"Be gay, do crimes."
-Julie D'Aubigny, probably
Classic
I mean, "be bi, do stab a fecker" seems more like it, but close enough
Is this a religion yet ? 'cause I'm intersted. Also, I'd love to watch a tv series out of this. Julie living a trail of injured shoulders and shatterd men egos.
@Dennis Arian what does this scam have to do with this?
Absolute Bicon
"Flamboyant Bisexual with career in Opera beats all the men at duels" I think I'd enjoy that life.

Opera
@@saw7191 TY, fixed.
Cule Chick I love how the comment stood for at least a year and a half before being corrected and you fix it within a month. Oh, and happy new years I guess
That’s most of my tabletop RPG character folder in one person
an addendum regarding Julie d'Aubigny's Wikipedia page: it is significantly more boring now. the bits about burning down convents, stapling noblemen to trees, et cetera have been removed since they "[appear] to have been fictional", at least according to the Talk page.
however, that same discussion also mentions that there is "next to no scholarly analysis about this woman's actual life written in English." French history majors, this is your golden chance.
That's sort of sad.
But this was maybe the inspiration for two of the protagonists in Sir PTerry's "Monstrous Regiment" :)
Facts kill humor.
Those things are now back on her Wikipedia page
French-English language students I guess... to translate the work for French?
I didn't know it was possible to fall in love with someone by having their Wikipedia article described to me by Tom Scott, but...
I'm in love with both her and Tom now...
Its not
Sword Lesbians FTW
Bismarck it is?
@@ellaisplotting well tom is handsome for 19th century warring Germany
I love that Chris's specialty topic is military history, and yet he refers to the art of fencing as "SWORDING!"
I think you'll find his specialty is reading books y'know!
I always heard the intro as "you know it's Chris Joel!" as in "it has to be Chris" - never considered phrasing it the other way, mind blown!
Chris' speciality is ornithology, I assure you.
Also geology
Swording is a perfectly reasonable term to refer to the use of a sword
Now that I'm thinking about it, I have to wonder... did Julie and her girlfriend concoct the plan together, or did her girlfriend hear a tap on the window and open it to see Julie holding a corpse?
It never happened
@@comface how do you know it didn't happen
@@play-s-_______-osu didn't you hear? If that individual wasn't there, it didn't happen

Well, this has just made me reevaluate my life - I’m seventeen, I have yet to steal a body, set fire to a convent, stab someone, duel someone, flee any cities or townships, or join the opera.
Three years later, what have you achieved? 😁

@@hotscottrulz Pleased to hear it! (I think.)
@@hotscottrulz I look forward to the next update in three years
Gary's line: "Well, that's what she was doing with the swords, to be honest." is probably my favorite joke I've heard this series. It took about 3 seconds to click, but man was that a good response
You resurrected my father! Prepare to live!
Geo za You resurrected my son, be surprised that you will live!
* EnvyTheJelly * if we go for full opposite then it should I resurrected my son
I resurected your son, be surprised to stay alive!
If we go full circle.
I was thinking wife, or maybe daughter.
Prepare to live?11?1?1?
We need a netflix series about Julie D'Aubigny.
Not a Chance, the critics would say that the plot is implausible and incoherent. Also that the characters don't feel like real people.
They'd also find massive problems of having a 14 year old be a mistress.
You know how old Daenerys is supposed to be at the start of Game of Thrones right?
jcxz and yet it happened. reminds me of the test audience screening of apollo 13 when someone wrote unbelievable they would have never survived.
Sounds a bit like Arya Stark
I would rather like to employ Will Seaward to just follow me around and say words at things, he seems to be truly delightful.
_Delightful?_
"Matthew appears to be wearing a scarf today. Fantastic! Perhaps it's cold outside."
Panthers?
"Singing and fencing at the same time." So being a D&D bard?
Guybrush Threepwood, at your disservice!
Close. You forgot about their inane habit of swinging from chandeliers.
IoKnight I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that.

