1
00:00:01,602 --> 00:00:06,563
I am Uhtred, son of Uhtred. I
was born an ealdorman of England.
2
00:00:06,673 --> 00:00:09,541
Our ancestors took this land
3
00:00:09,643 --> 00:00:11,236
and you will die
for it if needed.
4
00:00:11,612 --> 00:00:13,080
Kill them all!
5
00:00:13,247 --> 00:00:17,378
I saw my father killed in battle
and my uncle steal his lands.
6
00:00:17,484 --> 00:00:20,352
I was taken by the invaders.
7
00:00:20,454 --> 00:00:24,550
First as a slave and then
as a son to Earl Ragnar.
8
00:00:24,658 --> 00:00:27,287
That was my family, my life.
9
00:00:27,461 --> 00:00:30,863
Young Ragnar my
brother, and Brida my friend.
10
00:00:30,998 --> 00:00:34,992
Until my family were
murdered by Kjartan the Cruel
11
00:00:35,102 --> 00:00:37,799
and his one-eyed son Sven.
12
00:00:37,905 --> 00:00:41,398
And my sister taken hostage
on the eve of her wedding.
13
00:00:43,210 --> 00:00:44,610
I fled to Alfred,
14
00:00:44,912 --> 00:00:47,211
the Saxon King of Wessex.
15
00:00:48,115 --> 00:00:52,780
I fell in love with a Pagan queen
who saw my sister in a vision.
16
00:00:52,886 --> 00:00:56,789
Uhtred, she lives, and
is being held in the North.
17
00:00:58,725 --> 00:01:05,461
In the year 878 at Ethandune,
I fought alongside King Alfred
18
00:01:05,832 --> 00:01:09,928
to defeat the Danes and
drove them from Wessex,
19
00:01:10,070 --> 00:01:11,470
but at a great price.
20
00:01:12,205 --> 00:01:15,607
Uhtred Ragnason,
I have a gift for you!
21
00:01:15,709 --> 00:01:17,041
Your queen!
22
00:01:23,083 --> 00:01:27,214
Peace was secured with
hostages, Brida and Ragnar,
23
00:01:27,321 --> 00:01:32,055
and by the Danish earl's baptism
and acceptance of the Christian God.
24
00:01:32,659 --> 00:01:34,719
As for Uhtred the godless,
25
00:01:35,529 --> 00:01:38,761
my path led north,
to blood feuds,
26
00:01:38,899 --> 00:01:42,267
to revenge, and to Bebbanburg.
27
00:01:42,970 --> 00:01:45,701
Destiny is all...
28

29
00:02:30,484 --> 00:02:31,816
No mercy!
30
00:02:37,524 --> 00:02:39,049
No mercy!
31
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:42,960
Lord? Lord? Are
the ideas suitable?
32
00:02:43,096 --> 00:02:45,964
I've tried to show both
courage and sacrifice.
33
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,137
- Faced with a fearsome enemy.
- But I do not see God.
34
00:02:54,708 --> 00:02:57,405
- He was there, within us all.
- Praise Him.
35
00:02:57,577 --> 00:03:00,809
Word of the victory is being
spread throughout the land.
36
00:03:01,948 --> 00:03:05,146
People will hear
that it was God-given.
37
00:03:08,155 --> 00:03:09,589
He was amongst us.
38
00:03:13,727 --> 00:03:16,561
Aethelflaed, with me,
before you hurt him.
39
00:03:16,663 --> 00:03:17,824
Yes, Mother.
40
00:03:20,033 --> 00:03:22,798
The Witan is full to brimming.
41
00:03:22,936 --> 00:03:26,168
Every ealdorman and
his brother is here to bask.
42
00:03:27,574 --> 00:03:29,634
Not all of them deserving.
43
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,794
Wessex is safe.
44
00:03:52,032 --> 00:03:54,126
But, ealdormen,
45
00:03:54,234 --> 00:03:58,194
to keep Wessex safe, we must
now look beyond its borders,
46
00:03:58,305 --> 00:04:02,675
to Mercia, East Anglia, to
Cornwalum, Wales, and to the North,
47
00:04:04,211 --> 00:04:08,307
to Northumbria and to the once
great and holy city of Eoferwic,
48
00:04:08,482 --> 00:04:13,978
where now, Christian men and women
suffer under the dark rule of the Danes.
49
00:04:15,689 --> 00:04:17,920
There are two Northmen,
50
00:04:18,058 --> 00:04:21,153
Sigefrid and Erik,
two godless brothers
51
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:25,221
with a voracious appetite for
land, silver, slaves and war.
52
00:04:26,299 --> 00:04:30,134
I want it known and
I want them to know
53
00:04:31,404 --> 00:04:36,342
that God, Alfred and the
ealdormen of Wessex are watching.
54
00:04:38,645 --> 00:04:41,706
The day of reckoning will come.
55
00:05:02,068 --> 00:05:04,060
Make way, make way!
56
00:05:07,274 --> 00:05:08,742
Is this the palace
of King Alfred?
57
00:05:11,478 --> 00:05:14,209
Halt! Stand back
from the king's guard.
58
00:05:14,314 --> 00:05:16,442
I have a letter that
he will wish to read!
59
00:05:16,550 --> 00:05:18,314
You must let me pass.
60
00:05:19,319 --> 00:05:20,480
In all too soon a time,
61
00:05:20,587 --> 00:05:24,456
Aethelflaed will be old enough
for betrothal, then marriage.
62
00:05:24,558 --> 00:05:26,356
You require a list
of suitors, lord?
63
00:05:26,493 --> 00:05:30,294
I do. They must be a match for
my daughter, her mother, for Wessex
64
00:05:30,564 --> 00:05:32,226
and my idea of a united land.
65
00:05:32,332 --> 00:05:34,267
In which order, lord?
66
00:05:34,367 --> 00:05:37,337
Oh, do not ask me, my friend,
I pray I never need to choose.
67
00:05:37,470 --> 00:05:39,234
I have business with the king.
68
00:05:39,339 --> 00:05:44,300
Lord, forgive my interruption.
May I introduce Brother Trew?
69
00:05:44,978 --> 00:05:47,106
Lord, I am honoured.
70
00:05:47,347 --> 00:05:49,282
Brother Trew has
travelled from the North.
71
00:05:49,382 --> 00:05:52,318
Cumbraland, in the
west of Northumbria.
72
00:05:52,485 --> 00:05:55,250
He has a letter that tells
of a vision and a prophecy.
73
00:05:55,355 --> 00:05:57,347
From the heavens, lord, I swear.
74
00:06:01,361 --> 00:06:04,263
The Abbot Eadred of Cumbraland
did dream of the likeness
75
00:06:04,364 --> 00:06:06,333
and this likeness
did speak to him.
76
00:06:07,500 --> 00:06:09,332
The likeness was
of Saint Cuthbert.
77
00:06:09,436 --> 00:06:12,497
- Cuthbert?
- Speaking directly from heaven.
78
00:06:12,606 --> 00:06:15,735
The Abbot tells of Cuthbert's
instruction within the letter.
79
00:06:17,911 --> 00:06:21,609
Lord, for the Saxons and Britons
in the North, there is an urgency.
80
00:06:21,748 --> 00:06:23,979
We are lost.
81
00:06:24,117 --> 00:06:27,986
We are in general ruled by Danes.
We are in need of a Christian saviour.
82
00:06:28,121 --> 00:06:30,750
This saviour is Guthred.
83
00:06:31,057 --> 00:06:34,721
A man who is a lowly slave and
who himself must first be saved.
