Richard III Was The Creepiest Uncle Of All Time | Drunk History UK

[@ameliawoodman750]

🎵never had a limp always walked my full height Never had a hump and my arm was alright never took the crown with illegal power Never killed my nephews the princes in the tower🎵

[@Taylor-fj8xq]

tudor propaganda its all absurd, time to tell the truth 'bout king richard the 3rd

[@gusgetoutofheregus3332]

Truer words have never been spoken

[@Couldnteventhink]

Really. It is kinda pathetic at this point.

[@itsamytanya3262]

was looking for this haha

[@jemimahkendall6579]

i came for this comment

[@PickleVonTrapp]

“Dickie 3, that is straight up bellend behaviour. Let’s have a war.”

[@cindchan]

"We can give the country to a 12 year old! They haven't even got pubes yet." That just about killed me! Oops.....too soon?

[@genefaye6795]

Hahah Eddie V and Dickie 3, I love how he abbreviates the names of these sovereigns.

[@marinao4412]

Watching this after watching all of The White Queen is one of the best experiences I could ever recommend.

[@xxIluvyouguysxx]

Jasmine Ward agreed 😂

[@beemel5734]

Right?

[@fromthesea2114]

Jasmine Ward I wish someone would put this audio to scenes of White Queen

[@songbird897]

Haha yes

[@pinkroseperson256]

🎵 I was sure that you’d love me To that hope I did cling ‘Cause I’m Richard the Third And, everyone loves a king! 🎵

[@ameliawoodman750]

Yes I was thinking about that all the way through

[@ameliawoodman750]

IM A NICE GUY OK 😂😂

How come all of the English history stories end in someone getting their head chopped off?

[@Mr2BonClay]

Have you seen your profile pic mate?

[@kimjongun3410]

Modern ones just end up with someone getting shanked.

[@confusedwhale]

Kim Jong Un: Nah, that's just prison stories. Now, it's social and economic disgrace with a side of ostracism.

[@thesandwich5321]

Oh come on, not ALL of them were beheaded, we're not French!

[@robododo.3038]

We are aggressive, be careful

[@MondoConnie]

I like to consider how much more the Brits drink as compared to the US version. It's staggering. I don't know how anyone could survive 10 cocktails and half a liter of whiskey.

[@adaoraelliott9254]

Mondo Connie I don't know how anyone can survive so much junk food.

[@MondoConnie]

Marvel. Thalia They eat junk food, too? Now, that's a party!!!

[@naniieSAYhuh]

dont the pubs nd whatnot close super early? they have to speed drink lol

[@annamcuthbert3993]

warriors . need a good take away too lol

[@Tashwampa]

Mondo Connie lmao have you met a frat boy in america? They'll drink until they die

[@Erdnussbuttertoast]

"I named you after myself cause you ma boi" lmao

[@lillianward2810]

A+++ casting for Hugh Dennis as Dickie 3.

[@crowdedcrow3098]

I think I'm in love with Tom Rosenthal already and I'm only 40 seconds in...

[@Lizzo13]

You should watch him on Friday Night Dinner and Plebs!

[@SuperHimonoOnna]

i think this is a perfect job - being drunk + being able to talk about history

[@timmoore9855]

The adventures of Henry V and Dickie 3 by Billy Shaky.

[@tcg75]

"Ach! That's him dying."*cheeky grin LOL!

[@jadelynvanbrunt]

Petition to forever call him 'Dickie 3'

[@nugal9320]

“Loving panini stickers” fuck me 😂😂😂

[@horatiohuskisson5471]

Crazy how Shakespeare has managed to rewrite history

[@kimjongun3410]

All it takes is the right words at the right time.

[@blitzkriegdragon013]

He was making propaganda. Makes sense.

[@beth12svist]

To be fair, though, he didn't invent the stories, he just compiled and embelished them.

[@torymonarchist]

Yh it's rather interesting. It would've been a bad idea for him to put Richard III as a hero in his play, because Queen Elizabeth I was reigning at the time, so he had to impress her by showing that Richard III was a bad man and that her grandfather (Henry VII) was right to take the crown from him. If he had Richard III as the hero, Shakespeare probably would've died earlier... well, Liz was a very difficult woman to please

[@kawaiilotus]

Why how did it actually happen?

[@jupiter5584]

Why do I find this man so attractive?

