The story

This is an entertaining lesson about the history of British pubs as discovered by time-travelling warriors from the battle of 1066. It then jumps to 1166 and examines ale houses, before moving onto 1366 and looking in on a monastery where they brew their own ales. Our time travelling guides then jump forward to 1539 to the dissolution of the monasteries and then onto 1601 when pubs first have to be licensed, during the Elizabethan era. It continues on through the ages, with funny vignettes right up to the 1970s where pubs have gone back to serving food with their alcohol. It all ends in a sing-a-long, strangely reminiscent of something you would later see during a ‘Horrible Histories’ programme.
