"Sire, the peasants are revolting!" ..."Yes, they do stink a bit, don't they!"

Can you imagine being a simple, young boy who worked your way up from the bottom of the social ladder to a respectable position only to be wrongly tortured and murdered by a petty, sadistic psychopath? Poor Richard.

I can just see the peasant from Monty Python as they boil the cook: "Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system "

The Knacker job was probably the origin of the British saying "I'm knackered" which means "I'm exhausted".

This was so well done and interesting, the 43 minutes went by before I knew it. Laying here with my dog (also 18 months old) thinking about him going down with the ship, way too sad. Life was so incredibly difficult in Tudor, England. I doubt they much wanted to live past 35.

'He goes no slogging Eleanor for 600 lines..." History of the first Yelp review.

TIL: If I was alive in Tudor England, I'd be dead.

I miss when TLC and Discovery had programs like this instead of reality TV. Maybe someone would learn something instead of turning crass.

When you start talking throwing shade on henry the eighth and somebody deadass looking like his actual great-grandson steps up to offer an informed historical perspective

I can't get enough of this channel. I wish I could time travel to the past and see what things were really like.

I love every one of this gentleman's videos! The enormous role Britian has had in world history is astounding. Thanks from America.

Imagine doing a job that everyone thought was necessary, was glad not have to do themselves, and yet everyone hated you for it and basically shunned you.

He’s so excited. His grin is infectious 🥺🥺🥺

Ten years ago, my American upbringing lacked so much history ... i craved to know more. Tony is the reason I wanted to become a historian. I can se his passion and respect for history.

Henry VIII was one sick monster to boil the cook alive and laugh about it.

I mean, I knew Henry VIII was a terrible person, but holy shit! D:
