Wish we could do the Scold punishment to a few of my neighbors who think that standing in the parking lot screaming at 2am is the height of entertainment.
I promise you, back in those days, if you wasn't well off and had a family to feed and keep a roof over y'all's heads, you'd take that money and be happy with it, you would have probably been like "I finally made it" 😂
Problem is that the heat would probably kill your iphone only after a couple hours. Also, belt drive (to keep the electric motor away from the heat) electric motor would just be cheaper, since you'd want at least $8 an hour and the electric motor wouldn't.
@ 26:50 looks as if he is rolling on some sort of a cart. The smooth steps he takes and with the cover of his feet by the dress, gives you the impression as if he wasn't even walking.
Worst job I ever had was as a bike messenger in new york city, the average person quits after 2 weeks that is the reason they are always hiring. It is very dangerous work and you had to work under all weather conditions and the pay is poor. I did it part time when I was in college. I quit after my second car accident. One of my co-workers was killed by a truck and another one lost a lung. People have lost fingers, teeth, legs and so on. This is a job for the truly desperate. Conditions have improved but it is still hard work.

Many years ago when BBC America premiered in the US, they used to have these kind of shows. Quality programming with a healthy mix of programming: The Classics, historical documentary, comedy, cooking, interview/variety (like Jools Holland),Dr. Who, etc... Then at some point the head of overseas programming decided that us Yanks were only interested in Kitchen Nightmares reruns (ad nauseum) and never any of the other Ramsey vehicles like the F-Word, Top Gear re-runs (again ad nauseum), the occasional Dr. Who, the occasional BBC series-but only if it pertains to the supernatural, Star Trek ( why ???), and B rate movies, or 10 year old films that happen to star a British Actor like Hugh Grant. I wish we could even get the Beeb (1,2, or 3...or even Sky) as a pay channel. We get RAI Italia and channels of programming from Portugal, India, China, Brazil etc... but not good ol' British programming/channels. I'm sure i'm not alone in my disappointment in BBC America, nor am I alone in being more than willing to pay to get British TV rather than relying on the kindness of strangers and "stealing" off of YT. PBS has some good programming, but it is spotty. Downton Abbey doesn't count as it was attached to MP Theater, and that has been nothing other than period drama for 40+ years. it has it's place, but sometimes one would like something edgier than a "Little Dorrit". mini series.On BBC America I see there is a "28 Days Later" marathon on right now, followed by a Star Trek marathon. I shan't be watching either.Thank heavens for YT and her uploaders!!!
I absolutely agree! I love, love, love, this kind of programming and really wish we had these quality history shows. Its on thing to read about history is another thing to visually watch it. I hope someone reads these comments and gets rid of Top Gear and Kitchen NIghtmares and put in Ruth Goodman's farms series and the new ones about Steam engines.
Ages ago TLC used to have programs like this, but then they replaced them with "reality TV" and I never check them out now. The History Channel has gone pretty much the same route. I'm glad to find this series here on UA-cam. It's a good way to start the day. "Worst Jobs" is one of the best series.
A&E had quality English shows like Sherlock Holmes, Father Brown, Sergeant Cribb, Miss Marple, Poirot, Inspector Morse, Brother Cadfel, and I think most of them were mystery shows. Then they had Red Dwarf, which few Americans wanted to see. Dr. Who was also ignored by US audiences. American kids didn't want to watch Grange Hill, Byker Grove, or any other British drama featuring kids. I don't think Americans like British programs. The BBC shows were a bit more gritty and realistic than the Americans wanted.
Groom of the Stool: This is probably where the term "Privy" came from as well. Being "Privy" to one's secrets and "Privy" is another word for the bathroom.
DinnerTimeMishap I am talking about open fire, pig on spit, machine to turn the spit. Once in a while for festivals etc, we have all the tech to make sure it's cooked well enough.
thewr0ngchild Ive had pig on a spit over open fire once.. The skin is actually pretty good.. ya have the taste of smoke, and the chewiness of the skin.. quite delicious. Then the meat from the inside. Because the outside is so crispy; it holds in all the moisture so (expessially the hind's) are sooo tender and good. Its really something I'd love to have/do again, but it definatly takes a lot of prep. Its just so much easier to throw something on the BBQ. and im really lazy :D
