[MAN READING]
16
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,160
During the Georgian era,
17
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,760
the British had
a great naval commander,
18
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,200
the legendary
Lord Horatio Nelson.
19
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,840
Wow! The Victory.
20
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,520
Me serving under Lord Nelson
on his own flagship.
21
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,920
I can't wait to meet Britain's
greatest ever naval hero.
22
00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:01,840
Well,
you won't have to wait long
because he's coming now.
23
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,640
Look out,
I'm going to be sick.
24
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,200
[VING]
25
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:09,920
Ah, sorry about that,
26
00:01:09,960 --> 00:01:11,840
I suffer terribly
from seasickness.
27
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:13,560
Ned Harris, sir.
28
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,680
May I say what
a pleasure it is
to serve aboard the Victory?
29
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:17,760
Would you do me the honour
30
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,360
of letting me shake you
by the hand?
31
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,040
Don't worry,
happens all the time.
32
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,560
Got hit in
the right arm by a bullet,
33
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,200
had to have it
hacked off by a saw.
34
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,040
Didn't see it coming,
of course,
35
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,920
because I had
something in my eye,
a large piece of shrapnel.
36
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:31,200
Can't see out of
the blessed thing now.
[CHUCKLES]
37
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,440
And how did you
lose your legs?
38
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:33,640
What?
39
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,760
Your legs seem to be
cut off at the knee.
40
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,440
No, he really is that short.
41
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,480
Oh, dear, a bit embarrassing.
42
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,680
I'm a great
admirer of all your work.

45
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,000
What? This is ridiculous.
46
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,960
He's supposed to be Britain's
greatest ever naval hero,
47
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,120
and he's half blind,
one-armed and he gets seasick.
48
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,120
He may not be much
to look at, granted,
49
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,320
but he is
a genius at sea battles
and very popular with the men,
50
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,400
even though
he is a stickler
for discipline.
51
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,040
Sailor, have you seen
the state of your shoes?
52
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,960
I expect all
the men on my ship
to be decently turned out.
53
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,760
-But you just...
-Get them cleaned up, man.
54
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,320
They're an absolute disgrace.
55
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,240
Honestly, you can't get
the sailors nowadays...
56
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:19,280
Excuse me.

[VS]
58
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,760
Ha! Lord Nelson
wasn't just a lord,
59
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,240
he was also a viscount,
a duke and a baron,
60
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,520
the commander in chief
of His Majesty's ships
61
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,200
and a Knight of
the Order of the Bath.
62
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,080
I was almost knighted
by the queen once.
63
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,640
Well, she spotted me
in the palace kitchens
64
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:37,760
and chucked a sword at me.
65
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,440
[LAUGHS]
66
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,560
Yes, there really were
some unlikely Georgian heroes.
67
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,480
Hello and welcome
to the News at When.
68
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,720
When? 1724,
69
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,280
when a third of London's
population turned out
70
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,720
to see Britain's
most famous criminal.
71
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,600
To find out more,
let's go over live
72
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:01,320
to Jessica Harvey Smythe

who's soaking up
the atmosphere.
74
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,040
Thanks, Sam.
75
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,840
As you can see,
thousands of
people have turned up
76
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,080
just to catch a glimpse
of their hero, Jack Sheppard,
77
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,640
perhaps one of London's
most glamorous criminals.
78
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,360
He's escaped from
prison not once,
not twice, but four times.
79
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,080
And these people
clearly love him for it.
80
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:22,560
Jack Sheppard is well loved.
81
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,160
Yeah, he's like such a rebel
and he's so daring.
82
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:26,800
So,
how long have you been a fan?
83
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,600
Oh,
like, since his first escape.
84
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:30,280
He was being held in
St. Giles Roundhouse
85
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:31,520
and he broke out
through the roof.
86
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,240
Yeah, um, he lowered himself
to the ground
87
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,680
using bed
sheets tied together.
It was well wicked.
88
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,880
Yeah,
and I really liked it when
he escaped from Newgate Prison
89
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:39,280
dressed in ladies clothes.
90
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:40,600
Yeah, that was so awesome.
91
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,200

just to catch
a glimpse of you, Jack.

That's one quarter
of London's population.

It's not every
day you're executed.

Well, when you say "executed"

00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,400
I'm sure you're
planning to make

one of your
trademark daring escapes.

Ooh, you know me so well.

00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,400
I do have a trick up
my sleeve actually.
107
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,200
It's a penknife.

-Oh, brilliant.
-And I'm going to use it...
109
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:17,440
I'll have that.