and attempting to romance everyone?
The mispronunciation of French names was positively catastrophic and I couldn't stop laughing all along.
"You Rezerected my Father, prepare to live?" This is just, so good. SO so good.
That line should have gotten Biscuits!
To the person subtitling all of these: thank you so much. Not a native speaker here, it really helps me.
Good to know! The subtitling's done by sending it off to a transcription service; I then clean up the transcript, run it through RUclips's auto-sync system, and check through the results. Glad to hear it's worth the effort :)
When you say service, do you mean a bunch of people who describe things for money, or do you mean a webservice?
It really helps a lot. Thank you for the effort.
it helps a lot with the overwhelming brithisness :P
i speak english but the accent is kind of hard for me, thanks for the subbs! loving the show. all the love from Paraguay
I am looking forward to the new show "Tom Scott's Not French"
Actually, it's just an episode of "Things you might not know"
I'm pretty sure we know
But is he a lawyer?
Theme tune by Girls Aloud.
Certainly not Finnish either.
mfw Tom accidentally summons a demon while trying to pronounce French
Usually you'd only see that with Latin itself
I never thought there would be an episode about someone more amazing than Mad Jack Churchill.
Could you imagine if they had lived at the same time, and had gone into battles together?
Imagine lovechild coming out of that...
@@djokealtena2538 who happens to be riding on Sgt. Reckless
I'm imagining the lovechild coming out of that becoming an accountant in an act of teenage rebellion.
@@FuugaNatsuWith Juan Paul Garcia as their intelligence officer.
This took me two episodes to understand the format. But dang now it's so funny. Will was a great guest.
The crazy thing is... There's still a whole bunch of stuff they skipped over.
I'm sorry what? I MUST KNOW
Yay! You've picked my favorite historical figure. 30 seconds in and i was giggling to myself "Its the bisexual swordfight nun"!
Who is also an opera singer!
emily boj she’s in my tie for second, Grainne Ní Mahlie or other spellings is top.
as for the "a mens courage could be judged by the number of scars on their cheeks" this is true for both cheeks actually. if you have scars in your face you are brave, if you have scars on your butt you probably tried to run away so you are very coward.
very coward indeed
Or very kinky, y'know
But you'd only see someone's butt cheek scars if you, yourself, were very kinky
The duelling scar or Schmiss was sadly very honourable in German-speaking lands for 100 years.
@@Senny_V Or just happened to slice someone's belt
this woman should be the icon of all bisexuals everywhere
Thank you for using the word "bisexual". As a bi/pan person myself, people forget we exist a lot!
Isabella Morris it's not that we forget you, it's that we don't care.
Dante Entrouvich thanks :)
I believe the term is bi-con. But yes! I agree
We regularly make sacrifices to her.

When do we get a fantasy book based on this?
Nah, just france. But like, many times all over france.
Matt's back next week for the final two episodes of this season! In the meantime, please feel free to correct me how 'dueling' should be spelled. (The subtitles spell it the other way, so everyone can be equally angry!)
One L is US English, double L is British English. Also, 'Luynes' is pronounced 'loo-een'.
how could you post this one week ago?
could anyone explain how does that aristotle whatever comes from that something that tom said?
i never get that.
Duelling (English)
Dueling (American)
What happened that caused your scar?
Eric Williamson An accident in an Italian playground, if I recall correctly.
Having seen someone other than the original four of the Citation Needed crew now makes me want the likes of Matt Parker, Jay Foreman, James Grime, etc... on the show now.
Tonks Moriarty Would they do a comedy skit involving a banana singing a mathematical song one syllable behind?
Well, Matt Parker is in at least in two of the episodes, though.
James Grime? I don't think he's done anything aimed at being funny
Imagine the Map Men in a TechDif game show
Panthers?
Ivan Alfaro Panthers
I can never unsee or unhear this.
paaanthers
She pretended to be a panther?
PANTHERS?
..the wheel spins and lands on France. Again.
For those who weren't keeping score (SPOILERS):
Chris: 8
Gary: 2
Will: 5
Winner: Will
Biscuits: Chris (twice)
Yeah, the winner does seem sort of random.
Maybe they cut out some of the points...
since there's no real prize, i think tom just picks a winner at his discretion
Texan Nationalist he does, he mentioned it multiple times, at least once in the reverse trivia podcast.
Y'know, both of Will's slightly absurd plans for extracting lovers from convents are significantly better plans than Julie's...
That girl is quite legendary, those biographies put modern superhero movies to shame!
This NEEDS to be made into a movie. Aside from the history and LGBTQ+ ness, it's also a roaring comedy.
I'd certainly watch it!
And a musical!
You win