[@maksuree]

because he's funny

[@k222tie]

Jupiter Ren cus he’s fit

@@k222tie hahaha not even closr

[@bifurious7828]

eeeeee same

[@bifurious7828]

it's his perfect sexy lips

[@jellyloops]

I will never not look at Richard III's biography without thinking about Tom Rosenthal's monologue in the background and him calling Richard as 'Dickie 3'...

[@TheHutchy01]

Drunk Tom Rosenthal sounds exactly like Michael Caine

[@grammarnazi1736]

He sounds like he drunk all the beer on planet earth. I love this vid man XD

[@justjoy5549]

Grammar nazi *drank

[@jayeasson2910]

you are clearly too sober joy. But...yeah :)

[@NosaBourdy]

I'd love to see medieval PlayStation.

[@musicaleuphoria8699]

Play some Fifa 1483.

[@laurenmichels7144]

He forgot that Richard III tried to marry his niece Elizabeth to secure his claim to the throne lol

[@l.plantagenet]

Never been proven.

[@mermaidmotel3193]

Richard III didn’t actually try to marry his niece but ok

[@deangirl2286]

Yeah that was only in the tv show

[@thelittleredhairedgirlfrom6527]

He was already married

[@Calucifer13]

He didn’t. He tried to negotiate marriage with Juana of Portugal.

[@barneysykes4013]

Drunk Tom Rossental is like a sober James Acaster

[@relaxolotl788]

I love how UK doesn't censor swears

[@lilsyrosey]

Tom Rosenthal drunk is amazing

[@basia3173]

I was trying to remember where I've heard this before and I just realized halfway through I watched this happen in Black Butler with the two kids locked in the tower till they died.

[@BriGuyIL1980]

"He ain't even got pubes" Good God XD

[@StellarEnergyProductions]

I want to drink with this guy. Omg, this was awesome.

[@Germania9]

The Americans may thought of this series first, but the UK make this series so much better.

[@Sunrizer77]

I think it's because the UK has more history so there's more material. lol

[@tonycox9169]

UK comedians are a lot better anyway !

[@djc9755]

I enjoy the American ones more. Tomato, tomahto.

[@charlieadams2084]

I love Tom so much omg

[@lelo5642]

I"m playing Richard of Shrewsbury in Richard III with my friend as Edward. I've got to show him this

[@jayeasson2910]

I hope he liked it and you both mined it for that verite inspiration lol (effin geriatric computer can't do accented letters for shit but you get the general...)

[@ksy4747]

omg! its the Plebes guy!! gods, I loved that show!

[@jasonq7504]

I love this guy. If you haven't seen PLEBS, you've wasted your life.

[@naomikugler7431]

I thought the only Tom Rosenthal that existed was the one who sings ‘watermelon’ 😂

[@KailashCiaran]

He’s cute AF

[@acalibaby808]

I love this dude when he did Plebs lol

[@mjcareto]

[@ShazlovesmusicYT]

Gone 😍

[@natashanajam3499]

ma boi tom looking good

[@susannam3923]

every time i watch something about british royal history i sing the horrible histories kings and queens songs to remind myself who came after and before (like it would obviously be Edward and henry). it's really useful!

[@ShiftingDrifter]

As an American from the deep south, I understood about one third of what he said...

[@frankewanmale4067]

loved the way the story was told. spot on

[@badjemima]

I didn't recognise Hugh Dennis until nearly the end!

[@davidcross9811]

Actually, it’s believed that Edward IV had decided that Richard would lead a Protectorate Council. However, Edward V was chosen to lead immediately as king.

[@roziwrya9360]

the character that seems to be richard iiii is portrayed as old,when edward iv died richard was in his late 20's early 30's

[@Blyskawica1]

Great performance by Hugh Dennis there.

[@zoemoon7434]

love the opening "listen up!"

[@miloblackmetalhate]

'twas absolutely smashin'... (Read in yorkshire accent) P.S. : Where the fuck was Jimmy Carr?

[@fruitcocktail64]

death sound at 0:30 thats some southpark level shit lolll

[@LiberalPharaoh]

Fuckin' Jimmy Carr is always brilliant

[@comedycentraluk]

+Liberal Pharaoh ahaha always!

