Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play.  Ridiculous Romance Get ready for stories of love with a truthful twist... Henry VIII fell for Anne of Cleves based on her portrait but it seems the painter was way too kind to her; Marc Antony should never have accepted that friend request from Cleopatra; while William the Conqueror skipped charm altogether. Frightful First World War Care for a quick lice snack? Fancy a cup of tea that guarantees a bout of diarrhoea? What about becoming a spy disguised as a Girl Guide? All this and more is on offer in this Great War special which promises everything ghastly and downright gripping about this time.

Collection of two special episodes from the award-winning CBBC history show. Based on the best-selling children's books the series offers an anarchic and unconventional take on some of history's most gruesome and funny moments. In this instalment the programmes look at the celebration of Valentine's Day throughout the centuries as well as some of the more unusual aspects of the First World War. The episodes are: 'Ridiculous Romance' and 'Frightful First World War'.