Well. If there isn't already a story based on Julie D'Aubigy's life, there clearly needs to be one.
Reading her wikipedia page is now very different, but it turns out there were fictional accounts of her life almost immediately. I'd hazard to guess that these fictional accounts are why her wiki page is now so different from what was related by Tom.
Apparently there's already a book about it, a movie coming out at some point in the future
@@Milamberinx conspiracy dun dun dun
Doing my regular rewatching of Citation Needed this episode is a delight to reach, as I since last time I watched it has gotten to know a lady who I've over time become increasingly convinced is a time traveling Julie D'Aubigny.
The many ways in which they effectively are the same person existing at different points in time is remarkable.
The greatest dueling bisexual
An inspiration to us all
At some point a prize should be: A violent group of canines with an interest in classical music. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Oh that's good
Running trend across this show: Tom misusing the term "opposite" and everyone else calling him on it instantly.
A DEMOLITIONIST!
The opposite would be "he gave birth to my father, prepare to be born".
So surprising the Tom's weakness is pronouncing French nouns. Dare I say? I will. It's adorable.
is Will Brian Blessed's secret love child?
jjfarr72 thank you!
I'd say nothing Brian Blessed did can be even remotely secret.
Will:I'm not from Yorkshire
Gary: get him out
.....hang on a second Gary.......neither is Tom. Tom's from Nottinghamshire. ☺️
true but tom 1) is from midlands which is better that south (by better i mean closer to york/the north) 2) went to school in york. whereas will is from the south coast i think
Calm down, it's all a fecking island in the middle of the Atlantic anyway, and they all speak the same language. As an Indian it feels like they live practically next to each other.
@@xmlthegreat It's the narcissism of petty differences.
@@xmlthegreat As an American it's weird to think about people who could go anywhere within the country they live in (not counting any sort of external territories) within a day's driving more or less.
I'll be honest, if I could only choose one of them, I'd pick Matt over Will, but if I had my choice, I'd love to see all five of you together. Will Seward still has a damn fine sense of humor even if he doesn't talk as much and has me in stitches just as often as the rest of you. Glad you brought him on board.
Lord LunaEquie is me Love the guy, not sure how I feel about his laugh, it's... too majestic?
+Lucas Snowball_Cathug he finds himself too funny which is a massive turn off for me. I don't mind the eccentric/jolly persona but laughing at yourself at relatively benign jokes rubs me the wrong way :/
Like a bald eagle among barn owls, you mean?
(not to mean any disrespect to the rest of the Technical Difficulties crew)
Throw Matt Parker in there too.
Panthers?
Extra Credits brought me here. Why haven't I discovered this after all these months?!
When Gary said "that window needs just a gentle tap on it now" I got a chill imagining an immortal Julie or her ghost or her ghoul or something actually doing that.
I should draw this
*_mystery biscuits_*
oh YEAH
PANTHERS?
That oh yeah is still Matt's, wtf.
OMG! The Mystery Biscuits are PANTHERS!
Will Seaward laughs with authority, and I adore it.
You need to do a video about the English Civil War featuring Will dressed as a Cavalier.
will was sort of iffy with me with the last episode but he's already came into his own on this episode I really enjoyed him
Actually fencing to get specific scars is still a rite of passage in some german university fraternities, it is seen as quite backwards by most people though
Okay, she's definitely going on my time machine bucket list
Will Seaward (i'm sure i'm misspelling that) has an absolutely delightful voice. Tom if you ever see him again, please tell him that at least one person on the internet adores his voice.
So I think what we have learnt from this episode is that
...
Tom isn't French.
And that is something you might not have known.

