Bleurgh,had my last history exam yesterday and Im on neutral ground right now.
Why,Oh WHYYYYYYYY could it not have been on the eighteenth century?
I would have written THREE essays on the eighteenth century!
Going to be leaving school soon,the 23rd being the exact last day because I have my very last exam in the morning which is around half an hour long!
Does anyone else think that the sketch shown in Horrible Histories(kids tv show which my little brother likes to watch and ask my opinion on),in the Vile Victorian Part was actually inaccurate?
It was all about some grumbly old doctor(not so grumbly but quite old) who liked to analyse and chop bodies up so he could figure out how everything worked.Then two men came along and in a decidedly musical fashion much like that of the 1920's(remember 'Kiss Me Kate'?) sang about the bodies they supplied the grumbly old doctor with till one day after an interview with a policeman realised these men were quite sinister and murdered people,only to sell their bodies to the doctor for cash(what else?).
Let me get to the point.
The sketch started with a few sentences floating up onto the screen,one of which proclaimed the event that was being shown took place in 1827.
The costumes just dont look time correct
Take a look for yourself(watch the whole video-it is quite good!AND...MY opinion is that the songs sound like something out of the 1920's but I am sure that at least the musical stylings in this clip are time correct)
