The courtiers at the Palace of Versailles used the corridors as one big toilet. I'm sure that place was always busy and there was no hope for 'private time'.
Well I also read somewhere that women went to church and they would have a wee without excusing themselves. How? A chamberpot was hanging from their corset which was suspended by ribbon between their legs. Me? I say excuse me ...excuse..sorry...LOOK I NEED A WIZZ OK?

4k yrs? I'm pretty sure they were around as a general people for maybe about 1k, and the empire was only for about 500 - 600 years. Early Egyptians were around almost 4k. That might be where you're getting confused, unless you're thinking of the Aegeans or Phoenicians. And before anyone argues, I took Latin and was a member of the JCL for four years of high school, focusing my early college studies in art history, world history and writing with emphasis on ancient cultures before I switched to early child development and education. So, before you argue based on a vague inclination, go look it up. I'm actually trying to help educate.

Except for the few too drunk people, at the faires, they would have put our port a potties, on a prayer list in every chapel, by every priest, nun, and paid prayer givers, and personally thanked the lord every day for them. Just sayin’.😉
The dresses. They were not designed in a way that made it easy to go to the toilet while wearing them, and they took an awful time to take of. Going in a "jug" was a lot simpler. Though I doubt they did it in public.... I think that's just for comedic purposes.
there were a lot of layers, but they actually didn't wear any underpants under their skirts and you could just lift up your skirt, stick the pot between your legs, and piss
No historical movies/tv-series could possibly afford making original costumes to all the main characters, extras etc., so yes they borrow or rent costumes. If Martha's dress is from Doctor Who, then it has also made an appearance in Marie Antoinette from 2006.
I bet having to give permission gave the queen a real thrill. I think a lot of women get a power trip out of being in charge of bathroom breaks - whether at work, school, etc.
I don't know but if I need a to go.when I was on the country , go behind a tree or squat in a trench. Anyone look ? No because in the country that's how it's done
Lol. Yeah, watch Supersizers Go French Revolution. The French royal family had to leave Versailles not only for vacation. The servants had to scrub that place down because people just relieved themselves where ever.
The line looks like the same one I see in most ladies rooms in these days. They ought to make public restrooms unisex so the men can wait in line endlessly the way women do
Was Katherine Jakeways in any other scene without Martha Howe-Douglas because in all of the sketches she's in with another woman, it was always Martha?
0:47 "Sweet relief which cannot be measured" (she did it in a jug !) , excellent line !

They needed to ask WHO in order to WHAT?
I love history
It's true. Plus at this time, they carried a wee pot to go in, and in Versailles, they peed in corners or just about anywhere. Ick.

looks like bathrooms at a medieval fair though we luckily can just use them and don't need to ask XD

Except if we were in someone's home. We wouldn't just get up and go. We would ask if we could use their restroom first. Proper etiquite!
There's the tune of "Rule, Britannia!" going on in the background, if anybody didn't notice.

Holy guacamole!!
I guess they had a wee problem!
Ba-dum-tis! 🥁 🤣

@@punkwrestle I've been flat out working in the hospital. This is my first weekend off in two months cut me some slack!
Bonjour qui qui
Yep that's me second in line at the beginning Brown and White Dress :)
Y Saw the vídeo again , only to find You🙉🙈
Ah I saw you! Looks an elegant dress 👀
What was it like wearing that dress??
Did you get to use the toilet?
@@honeybrained I've definitely worn more uncomfortable outfits on set lol
That isn't acting. I'm pretty sure, based on the VERY realistic body movements that they ACTUALLY need to go. Or maybe they're just GREAT actors!!
They are all fabulous actors, you can be sure of that.
… It’s horrible histories. I don’t think they were ‘method acting’ or whatever it is you’re alluding to.