Jack Sheppard, there.
113
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,920
Can't wait to see
how he's going to
get out of this one.
114
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,080
And the crowd are going
to go absolutely wild,
115
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,280
and Jack is getting up
on the scaffold now
116
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,600
and he's putting
his head in the noose.
117
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,680
I'm sure he's about to
make his move any time now.
118
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,600
And the hangman is
about to open the trapdoor,
119
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,920
he should be
escaping any second.

Oh, dear.
Leg still causing you pain?

No. I make these noises
when I'm happy.

No need to be like that,
the doctors are on their way,

from the 1100s.

a nasty looking abscess.

No, no, it's fine, honestly.
I'm feeling a lot better.

This dressing prepared
from healing herbs

reduce that swelling.

feels rather soothing.

be the problem?

It's all right.
I've just been seen
by the Arabian healer.

Thanks, but I've tried
every treatment going.
162
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,800
I hardly think
some Arabian cure
163
00:06:36,840 --> 00:06:39,080
from the Middle
Ages is likely to help.
164
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,240
Well, we will see.
Could you please chew on this?
165
00:06:42,280 --> 00:06:44,880
What's this?
Some sort of magic leaf?

No,
it is just good healthy food.
167
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,320
Arabian healers have known for
a long time that
a healthy balanced diet

00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,320
can be very beneficial
in cases such as yours.

Mmm, my goodness,

and soon you will be well.

just the tip of the llama.

its wool to make clothes.

[MAN READING]
519
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,320
The British
Prime Minister during
520
00:23:07,360 --> 00:23:09,200
World War II was
Winston Churchill.
521
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,920
He was an inspirational leader
who liked to work hard,
522
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,040
very, very hard indeed.
523
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,440
[MUMBLING]
524
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,600
Yes. So that is the plan
for the D-Day landings.
525
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,000
Grand in scale,
audacious in nature.
526
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,400
What say you, General...
527
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,120
General!
528
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:31,800
Ah, what? Where? Man the guns.
529
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,600
[EXCLAIMS] Hmm!
530
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,840
General,
have you been listening
to a word I've been saying?
531
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,680
I'm sorry, Prime Minister, no.
532
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,840
Well, at least Pamela
will have gotten it down.
533
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:43,960
[SNORING]
534
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,400
Pamela!
535
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,640
Sorry, Prime Minister,
I must have
dropped off for a minute.
536
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,680
Right, well, I was just
telling the General...
537
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,440
General!
[EXCLAIMS]
538
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,360
Uh, I'm sorry PM,
it's just we've
been up till gone 4:00
539
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:58,840
nearly every night this week.
540
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,400
Some of us need to sleep.
541
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,320
We can't all work
the hours you do,
Prime Minister.
542
00:24:03,360 --> 00:24:07,960
How can we sleep when we need
to plan the D-Day landings?
543
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,880
The greatest single day
waterborne
invasion of all time.
544
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,680
But you never stop, sir.
545
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,440
I mean you even take
work with you into the toilet.
546
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:17,720
How do you keep it up?
547
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,280
Cigars and champagne, my boy.
548
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,640
Can I possibly borrow
a couple of matches?
549
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:24,360
Be my guest, Pamela.
550
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,280
Here, try some champers.
551
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,000
Should wake you up a bit.
552
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:31,800
Thank you, sir. Cheers.
553
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,080
So, D-Day.
554
00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:42,760
A fleet of 5,000 vessels
will transport 160,000 troops,
555
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,920
landing across
a 50 mile stretch
of the Normandy coastline
556
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:51,720
and there we will begin
the long, hard push to Berlin,
557
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,400
Hitler and victory.

With all due respect, sir,
that's not funny,
there is a war on.
561
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,520
Very well,
maybe it is
time I went to bed.
562
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:11,680
Oh. At last.
563
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,320
Yes.
564
00:25:13,360 --> 00:25:17,480
But don't worry,
I've had a desk
specially made to fit over it,
565
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,880
so we can continue
this meeting in our jim-jams.
566
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:23,720
General, bring the map.
567
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,760
Forty winks.
I just really must
get my head down, you know.
568

I'm awake, I'm awake!
572
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,960
Yes, it's true.
Churchill really did
573
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,200
have a desk built
to fit over his bed
574
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,480
so he could carry
on working at night.
575
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,160
Churchill inspired
everyone in Britain
to get behind the war effort
576
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,280
and it meant women's lives
changed forever.

You what?

00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:14,920
'Course not.