84
00:06:35,395 --> 00:06:37,364
At the behest of the
blessed Cuthbert.
85
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:45,602
The doors are open to the
elements, Brother Trew, nothing more.
86
00:06:46,406 --> 00:06:51,367
It can be done, lord, it can be
arranged, with your help and guidance.
87
00:06:53,246 --> 00:06:55,306
And you shall have it,
Brother Trew, I'm sure.
88
00:06:55,415 --> 00:06:58,317
Father Beocca, I will send for
you when I have read the letter,
89
00:06:58,418 --> 00:07:00,319
which I shall do
immediately. Do not wander.
90
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:01,547
No, lord.
91
00:07:11,765 --> 00:07:13,859
Influence beyond Wessex, Odda.
92
00:07:16,636 --> 00:07:18,400
Heaven sent.
93
00:07:26,446 --> 00:07:31,009
Come! Move on, move on. Come on.
94
00:08:05,518 --> 00:08:07,384
- Good day.
- It is, sister.
95
00:08:07,487 --> 00:08:09,615
Your sword.
96
00:08:12,325 --> 00:08:14,453
It is not your sword.
97
00:08:15,495 --> 00:08:18,294
You may keep the silver you
will have taken, but not the sword.
98
00:08:20,967 --> 00:08:25,132
You will turn and run, girl.
99
00:08:25,271 --> 00:08:26,899
I have killed.
100
00:08:29,175 --> 00:08:31,735
And I will kill again, I'm sure.
101
00:08:33,513 --> 00:08:36,745
But hopefully not today,
102
00:08:37,517 --> 00:08:38,883
girl.
103
00:08:42,255 --> 00:08:43,917
Morning, lord.
104
00:08:44,057 --> 00:08:46,856
- She did the very same thing to me.
- We're leaving.
105
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,429
Could you not have
shook me awake?
106
00:08:49,529 --> 00:08:51,998
Stop drinking and whoring
and do what we set out to do.
107
00:08:52,165 --> 00:08:53,189
I am wet!
108
00:08:53,333 --> 00:08:57,168
Your sword has been stolen,
lord, along with your silver.
109
00:08:58,371 --> 00:08:59,430
Hild!
110
00:08:59,539 --> 00:09:01,565
I have recovered Serpent-Breath,
111
00:09:01,708 --> 00:09:04,610
and when you are able to stand, I
shall return her. We will be leaving.
112
00:09:04,744 --> 00:09:09,205
I will decide when we're leaving.
I am Uhtred, son of Uhtred.
113
00:09:09,349 --> 00:09:11,545
I will not be schooled by a nun.
114
00:09:11,684 --> 00:09:14,984
She is not wrong, lord. You have
been drinking whole fields of barley.
115
00:09:15,121 --> 00:09:17,522
Nor will I be lectured
by an arseling!
116
00:09:38,645 --> 00:09:42,480
If you're drinking to forget
Iseult, you do her no favours.
117
00:09:42,582 --> 00:09:47,111
Her memory should be cherished,
not lost in a fog of ale and bosoms.
118
00:09:47,253 --> 00:09:48,653
My sword.
119
00:09:48,822 --> 00:09:52,020
Are we to ride to Northumbria and
to the next inn and the next jug of ale?
120
00:09:52,392 --> 00:09:57,490
What am I to do in Northumbria with
an army of two? A nun and a rag-arse?
121
00:09:57,597 --> 00:09:59,930
- A loyal rag-arse.
- Prepare yourself.
122
00:10:00,033 --> 00:10:04,403
To do what? Kill Kjartan and
the men who surround him?
123
00:10:04,537 --> 00:10:06,597
You can begin to
carry yourself as a lord.
124
00:10:06,940 --> 00:10:10,570
- Or we can return to Winchester.
- No. We cannot return to Winchester.
125
00:10:11,744 --> 00:10:14,839
Did she not say that
your path led north?
126
00:10:32,432 --> 00:10:33,593
Thank you.
127
00:11:41,367 --> 00:11:43,495
Forgive me, lord.
128
00:11:44,337 --> 00:11:46,670
Please, lord.
129
00:11:47,473 --> 00:11:50,238
May the gods protect
you on your quest.
130
00:11:50,710 --> 00:11:52,770
What do you know of my gods?
131
00:11:52,912 --> 00:11:54,847
Nothing, lord. I
meant no insult.
132
00:11:54,948 --> 00:11:58,112
Sigefrid, leave him,
he's just a priest.
133
00:11:58,284 --> 00:12:01,118
Come on, brother,
we have Scots to kill.
134
00:12:09,128 --> 00:12:10,494
Erik.
135
00:12:12,165 --> 00:12:16,603
The city, we leave in your hands.
It's ours. It must remain ours.
136
00:12:16,736 --> 00:12:18,500
I will ensure it.
137
00:12:18,605 --> 00:12:22,872
You have enough men. Keep them
sober and do not kill for the fun of it.
138
00:12:22,976 --> 00:12:24,638
No, lord.
139
00:12:24,744 --> 00:12:30,012
You do me a great honour, lord,
though I wish I was going with you.
140
00:12:43,630 --> 00:12:46,794
Remember, what we need
more than silver is women!
141
00:12:46,933 --> 00:12:49,664
Red-haired women!
142
00:12:51,304 --> 00:12:53,671
To the shield
wall that awaits us!
143
00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:55,833
To the joy of battle!
144
00:12:57,143 --> 00:13:01,444
And to the blood
of the Scots! Yeah!
145
00:13:30,610 --> 00:13:35,776
Ah, Father Hrothweard, we've
been waiting for you. I will serve.
146
00:13:42,255 --> 00:13:43,951
We must rise up.
147
00:13:46,693 --> 00:13:50,789
Every day we hear stories of
what has happened in Wessex.
148
00:13:52,098 --> 00:13:57,730
The brothers have this very
moment taken their army north.
149
00:13:57,837 --> 00:14:01,069
They will be gone
for months perhaps.
150
00:14:01,207 --> 00:14:04,405
There is no better
time than now.
151
00:14:05,078 --> 00:14:07,570
We must take Alfred's lead
152
00:14:07,847 --> 00:14:12,649
and kill every bastard Dane
and Northman in Eoferwic.
153
00:14:13,619 --> 00:14:16,748
In the name of the Father,
the Son and the Holy Spirit.
154
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:19,257
I'm not saying grace!
155
00:14:19,859 --> 00:14:21,828
It is a battle cry!
156
00:15:02,935 --> 00:15:04,130
Smoke.
157
00:15:06,672 --> 00:15:08,868
Come.
158
00:15:26,292 --> 00:15:27,385
Danes.
159
00:15:34,801 --> 00:15:37,134
Danes would not
slaughter Danes like this.
160
00:15:44,477 --> 00:15:47,413
If there is slaughter, lord, and
there appears to be slaughter,
161
00:15:47,547 --> 00:15:49,277
why do we ride towards it?
162
00:15:50,983 --> 00:15:52,918
We are curious.
163
00:15:59,959 --> 00:16:03,623
Fight the Dane!
Test your sword-craft!
164
00:16:03,963 --> 00:16:09,527
Do battle with a turd,
directly from the devil's arse!
165
00:16:11,137 --> 00:16:14,005
You can cut him but
you cannot kill him!
166
00:16:14,607 --> 00:16:17,839
And if he kills
you, then so be it!
167
00:16:17,977 --> 00:16:19,946
More fool you!
168
00:16:24,417 --> 00:16:26,750
Hit him! Hit him!
169
00:16:28,154 --> 00:16:30,248
Hit him!
