The executioner described the emotion of the job very well, Tony's reaction was very real also
-
one of the coolest hosts for a documentary I've ever seen! lol this guy is taking all the old timey punishments and jobs like a champ!
-
It takes a true hero to put himself thru all of the hell of the worst jobs and punishments of the past to entertain us . Thank you Tony .
-
The executioner guy was quite nice wasnt he
-
I think the worst job of tutor time would be being one of Henry the 8th wife's.
-
The executioner re-enactor is really captivating
-
Did anyone else think he looked adorable when he was dressed in that fish wife costume?
-
There's something so darkly humourous about the sympathetic and thoughtful executioner.
-
lmao "who needs friends when you have enemas"
-
Tony Robinson is a great host, he gets right in and does the jobs, very hands on, and he’s friendly, very knowledgeable and I like watching anything he’s on. Great series!
-
Yo the dude in the dress looked like he was legit floating when he walked out onto the stage at 27:40. Trippy as hell lol

Groom of the stool isn't that exotic. Home health aides, home care assistants, carers, CNAs, or whatever other name they go by in your region do the same thing, plus a lot of other physically and emotionally demanding tasks they don't get paid near enough for. Since royalty is not involved, they are usually taken for granted, unfortunately. =(

In defense of the beetles in the rouge makeup, cochineal beetles are much better for you than the synthetic dyes that were invented in the 1800s. In fact, the best food colouring and makeup are still made from cochineal beetles!

One of the most dangerous jobs was washerwoman. Falling into the river and being dragged under by their woolen dresses and petticoats was a common hazard. Historian Lucy Worsley tried it out and scared the daylights out of herself even though there was a production crew ready to rescue her.
-
Only the most aristocratic hands were worthy to disappear beneath the royal buttocks. That line delivered by Tony almost gives that job some dignity.
-
that very dedicated and earnest executioner is hillarious
-
About sewage...thank GOD! that we live in modern times. Running water is a blessing.
-
This series is so freaking interesting
-
And then the crowd says, no it's a pumpkin with a pathetic mustache drawn on it
-
I wish they had given credit to the experts here. The woad man was the same one who was the purple dyer in the show on worst royal jobs but in that one they named him (John Edmond or Edmonds).
