The show was produced for by with Citrus Television and ran from 2009 to 2013 for five series of thirteen half-hour episodes, with additional one-off seasonal and Olympic specials.The TV show carries over the graphic style and much of the content of the.

It maintains the franchise's overall irreverent but accurate focus on the dark, gruesome or scatological aspects of British and other history, spanning from the to the post- era. Individual historical eras or civilisations are defined and named as in the books, with sketches from several different time periods combined within a single episode. Sketches—which often parody other UK media or celebrities—and music videos are intercut with animations and quizzes. The starring troupe are, and, alongside a large supporting cast headed by,. The black rat puppet 'host', Rattus Rattus, appears in short bridging segments, explaining the factual basis for each sketch.The was largely recruited from the mainstream adult UK comedy scene.

They took inspiration from such quintessentially British historical-comedy classics as and the films. The series was a critical and ratings success, eventually gaining a wide all ages audience through its non-condescending and inclusive approach. It has won numerous domestic and international awards and has been named among the greatest British children's television series of all time.In 2011, a spin-off game show, was launched on CBBC. In the same year, the original show was repackaged for main channel as, with replacing the puppet, Rattus Rattus, as presenter. Began airing in 2015, featuring a new format and cast. Although the original series has ended, it continues to be frequently repeated on the daily.

Contents.Background Horrible Histories is based on by, first published by in 1993 and since expanded into a. The books and subsequent spin-off materials are intended to pique young children's interest in history via short, factually based but humorously told anecdotes highlighting aspects of the subject not usually covered in more traditional educational sources.LionTV executive producer Richard Bradley, whose company had previously produced several adult history-themed programmes and whose son was a fan of the Horrible Histories books, was the initial driving force behind a new TV adaptation. Deary was initially sceptical, having had a negative experience with the, which had only loosely incorporated his concept. He finally agreed to the new project on the condition that it be explicitly 'horrible, funny and true'. While disclaiming any active role in developing the subsequent series, he would eventually contribute to the writing as well as appearing in several small roles.The producers were determined that the show be respectful of audience expectations for the Horrible Histories brand, maintaining its familiar visual style and content as far as possible.

Early concepts for bringing it to the screen involved framing or interpretive devices, including a ghostly train carrying children into the past, or a wizard storyteller to act as their guide. Eventually Bradley with producer/director concluded that the material was strong enough to stand on its own, so they developed, in consultation with CBBC executives, a live-action sketch-comedy showcase. Once the writing was underway, the producers further discovered that sticking as closely as possible to the historical truth made it easier for them to find the humour within it. They then introduced a comedy style relying on parodies of familiar modern media as a means of making these historical details more immediately accessible.To do the material full justice, Brigstocke and series producer Caroline Norris used their industry contacts to put together a creative team consisting mostly of veterans of the adult UK comedy community. The BBC readily agreed to this cross-demographic experiment.

They also approved the adoption—insofar as was possible in a programme aimed at young children—of the core franchise precept of 'history with the nasty bits left in', which frequently involved '-style bodily function humour and comic violence.The new creative team, while avoiding references aimed specifically at adults, was determined not to adapt the humour to children or otherwise patronise their audience. Instead, they sought to make the best use possible of the material. Norris said that her goal was 'to make a show that people would say was too good for children. We started out with really high ambitions.' To that end, adult historical satires such as and the films were shown at the first writers' meeting to demonstrate the proposed tone, and these influences would be visible throughout the show's run.Once the first series had aired and it was realised that the overall approach was working well, the creative team built on and significantly expanded the scope of the comedy elements for the second.

This trend continued through each subsequent series. The net result was a show that immediately appealed to young children while also gaining the increasing respect—and viewership—of older audiences. Main article:The divisions by historical era or civilisation in the book series are carried over in the TV show, focusing on events in or directly affecting and (to a lesser extent) the larger.

The and empires are also featured in later series. Sketches are grouped under these divisions, named as in the books, beginning with the Savage and including among others the Cut-throat, Awful, Groovy, Rotten, Vicious, Measly, Terrible, Slimy, Gorgeous and Vile.