170
00:16:41,467 --> 00:16:42,958
Go on! Hit him!
171
00:16:44,237 --> 00:16:45,603
Lord?
172
00:16:46,439 --> 00:16:48,806
Lord, we are Saxons,
it's none of our business.
173
00:16:52,011 --> 00:16:52,910
Ohh!
174
00:16:53,012 --> 00:16:55,641
If it is a fight you
want, it can be with me.
175
00:16:58,184 --> 00:17:01,552
This is Lord Uhtred of
Bebbanburg and of Wessex!
176
00:17:02,255 --> 00:17:04,190
It is sport, lord, a pastime.
177
00:17:04,357 --> 00:17:09,557
Your sport is over. Pick
up your sword. Pick it up.
178
00:17:10,263 --> 00:17:14,030
Lord, this man belongs
to me. He's my prisoner.
179
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,631
He was left in command.
180
00:17:16,769 --> 00:17:17,964
Is it Valhalla you want?
181
00:17:19,038 --> 00:17:24,067
In time. Lord, freedom
would be my first choice.
182
00:17:24,210 --> 00:17:28,011
- Who do you serve?
- The brothers, Sigefrid and Erik.
183
00:17:30,216 --> 00:17:31,650
They've gone to fight the Scots.
184
00:17:31,784 --> 00:17:34,117
I beg you, lord, he
will be my income.
185
00:17:35,454 --> 00:17:37,923
Halig, give this piece
of weasel shit a coin.
186
00:17:38,057 --> 00:17:41,050
A coin, lord? He would
be my income for a year...
187
00:17:41,193 --> 00:17:42,821
No more word, I'm warning you!
188
00:17:49,135 --> 00:17:51,229
- Leave now.
- What?
189
00:17:52,305 --> 00:17:53,466
Go.
190
00:17:59,211 --> 00:18:01,612
You! You!
191
00:18:02,081 --> 00:18:04,050
State your name
and your business.
192
00:18:05,084 --> 00:18:09,078
You keep the company of a nun,
yet look every piece of you a Dane!
193
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:14,026
My business is my own
and not that of a priest.
194
00:18:14,126 --> 00:18:16,254
He's Uhtred of
Bebbanburg, Father.
195
00:18:18,097 --> 00:18:19,097
Uhtred?
196
00:18:19,699 --> 00:18:24,728
You are the Uhtred who
served with Alfred at Ethandun?
197
00:18:24,870 --> 00:18:25,997
I am.
198
00:18:26,105 --> 00:18:28,131
Praise Him.
199
00:18:28,474 --> 00:18:31,273
Praise God. It is a sign.
200
00:18:32,111 --> 00:18:33,374
You know of Ethandun?
201
00:18:33,746 --> 00:18:38,275
Not only do we know of this battle,
lord, we have risen because of it.
202
00:18:38,384 --> 00:18:42,515
And just days ago, Alfred
has sent his very own priest.
203
00:18:43,522 --> 00:18:45,855
You killed all the Danes
that ruled Eoferwic?
204
00:18:45,958 --> 00:18:49,258
We have. All those
that did not flee.
205
00:18:51,897 --> 00:18:54,765
The holy city of
Eoferwic welcomes you.
206
00:18:55,601 --> 00:19:00,096
We will give you food and
shelter and thanks, Lord Uhtred.
207
00:19:03,075 --> 00:19:04,737
God bless you.
208
00:19:10,983 --> 00:19:15,011
We take care of the horses
and then I find Alfred's priest.
209
00:19:17,590 --> 00:19:19,115
Huh.
210
00:19:26,198 --> 00:19:28,030
Clear the way.
211
00:19:35,775 --> 00:19:38,506
We carry it all, we must.
212
00:19:38,611 --> 00:19:42,048
But what guarantee do we have
that he will not steal Alfred's silver?
213
00:19:42,181 --> 00:19:45,083
None, but that's the
risk we have to take.
214
00:19:45,184 --> 00:19:48,154
Have you been stealing
from Alfred, Father Beocca?
215
00:19:48,821 --> 00:19:51,313
Uhtred! Oh, my goodness, Uhtred!
216
00:19:51,424 --> 00:19:55,259
Wow! What a
joy it is to see you.
217
00:19:55,428 --> 00:19:57,556
And for me to see
your hairless head.
218
00:19:58,864 --> 00:20:01,390
I have been praying that
our paths would cross!
219
00:20:01,534 --> 00:20:03,628
This is a sign. God's will.
220
00:20:04,336 --> 00:20:08,103
Brother Trew, this is the man
I have been speaking about.
221
00:20:08,207 --> 00:20:12,008
And here he is. In our
time of need, he is here.
222
00:20:13,212 --> 00:20:17,274
We are travelling north with
Alfred's blessing and silver.
223
00:20:17,416 --> 00:20:22,616
It is a ransom to be paid to free a
slave, but he is no ordinary slave.
224
00:20:22,755 --> 00:20:25,224
This man is marked
to become a king.
225
00:20:25,391 --> 00:20:27,587
- Of Cumbraland.
- His name is Guthred.
226
00:20:28,360 --> 00:20:31,057
- A Dane?
- But a good man, a man of God.
227
00:20:32,064 --> 00:20:35,762
The spirit of Saint Cuthbert has
decreed that Guthred shall be king.
228
00:20:35,868 --> 00:20:38,360
- A prophecy.
- Oh, my good lord.
229
00:20:38,471 --> 00:20:41,441
He appeared in a dream to the
Abbot Eadred of Cumbraland.
230
00:20:41,574 --> 00:20:44,305
He named Guthred as king
of both Saxons and Danes.
231
00:20:46,579 --> 00:20:48,138
How many men is that?
232
00:20:48,247 --> 00:20:49,715
Hundreds. Thousands, perhaps.
233
00:20:49,849 --> 00:20:52,114
- Warriors?
- Some, yes.
234
00:20:52,284 --> 00:20:53,308
Of course.
235
00:20:56,021 --> 00:21:01,119
Alfred would not be content with this
man being solely king of Cumbraland.
236
00:21:01,260 --> 00:21:04,128
Well, yes, Alfred would
wish for Guthred's influence
237
00:21:04,263 --> 00:21:06,164
to spread across the
whole of Northumbria.
238
00:21:06,265 --> 00:21:08,598
Including here, in Eoferwic.
239
00:21:10,269 --> 00:21:13,706
Come with us. Help
us to free Guthred,
240
00:21:13,873 --> 00:21:15,842
protect the ransom
until it is delivered,
241
00:21:15,941 --> 00:21:18,137
and I'm sure there
will be a reward.
242
00:21:18,277 --> 00:21:20,837
Your bargain is with whom?
243
00:21:20,946 --> 00:21:22,505
A slave-master.
244
00:21:22,648 --> 00:21:25,083
The village in which we
are meeting sits on land
245
00:21:25,217 --> 00:21:27,186
that belongs to
someone from your past.
246
00:21:27,286 --> 00:21:29,050
Kjartan.
247
00:21:33,225 --> 00:21:36,627
Kjartan's land will be
full of men, warriors?
248
00:21:36,762 --> 00:21:38,856
Father, who's
protected you so far?
249
00:21:38,964 --> 00:21:40,193
Do you have no guard?
250
00:21:40,299 --> 00:21:43,736
We have gathered a group of sickly
men who suffer with the white riff.
251
00:21:43,903 --> 00:21:45,496
Leprosy is a terrible curse.
252
00:21:45,638 --> 00:21:49,268
Put these poor creatures in a
cart and no man dare approach.
