Featuring Ptahhotep, Jane Austen and Oscar Wilde, this History Bomb charts the rise of manners to the height of the Victorian era, before the general relaxation of etiquette up to the modern informality (and casual blasphemy!) of the text message.
We must say a very big thank you to the staff at the Geffrye Museum for being so accommodating and patient!

This is a great clip for teaching people etiquette in an entertaining way. The lady with a Suffolk accent was the best in the whole clip. She played her character very smartly and professionally. But at the end of the day, this is AMAZING and irresistible to watch time and time again. All the best guys

[@rafimuhammadzakaria482]

3:50 The dialogues in 1910 broke my heart in so many pieces. I so wish the world could've been frozen in the Edwardian era forever.

5:01 everybody turns into Canadians

[@Bluesonofman]

Do... the... American.... Revolution

[@edwarddundon-smith9059]

U want brits to reenact the american revolution... Brutal.

[@ajems14]

thing is we probably would do it and wouldn't even bitch about it afterwards (unlike the Americans in the History of Football video...) History doesn't scare Brits because we've been a pretty successful country. You just need to watch some of our comedies about our own history to understand that, we do self depreciation better than most.

[@joshuabutler9011]

that would be great. or something how America always beats the British

[@ljs_2716]

Spicy Leprechaun - And we saved you in the world wars, so your point is,

[@Bluesonofman]

Spicy Leprechaun Stuff If we didn't get involved all of Europe would have fallen to the Nazis. Jews, Blacks, Slavs and other minority's would have been exterminated in Europe. China would have fallen to the Japanese witch would make it harder to fight them. Our involvement kept the Nazis from getting atomic weapons.

would they do a second take if they're were a tornado or a gun man in the building?

[@sorayacatfriend]

Cracno112 it's in ONE take, not the First take.

[@cracno1125]

Prakhar Tiwari yes but what they won't make a second one or cut so if they're is a gun man in the building they just continue as they were and ignore the gun man while they're being shot at

[@LordPumpkinPie]

No.. they would run and try an film it later when it is safe or scrap the idea.