The timeline for the most part ended at the Woeful Second World War. During the fifth and final series the show featured a handful of significant post-World War II (or 'Troublesome Twentieth Century') events, including the civil rights movement and the between the US and the USSR.

The most recent event referenced was the 1969. Typical examples of the title cards with animated characters, based on the art style of the books, that introduced sketchesEach named division has its own title card that appears before each sketch (or group of sketches) set in that era or civilisation, along with a short introductory animation featuring a period-appropriate character. Throughout each sketch, small pop-up signs are used to affirm the truth (or otherwise) of any particularly implausible-seeming concepts mentioned onscreen.

The live-action material is intercut with short animated sketches, quizzes and interludes with puppet 'host' Rattus Rattus (performed by ), who addresses the viewer directly as a presenter, commenting on and clarifying the factual basis behind the humour. Rattus also occasionally holds up pop-up signs himself during sketches.Sketches were filmed en masse and then cut into episodes by the producers based on creative rather than chronological or other educational considerations, in the manner of a more traditional sketch-comedy series.

They often fall under a recurring banner—usually with its own short title sequence—but otherwise vary widely in length, visual style and approach. Many are recognisable parodies of other popular media or celebrities, in formats ranging from spoof commercials to mock TV shows, newscasts, magazines, video games and film trailers. Notable parody inspirations included,. 'Horrible Histories Movie Pitch', in which historical figures pitch their life stories to a panel of Hollywood producers played by actors, and, used the format of a former commercial campaign for.The show also created several popular recurring characters and concepts, notably 'Stupid Deaths', in which a skeletal, platinum-blond amuses himself while processing souls for admittance to the afterlife by forcing candidates from throughout history to relate the embarrassing details of their demise. HHTV News' Bob Hale and his eccentric-but-erudite in-studio reports provide a broader picture on historical events (such as the and the ), in a style reminiscent of presenter.

The 'Shouty Man', a parody of a typically ebullient host (like ), pitches unusual historical products. Music Original music plays a significant role in the show and its popularity; 'Music from Horrible Histories' was chosen as the of the ' annual children's concert. Alongside various short intro themes and commercial jingles, each episode and each special contains at least one longer comedy song centred around a particular historical figure or theme and performed by the cast in appropriate character.In the first series, the songs generally had no particular satirical slant, and were often intercut with sketches from the same era. However, after the creative team noted the critical and popular success of the major exception ('Born 2 Rule', which featured performing in the style of a ) the decision was taken from the second series onwards to continue in that vein. Historical concepts were matched to a diverse range of modern musical references, and the results were showcased as self-contained music video parodies. The thirteenth episode of the second and each subsequent series was retooled as a 'Savage Songs' special, featuring a compilation of that series' outstanding videos.The songs have since become among the most critically and popularly acclaimed elements of the show, especially among its adult audience. Commentators cite the apt cleverness of the various historical/musical parody match-ups, and the complexity and skill with which the musical elements are executed.

Principal composer confirms that the songs became more sophisticated as a result of the show's increasing popularity with older viewers, as well as the demands of increased visibility online. Many of the videos have earned standalone popularity on YouTube.The videos tend to run about three minutes, with two significant exceptions. 'The English Kings and Queens', from the third series, lists all of the since, using a -inspired format. The creative team wrote the song to challenge the show's young audience, after noting that the same youngsters had been inspired to memorise lyrics to previous songs. 'We're History', styled as a grand finale for the show's final episode, uses stock footage from across the show's run to revisit every major era it ever featured in turn. Content and educational value No formal educational method was applied to the production, and no attempt was made to follow the official for primary school history. The show's creators were acutely aware of educational possibilities, but—in line with Deary's overall mandate for the franchise—saw their basic role as popularising history, inspiring further curiosity about the academic subject rather than attempting to teach it seriously.