It does rather seem like he's playing up the human aspect. It's ok really someone has to study executions; it's only really an issue if he decided to revive the practice.
Good point, i wonder what the outcome might be... Mike Row and Tony Robinson uniting their powers, searching for the worlds worst job and the worlds dirtiest job also giving it a new name... "The asshole of earth and being in it..."
JESUS, I've thought about using two pins to keep my dress up but instead put a thread through just for an hour of going out because I was worried they would move too much and either fall out or jab me, I cannot imagine having to wear hundreds.... they must have been the most still actors in history.
AHHHHHH One of those cooks in there has his own little medieval cooking youtube shows!! He is so good!! (never make the cheese tart though...I made it and I think it is pretty nasty)
It's disgusting how women were treated for centuries. And some still are. It must be horrible to be humiliated by their whole community, just because they are trying to make a living and are not weak submissive women.
Hure3000 Yeah, that is true to a certain extent. In a lot of ways men were equally bad off or worse, given that most responsibility fell onto their shoulders. But it's easy to imagine that in every society there are both men and women forced by circumstances to make it alone and they should not be punished for it. The reason i'm looking at the treatment of women in my comment is because the punishment is meant specifically for women.
+Dion7 Men have always been treated worse than women of similar class and station. They always have the worst, more dangerous, and degrading jobs, their lives are generally expendable, to be thrown away in war, and other life and death situations. In fact, men faced similar public humiliations. Look up the skimmington ride, the punishment for men who were unable to control their scold wives. Equally degrading. But because they are men, we do not consider what is done to them to be abhorrent. Instead we focus exclusively on the harms done to women.
Beef Chavez Yes, I posted this over a year ago. During that year in between I learned a lot about feminism and gender equality that made me think differently about this. It doesn't change the fact that this device for fisher women is disgusting, but I agree that the problems men face are usually not acknowledged as much. People like Karen Straughan and the like have opened my eyes to these problems. :)
Would have been better using a ballistics dummy for the beheading, as they are about the best replica of human flesh apart from pig flesh. Would have made it a bit better to see a full body.
Well, now we know how you got ahead in Tudor times, and presumably if you did the job well you wouldn't get the ax. Sorry, just couldn't resist that. I ought to be dunked. God, how i love this series. Tony is a perfect host for these.
Just gonna throw this out here.. Just imagine, the way women were treated being dunked like that. What would the people have done if it broke.. Would they have left her?
Look at it from this point of view.. Everyone thinks you're some satanic spell caster (no offence to witches/wiccans) if it broke given their track record wouldn't they possibly believe divine intervention.
You have no imagination friend I'm simply trying to discust hypotheticals. You know.. the world of what ifs and maybes.. the place where you use your imagination purely because we have no information on the subject. I dont think I've read anywhere about what actually goes on in these things other than how the punishment works. No sources of information that explain who went along and what went on in their minds during such a trial. So I put foreward a question to spark a disccussion.
Reminded of the Blackadder Special in which Baldrick becomes executioner......"This is the head of a traitor...."....."No it's not, it's a large pumpkin with a pathetic moustache drawn on it."
I actually own a closed still, lol! Bought it years ago at a flea market and it was impulsive buy because everyone was closing up shop and I seen this lady carrying it to her car and I stopped her and asked about it and she gave it to me half off because she was done lugging it back and forth, lol! It wasn't until I got it home and really looking at it did I find out what it was, she's painted in Americana decor, which matches my kitchen and that's where she's been for 10 years, as my kids have grown up, I'm constantly telling them to get off, because they think it's just a sitting spot and it's not anymore, she's old and not really sturdy anymore
