I have a degree in history, but I still learn things watching #HorribleHistories on iPlayer with my kids. This week I leaned that *each* #zeppelin needed 250,000 (a quarter of a million) cow intestines for use as gas bags.
As a result, during #WW1, the German authorities banned the production of sausages, to stop the intestines being used for sausage skins. Being a German soldier in the trenches must have been miserable enough before someone took your sausages away.

I particularly like the amateur #HorribleHistories style fan video to Pete Coe's excellent cover of Vic Gammon's comic song The Kings and Queens of England.
"Charles II had eleven bastard children and
George III went mad,
Edward VII they thought was Jack the Ripper but
Richard III weren't as bad (as Shakespeare thought he was),
Victoria lay back and thought of England,
Charles I lost his head.
The best thing about the kings and queens of England is
Most of them are dead.
Singing Rule Britannia, Britannia waives the rules,
Kings, Queens, Jacks and knaves and tyrants, cheats and fools."
Kings and Queens of England - Pete Coe

This video, from the folks at the National Civil War Centre in Newark, is brilliant!

About to sit a test?
Need to know all the monarchs of England since 1066?
This simple little song will help you out, just learn the chorus...
Note: not sure if they'll update it.
I’m a MASSIVE #HistoryNerd, so while I’m #crocheting, #knitting, or even building #Lego, I like to listen to #podcasts. Here’s one of my favourites, #YoureDeadToMe, hosted by #GregJenner (he was the head writer for #HorribleHistories). This episode is about #BlackGeorgianEngland. Give it a listen!

@Alex_Verbeek I don't need much excuse to share one of my favourite #HorribleHistories tunes https://youtu.be/Koeio4fqwmU
@GrimmReality @ajad_d yes according to #horriblehistories he shat himself inside out
#eduglow time! Delivered a staff meeting on teaching spelling and squeezed in 3 solid AND helpful pop culture references:
#Friends (spell Mboscodiptiasaur)
#GreenWing (poor Martin’s mnemonic for bones)
#HorribleHistories (Shakespearean spelling bee…)
Might just have managed to raise the levels of spelling-love in the room

Yes but when are the #HorribleHistories gang going to update the Monarchs Song?