The show's effectiveness in this respect was endorsed by historical scholars, including presenter. Writing in, Gerard Gilbert notes that Horrible Histories is part of an extensive British tradition not only in adult but also in children's programming. In later series, as usable material from the books began to run out, there was a progression towards more sophisticated, adult sketches in terms of both creativity and educational content, as the show began relying on material that their younger viewers would be less familiar with. 'My aim for this was always that kids would go away and read up more about a subject. They love all the slapstick, but they also love what Terry does really well in the books—telling you something your parents don’t know. When you’re eight years old you get told what to do by everyone, so being able to teach your dad something is amazing.'

—Caroline Norris, 2013Throughout, emphasis was placed on meshing comedy with the demands of historical accuracy, as defined by the mainstream scholarly consensus on the topic. This stance sometimes encompassed traditionally accepted if not actually well-documented anecdotes, such as those involving.

All the material used on the show was vetted by production assistant and self-described 'tyrannical pedant' Greg Jenner during both writing and filming; he says that he has counted only eight errors out of more than 4,000 facts presented over the course of the show's run. Costuming and makeup were likewise painstakingly recreated based on primary historical sources where available.When an error was discovered, the effort was made to correct it whenever possible.

This process is perhaps most noticeable in the evolution of a song featuring the four King Georges: lyrics in the original 2009 video incorrectly saying that had 'died on the ' were correctly reassigned to for the song's reprise at the show's 2011 BBC Prom concert.Taking cues from what Deary describes as his 'seriously subversive' attitude towards the mainstream British history education model meant that the show inevitably incorporated sociopolitical comment. Perhaps most explicitly, Scots-Jamaican nurse was deliberately championed in both a sketch and later song as a forgotten heroine in the shadow of. The activities of African-American activists and were also showcased, as was ex-slave boxer. According to Norris, a desire to include more women's stories was hampered by the traditionally male-dominated viewpoint of historical records.

The show did make an attempt to counteract this by giving showcase songs to the British movement and, and wherever possible highlighting strong-willed, dynamic female figures, including,. Religious controversies, class divisions, the ethics of conquest, and labour conditions were likewise touched on.The association with a proven and popular children's brand focusing on potentially sensitive subjects enabled the TV series to deflect any serious controversy regarding the same subjects, as they had demonstrably already been presented to children without any ill effects.

Senior writer said that there were in fact very few complaints regarding the initial series' content, adding that 'everyone was very relieved'. The producers did consider some topics intrinsically unsuited for an irreverent comic treatment, as for instance the or the harsher details of slavery, and avoided them accordingly. Norris has described her personal criteria for age suitability as whether she would be nervous watching it with a ten-year-old.

While BBC executives in large part were willing to concede the requirements of reflecting historical realities, some topics, notably suicide, needed careful handling to avoid potentially negative impact on younger viewers. The show sometimes acknowledged particularly emotive subject matter (the World War I, for example) by following up the sketch not with a joke, but a more sombre elaboration of the less comedic details. Production The TV series used the brand, logo and associated trademarks under licence from publisher. It was produced for the BBC by LionTV and Citrus Television, with post-production being handled by Platform Post Production. Under series producer Norris and directors Brigstocke, Steve Connelly and Chloe Thomas, each series of thirteen episodes took approximately one year to produce. The process included several months of research into the historical facts, two to three months of writing, eight weeks of filming both on location and at London's, and three to four months of post-production.At first the sketches were derived almost exclusively from the books, whose multimedia approach, consisting of short anecdotes interspersed with cartoons, diaries, newspaper articles and recipes, proved easily adaptable to the screen either as raw material or creative inspiration. In later series, as usable material from the books and other obvious sources began to run out, concepts were drawn from more standard historical texts under Jenner's supervision.

He and fellow researchers read through many different studies and picked out suitably quirky, intriguing snippets, which were then pitched to the writers for development.Inspiration for the music videos came from many different sources, and input from all members of the show's creative team was encouraged. With the exception of 'A Gorgeous Georgian Lady', adapted by Deary from his book Gorgeous Georgians, all songs were original to the series. Once Jenner and Norris had finalised the subject matter and music genre, lyrics were commissioned from the writing team, usually. These were rewritten as needed under Norris' supervision to ensure as much factual information as possible was included. Webb then composed and recorded each song's instrumental track at Noisegate Studios, hewing as closely as possible to the style of the genre or artist in question. The finished vocal and backing tracks were later returned to Noisegate for post-production by Webb and colleague Matt Katz.The 2D animated sequences were directed by Tim Searle of Baby Cow Animation, based on 's illustrations for the books. They were voiced by and along with various regular cast members.