The execution of sir Walter Raleigh was in 1618. Long after the death of the last Tudor monarch. Elizabeth died in 1601 so it shows even we English can't get the facts of our own history right!
Its nowhere near as prestigious as you think for most actors. Only way you make any money is to get lucky like Depp. The work is inconsistent and the pay is minimal for most of them. Heck a 16 an hour job is higher than what some actors get paid
Like so many others here, I'd rather be a spitboy. Not too much thinking involved, but when no one was looking, you could really eat 'high on the hog' - or even 'high on the deer'. Etc, etc...
Sad to say the "Headsman," Geoffrey Abbott, got it wrong. He could not have trained for his occupation as an executioner, by practising on watermelons during the life of Henry VIII because they were not introduced into Britain until 1597, after Henry was dead.
Um he said there was NO TRAINING....he used the veggies and fruits as an example of what most people would think would be part of the "training" but he clearly says there was NO TRAINING at all
David Boffey I have no problems whatsoever, but I do think you have one - anger. Don't bother replying to this message, I won't respond again, I've got better things to do. Bye.
Boffey not even English, it's French. Hallam is Old English, it means hill, mount or even rock. It's still there in Yorkshire, East/West Midlands, where I live, I know my history.
They had specializing ladies for tickling their foot for sexual ecstasy right :) ? I wouldn't be surprised if they did not wipe themselves with their own hands.
The man portraying the executioner is so wise and really shed light onto the horrible depravity of public executions.
"Who need friends when you have enemas" ahash brillant!
Lol
I guess you could say that the pun is rather shitty. :)
What sort of asshole makes such a shitty pun? XD
"Its a bit floppy." "Extraordinarily floppy, yours is nice and stiff." Oh my maturity :)
A great program made even greater by Tony Robinson. Really appreciated.
Thumbs up for the executioner segment alone.
Wish we could do the Scold punishment to a few of my neighbors who think that standing in the parking lot screaming at 2am is the height of entertainment.
Knowing that women were humiliated with these punishments is truly horrible but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't cracking up at the dunking.
To be punished with the ducking stool, is to experience the life of a biscuit or for those across the pond, a cookie
I know what you mean!
"Parboiled Heads" would be a great punk band name.
How do you feel now?
"Mhhhhuhhhbtacmftbl". Love that man, poor soul.
These videos are real fun, thank you for uploading.
I promise you, back in those days, if you wasn't well off and had a family to feed and keep a roof over y'all's heads, you'd take that money and be happy with it, you would have probably been like "I finally made it" 😂
Still here... still watching as I go to sleep . Thanks man.
Baldrick finally has his day.
I remember a man who operated a honey truck business. He would hand out business cards with the motto, "Your shit is our bread and butter."
Spit boy in this century would be the worlds best job sitting around doing nothing but turning a stick.
Considering the technology one has access to, I wouldn't mind it, :P
Problem is that the heat would probably kill your iphone only after a couple hours.
Also, belt drive (to keep the electric motor away from the heat) electric motor would just be cheaper, since you'd want at least $8 an hour and the electric motor wouldn't.
Beautystrawberry Not so much different that food service jobs today.
@ 26:50 looks as if he is rolling on some sort of a cart. The smooth steps he takes and with the cover of his feet by the dress, gives you the impression as if he wasn't even walking.
That was the ideal of how you were supposed to move in any kind of large skirt throughout history, and it is definitely not easy
To be honest, out of those worst jobs in this episode, I'd rather be a spit boy as well. Fascinating tv series I must say.
Worst job I ever had was as a bike messenger in new york city, the average person quits after 2 weeks that is the reason they are always hiring. It is very dangerous work and you had to work under all weather conditions and the pay is poor. I did it part time when I was in college. I quit after my second car accident. One of my co-workers was killed by a truck and another one lost a lung. People have lost fingers, teeth, legs and so on. This is a job for the truly desperate. Conditions have improved but it is still hard work.
I thought that's what being in New York City was like for everyone.

