When the queen dies I think I'll naturally be quite sad but I think it'll hurt more knowing that there will be a new king and that this song will be officially outdated
Why, do you think I haven't? This is about the kings an queens of England, also of Scotland from 1603 (when the two countries shared the same monarchy) and Britain (Treaty of Union between England and Scotland) from 1707. I presume you know England and Britain aren't the same thing...
So am I and Australia is part of the commonwealth and Queen Elizabeth II is the head of the commonwealth, but school over here only likes to focus on *Australian* history (or maybe that’s just the schools I’ve been too) anyways I love this song because it’s extremely catchy

Fun fact for you all, Greg Jenner who is the historian who made sure everything was factual (who had a total veto if he wanted, which is really important) features in this song as William the Conqueror's friend, the one dancing about with him.
+Magik man Jeez. 8? In the whole seven series that aired? That's really something special. I can't even think of any unintentional inaccuracies, off the top of my head!
Evan Blenkinsopp The one that comes to my mind was "Victorians invented ice cream" which isn't true as ice cream was invented before then, otherwise Thomas Jefferson would not have been able to bring it to America
+Titan Galaxy Yeah, that one makes sense. Another one I can _maybe_ call an inaccuracy is one they actually got in trouble for: Implying that Florence Nightingale was racist towards a black nurse.
+Harry Howlett Interesting! Yeah, makes sense why they’d say that the homosexual king died from being sodomised by a hot metal rod. Kinda like how people made up that Catherine the Great (the publicly bisexual and sexually-liberal Empress of Russia) died after a horse crushed her to death during what can only be described as an incredibly immoral and incredibly illegal sexual act. That was false, obviously, because she REALLY died from a heart attack, I think.
@@littleprussian7985 the German Kaisers were not the descendants of the HRE. The HRE emperors transformed into Austrian Emperors after the dislocation of the HRE by Napoleon
Little Prussian The kaisers were Prussian, and later became German kaisers, but there were kaisers of Germany (Prussia) For a long time before Wilhelm I
@@lordmouse9985 you made a mistake too. Prussia was a kingdom and its king could not be called king in the HRE because there were no kingdoms inside the HRE (he was known as elector of Brandebourg). The dynasty of Emperors was the Habsburgs who became later in 1806 emperor of Austria
William, William, Henry, Stephen, Henry, Richard, John, OI! Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Richard Two, then three more Henrys, join our song! Edward, Edward, Richard the third, Henry, Henry, Ed again! Mary one, good Queen Beth, Jimmy, Charles, and Charles again! Jim, Will, Mary, Anne of Gloria, George, George, George, George, Will, Queen Victoria! Edward, George, Edward, George Sixth, and Queen Liz two completes our list! So, that's... William the Conqueror, William II, Henry I, Stephen I, Henry II, Richard I, John I, Henry III, Edward I, Edward II, Edward III, Richard II, Henry IV, Henry V, Henry VI, Edward IV, Edward V, Richard III, Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I, Elizabeth I, James I, Charles I, Charles II, James II, William III and Mary II, Anne I, George I, George II, George III, George IV, William IV, Victoria I, Edward VII, George V, Edward VIII, George VI, Elizabeth II. So, in total: 8 Edwards 8 Henrys 6 Georges 4 Williams 3 Richards 2 Charleses 2 Elizabeths 2 Jameses 2 Marys 1 Anne 1 John 1 Stephen 1 Victoria
There'll be a Charles III next provided the Queen doesn't outlive her son, then William V followed by George VII if things go as planned; Prince Harry would theoretically be Henry IX (since Henry is his formal name) but given the current circumstances, it's very unlikely that he'll get a chance to be king anyway unless he somehow outlives his brother, nephews and niece!
Date: So do you have any talents? Me: Well, funny you should say that... Date: Why what is it? Me: WILLIAM WILLIAM HENRY STEPHEN HENRY RICHARD JOHN -OI!
Anne Boleyn Maybe because the Empress Matilda was next in line to the throne but Jane Grey was the granddaughter of Henry VIII's younger sister Mary. His children (ie Mary I, Elizabeth I) were next in line, then any children of his elder sister Margaret. Jane Grey's mother was also in line before her. Crowning Jane Grey queen was just silly. Bound to be trouble.
This Is the last verse...I got this from lyricsmode.com :) William, William, Henry, Stephen Henry, Richard, John, oi!