253
00:21:49,375 --> 00:21:54,075
No one can imagine the
treasure sitting beside the disease.
254
00:21:55,548 --> 00:22:00,213
Your king, Guthred.
Kjartan would be his enemy?
255
00:22:00,319 --> 00:22:03,221
He would. It was Kjartan's
men killed his father.
256
00:22:03,322 --> 00:22:06,190
Guthred himself was
captured and sold as a slave.
257
00:22:08,694 --> 00:22:11,858
Then he would be prepared to
raise an army against Kjartan?
258
00:22:11,964 --> 00:22:13,865
He would be an ally, I'm sure.
259
00:22:13,999 --> 00:22:16,195
As I'm sure Uhtred
is but one man.
260
00:22:16,335 --> 00:22:17,462
- Against many.
- No.
261
00:22:17,570 --> 00:22:22,372
No, Uhtred is more than just one
man. And he is here for a reason.
262
00:22:33,385 --> 00:22:36,184
I have come to wish
you goodnight, lord.
263
00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:43,352
Rest well.
264
00:22:46,365 --> 00:22:47,628
Stay.
265
00:22:51,437 --> 00:22:52,803
Stay.
266
00:23:11,123 --> 00:23:12,716
I have been thinking
of Northumbria.
267
00:23:13,459 --> 00:23:15,985
Eoferwic is the
great city of the north.
268
00:23:16,328 --> 00:23:19,059
To make it Saxon once
again would bring hope.
269
00:23:19,198 --> 00:23:20,928
It would be a beacon.
270
00:23:21,533 --> 00:23:23,001
Yes.
271
00:23:23,135 --> 00:23:28,870
A fortress from which all Danes
of the North could be challenged
272
00:23:29,041 --> 00:23:31,237
and England grows.
273
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,409
Should you not
be sleeping, lord?
274
00:24:04,443 --> 00:24:07,413
Yes, I should be sleeping.
275
00:24:13,919 --> 00:24:17,253
I've always intended to ask about
the amber on the hilt of your sword.
276
00:24:17,389 --> 00:24:21,258
- Hmm?
- Is it decoration or something more?
277
00:24:21,660 --> 00:24:24,425
It was given to me at
my birth by my father...
278
00:24:28,267 --> 00:24:29,530
to remind me of who I am.
279
00:24:33,672 --> 00:24:35,937
Who you are, lord...
280
00:24:37,543 --> 00:24:40,240
is defined by what you do,
281
00:24:40,346 --> 00:24:43,077
and what you have done
has given you reputation,
282
00:24:45,117 --> 00:24:46,676
but reputation is not a shield.
283
00:24:53,525 --> 00:24:56,427
I think Father Beocca
asks too much.
284
00:25:02,101 --> 00:25:03,125
No.
285
00:25:06,171 --> 00:25:08,333
No, it's fate that I am here.
286
00:25:11,510 --> 00:25:16,346
It was fate you drenched me
in water, set us on our way.
287
00:25:19,952 --> 00:25:22,945
Kjartan will have men
at this village, no doubt.
288
00:25:24,656 --> 00:25:26,648
But he and his
one-eyed son Sven,
289
00:25:26,759 --> 00:25:29,354
they murdered my family
and they must be faced.
290
00:25:32,097 --> 00:25:34,328
And I have my sister to find.
291
00:25:37,536 --> 00:25:39,664
Are you certain she still lives?
292
00:25:40,572 --> 00:25:42,700
Iseult was certain.
293
00:25:49,615 --> 00:25:51,208
Then you should sleep.
294
00:25:55,521 --> 00:25:56,521
Hild.
295
00:25:58,023 --> 00:26:00,549
I would sleep easier
lying next to a woman.
296
00:26:03,328 --> 00:26:05,524
Shall I fetch
another bucket, lord?
297
00:26:32,591 --> 00:26:34,389
We move!
298
00:26:59,084 --> 00:27:03,522
Can you smell the northern
sea, boy, the Northumbrian air?
299
00:27:03,622 --> 00:27:06,023
I smell it and I
feel it, Father.
300
00:27:06,158 --> 00:27:08,218
- It feels like home.
- That it does.
301
00:28:04,550 --> 00:28:06,849
I'd prefer you not
to look at me, lord.
302
00:28:07,152 --> 00:28:10,020
Is it wrong that I
look? You have beauty.
303
00:28:10,355 --> 00:28:12,517
And you have an appetite
I do not wish to satisfy.
304
00:28:13,725 --> 00:28:16,058
I'm with you, lord,
because I'm safe with you.
305
00:28:23,969 --> 00:28:27,963
I would like you to teach
me how to fight. Swordcraft.
306
00:28:28,106 --> 00:28:32,168
Skill. The Danes
call it sword skill.
307
00:28:32,311 --> 00:28:35,645
Then I would like you
to teach me sword skill.
308
00:28:35,747 --> 00:28:38,649
To help you kill men who stare?
309
00:28:38,750 --> 00:28:42,881
No, lord, to protect
myself and those I care for.
310
00:28:44,723 --> 00:28:46,851
Yourself included.
311
00:28:56,535 --> 00:28:59,937
I give to you my heart,
my soul, and ask in return...
312
00:29:00,072 --> 00:29:03,634
We are being followed. You
are aware of this, I'm sure.
313
00:29:03,742 --> 00:29:05,802
- I am.
- We are?
314
00:29:06,878 --> 00:29:08,107
By whom?
315
00:29:08,213 --> 00:29:10,739
Men belonging to Kjartan.
316
00:29:11,750 --> 00:29:13,912
They are the shepherds,
we are the sheep.
317
00:29:14,019 --> 00:29:17,114
- Then it is a trap?
- It is.
318
00:29:17,222 --> 00:29:19,691
You will enter the
slave market alone.
319
00:29:19,791 --> 00:29:21,623
And then what happens? Death?
320
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,662
I will follow. I will
be with the lepers.
321
00:29:24,763 --> 00:29:26,732
You will not be at our side?
322
00:29:26,832 --> 00:29:29,734
- No.
- Your purpose here is to protect us.
323
00:29:29,835 --> 00:29:31,667
Do they ride?
324
00:29:31,770 --> 00:29:34,968
You wish to know if the
lepers can ride? I have no idea.
325
00:29:35,107 --> 00:29:36,598
Beocca, what is this nonsense?
326
00:29:36,775 --> 00:29:39,836
If we are to save Guthred and
live to see him crowned king,
327
00:29:39,978 --> 00:29:42,447
then the slaver and whoever
sits with him must fear me.
328
00:29:42,581 --> 00:29:44,675
They will not bargain.
329
00:29:44,783 --> 00:29:47,685
And I am but one man, so...
330
00:29:47,786 --> 00:29:50,654
they must fear me
and I will choose how.
331
00:29:52,557 --> 00:29:55,686
Beocca, I will need
you to play your part.
332
00:29:57,796 --> 00:29:59,788
Move!
333
00:30:02,034 --> 00:30:04,003
Move it!
334
00:30:04,136 --> 00:30:07,129
You like this one, huh?
He's fast, very hard working.
335
00:30:07,239 --> 00:30:08,707
- Bring another one.
- Over here!
336
00:30:10,175 --> 00:30:12,667
This one, one of my best.
337
00:30:13,412 --> 00:30:15,472
You? You like him?
338
00:30:15,981 --> 00:30:20,180
He's very strong, very young.
Something for you, huh?
339
00:30:23,422 --> 00:30:25,550
Horseman approaching!
340
00:30:35,300 --> 00:30:40,500
Hello. It is my friend,
the silver monk.
