Horrible Histories Wife Swap - Spartans and Athenians

Really great. This is the Athenian family of Athens. Hi. I'm a playwright. And they're doing a wife swap with the Spartan family of Sparta. I'm a warrior. So how will these two very different Greek cultures get on? Oh. Help me with my bag, Spartan slave, and then go and tell the master of the house that misses Athenian has arrived. I am the master of the house. Oh. I'm sorry. And, um, and with your dear son, I believe like us, you have a 7 year old boy. I do. Don't naked in the hills fighting with the other Spartan children. Oh. And when will he be back? When he's 15. Things aren't getting off to a much better start in the Athenian household. Oh, well of course. Welcome misses Spartan to our home. I'm mister Athenian. This is my son. Why is he so puny and sickly? Why is he not taking up a mountain to die at birth? What's that water coming from his Isaac? She's chilling. She's joking. And Spartans have a very different idea of a woman's role. Right. Time to get something for supper. Great. What are you hunting? What are you hunting? Go get us a rabbit. I'm just a delicate Athenian woman. I'm not allowed out of the house apart from to visit other women or to go to funerals. You are going to a funeral. The rabbits. They Spartans are unbelievable. You're out of school, Spartan girls learn how to wrestle and throw javelins. Imagine that. A girl going to school. They should be at home. Learning how to sew. So, mister senior, for any parts in your place for a strong woman. Oh, yes. Yes? All right. I should play it. Oh no. You're a woman. All female parts are played by men. All right, well, I'll come and watch it then. Oh, don't be silly. You're not allowed, you're a woman. Oh. What a wimp, there's a scene in is he? Not kind of a job is writing plays eh. In Sparta. If you want a good night out, you're just going Sartre, wolf. Simple as. It's time for the Spartans and the Athenians to settle their differences. Look what you did to my wife. It's not my fault, chief fainted. She should be tough like my woman. She's no woman. I'm not slave like Athenian women. You uncivilized Spartan brutes. You've already done Athenian 60s. Right, this is about as much as I can take. Okay? All right. Now, there's only one thing for it. Agreed. A fight to the death. No, no. I was actually thinking of a vote to see whose way of life is best. Okay. I vote spot. I vote Spartan. I go to the. I don't get a vote. I'm only a woman. I make that two one. Run Jean. Next time on historical life swap, it's 1660 and misses Mary tries her first puritan meal. While mister merry throws a party for misses miserable. So what do you Puritans do for fun men? Fun is sinful. Horrible history.