I just remembered this randomly in class and now I've watched it 5 times in a row. It's like the mental equivilant to slamming your head against concrete, but I feel pretty happy regardless.
Pusheenicorn Floofball it's honestly so sad, seeing the state of this show. The last good season was season 6. They honestly should end the show before the old horrible histories reputation is tarnished. I hate to see the new generation see horrible histories like this. This show is what spawned my love of history and with more young people wanting history to be cut, we need good shows like horrible histories to remain amazing.
DangerTRON yes but it's awful, season 7 was trash. If it just got shown in the UK, then I'm glad. That monstrosity of a season should not be shown to other countries.
Bellatrix Lestrange yes I agree I thought yay new series at first but saw the first 3 episode ind realised they were NOWHERE NEAR as good! It feels really scripted and like the actors are trying too hard to be funny so I only watch the older episodes on Netflix
***** I know--it's a bunch of garbage. American entertainment is crap. I DO however like the BBC and a lot of your programs like "Masterpiece Theater" and etc
MsCynthiaX I've never seen the Kardashians or Honey Boo Boo. I don't watch TV - what's the point? It is pretty much garbage - they don't make shows like the X-Files anymore. :(
My daughter can memorize this song and at the same speed as the song goes..I get to William then lose it..😂..these guys taught my kids more history than school ever did!.
Good thing they don't make Horrible Histories in France. Otherwise their version of this song would just be: Louis Louis Louis Louis Louis Louis Charles Oi! Louis Louis Louis Louis Louis Louis some other Charles
Espœur i swear those were the best days so many great shows used to come like danis house and wolfblood and horrible histories and more now if u go on cbbc its gotten boring even the logo of it has changed
Whilst the names do go by really quickly and is literally impossible to learn them all in just one listen, there is no doubt that the rhythm of this song is super catchy and just fun little things like this will be stuck in your head for days! Thanks a bunch, Horrible Histories!
As a French guy, this song proves so useful in any conversation about british tv-shows or movies with your friends. And they all think you majored with a master in history.

Marcoco Popps actors are British tho
he wasn't actually from france. he was from normandi which was origonally not part of France
Mmm maybe the English action was inspired by the French accent

Although I come from France
1066, the Domsday book
I gave to history
So fat on death my body burst
But enough about me
To help remember all your kings
I've come up with this song
A simple rhyming ditty
For you all to sing along
Oh, William
(Bit short init? We need more kings. Who came next?)
William second, cheeks were red
Killed out hunting, so it's said
I took over, Henry one
That's my next eldest son
Then King Stephen, it's true check it!
Hi, Henry two, killed Thomas Beckett
Richard Lionheart? That's right!
Always spoiling for a fight
Oh King John, what a disaster
Rule restrained by Magna Carta
William, William, Henry, Stephen
Henry, Richard, John, oi!
Time for my mate, King Henry eight
To take up this song
Henry three built the abbey
Ed one hated Scots
A red hot poker killed Ed two
That must have hurt him lots
Edward third was a chivalry nerd
Began the hundred years war
Then Richard two was king aged ten
Then Henry, yes one more
King Henry four, plots galore
Not least from Henry five, why?
Killed ten score at Agincourt
Then Henry six arrived
Edward four, Edward five
Richard the third, he's bad
'Cause he fought wars with Henry seventh
First Tudor and my dad
So Henry eight, I was great
Six wives, two were beheaded
Edward the sixth came next, but he died young
And so my dreaded
Daughter Mary ruled, so scary
Then along came... me
I'm Liz the first, I had no kids
So Tudors RIP
William, William, Henry, Stephen
Henry, Richard, John, oi!
Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich two
Then three more Henrys join our song
Edward, Edward, Rich the third
Henry, Henry, Ed again
Mary one, good Queen Bess
That's me, time for more men
James six of Scotland next
Is English James the first he led
Then Stuarts ruled, so Charles the first
The one who lost his head
No monarchy until came me
Charles two, I liked to party
King Jimmy two was scary, woooh
Then Mary was a smarty
She ruled with Bill, their shoes were filled
By sourpuss Queen Anne Gloria
And so from then, you were ruled by men
Till along came me Victoria
William, William, Henry, Stephen
Henry, Richard, John, oi!
Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich two
Then three more Henrys join our song
Edward, Edward, Rich the third
Henry, Henry, Ed again
Mary one, good Queen Bess
Jimmy, Charles and Charles and then
Jim, Will, Mary, Anna Gloria
Still to come, it's Queen Victoria
And so began the Hanover gang
George one and George two (grim)
Then George the third was quite absurd
Till I replaced old him
King George the fourth and known henceforth
As angry, fat and cross (hang on)
It's true you beat Napoleon
But were mostly a dead loss (bang on)
Old William four was a sailor (ahoy)
It's nearly the end of the story-a
As onto the scene comes the best loved queen
Hail to Queen Victoria
William, William, Henry, Stephen
Henry, Richard, John, oi!
Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich two
Then three more Henrys join our song
Edward, Edward, Rich the third
Henry, Henry, Ed again
Mary one, good Queen Bess
Jimmy, Charles and Charles and then
Jim, Will, Mary, Anna Gloria
George, George, George, George
Will, Victoria
Victoria Victoria Victoria
(I ruled for sixty four years, you know.)
Ed seven, George five
Then Ed, George sixth
Liz two then reigned and how
And so our famous monarch song
Is brought right up to now, oh
William, William, Henry, Stephen
Henry, Richard, John, oi!
Henry, Ed, Ed, Ed, Rich two
Then three more Henrys join our song
Edward, Edward, Rich the third
Henry, Henry, Ed again
Mary one, good Queen Bess
Jimmy, Charles and Charles and then
Jim, Will, Mary, Anna Gloria
George, George, George, George
Will, Victoria
Edward, George, Edward, George six
And Queen Liz two completes the mix
That's all the English kings and queens
Since William first that there have been
Not Doomsday book
Domesday book
Not Magna Carta
Magna Charta
It's carta
It’s Magna Charta

