Tomorrow’s Trivia Portsmouth is home to the flagship of the Royal Navy and Nelson’s ship, HMS Victory. In 1805 Nelson died on this ship at the Battle of Trafalgar on receiving news he had defeated the combined French and Spanish ships. His body was preserved in a barrel of brandy, secured to the mainmast and placed under guard before being transported back to Britain where he received a state funeral. Did you know the powder monkeys were children on the warships who brought the ammunition from below decks to the cannons? They would have been much younger than you and some of the officers would have been your age. Tomorrow you will visit Arundel Castle, home of the Dukes of Norfolk. The 3rd Duke of Norfolk and his son were condemned to death by Henry VIII; the father survived because the king died the day before the execution date; unfortunately, the duke’s son wasn’t so lucky and was executed a few days before!

Tomorrow’s Trivia Hot water from a natural spring has poured into the Roman Baths for over 2,000 years at the rate of 1,170,000 litres (257,364 imp gal) per day. That’s the equivalent of 4 million cans of coca cola! The temperature of this water is 46 °C (114.8 °F)! According to ancient legend, Bath was established in 863 BC by Prince Bladud, father of Shakespeare’s King Lear. Afflicted by leprosy, the prince was banished from his kingdom and was forced to live in exile and look after pigs. Looking to soothe his inflamed skin, he bathed in the area’s surrounding muddy springs alongside the pigs and miraculously cured himself of all afflictions. Returning to court joyful and entirely healed, the prince founded Bath around the springs as a token of his gratitude, so others might also benefit as he had done.

Stonehenge was built around 2500 BC. The main axis of the stones is in line with the movement of the sun. It is the most famous stone circle, or megalith, in existence. More about Charterhouse: The school has a historic joint claim to having founded Association Football. During the 1840s the students’ surroundings at both Charterhouse and Westminster School meant they were confined to playing their football in the cloisters which necessitated a new code of rules (this is where you had your barbecue on the first night). When the rules of Association Football were formulated in the 1860s, representatives of Charterhouse and Westminster School pushed for rules that allowed a forward-passing game. In the early years of the FA Cup, teams formed of ex-pupils from these schools dominated the competition.

Tomorrow’s Trivia Henry VIII had a court of 1,000 courtiers who all had to be fed. At that time there was a need for lavish consumption to prove to enemies Henry VIII was rich enough to waste money. Consequently, some 200 people were employed in the royal kitchens at Hampton Court and in a typical year the royal kitchen served 8,200 sheep, 2,330 deer, 1,870 pigs, 1,240 oxen, 760 calves and 53 wild boar. Before Henry ate, a servant known as ‘the sewer’ washed his hands with heated, scented water and dried them on a silk towel. Henry VIII was King of England from 1509 - 1547. Originally a strong Catholic, he wanted to divorce his first wife Catherine of Aragon and marry Anne Boleyn against the decree of the Pope. As a result, Henry rejected the Pope and Catholicism and set himself up as Head of the Church of England. This was the beginning of the Anglican Church and the Protestant Reformation which consequently swept across northern Europe.

Tomorrow’s Trivia A pivotal moment in the history of Canterbury Cathedral was the murder of Thomas Becket in 1170 by King Henry II’s knights. The king had frequent conflicts with the strong-willed Becket and is said to have exclaimed in frustration, "Who will rid me of this turbulent priest?" The knights took it literally and murdered Becket in his own cathedral. Henry II was appalled and came to Canterbury to ask for forgiveness. From this time Canterbury became a place of pilgrimage for Christians who came to pay homage to the saint.

Tomorrow’s Trivia The University of Oxford is the second oldest university in the world founded in around 1096 (do you know the oldest?). Although the exact date of its foundation remains unclear, there is evidence of teaching there as far back as the 11th century. The university grew rapidly from 1167 when Henry II banned English students from attending the University of Paris. After disputes between students and townsfolk in 1209, some academics fled north-east to Cambridge where they established the University of Cambridge. The two ancient English universities have many common features and are often jointly referred to as Oxbridge.

When Dorothy famously triumphed over the Wicked Witch, we only ever heard one side of the story. Gregory Maguire's acclaimed book re-imagined the Land of Oz, creating a parallel universe to the familiar ‘Wizard of Oz'. Wicked tells the story of an unlikely friendship between two girls who first meet as sorcery students at Shiz University: the blonde and very popular Glinda and the misunderstood green girl named Elphaba. Following an encounter with The Wizard of Oz, their lives take very different paths. Glinda's unflinching desire for popularity sees her seduced by power while Elphaba's determination to remain true to herself, and to those around her, has unexpected and shocking consequences for her future. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfill their destinies. 10.30 Assemble at coaches 11.45 Arrive at Charterhouse. Students direct to rooms. P & Q!

King Henry VIII is supposed to haunt the cloisters near the Deanery with ghostly groans and the sound of dragging footsteps - listen out!

Tomorrow you will stand where the Magna Carta was signed. This great charter was made up of 63 clauses which covered issues such as the law, liberty and the church. One of the most important clauses is the protection of the rights of “free men” to justice and a fair trial.

Magna Carta was the milestone of individual rights and freedoms which has inspired several important constitutional documents in the 800 years since it was first sealed. It has influenced the development of the common law and many constitutional documents including the United States Constitution.
