I am ENORMOUSLY indebted to the people who trusted me with that job, when I was only 25. Furthermore, they then did all they could to foster my own comedy writing skills, letting me write sketches, jokes, and songs of my own for the show - an incredible apprenticeship!
Working on #HorribleHistories was the most thrilling, informative, gruelling, and high-pressure job I’ve ever had. It became too much work in the end, but I loved it so much - and it taught me how to be funny while also trying to communicate complicated ideas…
I did 11 years on #HorribleHistories, across 8 series and a spin-off movie, and for the first five series it was just me doing all the history research During those 11 years I read 1,200 books, wrote 250,000 words of briefing notes, worked on 1,500 sketches, and 150 songs…
Happy 15th birthday to #HorribleHistories, the show that changed my life! I could live to 150 and still never do something as impactful as the thing I did aged 25 when we invented a brand new genre of TV: factual sketch comedy! I’m dead proud of it, including footnotes for kids

Trieste in Italy and Turku in Finland – two likely cognate cities across Europe. Both names come from borrowings from other languages (e.g. Turku from East Slavic), but ultimately back to the same root meaning 'market'.

This is a thread of my all-time favourite literal translations, starting with this one… In Hungarian, the word for a shark, hiszékeny, translates literally to “sea bastard”

@Jacob_Rees_Mogg One day your own children will see how you knowingly and deliberately obstructed action to ensure they have a habitable planet to live on. They will ask if you were evil or stupid. How will you answer?
