Mathew Baynton, Martha Howe-Douglas and Jim Howick discuss CBBC series Horrible Histories on ITV show This Morning. No copyright infringement intended.
Same and I’m not even surprised tbh, considering I manage to rewatch the entire series every couple of months, for my entire childhood til now, and I’m 16 so...
My history teacher in year seven went to a friend’s wedding and was on a table with Jim, who did a video for the school saying “hi I’m a shouty man and I’m here to tell u to listen to mr martin!” It was v cool as a little 11 year old lol
The original Horrible Histories won the best comedy children’s BAFTA 4 years in a row, not including the awards for best comedy actors. The new series has failed to achieve this feat; it’s just not the same without the original cast and I find it boring.
2012: nope 2013: no 2014: here! jk no 2015: nah 2016: not today 2017: i said no 2018: almost there 2019: not yet 2020: here have an interview from eight years ago !!
@@EoinMLover dont worry bout it mate just one of the weird quirks of UA-cam they like to recommend things long after they are posted. And horrible histories has likely been on every brits quarantine binge watch sessions so things related to it have heen popping up in recommend
I hate the idea that kids need to be tricked into learning. Kids love learning, it’s school they hate (because school sucks). The fact that kids love a series entirely about learning history proves kids don’t need to be “tricked” into learning, ffs. Can we stop pushing this “it tricks kids into learning” bs and maybe just maybe admit kids _love learning_ but school refuses to be anything but boring, dull, and oppressive?
Like what kind of logic is “oh they only like it because they dont realize its educational”? No, kids aren’t stupid. They know they’re learning. Kids _love to learn new things._ They hate _school_ because school isn’t about learning, it’s about rote memorization.
History in particular is a difficult subject to follow, at any age. You have to really care and put a lot of focus into it, which the majority of kids aren’t gonna do. They’ve found a way to make a generally gritty and boring subject fun, attention grabbing, and easily memorable for any age group, so they can remember fine details about history they’d otherwise struggle to keep up with. I got my degree in history and I relied on Horrible Histories more than my professors or textbooks because their fun songs and silly skits stuck in my head. Your comment is so unnecessary, not to mention pretentious
The HH book series & sketch entire MO is that they refused to talk down to kids. They didn't (unduly) censor themselves in case they "traumatised" kids with stories about death, horrible leaders and the ugly stories of humanity. Giving a sanitised version of history to kids because the adults are embarrassed to talk about it is not constructive in the long run.
Woo!! Movie?!!! LOVE HORRIBLE HISTORIES!! It's a bit harder this series with some of the songs, (although I got Darwin's one covered) and the rulers one can't get out of my head!
The horrible history TV show made me wanna watch the stage show and let me tell you, it was not for kids. There was a scene on the screen at the back of the stage where Elizabeth I had died and she was being carried in a glass coffin. It suddenly stopped, she sat bolt upright and her face began to crack away to show her skull. The skills jaw open and it flew towards us (3D). All the kids there lost their shit and began crying because it was unexpected, unfunny and in called for. I remember having nightmares a couple weeks after before my nightmares changed to something new.
I didnt even realise they'd made seasons after 5 (the last with the origonal cast) until watching this interview and reading the comments. Imo you can't have HH without the origonal cast, they are the show

William, William, Henry, Steven, Henry, Richard, John - oi! Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich II, then three more Henrys join our song. Edward, Edward, Richard the 3rd, Henry, Henry, Ed again, Mary I, good Queen Liz, Jimmy, Charles and Charles again, Jim, Will - Mary, Anna Gloria, George, George, George, George, Will, Victoria, Edward, George, Edward, George XI and Queen Liz II completes the mix. (That's all the English Kings and Queens since William I that there have been.)

i’ve come to the conclusion that mat baynton is the reason i’m taking gcse history
Lmao same
I bet that’d make him happy lol. It was literally the point of the show. But there are a lot of cutie patooties in the series!😉
@@mangot589 all of them are adorable
me but with a level history
Yeah same reason I took it and started taking a level history
2020 17 years old and I still know the whole song
Same! Im nearly 14 I learnt it when I was 10 ish
I am 17, my best mate is 17 and yesterday we did a karaoke night of Horrible histories song's. Life doesn't get better.
I'm watching this in 2020 and I learnt the entire song aswell! I'm not even a teenager! 🤣😂
Same and I’m not even surprised tbh, considering I manage to rewatch the entire series every couple of months, for my entire childhood til now, and I’m 16 so...
Yep 17 and I still know the whole chorus of the monarch song
Mat is so hot. lol
Is it just me or would Matt Baynton be amazing as The Doctor?
Oml yes!
ITS NOT JUST YOU! He would be amazing!
Well if that is what you think
Well I mean
He definitely should
OMG HE WOULD
He would be soo good as a doctor. Im getting 11th doctor vibes
I love that Jim immediately went on to play a crone in Yonderland. His dream came true!
I literally came down to the comments section just to see if someone had written this!😄
*crone noises*
"tea?"

that's the best! he's so sweet.your teacher sounds so cool
That’s awesome omg
This was literally the best show ever!!!
YES!
Yes! Yes! Yes! x2099
Horrible Histories isn't for children only, I'm an old bloke, love the show albeit not the newer series.
The newer series is an abomination innit
@@anoldman9743 Once the original cast declined in numbers it just lost its pizazz.
Even though they kept Simon in the new series, it's still not the same without the rest.