341
00:30:40,639 --> 00:30:42,870
And with guests.
342
00:30:44,843 --> 00:30:47,813
And a woman. How pleasing.
343
00:30:49,848 --> 00:30:51,817
Ah.
344
00:30:51,917 --> 00:30:56,685
I have forgotten your name, silver
monk, but not our price. Do you have it?
345
00:30:56,822 --> 00:30:58,848
Do you have our man, Guthred?
346
00:30:59,191 --> 00:31:01,990
I have your man. Of
course I have your man.
347
00:31:02,294 --> 00:31:07,858
- Then I will see him.
- No. You will give me the silver, now.
348
00:31:12,871 --> 00:31:14,305
She looks strong.
349
00:31:14,940 --> 00:31:17,603
- I like that.
- The woman is not part of the price.
350
00:31:17,709 --> 00:31:21,703
Good strong legs
to hold on to my arse.
351
00:31:21,847 --> 00:31:25,784
I wish to see Guthred.
Guthred! Make yourself known!
352
00:31:25,884 --> 00:31:27,853
Guthred of Cumbraland!
353
00:31:28,954 --> 00:31:31,082
Can you hear me?
354
00:31:31,256 --> 00:31:33,885
I will decide when
you see your man.
355
00:31:34,926 --> 00:31:37,919
You will give us the ransom
and you will give it now.
356
00:31:39,898 --> 00:31:42,561
You will do everything I say.
357
00:31:53,111 --> 00:31:55,103
You will come down
from your horse, girl.
358
00:32:11,897 --> 00:32:13,559
Too old to keep.
359
00:32:13,698 --> 00:32:16,600
- Take off your skirts.
- I will not.
360
00:32:20,272 --> 00:32:22,332
Lord, there are
horsemen missing.
361
00:32:23,675 --> 00:32:25,837
- What are you saying?
- Men are missing.
362
00:32:25,944 --> 00:32:28,675
I counted five more
horses than are here.
363
00:32:28,947 --> 00:32:30,415
They must be hiding, lord.
364
00:32:30,549 --> 00:32:35,852
Priest? Is my man correct?
There are further horsemen?
365
00:32:35,954 --> 00:32:40,858
He is correct, lord, but these
horsemen, they came from nowhere,
366
00:32:40,959 --> 00:32:42,894
asking us to where
we were travelling
367
00:32:42,994 --> 00:32:45,862
and we prayed that they
would leave us, vanish.
368
00:32:45,964 --> 00:32:47,762
You wanted rid of them?
369
00:32:49,034 --> 00:32:52,994
Believe me when I say this,
they were not of this world, lord.
370
00:32:53,138 --> 00:32:54,936
They were not men,
like you and I are men.
371
00:32:56,808 --> 00:32:58,777
What do you mean,
they're not men?
372
00:32:58,944 --> 00:33:01,539
Well, why are you doing that?
373
00:33:01,780 --> 00:33:04,875
This, signing your god?
374
00:33:04,983 --> 00:33:08,044
We are asking his protection,
lord, from the horsemen.
375
00:33:08,186 --> 00:33:12,214
- If they're not men, what are they?
- Please!
376
00:33:12,357 --> 00:33:13,985
To speak of them
may summon them.
377
00:33:14,125 --> 00:33:16,856
From where? You tell me nothing.
378
00:33:16,995 --> 00:33:19,756
Can we not simply give you the
silver and be on our way, lord? Please.
379
00:33:19,998 --> 00:33:24,060
There is nothing to fear
but the lies of a priest.
380
00:33:25,337 --> 00:33:27,431
I know it.
381
00:33:30,609 --> 00:33:31,633
Lord?
382
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:34,904
Oh, dear God in
heaven, it is him.
383
00:33:35,013 --> 00:33:36,914
It is who?
384
00:34:02,774 --> 00:34:04,367
We come for your souls!
385
00:34:07,612 --> 00:34:09,979
- Your souls!
- Who are you?
386
00:34:10,081 --> 00:34:14,917
I am Odin's messenger to
command. I come from Corpse Hall!
387
00:34:15,720 --> 00:34:17,416
You're Sven Kjartanson?
388
00:34:19,057 --> 00:34:20,616
You will answer me!
389
00:34:21,192 --> 00:34:23,957
What do you want
with Sven Kjartanson?
390
00:34:24,062 --> 00:34:29,023
I've been sent to take the
souls of both Kjartan and his son.
391
00:34:29,134 --> 00:34:30,295
Attack.
392
00:34:30,669 --> 00:34:33,002
Attack!
393
00:34:45,483 --> 00:34:49,818
No man shall move, or
Sven Kjartanson will die!
394
00:34:50,255 --> 00:34:54,989
You will all hear me. All of
you must leave this place.
395
00:34:55,093 --> 00:34:59,724
Go! Or with one touch of my
horsemen, you will be cursed.
396
00:34:59,898 --> 00:35:01,059
Go!
397
00:35:05,103 --> 00:35:08,437
You are going nowhere
but to the devil himself.
398
00:35:12,777 --> 00:35:16,441
I should kill you now. I
should take you piece by piece.
399
00:35:16,748 --> 00:35:20,014
- No, please, spare me.
- Odin would forgive me I'm sure of it.
400
00:35:20,118 --> 00:35:23,020
- I will be a changed man.
- You will never change.
401
00:35:23,121 --> 00:35:25,886
- You cannot change!
- Lord!
402
00:35:28,126 --> 00:35:32,393
Lord, I beg you. That
he fears you is enough.
403
00:35:32,530 --> 00:35:34,897
Let him take that
fear to Kjartan.
404
00:35:43,942 --> 00:35:48,073
May we free the prisoners, lord?
Search the pens for a friend? A king.
405
00:35:49,314 --> 00:35:51,306
You may.
406
00:35:51,483 --> 00:35:54,112
I have no business with you.
407
00:35:54,285 --> 00:35:55,981
Thank you, lord.
408
00:35:56,121 --> 00:35:59,114
We shall leave this place just
as soon as we have found him.
409
00:35:59,424 --> 00:36:01,120
It would be for the best.
410
00:36:07,832 --> 00:36:10,301
Guthred! Guthred?
411
00:36:12,170 --> 00:36:16,130
We are looking for Guthred of
Cumbraland. Son of Harthacnut.
412
00:36:16,241 --> 00:36:17,766
I am Guthred.
413
00:36:19,544 --> 00:36:21,308
- How can I help you?
- Lord?
414
00:36:23,448 --> 00:36:24,780
Is it you?
415
00:36:25,617 --> 00:36:27,745
We have found you.
416
00:36:28,253 --> 00:36:30,154
You have, it seems.
417
00:36:31,222 --> 00:36:33,088
Who are you?
418
00:36:33,191 --> 00:36:35,160
Find your way home in darkness.
419
00:36:36,628 --> 00:36:38,153
Hear me!
420
00:36:40,999 --> 00:36:42,399
Hear me now!
421
00:36:43,802 --> 00:36:47,569
A silver coin to any
man who will untie me!
422
00:36:49,207 --> 00:36:54,373
Two coins! And...
And my father's thanks!
423
00:36:57,482 --> 00:36:59,178
Who is there? Name yourself.
424
00:37:03,354 --> 00:37:06,654
If you are on this land,
you will know who I am.
425
00:37:06,791 --> 00:37:09,056
You will know not to harm me.
426
00:37:40,992 --> 00:37:44,326
The priest tells me it is you
I must thank for my freedom.
427
00:37:45,263 --> 00:37:47,129
I did not raise the ransom.