[@lDrFuManchul]

*coughs* the office *coughs* shameless* coughs* (and insert any series )

[@ktkatte6791]

I'm just being silly, I like the US version of drunk history, but there's a lot more to parody over there, thousands of years more of stuff to parody. I hope one day yall will get the US version (if you havent) and I hope the US gets the UK version eventually, since they both are pretty good. My only complaint is that british people hold their liquor way too well. I know you guys are a country of alcoholics but these actors need to be WAYYYY more drunk

[@decbony]

He doesn't handle his drink all that well. Ends up throwing up at the end of the full version ha

[@jayeasson2910]

I love Jimmy Carr's backwards laugh. Like a deflating seal :)

[@MegaJacko4]

Most of what we believe about Richard 3rd is from Shakespeare who was born and 70 years after he died and lived in the Tudor period and the tudors hated richard. Evidence now shows richard was actually a very caring uncle who loved his nephews very much. And was as much a victim in the murder of the small boys as they were.

[@Marvinskanalify]

It's sticks innit?

[@yuspliff9654]

Johnny boo has made it big

[@jenniferirwin82]

Drunk History is so funny.

[@marthaalice3959]

[@TheGroundedAviator]

Basically Uncle Scar.

[@fabulousmyriad267]

Drunk History and Doctor Who need to do a sketch together. We may FINALLY get the 12th doctor to swear creatively on TV. Again. .

[@jayeasson2910]

YASSSSSSS

[@torymonarchist]

we needed Jim Howick on this 1

[@TheRonster9319]

Best of UK Drunk History. More in the style of the original American version

[@Wadudsearcher]

I wish they had full episodes somewhere

[@fmel2860]

it’s Johnny from Friday night dinner he sounds so different

[@sfoster.23]

Love Hugh Dennis

[@potatoegirl31]

oldest 40 year old I ever saw! 😂 (referring to the dead Eddie Four, of course!)

[@ilovemuslimfood666]

And then they make an HBO series about the Tudors.

[@davidcross9811]

They put a label over the Glenfiddich logo.

[@musicgirl3668]

*cries* Edward the V and his brother... Praise Ciel for having them move on

[@donkeytonjo]

[@wickedamoeba8719]

Lol, King of The Creepy Uncles!

[@BarsonC]

[@YogeshKumar-kf3yl]

[@CassandrashadowcassMorrison]

[@GG-ir1hw]

This is absolutely hilarious.

There's always a Harry up against a Dickie - look at Henry Bolingbroke and Richard II!

[@jayeasson2910]

I've been up against a dickie or six myself. And my name isn't even Harry

[@PapagenoDispo]

[@killerone807]

this is shakespeare's richerd the 3 not the real richerd the 3

[@jayeasson2910]

it's not "richerd" anything mate it's dickie 3 ;)

[@Erdnussbuttertoast]

but i thought Henry Tudor was Henry VII/VIII, not Henry IV...

[@l.plantagenet]

The Henry that usurped the crown and had his men butcher a King was HVII. You're right.

[@Lancer7117]

My favourite comedian, Hugh Dennis, is Richard the 3

[@cameronhodgetts920]

But there already was a war on. Tudor didn't start it

[@Ubermensch9240]

The infamous *Tudors* were in this?!?!?

[@minminbtscookie9542]

I thought they called him creepy for being in a relationship with his niece Elizabeth

[@HarryPotter812970]

I'm descended from Richard III. This was weird.

[@ZoyaInsiya]

omg!! wait through this daughter or sister?

[@HarryPotter812970]

Oh, I'm sorry. I misremembered. I'm descended from a son of King Edward III, not Richard.

[@ZoyaInsiya]

HarryPotter812970 that's still pretty awesome lol

[@HarryPotter812970]

Yeah it is. Lionel Plantagenet. My mom randomly spent a whole day going back through our ancestors to the year 975. I have a whole document with dates and locations and stuff.

[@ZoyaInsiya]

The year 975! Your family is so lucky to know all of this and have documents too!

[@chadwickmacarthur4760]

Richard the third is a direct ancestor on my mother's side

[@gdroff]

They should do Ancient History too.

[@Username-mi9ho]

british bizarro drunk history. Alright sure, why not?

[@somepersonontheinternet6547]

Why is it unfinished? I mean, I love it, but cmon!

[@kaarlimakela3413]

I object vociferously! Richard III was framed! It was that dastardly Buckingham ... R III has a good record per his kingly administrative duties and such. And he was MUCH better looking than those horrible Tudor paintings.