"we would love to do a movie"
Well Done👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Mission complete
the horrible histories film is ... questionable. it certainly doesn't feel much like horrible histories
@@artytalks3464 I know, it doesn't feel the same without these guys..😢
Bout that...
@@artytalks3464 The og cast made a film called "bill" it's not factually accurate, but it has the same HH feel
Llama Farmer ikr bill is the true hh film
Me, 20 years old, still can sing every word of the rulers song hahaha
Born to rule over you ...
I wish the old actors would come back
Same
they've moved on but they still do shows together. most recent one is Ghosts with the same cast.
I'm 16 and I have learned that song. I feel accomplished!
Me too! And I’m not even taking GCSE history! 😂
Polyphonic Gherkins it’s great! Although it annoys me how people only learn the chorus.
2012: nope
2013: no
2014: here! jk no
2015: nah
2016: not today
2017: i said no
2018: almost there
2019: not yet
2020: here have an interview from eight years ago !!
What is happening that I'm getting so many more views and comments on this now?!?!?!?!
@@EoinMLover i have no idea!!
@@EoinMLover I'm guessing because Horrible histories are positing a lot more videos now.
@@EoinMLover dont worry bout it mate just one of the weird quirks of UA-cam they like to recommend things long after they are posted.
And horrible histories has likely been on every brits quarantine binge watch sessions so things related to it have heen popping up in recommend
i am addicted to horrible histories!!!!!
Same
I'm addicted to literally everything to do with the six idiots
Jim eventually got to play a crone when they did yonderland!!!
"i really want to play a crone!"
ahh dont worry jim your time will come v soon
It's like vanilla ice
-Jim Howick
Martha’s characterisations put me in mind of Catherine Tate. Factual and funny as, wasted on kids lol. The Stupid Deaths segment has me howling 🤣
I'm an adult and love this show! It truly speaks to their talent that all ages have embraced this show!
I think that Yonderland was made solely so that Jim could play a crone 😂
I LOVE HORRIBLE HISTORYS I CRY OF HAPPYNESS WHEN I WATCH HORRIBLE HISTORYS!
*I'm 11*
Same
Happiness*
Histories*
Horrible Histories is as important to this generation as Python was to theirs
...and that's a fact.
Making series 5!? :D
Series 4 hasn't started on Australian tv yet, but I've already seen it 4 times XD
Best show ever!!!
Best show in the history of
tv!
4:44 Jim saying he wants to play a crone feels like such delightful foreshadowing to Yonderland, where he does that very thing
I like Mathew Baynton very much I always have and I always will 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖🩷💖🩷🩷🩷💖🩷🩷🩷🩷
*high five back* that's epic though! I know most of the songs. You're not alone! :D

Great show. Saw it for the 1st time in my early 20s (its started on my 18th year) and I love it. Made me watch every thing connected to them.
they are the reason i loved history as kid
Jim: I've yet to play a crone
OH BOY he just set himself up
Woo!! Movie?!!! LOVE HORRIBLE HISTORIES!! It's a bit harder this series with some of the songs, (although I got Darwin's one covered) and the rulers one can't get out of my head!

WOOOAAHHWW! THIS IS TOO MUCH ENJOYMENT IN ONE VIDEO :D
Yesss
I knew the monarchs song all the Kings and Queens after William the conqueror even before William the first
Thanks so much for uploading!
how did i miss this when it was on tv? Where was i?
The horrible history TV show made me wanna watch the stage show and let me tell you, it was not for kids. There was a scene on the screen at the back of the stage where Elizabeth I had died and she was being carried in a glass coffin. It suddenly stopped, she sat bolt upright and her face began to crack away to show her skull. The skills jaw open and it flew towards us (3D).
All the kids there lost their shit and began crying because it was unexpected, unfunny and in called for. I remember having nightmares a couple weeks after before my nightmares changed to something new.
Omg jim saying he wanted to play a Crone at 4:45 !!!
CUT TO: 2013 and he's playing one in Yonderland
U either wanted to be with Mat or u wanted to be Mat, nowt else
6:05 See them wanting to do a movie?
Now look at the Rotten Romans movie and see how they replaced all of them.
They did a film called Bill with the OG cast in! It's not 100% accurate but it's still good imo :D
I didnt even realise they'd made seasons after 5 (the last with the origonal cast) until watching this interview and reading the comments. Imo you can't have HH without the origonal cast, they are the show