428
00:37:47,265 --> 00:37:50,633
A ransom was not paid. It
goes back to the Church.
429
00:37:51,669 --> 00:37:56,073
Some coins should
go to them, the lepers.
430
00:37:56,274 --> 00:37:58,266
Without them, we'd all be dead.
431
00:37:58,409 --> 00:38:02,073
As I am apparently now king,
I shall see they are rewarded.
432
00:38:02,881 --> 00:38:04,543
This is for you.
433
00:38:09,087 --> 00:38:11,181
A king brings me food.
434
00:38:11,289 --> 00:38:14,088
- Did Alfred not feed you?
- You know of Alfred?
435
00:38:14,259 --> 00:38:19,254
Aye, every Dane in the land
knows of Alfred, and while a slave,
436
00:38:19,364 --> 00:38:22,095
some of the men recently
captured, they spoke of Ethandun.
437
00:38:22,867 --> 00:38:27,066
They spoke of Uhtred,
how he broke a shield wall.
438
00:38:28,173 --> 00:38:30,768
You should pay a
skald to write a song.
439
00:38:30,942 --> 00:38:33,036
Huh. I did that, in Mercia.
440
00:38:33,778 --> 00:38:37,271
I was drunk and the
song was tuneless.
441
00:38:40,685 --> 00:38:42,278
I am indebted.
442
00:38:42,987 --> 00:38:45,081
My words have no tune,
443
00:38:45,323 --> 00:38:46,916
but they're sincere.
444
00:38:48,459 --> 00:38:50,655
You have brought
me back to life.
445
00:38:53,064 --> 00:38:56,364
- Then you owe me.
- I do. I do.
446
00:38:57,502 --> 00:38:59,232
Serve me.
447
00:38:59,337 --> 00:39:03,570
- Serve you?
- Join me. A king needs a commander.
448
00:39:06,311 --> 00:39:10,009
Think on it, Uhtred of Wessex.
449
00:39:10,348 --> 00:39:11,976
I'm of Bebbanburg.
450
00:39:12,116 --> 00:39:13,812
Yes, you are, you are.
451
00:39:13,952 --> 00:39:16,080
Is it your intention
to build an army?
452
00:39:17,889 --> 00:39:21,985
- Last night I was still a slave.
- Build an army and I will command it,
453
00:39:22,126 --> 00:39:26,188
but only if it's your intention to go
against all the lords of the North.
454
00:39:26,331 --> 00:39:29,733
Kjartan, but also the brothers
and the man who stole my land.
455
00:39:30,368 --> 00:39:32,234
My own uncle.
456
00:39:32,370 --> 00:39:34,339
That, I owe you.
457
00:39:35,006 --> 00:39:37,168
Uhtred of Bebbanburg.
458
00:39:39,844 --> 00:39:42,336
Now I must get used to who I am.
459
00:39:44,816 --> 00:39:46,216
Enjoy.
460
00:40:29,827 --> 00:40:32,797
Why would a dead horseman
ride with sickly lepers?
461
00:40:33,898 --> 00:40:35,958
- Were they dead too?
- I did not ask.
462
00:40:38,002 --> 00:40:40,767
He need ride with no man.
463
00:40:41,105 --> 00:40:44,337
He's dead. Invincible.
464
00:40:44,442 --> 00:40:48,345
Father, it was as I say.
I know what I witnessed.
465
00:40:48,446 --> 00:40:51,348
- How are we to kill a dead man?
- Cut him into pieces. Tiny...
466
00:40:51,449 --> 00:40:54,681
It's a trick! He's a lie!
467
00:40:54,819 --> 00:40:57,414
Go shut her up! Your bitch!
468
00:41:03,461 --> 00:41:05,362
It did not appear to be a trick.
469
00:41:05,463 --> 00:41:07,864
Everything I've said is true.
470
00:41:11,336 --> 00:41:12,429
You. Fiske.
471
00:41:13,905 --> 00:41:16,602
Do you believe this horseman
is back from the dead?
472
00:41:18,076 --> 00:41:20,341
Yes, lord, it seemed that way.
473
00:41:21,446 --> 00:41:24,348
Then you believe he was
sent by Odin to take my soul?
474
00:41:29,287 --> 00:41:33,349
Well, he arrived with
the priest and a ransom...
475
00:41:34,492 --> 00:41:36,518
- Yes, lord.
- But no silver was paid?
476
00:41:36,661 --> 00:41:39,825
- No, lord.
- Still, they took their man.
477
00:41:47,138 --> 00:41:48,504
We find the slave,
478
00:41:49,507 --> 00:41:52,705
we find the lepers
and we find the priest.
479
00:41:54,645 --> 00:41:57,877
Together they will tell us all we
need to know about this horseman.
480
00:41:59,517 --> 00:42:02,487
Dead or otherwise.
481
00:42:19,370 --> 00:42:21,498
You are not welcome here.
482
00:42:24,709 --> 00:42:26,769
You are never welcome here.
483
00:42:27,812 --> 00:42:30,543
My father asks for you
to keep the hounds quiet.
484
00:42:32,984 --> 00:42:40,118
Thyra, if you do not comply,
he will have them killed, again.
485
00:42:40,224 --> 00:42:42,523
And again, you
shall bring me pups.
486
00:42:43,494 --> 00:42:45,156
He will have men hump you.
487
00:42:48,566 --> 00:42:53,095
I tell you every time, you
do not need to live like this.
488
00:42:54,572 --> 00:42:58,566
You don't need to eat
and sleep with hounds.
489
00:42:58,709 --> 00:43:00,541
It is my wish.
490
00:43:05,583 --> 00:43:08,815
I dream of you, as you were.
491
00:43:11,589 --> 00:43:13,558
I dream of nothing but the fire.
492
00:43:28,606 --> 00:43:32,134
My wedding necklace.
Do you like it?
493
00:43:38,783 --> 00:43:41,947
If any love for me remains
inside your shrivelled heart,
494
00:43:42,086 --> 00:43:45,022
then take out your
knife and kill me.
495
00:44:19,423 --> 00:44:22,188
So you know of the
Northmen, Sigefrid and Erik?
496
00:44:22,293 --> 00:44:24,819
They have gone to
Alba, to fight the Scots.
497
00:44:26,531 --> 00:44:30,093
- A mistake.
- Yes, they will lose numbers.
498
00:44:31,502 --> 00:44:34,336
The men they left at
Eoferwic have been slain.
499
00:44:34,872 --> 00:44:36,704
It's open and unguarded.
500
00:44:36,841 --> 00:44:39,242
Only my second day
as King of Cumbraland.
501
00:44:39,343 --> 00:44:41,835
Already you wish me to
become king of Eoferwic?
502
00:44:41,946 --> 00:44:45,713
Why wait? The brothers
will return, weakened or not.
503
00:44:46,684 --> 00:44:49,654
I'd rather they remain
outside the walls of Eoferwic.
504
00:44:51,689 --> 00:44:54,659
Lord! Lord, the Roman wall!
505
00:44:57,762 --> 00:45:01,665
We follow the wall all the
way to Cumbraland. Home.
506
00:45:04,068 --> 00:45:07,630
And then, Uhtred, we
prepare to take Eoferwic.
507
00:45:22,720 --> 00:45:24,348
Your king!
508
00:45:24,689 --> 00:45:27,955
Your king, he is coming!
509
00:45:28,092 --> 00:45:31,494
- Prepare! Your king!
- The king's coming!
510
00:45:31,596 --> 00:45:35,590
He will be here soon.
Be sure to greet him.
511
00:45:35,733 --> 00:45:37,793
Make him feel welcome.
