1	----
2	* The ''Frightful First World War'' being dedicated to Private John Condon, who was the [[ChildSoldiers youngest British soldier]] to die in the First World War, at '''fourteen years old'''.
3	* The Horrible Christmas episode's sketch about the Germany/England football match on Christmas day.
4	--> '''English Soldier:''' Great game, mate!
5	--> '''German Soldier:''' Ja, ja! You want to change the shirts?
6	--> '''English Soldier:''' That might not be such a good idea, under the circumstances.
7	--> '''German Soldier:''' Aha! Hey, you a funny guy.
8	--> '''English Soldier:''': You're okay, too, chum. Happy Christmas.
9	--> '''German Soldier:''' Happy Christmas!
10	--> they shake hands
11	* Winston Churchill's lament after losing the vote to Atlee in 'Your Finest Hour' (parody of My Way)
12	---> "That’s what we killed for, what blood was spilled for. Your finest hour."
13	---> "The only cross, was one you wrote, ''[[WhamLine your brothers died, so you could vote]]''. Didn’t just beat me, you beat tyranny, Your finest hour!"
14	* The Historical Dating Service sketch featuring the infant Mary Queen of Scots... as played by Mathew Baynton's own infant son, wearing a tiara and sitting in his father's lap.
15	* Weaving in audio from one of UsefulNotes/WinstonChurchill 's speeches at the end of the RAF Pilots song is weirdly heartwarming considering the actual song.
16	** Also the fact that this song says "Some of the bravest men were Polish and Czech", giving a ShoutOut to some of the other nationalities that helped win the Battle of Britain.
17	* The love ballad of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. After so many tales of royals marrying for power and money, it's nice to hear about a couple who really did care about each other.
18	* Their sketch about James Hind manages to qualify. Hind was a royalist highwayman who [[HonorAmongThieves refused to steal from fellow royalists, and in fact]] ''[[HonorAmongThieves gave]]'' [[HonorAmongThieves them money]]. The royalist couple's pleasant surprise never fails to make one smile.
19	* Rosa Parks's song "I Sat on a Bus"; not only is it a great, uplifting ensemble piece, but it ends with a subtitle saying 'The Civil Rights Movement went on to end all segregation in America.'
20	* The "Viking Land" Simon & Garfunkel parody song. Hearing about the peaceful things Vikings did to Britain for a change is very nice.
21	* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2O09WE2cH8c&feature=youtube_gdata_player series finale]]. (Warning: also counts as an ''epic'' TearJerker for fans of the show). "We're history... and we made it Horrible!"
22	** In the final scene, the two Greek characters embrace each other as a sign of showing that they do care. Also, the two soldiers look at each other, knowing that they did well.
23	* "The Suffragette Song" which covers the period starting from 1903 and ends with the caption [[EarnYourHappyEnding "Women get the right to vote - 1918."]]
24	* A minor one in [[VillainSong "The Wives of Henry VIII"]] in the verse about Henry's third wife (who died in childbirth):
25	--> Lovely Jane Seymour was three.
26	--> The love of a lifetime for me.