At least three times a day I’ll just be sat there and this song will randomly come into my head
I often get the Dick Turpin song stuck in my head during school XD
The Four Georges song is so easy to stuck in your head
Being the only person in your class who knew the whole song, is a level of respect that prefects wish they had. - FACT
this song taught me more about kings and queens than 6 years of learning history
Turns out Horrible Histories is actually more historically accurate than most history books and still manages to be entertaining
Agreed
This how I'm passing my A Levels next year

*Queen Jane* : "Oh shut up!"
I live in America and it always annoys my dad that I know this song but I don't know all the US presidents😆
Look up animaniacs presidents song
whatcanidooo good for you
Graves nope I do
You’re british now, you’re not American, welcome it’s shit
@@Anna-lo2fl lmao thanks it's shit here too
they missed out Jane Grey. She was technically queen for 9 days
You know what? It pisses me of that people forget about Empress Matilda
Technically Jane wasn't queen bcos she didn't have her coronation...
I know right! I hate how people say they forgot about Jane Grey but don't say they forgot about Empress Matilda!
Anne Boleyn Maybe because the Empress Matilda was next in line to the throne but Jane Grey was the granddaughter of Henry VIII's younger sister Mary. His children (ie Mary I, Elizabeth I) were next in line, then any children of his elder sister Margaret. Jane Grey's mother was also in line before her. Crowning Jane Grey queen was just silly. Bound to be trouble.
Anne Boleyn pisses!
This Is the last verse...I got this from lyricsmode.com :)

Me and my sister loved the show when we were younger and when we found these videos we still remember all the words. This show is great because children actually enjoy it, it’s fun and you learn stuff. If you’re a parent or something please show your child this show!

I don't know why this is being recommend to me now but I'm not mad about it
Ikr, I've been seeing a load of these recommended recently
I know all the words to this song and most of the other horrible histories songs! Im a big fan
Queen Elizabeth II is now currently ruling for 66 years now
Stephanie Nuque longer than George 3 and Queen Victoria then 👏
Yeah but this was made a couple of years ago I mean eventually when Queen Elizabeth passes this will be out of date completely so..
She broke records
How long is she ruling, price Charles won't have a chance of getting that crown
Queen Jane, "oh shut up!"
The fact the whole series actually helped with secondary school history
I just remembered this randomly in class and now I've watched it 5 times in a row. It's like the mental equivilant to slamming your head against concrete, but I feel pretty happy regardless.
Genuinely got my gcse history exam in 2 weeks and I'm relying on this to remember the monarchs
Back when cbbc made amazing shows... but now... I'm nervous for the new season of this show, season 7 was awful.
Bellatrix Lestrange I agree the new actors are nowhere near as good
Pusheenicorn Floofball it's honestly so sad, seeing the state of this show. The last good season was season 6. They honestly should end the show before the old horrible histories reputation is tarnished. I hate to see the new generation see horrible histories like this. This show is what spawned my love of history and with more young people wanting history to be cut, we need good shows like horrible histories to remain amazing.
Wait what, a new horrible histories? TELL ME MORE PLS
DangerTRON yes but it's awful, season 7 was trash. If it just got shown in the UK, then I'm glad. That monstrosity of a season should not be shown to other countries.
Bellatrix Lestrange yes I agree I thought yay new series at first but saw the first 3 episode ind realised they were NOWHERE NEAR as good! It feels really scripted and like the actors are trying too hard to be funny so I only watch the older episodes on Netflix
Who could hate Horrible Histories?
oliver cromwell
Normies
Emily Bowes-Cole why you watching this vid?
i cant stop watching it but then there are all my family that think its annoying
@@donttalktome8565 Disown them
Petition to make this the national anthem
👇
Ur mom
as long as Lizzie 2 is queen this is up to date, so it should be good for about 1000 years give or take...
STOP GIVING HER MORE TIME!

