Horrible Histories features Simon Farnaby, Jim Howick, Ben Willbond, Martha Howe-Douglas, Matthew Baynton, Laurence Rickard and Alice Lowe, and the new series also includes special guest appearances from a reunited League of Gentlemen: Mark Gatiss, Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton.

What’s more, there’s a 5 minute Sports Relief special of the show tomorrow at 5pm on BBC1. If you’re one of the show’s many adult fans and you’re not back from work in time, don’t forget that it’ll be available on iPlayer for seven days afterwards.

Finally, Series 3 of Horrible Histories is now available on DVD. If you need a reminder that history lessons can in fact make you giggle, you can purchase it at the TVO amazon store.