This guy and Mike Rowe should have a sit down and long talk so that they could compare notes

that laughter to see him do a "fast wash"

We should bring back spit cooking, turned by machine obviously, but still, it must have tasted SOOOO good.
The Stoned Videogame Nerd it's called a rotisserie. They even make large ones to be put over a grill or cook fire.
I don't normally make rash comments but when i do... Do you live under a rock OP? Have you ever been to a supermarket?

Indeed but I have never seen a pig in one of those!

That executioner is a bit too keen with his descriptions of “cleaving the flesh of a living person” iimo
It does rather seem like he's playing up the human aspect. It's ok really someone has to study executions; it's only really an issue if he decided to revive the practice.
rather be a spit boy than any of the others
I can't decide which would be worse, gong farmer or executioner.
blackadder special----->
"this is the head of a traitor......"
"no it's not, its a huge pumpkin with a pathetic mushtache"!!!!!!
Thanks for every single part.
Being a spit boy in Winter must have been quite nice
God, I love Geoffrey Abbott. A poetic translator of gruesome history.
Very good documentary i totally love things like this.
Well done.
Love history and everything around that.

42:04 "fuck off"
hahahhahahaaaaa
That guy is such a good sport!! lol
That ducking stool looks like the shittest fairground ride ever
10:40 Tony is adorable. 15:42 "Who needs friends when you have enemas"😅
Would have been better using a ballistics dummy for the beheading, as they are about the best replica of human flesh apart from pig flesh. Would have made it a bit better to see a full body.
That also costs alot more than a pig and if you want to see a beheading there's plenty real ones for you to enjoy on youtube.
Geoffrey Abbott was also in a couple of episodes of Bloody Britain, nice to see him again, I like him.
this guy is great
i lol'd at the euphemisms of poop :D :D
Like me a side of veggie kabobs, cooked near the fire, nice and crispy.
Well, now we know how you got ahead in Tudor times, and presumably if you did the job well you wouldn't get the ax. Sorry, just couldn't resist that. I ought to be dunked. God, how i love this series. Tony is a perfect host for these.
Just gonna throw this out here.. Just imagine, the way women were treated being dunked like that. What would the people have done if it broke.. Would they have left her?

Hure3000 You didn't answer her question.
Look at it from this point of view.. Everyone thinks you're some satanic spell caster (no offence to witches/wiccans) if it broke given their track record wouldn't they possibly believe divine intervention.

I'm so glad I wasn't born in the olden days when jobs were like that.
at least they don't sound like they're on helium like other programmes
Groom of the Stool vs. Spit boy,I'll take spit boy as well. Actors are still rogues and vagabonds, reference modern Hollywood.
We need to bring back dunking. Looks like a lot of fun.
I wonder how bad the food poisoning was in those days.
Reminded of the Blackadder Special in which Baldrick becomes executioner......"This is the head of a traitor...."....."No it's not, it's a large pumpkin with a pathetic moustache drawn on it."
Shakespeare was actually a son of someone who did the very worst job Robinson chose in the last episode. ;)

23:40 Elizabeth used lead white on her face and she racked up her 3 score and 10. 26:00 Why couldn't thew sew the ruffs?
Tony makes such a pretty wife, lol!
I think Tudor treatment of actors is something we could well use in our age.
Its nowhere near as prestigious as you think for most actors. Only way you make any money is to get lucky like Depp. The work is inconsistent and the pay is minimal for most of them. Heck a 16 an hour job is higher than what some actors get paid
Something told me that the men carting and punishing Fisherwife Tony were enjoying themselves
strangely enough I just have a bone in my hand!
I can't beleive that some people are seriously this cruel to others.
I did something similar of the job of an executioner to a chicken, then a pig. I wore the mask and everything.
We don't want to read about your sexual interests.
Keep your friends closer but your enemas closer
The royal jobbies! LMAO
In all honesty if id been treated that way i would be so angry afterward that i would torch the whole fucking village while everyone slept .🙃
I really hope they don't waste the meat!
That Shakespeare wig looks like a helmet
Like so many others here, I'd rather be a spitboy. Not too much thinking involved, but when no one was looking, you could really eat 'high on the hog' - or even 'high on the deer'. Etc, etc...
The cloth that the guy had on his shoulder wander where you can buy it
fascinating
I wonder if he ever does Black Adder/Baldric references in these shows/time team etc
'new meaning to the term brown-nosing'... I'll say!!!!
Scolding. Should be a compulsory experience to any equestrian sports enthusiast.
Do a Greek Jobs one.
groom of the stool officially the worst career in history
Came here from my history class, lmao.
Ohhh poor Tony!
At least he didn't get the heretic's fork...
Can anyone please tell me who is the guy (in real life) in 20:44?
So blue dye was less nasty than purple!😂🤣
How many jobs are there I really need to know so please reply to me as soon as you know
Dylan Dhanoa thanks
I would watch the shit out of a show with Mike Row and Tony Robinson
Sad to say the "Headsman," Geoffrey Abbott, got it wrong. He could not have trained for his occupation as an executioner, by practising on watermelons during the life of Henry VIII because they were not introduced into Britain until 1597, after Henry was dead.

He made a very cute fishwife : )))))
I tried to treat my wife like they did in Tudor times and she shot me.
Its all in the hips mate.
I cannot imagine the woman of Britain putting up with that without a fight. F and Off comes to mind, two lovely words from good old English.
Women were more submissive than they are today. Also there is not a whole lot they could do about it
Bit of a pompous prig aren't we.

I really like this guy, all hail Tony R!
Baldric!!!
He lost me when he said drag was unpleasant. I
I bet they have no workers' union for such jobs
7:08-7:11 THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID
Well that's a shit job....get it? :P
1:40 Really? Watermelons in Tudor England just being used for axe training :p
He said there was NO training such as practicing on watermelons. The executioners were completely untrained.
I liked the show until he was actually dunked in the chair. Then I LOVED IT! That's dedication to ones craft..
