannavon]

Do they really allow this sort of thing on TV in England? I'm shocked, SHOCKED!

[wubphillips]

it's a spoof

[jennycandy]

i really love this they should bring them all out on dvd or something, so funny!

[Joyshillaker]

love the little princes!

[hairyruin]

Excellent, I thought I'd never see these again. My wife still only knows Marcus Brigstocke as 'We Are History Man'.

[allymetoo]

I'm sure Goebbels would have been quite interested in the technique used behind these intelligent and enlightening productions.

[Long23]

Yes, he was a big comedy fan, and often stole punchlines from the comedians of the future.

[Renegen1]

smart kids

[linedancer26]

OMG i cant belive this is on here im one of the humbustone murder mystery players i remember recording this had so much fun

[bluejeckett]

Tell the men we're from Chanel 4! Absolutely classic. I'm from Australia and was lucky enough to see some of these on the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation), though not this one so thanks for posting. It would be fantastic to get a DVD made of this. You could fit all of them on one theyre nice and bite size.

[billybev28]

these were awesome! anyone got the robin hood one, that was the best!

[IANC4EVER]

if u could make it 1 prince high and 2 prince "wide" lol...

[likegeorgiaphat]

does anybody have the oliver cromwell one?? that one was great

[noofworm]

does anyone have the battle of hastings episode that was hilarious! and it was shot in my home town :)

[uno4vids]

I particularly enjoyed it when 'Uncle Richard' pulled the ball off his back reminiscent of the opening scene in season one of Blackadder.

The video was loads of fun--so what's this about a DVD?

[harryncosh]

Anyone know where I can get a DVD of this?

[embu07]

If you want We Are History released on DVD theres a contact bit on Marcus Brigstocke's webite to request it

On the site it says: we will make sure you the first to know once it is released. Keep requests coming - the more we get the sooner it will be released.

[Joyshillaker]

Thanks for putting this up. Wonderful.

[ohmygaloshes]

This is wonderful! Got any more?

[ivanjelical]

[ccipollini84]

Richard III was one of the greastest kings in england. Innocent!

[AmericanKate]

Oh yes please, no one is funnier than Marcus Brigstock at being thick.

[arkellsstandnemore]

I love the robin hood one, please can someone find and post some more

[simpsone4]

I can't make out all the words to the Richard III song! Can anyone help?

[XMoonLilyX]

Lmao..the main reason this is so funny is because one of the kids (the mini one) is a good friend of mine...oh mercy...*wipes tear* *sings* Richard...Richard the third...

[ImogenMarshflower]

@XMoonLilyX the other kid is my boyfriend lol

[wylam2]

This series was superb, if anyone has any more get them up! The King Arthur episode that spoofed Time Team was absolute genius.

[burnleyite]

and the spanish armarda one as well!!!

[sarieau]

Great show, would love to see more episodes, particularly the Boudicca (Bo Derek ;o)) one.

[maxs80]

This show was hilarious! I think that they made two six-part series, I asked the BBC if they had it on DVD and they said that they had no plans to do so. That may have changed now. But, please, please, please, lets try and get them all up on YouTube. Am gonna search thru my old videos later, I know I taped a few :-)

[BobCassidy]

More episodes! Thats probably the weakest one made!

[DixonB]

More episodes please!

[19mb132]

this show was brilliant. wish all the episodes can be posted

[UnionJak01]

Pleeeaaasee post the 'Robin Hood' one!!! My friend starred in it, and I want to surprise her with it!!

[danthewho11]

Agreed, that one was brilliant. The bit where he digs up the hat was so funny