512
00:45:38,169 --> 00:45:40,900
The abbot. Where is the abbot?
513
00:45:44,742 --> 00:45:47,644
- Brother Trew?
- Lady Gisela.
514
00:45:47,745 --> 00:45:51,079
- You appear to have news?
- Lady, I do, great news.
515
00:45:51,182 --> 00:45:53,310
- What?
- He is here.
516
00:45:53,417 --> 00:45:56,216
- Who?
- Your brother, the king.
517
00:45:57,922 --> 00:45:58,981
He lives?
518
00:45:59,123 --> 00:46:01,592
Oh, he is well and
he is near, very near.
519
00:46:01,726 --> 00:46:03,490
I must inform Abbot Eadred.
520
00:46:03,995 --> 00:46:06,089
Brother Trew.
521
00:46:22,380 --> 00:46:24,440
Lord Abbot.
522
00:46:25,783 --> 00:46:27,752
He is here.
523
00:46:29,987 --> 00:46:32,547
They believe you
to be the king, lord.
524
00:46:33,791 --> 00:46:35,259
Then let him be the king.
525
00:46:36,794 --> 00:46:38,319
King for the day.
526
00:46:38,429 --> 00:46:40,728
- Bless you, King.
- Thank you.
527
00:46:40,831 --> 00:46:42,823
Thank you, and may
God bless you all.
528
00:46:42,967 --> 00:46:45,562
Uhtred, that is
almost blasphemy.
529
00:46:45,736 --> 00:46:49,195
Thank you all for taking
the time to greet the king.
530
00:46:49,340 --> 00:46:52,469
You will stop this nonsense.
531
00:46:52,610 --> 00:46:54,408
Beocca, they love me.
532
00:46:54,545 --> 00:46:56,707
Because they have no
idea what a fool you are.
533
00:46:56,814 --> 00:46:59,545
Be careful, priest, or
he will have your head.
534
00:46:59,817 --> 00:47:01,877
Not before he feels my boot.
535
00:47:03,054 --> 00:47:07,048
And may I present to you
Queen Hild of the water bucket,
536
00:47:07,191 --> 00:47:10,355
scourge of slavers and once
thrown out of the nunnery.
537
00:47:10,461 --> 00:47:13,795
I was not. The lord tells
lies and all too easily.
538
00:47:14,165 --> 00:47:16,498
I will be the first to
greet him formally.
539
00:47:16,634 --> 00:47:18,762
- You will all wait upon my word.
- Yes, lord.
540
00:47:24,241 --> 00:47:25,732
Lord King!
541
00:47:25,843 --> 00:47:27,869
Lord King!
542
00:47:28,312 --> 00:47:31,874
- Lord King! I am the Abbot Eadred.
- Abbot, no.
543
00:47:32,016 --> 00:47:37,114
It is I to whom the blessed St
Cuthbert appeared in a dream,
544
00:47:37,254 --> 00:47:39,519
- a glorious dream.
- Abbot, please.
545
00:47:39,657 --> 00:47:42,752
He showed me your face.
546
00:47:42,860 --> 00:47:46,092
- And he called you king.
- Thank you.
547
00:47:46,864 --> 00:47:50,665
Are you sure that it
was not this face here
548
00:47:50,835 --> 00:47:53,236
- that you saw?
- What?
549
00:47:59,744 --> 00:48:01,303
Guthred.
550
00:48:04,215 --> 00:48:05,547
It is you.
551
00:48:10,154 --> 00:48:11,918
I didn't dare to believe it.
552
00:48:13,858 --> 00:48:15,656
I didn't dare.
553
00:48:16,894 --> 00:48:19,295
It is the truth,
this is Guthred.
554
00:48:19,430 --> 00:48:21,490
Yes, of course. Of course!
555
00:48:22,900 --> 00:48:25,563
Now I see his true likeness.
556
00:48:25,703 --> 00:48:28,730
Huh. Forgive me, lord,
557
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,734
I have the eyes of an old man.
558
00:48:33,344 --> 00:48:36,803
Lord King, I am
the Abbot Eadred.
559
00:48:36,914 --> 00:48:38,906
And it is I, to
whom the blessed...
560
00:48:39,083 --> 00:48:40,881
- Abbot Eadred!
- Saint Cuthbert...
561
00:48:42,787 --> 00:48:44,187
I have been told of your dream.
562
00:48:45,990 --> 00:48:51,452
You... must be a most holy
man. You have truly been blessed.
563
00:48:51,595 --> 00:48:54,258
I have, my lord, it is true.
564
00:48:55,466 --> 00:48:59,130
But let us waste no more time. We
have waited long enough already.
565
00:48:59,470 --> 00:49:03,134
Lord, you shall be crowned king
this very day, this very moment.
566
00:49:03,307 --> 00:49:05,902
The king, whom I promised,
567
00:49:06,010 --> 00:49:08,536
son of the great
warrior Harthacnut,
568
00:49:08,879 --> 00:49:10,370
has arrived.
569
00:49:10,514 --> 00:49:13,211
The king who shall lead
us all, both Dane and Saxon,
570
00:49:13,350 --> 00:49:17,913
against the evil that resides
in Northumbria is here.
571
00:49:24,128 --> 00:49:26,290
With this sword,
572
00:49:26,630 --> 00:49:27,962
the sword of Cumbraland
573
00:49:28,098 --> 00:49:30,761
and with the grace of God,
574
00:49:30,935 --> 00:49:34,929
may you find the strength
to lead and inspire all men.
575
00:49:36,540 --> 00:49:39,237
- Amen.
- Amen.
576
00:49:39,376 --> 00:49:42,107
And now, lord, we shall enter
the church for the royal oath,
577
00:49:42,213 --> 00:49:47,345
which shall be sworn upon the corpse
of the blessed Saint Cuthbert himself.
578
00:49:48,552 --> 00:49:49,850
Cuthbert?
579
00:49:51,021 --> 00:49:53,820
He is here?
580
00:49:53,958 --> 00:49:56,518
In his entirety.
581
00:50:18,215 --> 00:50:22,346
God in heaven, I never
thought I would see the day.
582
00:50:23,153 --> 00:50:25,987
- Is it him, Father?
- It is.
583
00:50:26,557 --> 00:50:30,756
200 years after his
death, he remains whole,
584
00:50:30,895 --> 00:50:33,558
a sign of the depth
of his holiness.
585
00:50:52,583 --> 00:50:54,313
O most holy Cuthbert,
586
00:50:55,219 --> 00:50:58,587
guide us and lead us
and bring us to your glory,
587
00:50:58,689 --> 00:51:01,921
in the name of
Him who died for us.
588
00:51:03,093 --> 00:51:05,289
- Amen.
- Amen.
589
00:51:29,820 --> 00:51:33,814
See how the flesh
is uncorrupted.
590
00:51:33,924 --> 00:51:35,415
A miracle.
591
00:51:45,302 --> 00:51:47,032
You will take his hand, lord,
592
00:51:48,439 --> 00:51:50,067
and swear your oath.
593
00:51:52,543 --> 00:51:56,981
Uhtred, you are the commander
of my household troops.
594
00:51:57,114 --> 00:51:59,083
You will be beside me.
595
00:52:19,670 --> 00:52:21,901
Uhtred, you will kneel.
596
00:52:26,176 --> 00:52:28,077
Take his hand, lord.
597
00:52:35,619 --> 00:52:40,057
God and the blessed Saint
Cuthbert have given us this day a king.
598
00:52:40,157 --> 00:52:46,063
A king who shall raise an army and
that army shall march in His name
599
00:52:46,163 --> 00:52:48,997
and all evil shall be expunged.