Video game-styled sketches were achieved using a mix of animation and live-action footage. Properties frequently were modified foodstuffs, with melted chocolate bars standing in for excrement and soup for vomit.Each series debuted in the UK in April or May from 2009 to 2013, and on international channels including Canada's, Malaysia's, The Philippines, and Australia's.

Six special episodes, comprising a mix of new and existing material around a single theme, were broadcast in the UK. 'Horrible Christmas' (aired in 2010) was followed by a 'Sport Special' (July 2012, to coincide with the ) and a 'Scary Special' (autumn 2012, themed around ). 'Ridiculous Romance' (themed around ) aired in February 2014; the 'Frightful First World War Special' aired later the same year, as part of the BBC's commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of.In autumn 2011, the BBC edited footage from the show's into an hour-long TV special ('Horrible Histories' Big Prom Party'), featuring specially shot linking sketches. In addition, standalone sketches hosted by, as well as a special 'Bob Hale Report', were produced as part of the 2012 benefit programme.

In the same year, several sketches were commissioned as part of the BBC's live television coverage of the, to be performed on, but due to time constraints only one was aired.The producers decided to cease full-time production after the fifth series, citing concerns around the increasing difficulty in finding suitable historical material. However, the possibility of further specials marking important historical or holiday milestones has been discussed.In 2015, the BBC announced that the Horrible Histories concept would be revived in a new format, focussing on the life and times of a single historical figure per episode. The was again developed by LionTV and will involve a largely all-new production team and cast, while still retaining Jenner as lead historical consultant and many of the original series's writers.

In addition, original stars Farnaby and Howick will return in limited roles. Cast Further information see:The cast members were recruited from sketch and character comedy, having previously had roles in, and TV series among others. Several of the writers and researchers also occasionally appeared in front of the camera, including Punt, Jenner, George Sawyer and Susie Donkin, while actors and sometimes contributed to the writing. Was recruited solely as a writer, but found himself part of both the senior writing staff and starring cast after creating the character of Bob Hale, whose extended, convoluted monologues proved impossible to hand over to anyone else. The starring cast at the 2011 Children's BAFTAs. L-R: Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Mathew Baynton, Laurence Rickard, Ben Willbond and Jim HowickIndividual sketches and songs were cast by the production team, sometimes acting on input from the show's stable of performers themselves. While certain roles naturally lent themselves to a particular actor, Norris said that confidence in the entire cast's ability was such that the producers also experimented with casting against type.

The demands of filming thirteen episodes' worth of material in the same timeframe as a standard six-episode sketch show, while coping with the many complex makeup and wardrobe changes required, resulted in casting also being partially dependent on the logistics of moving a performer from one character to another. Recurring characters were if at all possible played by the actor who had originated the part, leading to the development of several signature roles, as for example Baynton's, 's Shouty Man, Rickard's Bob Hale, Willbond's, ', 's and 's.The performers were allowed to improvise provided that they maintained factual accuracy.

Howick said that improvisation was actually often necessary due to the rapid-fire pace of filming, which left very little time to prepare for individual roles. On the other hand, both Rickard and Baynton suggest this enforced spontaneity may have ultimately worked to enhance the comedy, not least by preventing the jokes from becoming over-rehearsed.Six performers (Baynton, Howick, Rickard, Willbond, Howe-Douglas and Farnaby) were credited as main or starring cast throughout the show's run; a seventh, left after the second series but returned with an 'also starring' credit for the fourth and fifth. The initial sextet appeared from Series 2 onwards as the standard face of the show at premieres and other press opportunities, and performed as a troupe for such peripheral events as the show's BBC Prom concert. They became a particularly close-knit group both personally and professionally. Eventually this led them to continue working together after Horrible Histories ceased full-time production, creating, writing and starring in the TV series and feature film comedy.
