at the way the Italians

so early on in the game?

of the mode of which you dissected
the Italian defence last night.

there it was in the back of the net.

adopt a more defensive posture

Shut up! Shut your trap!
343
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:03,480
I apologize for that.
344
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,600
I think you'll find this
a bit more interesting.

[IN MAN'S VOICE]
Good evening.
347
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,840
Tonight I want to examine
the whole question
348
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:49,360
of 18th-century social legislation:
349
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,640
Its relevance to
the hierarchical structure
350
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,400
of post-Renaissance society...
351
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:05,080
and its impact on the future
of parochial organization
352
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,280
in an expanding agrarian economy.
353
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,560
But first, a bit of fun.
354
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:16,760
[♪♪♪]
355
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:35,080
To put England's social legislation
in a European context
356
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:40,720
is Professor Gert Van Der Whoops
of the Rijksmuseum in The Hague.
357
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,800
In Holland in the early part
of the 15th century,
358
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,920
there were three things
important to social legislation.
359
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,480
One, rise of merchant classes.
360
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,400
Two, urbanization of craft guilds.
361
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,960
Three, declining moral values in age
of increasing social betterment.
362
00:25:57,120 --> 00:25:59,560
But first, a bit of fun.

Oh. And now,
Professor R.J. Canning.

367
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,640
The cat sat on the mat.
368
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,360
And now, the Battle of Trafalgar.
369
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,200
Tonight we examine popular views
of this great battle.
370
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:39,080
Was the Battle of Trafalgar fought
in the Atlantic off southern Spain?
371
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,760
Or was it fought on dry land
near Cudworth in Yorkshire?
372
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,920
Here is one man
who thinks it was.
373
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,320
CANNING:
And here is his friend.
374
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:57,720
What makes you think the Battle of
Trafalgar was fought near Cudworth?
375
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:12,000
Because Drake was too clever
for the German fleet.
376
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,480
I beg your pardon?
377
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,280
I've forgotten what I said now.
378
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,240
Mr. Gumby's remarkable views have
sparked off a wave of controversy
379
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,800
amongst his fellow historians.
380
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,160
Well, I think we should, uh,
381
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:41,120
reappraise our concept
of the Battle of Trafalgar.
382
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,040
Well, well,
383
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,800
I agree with everything
Mr. Gumby says.
384
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,960
Well, I think cement
385
00:27:50,120 --> 00:27:54,800
is more interesting
than people think.
386
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,520
One subject, four different views...
387
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,120
12 and six in a plain wrapper.
388
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:09,760
The stuff of history is indeed
woven in the woof.
389
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,600
Pearl Harbor.
390
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,720
There are pages in history's book
391
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,560
which are written
on the grand scale.
392
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:22,480
Events so momentous
that they dwarf man and time alike.
393
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,600
And such is
the Battle of Pearl Harbor,
394
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:30,280
re-enacted for us now by the women
of the Batley Townswomen's Guild.
395
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,400
CANNING: Miss Fairbanks, you organized
this reconstruction of the battle. Why?
396
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,000
Well, we've always been extremely
interested in modern drama.
397
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,640
We were, of course,
the first townswomen's guild
398
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,080
to perform
Camp on Blood Island.
399
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:45,920
And last year,
of course, we did
400
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:50,160
our extremely popular re-enactment
of Nazi war atrocities.
401
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,440
So this year, we thought we'd like
to do something in a lighter vein.
402
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,800
CANNING: So you chose
the Battle of Pearl Harbor?
403
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,840
Yes, that's right,
we did.
404
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:00,720
CANNING:
Well, I can see you're all ready to go,
405
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,520
so I'll just wish you good luck
in your latest venture.
406
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,240
Thank you very much,
young man.
