Every November, we burn a wooden effigy of a dude who tried to burn down Parliament hundreds of years ago. We turn people we like into Knights. However, the most ridiculous thing that we have is our laws. If you wear a suit of armour in Parliament, they're legally allowed to cut your head off. This is ridiculous. That's not the only dumb British law. We've got tons of them, and I don't even know if anyone takes these things seriously. So today I'm going to test that and try and break as many ancient British laws as possible in one day in front of policemen and hope that I don't get arrested. Do you think that this is a suspicious fish? Oh, definitely. You know, there's a law where it's illegal to handle a salmon suspiciously. I've got the salmon; now I have to act suspiciously with it. He's checking if his car's locked. That's how fucking creepy I look. What've you got a fish for? Does it look suspicious to you? It doesn't look suspicious but it looks interesting. It's not suspicious? Alright I'll I try harder to be more suspicious. The fuck is that?! Ladies and gentlemen, would you like to see a man walking past with a fish? Pointless. You don't know if there's a library nearby do you? Apparently, it's illegal to gamble in a library. So me, stinking of salmon, I'm gonna go and try and make someone bet with me in this library and break that law. Excuse me, do either of you gamble? Yes, gamble, like Blackjack. We don't have to play for money if you don't want to. I've got a Sashimi-quality fish. Excuse me, I've got a great game of Blackjack. Sorry if I smell. How come you're doing this? I'm trying to break as many ancient laws as I can in a day. You going again? Oof, bust, 10p for me. I was gambling in a library! I'm gonna walk right into that building there in a suit of armour. Something that apparently you're supposed to get your head cut off for. - Hi there - Is it a public gallery? Yes! Um, not sure... - If the armour... - You haven't got a real sword have you? No, it's plastic. Sorry, this has never happened! - Have a look at the sign, make sure you don't have any of these. - I definitely don't have any of those Why are you dressed as a knight? I've just been filming around the corner doing a kids TV thing. - Okay - Amazing! I just went into Parliament wearing a suit of armour and I still have a head. Right, next one. You can't shake out a dirty rug in public. And also can't wear an outrageous double ruff. Or be be sock-less within a hundred yards of the Queen. Just shaking the rug. Alright. Wearing a double ruff, being sock-less. Is this like an anti-establishment thing or something? Are you filming now? There's a law against singing a lewd ballad in public. I'm pretty sure Tony Blair lives around here. I'll try and do a bit of improv. Just gonna sing a song. I've written a little song, if that's okay? If you do it on the other side of the road, yeah. Okay. Tony, Tony, how are you today? Tony boy Tony, please come out and play. You look like a marshmallow. Our eyes meet over the piano. Oh, I'd love to nestle my head on your fluffy chest. Tony boy, Tony, come out and play. Well I sang about hooking up with Tony Blair to his window. I guess that's lewd - that's another law broken another off the list. So stupid. I've never been to Downing Street before. 10 Downing Street: residence of the Prime Minister.