Excellent series as expected, now unsee the grey dots at the cross points of the window frame. Sorry...
ikr!!!
crap ... it's that famous optical illusion but in real life!
you win the chance to shop for fancy facial hair

I'm going through the Wikipedia article and i can't find anything about the convent heist thing and challenging people to duels, perhaps they removed it :(
Some people say they did but they also put it back
Fuckin love her, absolute queen and a bi-con for the ages.
And now, 4 years later, almost all the interesting content was removed from the Wikipedia article due to lack of reliable sources.
Did we have a rare instance of multiple mystery biscuits?
Vihang Dixit Worth staying to the end for.
Vihang Dixit is hardly rare anymore
I can see why you didn't release this last week.
They joke about burning down buildings and there was a huge fire in London the day before it would have been posted.
Tom referred exactly to that. On Twitter, I believe. He even mentioned talking about building fires, too.
Luckily they managed to postpone the release on time, otherwise it would have been a very awkward episode to watch.
nanianmichaels they are good lads.
Best season 6 episode. I am in awe of Chris amazingly getting the awkwardly alluded alliteration award.
Can I just say that I LOVE this show? Best series I've seen in a long time, and it never gets old.
Tom you all never fail to impress. This season's been awesome, keep it up!
its great to watch one of these knowing all of the answers, i highly recommend it.
Brilliant! Already can't wait for the next episode. :)
can will stay as a fifth member?
For a moment there I thought "can" was the subject and "will" was the verb.
Capitalisation, my friend, capitalisation.
and "stay" was the object?
I can't remember the names of all the grammar thingies, but what I thought they meant was "there is a can, and that can will stay as a fifth member." And then there was a question mark for some reason, which made me rethink it.
Can would be a terrific addition to the show
Been waiting for this :D
Tom, I have to say, I love this section of yours. There is nothing like this in youtube!!
I’m part French and you’re doing way better than I ever could.
Singing and fencing at the same time? That's just "Confrontation" from Les Miserables -- In counterpoint no less!
Isn’t that like half of les miserables?
Fantastic series! Plus the extras!
I just love how twice in this clip, Gary's just stuck trying to process what he's hearing. Just...hands on temple, hunched over, with a sputtering "HOW CAN-?!"
Yes! I always knew her story would make a great episode of this show!
my day keeps getting better and better
Julie D'Aubigny was awesome, there should be films about her
I really love this show!
The official mistress of Louie 14 is my wife's 9th great grandma.
*Louis
I swear, Will is actually a cavalier.
Everybody's talking about turning her life into a tv show and I'm just sitting here thinking "That would make a damned good story for an opera!"
You know, one of the things I love about this series is that the humor is very classy and highbrow
I love this show. It's amazing
Lovely episode
That was delightful. Always nice to learn a thing or two about someone vastly more accomplished than I would ever be...
OUR WILL IS TO SEE MORE WILL! *coughs*
"He resurrected my father. Prepare to live."
So is this the one with a "burning buildings" reference?
Aniruddha Shanbhag Probably when they burned down the convent.
Good episode
Had so much fun seeing all of you struggling with French names. ;)
Luynes is pronounced roughly "luene", when using English pronunciation.
The last letter is silent (as so many words in French). Like... Jacques... for instance! :P
For some reason this is so funny! I have no idea why. I had to pause the video at mutliple points because I was laughng so hard.

Beth Nott more like bisexual no?
@@khoatran-pc6tb feels slightly more les than bi but fair enough
Aww, evidently in 2019 someone took a hatchet to the wikipedia page, cutting out over a third of it claiming it fiction.
Well most of it seems to be back now
The window in the back behind Tom and Chris is doing that illusion where grey spots appear where the lines cross.
Hey Tom, you got La marquise de Florensac pretty well pronounced :)
Allways pleasant, thank you and good job !
Matt looks so different in this episode
I can't stop looking at the window in the background, I keep getting the The Hermann grid illusion!
I like how they think about the prize more than to answering the questions
i love all of them so much