Oh sweet summer child you keep thinking that.
@@soundwavegamer2321 wow, that comment was 10 years old. How did you even see it? You'd think it would be buried by newer stuff.
@@AifosViruset simple I don’t have new comments first
@@soundwavegamer2321 yeah I get that, but still my comment doesn't have that many likes. I feel like it's not very often old comments resurface.
The lady behind Georgina in line should have been looking at the floor, rather then watching Georgina walk away. Squish!
Maybe under thick materials of wide dresses and layers of stocking, it had absorbed it.
No historical movies/tv-series could possibly afford making original costumes to all the main characters, extras etc., so yes they borrow or rent costumes. If Martha's dress is from Doctor Who, then it has also made an appearance in Marie Antoinette from 2006.
0:31 - That was me this morning on my bus!
I love Georgina's dress.
Oh thank god for private bathrooms!
I'm in this sketch! What episode and series is this? Trying to find another sketch I was in in same episode!!
Series 4 Episode 1.
Now that I didn't know - thanks for the toilet info. I am glad this video is only about a minute, off to the loo I must go now...
I bet having to give permission gave the queen a real thrill. I think a lot of women get a power trip out of being in charge of bathroom breaks - whether at work, school, etc.
I can't believe they "go" right in front of the Queen. Does the Queen not have any sense of decency?
They probably didn’t really. This is just a sketch after all.
The woman behind Georgina didn't look urgent for a wee.
Egad! Ick! Gadzooks! and all that other Elizabethan exclamation that I just can't think of at the moment. This video was very very funny!
Seriously?! I didn't think she was going to go right in front of the Queen! One would think there was a "private room" for that! LOL!
While Iam watching this I really need to go to the bathroom to haha :D
Piscittina said "ok" twice. While I giggled :)
I don't know but if I need a to go.when I was on the country , go behind a tree or squat in a trench. Anyone look ? No because in the country that's how it's done
Are you a woman
Thanks to a post on Instagram, now I know the woman behind Sarah in line is none other than Izabela from Priorattire!
Is the lady behind Georgina Izabella Pitcher of Priorattire?
It certanly looks like Izabel, she even hawe photos on her wedsite when she's wearing that dress and the same hairstyle.
Lol. Yeah, watch Supersizers Go French Revolution. The French royal family had to leave Versailles not only for vacation. The servants had to scrub that place down because people just relieved themselves where ever.
They also relieved themselves in the large potted plants indoors and out only the King and Queen had private facilities.
Nobility wanted to stay in the favor in the rulers bonus + the rulers wanted to keep the nobility in check, so they had to do things like this often.
Which episode and season is this
WhY?? No one would ever know if you just peed in secret.
very likely she wasn't wearing anything that needed pulling down
Is it just me thinking that if that was the case, the queen was kinda kinky..? ^_~
It's just you.
0:15 the dress Martha is wearing here looks like the one Madame de Pompadour wore in the Doctor Who episode "The girl in the fireplace"..
Yeah, you're right, it looks just like it! o.o
tbh since they're both made by the BBC it could be the same dress
Oh ye
Nobody actually searched for this
Did you notice Eeyore in the background?
He was looking for Pooh.
No, where is he?
i dont get it, in the medieval ages, they had designated bathrooms. what made them revert to using a jug in public?
Eh, Now look what you've done: now I have to look up the history of undies, thanks. -_-"
It is the same dress, I think. Most tv/film companies share period costuming, since it's expensive to make.
These women clothes are so nice what are they called and is this a movie what is the name of this movie
ALL FOR SILAS!!! HEH HEH HEH!
The jugs are called Bourdaloue
Yes, this video kinda reminds me how Georgian people use do it 😂😂😂
Taking the piss!
Oh and the dress the person behind her wears looks like one from Marie Antoinette as well.
What Season and Episode is this i wanna know
Welcome to tory brexitland.
Not bad
I'm a frade that it might be a bit late from that
The line looks like the same one I see in most ladies rooms in these days. They ought to make public restrooms unisex so the men can wait in line endlessly the way women do
Which episode was it?
Series 4 Episode 1.
and what if you didnt ask permission?
Love love
Be strong be strong
Not a good thing to watch when I myself need to go.
Oh boy.......
yes i think so
Was Katherine Jakeways in any other scene without Martha Howe-Douglas because in all of the sketches she's in with another woman, it was always Martha?
yes
is she back from Miranda???
Why do British people like the queen?
Look a little bit political. Look at today's lockdown.
Okay
wee pants lol
lol
STOP THAT ur making me pee! (For realizes)
I don't believe you.