600
00:52:50,300 --> 00:52:52,792
This you swear.
601
00:52:53,771 --> 00:52:55,399
I swear.
602
00:52:59,410 --> 00:53:02,346
Vivat Rex Guthred!
603
00:53:04,048 --> 00:53:06,745
Vivat Rex Guthred!
604
00:53:07,184 --> 00:53:09,744
Vivat Rex Guthred!
605
00:53:10,721 --> 00:53:13,156
Vivat Rex Guthred!
606
00:53:14,024 --> 00:53:16,357
Vivat Rex Guthred!
607
00:53:17,227 --> 00:53:19,560
Vivat Rex Guthred!
608
00:53:26,737 --> 00:53:30,640
Guthred, or do I
now call you lord?
609
00:53:30,774 --> 00:53:32,333
You can call me
whatever pleases you.
610
00:53:33,210 --> 00:53:37,238
Very well. Lord Goose-Shit,
I am about to retire.
611
00:53:38,449 --> 00:53:40,179
- Hild will stay with me?
- Yes.
612
00:53:40,284 --> 00:53:44,745
It is so good to see your
crooked little face again.
613
00:53:44,855 --> 00:53:48,223
It is so good to see
that you are still a fool.
614
00:53:49,593 --> 00:53:51,186
- Sleep well.
- Good night.
615
00:53:51,295 --> 00:53:53,958
- Sleep well.
- Sleep well, lady.
616
00:53:54,064 --> 00:53:58,263
Do not get overly drunk, lord, for
tomorrow you teach me sword skills.
617
00:53:58,402 --> 00:54:00,962
And maybe one day
I shall save your life.
618
00:54:06,243 --> 00:54:08,269
Your sister is pretty.
619
00:54:08,412 --> 00:54:11,849
Uhtred, I believe you would
find a goat in a skirt to be pretty.
620
00:54:12,616 --> 00:54:13,811
Goodnight.
621
00:54:16,854 --> 00:54:19,221
The cocksure
long-haired fool over there.
622
00:54:20,290 --> 00:54:22,725
Is he a danger?
623
00:54:23,260 --> 00:54:27,220
- To whom, Abbot?
- To each one of us and to our purpose.
624
00:54:28,332 --> 00:54:32,497
Although he lacks humility,
Uhtred is the reason we are alive.
625
00:54:32,636 --> 00:54:35,538
Ah, he gave you protection out of
the goodness of his heart, did he?
626
00:54:35,672 --> 00:54:39,439
What does he want with
Cumbraland and with our king?
627
00:54:41,278 --> 00:54:44,715
He wants Bebbanburg,
his ancestral home.
628
00:54:45,282 --> 00:54:47,945
And it's in the king's
gift to help him.
629
00:54:48,285 --> 00:54:51,483
Hm. He will need to be watched.
630
00:54:53,023 --> 00:54:54,184
He's a pretender,
631
00:54:54,291 --> 00:54:55,691
I'm sure.
632
00:55:27,357 --> 00:55:28,848
Please...
633
00:55:42,306 --> 00:55:44,298
You have men in
Northumbria still?
634
00:55:45,509 --> 00:55:47,239
Some.
635
00:55:47,344 --> 00:55:49,939
Most have settled, but
they are mine to call upon,
636
00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:53,107
and I have men in East
Anglia with Earl Guthrum.
637
00:55:53,217 --> 00:55:54,947
His name is now Aethelstan.
638
00:55:55,085 --> 00:56:00,922
That may be his Christian name,
lord, but to us, he's Guthrum the Weak.
639
00:56:01,024 --> 00:56:03,289
To seek peace is not a weakness.
640
00:56:03,393 --> 00:56:06,090
The battle of Ethandun
was ours to win.
641
00:56:06,196 --> 00:56:11,533
Only with peace can you build,
only with peace can a people grow.
642
00:56:11,635 --> 00:56:15,299
- Grow fat?
- Grow as one, Brida.
643
00:56:15,405 --> 00:56:18,807
It is true that in
parts of the North,
644
00:56:18,942 --> 00:56:21,639
Saxon, Dane and Briton now
live side by side, do they not?
645
00:56:21,778 --> 00:56:25,715
Oh, they do, but it is
the Danes that rule.
646
00:56:26,750 --> 00:56:31,654
Though warlords must now look
elsewhere for war, to Ireland and Alba.
647
00:56:31,989 --> 00:56:34,288
War is how a man
makes his wealth.
648
00:56:34,391 --> 00:56:35,791
Hmm, I disagree.
649
00:56:35,926 --> 00:56:39,055
War is how a man takes
his wealth, Earl Ragnar.
650
00:56:39,396 --> 00:56:41,456
It is the land and
trade that makes it.
651
00:56:42,833 --> 00:56:46,270
And for the land and trade to
flourish, there must be peace.
652
00:56:48,005 --> 00:56:49,837
To be Viking is a way of life.
653
00:56:49,973 --> 00:56:52,033
To be Viking is a way to die.
654
00:56:53,343 --> 00:56:55,278
And there are many
Danes, I believe,
655
00:56:55,412 --> 00:56:57,313
who want more
from life than death.
656
00:56:57,414 --> 00:56:58,541
Lord,
657
00:56:58,649 --> 00:57:03,986
you are never more alive than
when you sail a ship onto a new shore.
658
00:57:04,087 --> 00:57:06,056
Oh, on that we are agreed.
659
00:57:09,693 --> 00:57:10,991
Father!
660
00:57:11,995 --> 00:57:13,657
Father.
661
00:57:13,830 --> 00:57:15,958
I have news of
the slave, Guthred.
662
00:57:16,433 --> 00:57:19,232
He has been made a
king, of Cumbraland.
663
00:57:20,671 --> 00:57:22,003
Fiske?
664
00:57:22,105 --> 00:57:24,631
It is true, lord, we
heard it from traders.
665
00:57:28,812 --> 00:57:32,214
- Where are these traders?
- We heard the same story three times,
666
00:57:32,449 --> 00:57:34,111
- five times...
- We heard it three times.
667
00:57:34,251 --> 00:57:36,846
This Guthred is now a king.
668
00:57:36,987 --> 00:57:39,422
- What of the dead horseman?
- Lord...
669
00:57:39,690 --> 00:57:43,320
King Guthred is
building up an army
670
00:57:44,461 --> 00:57:48,125
made up of both
Danes and Saxons.
671
00:57:48,265 --> 00:57:51,827
And the commander
of this army is just that.
672
00:57:51,935 --> 00:57:54,131
Both Dane and Saxon.
673
00:57:55,038 --> 00:57:57,439
His name is Uhtred.
674
00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:05,506
- Are you certain of this?
- Yes.
675
00:58:08,485 --> 00:58:09,714
Tekil.
676
00:58:11,221 --> 00:58:12,746
Lord?
677
00:58:13,123 --> 00:58:15,683
If the king of Cumbraland
is building an army,
678
00:58:15,826 --> 00:58:17,818
you will join him.
679
00:58:19,863 --> 00:58:22,492
If you get the chance,
you can kill the king.
680
00:58:23,700 --> 00:58:27,398
But you will bring his
commander back here, to me.
681
00:58:27,504 --> 00:58:29,439
- Take his eye.
- Yes.
682
00:58:30,774 --> 00:58:36,338
You can take his eye, but I want
him here and I want him alive.
683
00:58:37,381 --> 00:58:39,543
I will take him piece by piece.
684
00:58:40,517 --> 00:58:42,383
I will make him suffer.
