    I work for a top ten UK university and our history professors love horrible histories! Apparently they are not making any new horrible histories so they are all complaining!

    I'm 43... Love it since it first started... Its a pity a lot of so called adult TV is not as clever or funny....

    I don't even have any kids and love Horrible Histories. I love history full stop and always think it's sad when it's taught in such a dry way that it turns kids off and they get into that 'what use is history?' mindset. Without good history education you get horrendous instances like the one I saw recently on Big Brother:

    Fat Twin: "Ok Ghandi"
    Vapid Blonde Bint: "Who's Ghandi?"

    Totally agree! I hated history at school and have loved it years later! It was terrible how we were taught it in the 70's, they made it as
    boring as possible!
  • I used to catch it early Sunday mornings, haven't for ages now! But loved it, and learnt alot :laugh:

    I watch it when it's on i.e. when telly's on that channel but don't actively go seeking for it. I think I'll watch it more now :wink:

    *raises hand*

    Big HH fan here. Love Stupid Deaths, and the songs, and Henry VIII, and The Hale Report, and... well, everything really!

    (My wife still thinks that Matt Bayton's lip-biting during the 4 Georges song was Too Hot for TV!)
