I just discovered a show I've fallen in love with: Horrible Histories. It has little skits that poke fun at history. There's a ton of them on YouTube, if you want to check them out.
Here are a few of my favorites:
Wife Swap: Spartans and Athenians
I love how when she passes out, he catches the spear and lets her fall.
Victorian Paramedics
I'm going to try burying string the next time I get sick.
Tudor Song
...and of course we can't leave out the oh-so-popular Tudors.
Oh my goodness! I love the Tudors of course and the song is right, They were never dull! Thanks for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteVery funny. I'm a history nut and I enjoyed all three. Thanks for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteThese are hilarious. My nephew and niece are mad for Horrible Histories. They got a DVD set for Christmas, and have been watching them obsessively for months.
ReplyDeleteFor grownups, I love "We Are History". You can find it on Youtube. I love the one about Boudicca, and the one about the Norman Invasion.
My kids love this, but we always forget when it's on. Great clips!