dam I wish we had cool programs like this in the states instead of the mindless crap we have like the kardashians and honey boo boo
We have been importing a lot of your various 'Housewives' etc 'reality' TV type stuff.
Am glad we have the internet!
***** I know--it's a bunch of garbage. American entertainment is crap. I DO however like the BBC and a lot of your programs like "Masterpiece Theater" and etc
Oy?
:D
MsCynthiaX I've never seen the Kardashians or Honey Boo Boo. I don't watch TV - what's the point? It is pretty much garbage - they don't make shows like the X-Files anymore. :(
DancesWithBears True
NOW I LEARNED THE WHOLE CHORUS ! .....FINALLY
My daughter can memorize this song and at the same speed as the song goes..I get to William then lose it..😂..these guys taught my kids more history than school ever did!.
Which William there are 4 of him.
_"Not quite. Now there's me, Charles three."_
Victoria: I ruled for 64 years, you know.
Elizabeth II: *Bish please.*
*Queen Jane* oh shut up!
Good thing they don't make Horrible Histories in France. Otherwise their version of this song would just be:
Louis
Louis
Louis
Louis
Louis
Louis
Charles
Oi!
Louis
Louis
Louis
Louis
Louis
Louis
some other Charles
*sad Philippe noises*
And one Francis
I hate internet culture but 8 ruined 69.
And 4 Henris
this song proves why england is better then america, they didn’t have this lot ruling it.
How are you enjoying Boris Johnson at Number 10?
@@nelsonricardo3729 I don't think the current potus is much better
@@nelsonricardo3729 oi big BJ my guy
Too bloody right, a half Scot half German laying down the law about immigration....What an arsehole.
can’t remember this song being about prime ministers?
I’m in year 11 and I remember watching this in year 7 history class. Man them days were good
Can you imagine the amount of fun it must of been filming this.
The whole shows great
If you don't have stutters like me
_"Not quite. Now there's me, Charles Three."_
“William V will soon arrive, he’ll keep the monarchy well alive”
As a British person i can confirm this is all the good music we have produced in the last 30 years
i swear all of these views are my school history teachers playing this over and over again
When music was true art
Still overly proud about knowing all the words 😂🙌
Not long after this video was posted another George came along
Who still listens to this in 2019 I most certainly do x
2018 in college not even taking history as a course but listening to this still
Jade Smith *you can never escape this song*
Espœur i swear those were the best days so many great shows used to come like danis house and wolfblood and horrible histories and more now if u go on cbbc its gotten boring even the logo of it has changed
I have this song mastered. It's stuck in my head and i can't stop singing it.
_"Not quite. Now there's me, Charles three."_
I haven’t listened to this in like 5 year and I still know all the words.
Whilst the names do go by really quickly and is literally impossible to learn them all in just one listen, there is no doubt that the rhythm of this song is super catchy and just fun little things like this will be stuck in your head for days! Thanks a bunch, Horrible Histories!
My history teacher crush literally sung this in its entirety in a lesson once. He had a massive crush on Matt Baynton too... understandable.
I’ve known this by heart for about 4 years now
I’ve now memorized this
Got to add one more now
Yeah, they'll have update that song now😂😂😂
Yeah 😂😂
Knowing this song word for word is my proudest achievement
How many kings named Henry, Edward, or George do you want?
England: Yes.
Love the little baby cry so cute. Well Done Henry Sixth!!!!!!
Its because he was retarded, infertile and when he had a king the yorks had to take his throne
Henry VI to Edward IV to Henry VI to Edward IV the end.
It's because he was a baby when he became king.
Maybe crack a book... I think you're the first person Henry VI ever pleased.
2:47 ben's face tho, so cute
"not quite now there's me, charles three'
on the new one that was such as jumpscare
I don't know where I'd be without this!
This is the first video I’ve ever liked on my account, and it makes sense! You did a great job making this haha
what a banger
Henry VI's squealing is strangely captivating.
Its been a hot minute and yet I still remember this entire song. What a classic.
This was my childhood... loved it. Still brings back fond and happy memories. Learnt more from this than in school
Too funny, and addictive. I can't stop watching it.
Imagine in a thousand years, archeologists dig up a hard drive with this on it and use this song to reconstruct English history.
I'm American and for some reason I want to memorize this now
Haley Petersen it’s worth it
Sophie J Lol I just checked. I've got it memorized now and I'm quite proud. Next up: American Presidents in order.
Update: since I watched this video and memorized it, this song has not left my head. I think I may be going insane.
Embrace it
Haley Petersen Don’t worry, this song hasn’t left my head for around 9 yrs, still know every single word
Genius songwriting, performing and editing! Funniest comedy line up since Monty Python at least.
All rise for the national anthem of those who grew up with a history obsession because of this masterpiece of a programme
As a French guy, this song proves so useful in any conversation about british tv-shows or movies with your friends. And they all think you majored with a master in history.
Look I don't know why I'm watching this at 2am but I sure am vibing
