00:00You
00:08Boy, I just don't return
00:14I'm not warning you again
00:18Chips there
00:26Jades, they're devil's turds
00:29Are they traders?
00:31No, they come as vikings
00:33We go
00:36Go, go
00:50Go, go
00:52Go
01:01Go
01:03Go
01:05Go
01:07Go
01:07Go
01:22Where's my son?
01:24Uhtred
01:25I think half a dozen men ride to the river, there are pagans there, you watch them, see how many
01:29there are
01:30Of course, father
01:30Do nothing more, you understand?
01:32Yes, father
01:33Osbert, what is it?
01:34Ships, I saw them first from the beach
01:35What ships?
01:37Dades, they're heading for the river
01:40Goodness sakes, preserve us, they have no soul
01:42We must pray
01:43We must act, Uhtred
01:45Do not fight them, not a single one
01:47Be back by night
01:48Yes, father
01:49They are sent by God to punish us
01:50For our sins
01:51Our sins be damned, they're here to support the viking army at Ethwitch
01:54We must ask the priest to pray for our deliverance
01:56Elfridge
01:56Lord
01:58Get them inside
01:58We take in as many women and elders as we can
02:01The rest for higher ground and out of sight
02:02Send word to rouse the country
02:04I want every man inside this fortress
02:05And every man must be prepared to die
02:39Some men need to lodge
02:41To rest the battle
02:45God
02:47Tom you
02:48You
02:51Land, huh? Fresh. Sweetwater. Yes. What else do you see? I see a clear river, fish as big as a
03:01mantelag. I see a forest alive with meat. But more than that, I see a place to grow fat and
03:06old.
03:10Horses? Yeah. I see spies chitting themselves.
03:24We'll meet sword with sword. You're pagan. We have a greater god on our side.
03:30Shriatan, I think we should teach this boy a lesson. Taking her in. At speed.
03:35Take off the speed.
03:53Why do I leave the villages unprotected and bring the men inside? Is that your question? A village can be
04:00rebuilt.
04:00But a warrior can die only once. The Danes may be heading south to Efwitch, but they will kill whoever
04:06they can on the way.
04:09Now, go find the priest.
04:11Yes, Father.
04:20Come in, Albert. Don't skulk in the shadows.
04:23Yeah. I want to know if you're ready.
04:26Almost. Do you know what I'm tasked with?
04:29Um, a letter?
04:30A response to a letter. This letter from King Aelah.
04:35Asking your father for his support, his army, to help recapture the city of Efwitch.
04:40This is why it's important for you to be able to read and write.
04:43Father can't read and write.
04:44Yeah, but for your father it's too late.
04:47King Aelah could have sent a man on horseback.
04:49Yeah, but who's to say that the man on horseback speaks the truth or has remembered the true message?
04:54What these letters will represent is history, facts.
04:58Your father is informing King Aelah and King Osmond you will be alongside their armies at Efwitch.
05:04Now, the mark of Beddenberg will guarantee the truth of it.
05:08Why do we fight for Efwitch?
05:09Well, we fight for Efwitch because we do not wish to see England, piece by piece, become Daneland.
05:16I heard it said that we were pagans once, that Woden and Odin are the same.
05:21Well, we saw the error of our ways and we looked to Rome.
05:24I heard the pagans had fierce gods of war.
05:26Well, we are right and they are mistaken.
05:29Osbert, we are blessed.
05:31I should make you swear on St. Cuthbert's Cone, never to mention the likes of Woden again.
05:35But what if I had a hound called Woden?
05:38What if I did?
05:39Well, you have not.
05:40What if you had a pig called Thor?
05:41Come, let's go see your father.
05:43Pig called Thor.
05:44Is it really St. Cuthbert's Cone?
05:46Of course, it's St. Cuthbert's Cone and his holy hair lies in the teeth of that cone.
05:50What was your father last?
05:52He was humping the servant girl.
05:54That's a lie, aren't they?
05:55No.
05:56Are you never going to tire of teasing?
05:57Nope.
05:59Horseman approaching!
06:17He rides Utrecht's horse.
06:25Osbert.
06:38Osbert.
06:43No!
06:44No!
06:45No!
06:45No!
06:46No!
06:58Bury what's left of him.
07:08Osbert, come on.
07:12Remind me of the last words I spoke to him.
07:14Children to watch. Do not fight. We have no idea of the circus.
07:17Do not fight means do not fight.
07:18He was young.
07:19There was no fight to be had until Efwitch.
07:21You wanted to see Osbert, my lord?
07:24You!
07:25You are now called Uhtred. Uhtred, son of Uhtred.
07:28Do you have your stone, the amber?
07:29Yes, Father.
07:30The priest will show you your history and parchments.
07:32Make him understand who he is.
07:33Lord, I should like to baptize him again.
07:36Well, if you're out of heaven's gate as Uhtred,
07:38they might wonder what's happened to Osbert.
07:41Do what you must. Do as I ask.
07:43Lord.
07:45Who are the kings here at once, boy?
07:48Kings of all the lands between the rivers Tweed and Ty.
07:50We should be kings again.
07:52Yes, we should.
07:53But it does not matter what they call us so long as they obey.
07:56Our ancestors took this land.
07:58And it has been strengthened with our blood and bone.
08:01And now you are the new heir of Babenburg.
08:03You hear me?
08:04And you will die for it if needed.
08:06Yes, Father.
08:07And I'll give you the head of the man who killed Uhtred.
08:09No, you are Uhtred!
08:11Have you not been listening to me?
08:13Now tell me what it is you will do.
08:14You are just a pup.
08:16You will give me nothing.
08:17You will watch and you will learn.
08:23Put him in the water, for his mother's tongue gives me grief.
08:25She's not my mother.
08:29Will you take him with you to battle, to watch and learn?
08:31He's old enough.
08:32I need you to choose 30 men for a main here at Babenburg.
08:35Protect the boy.
08:36He is the heir.
08:3930 will hold and is few enough to feed.
08:40He'll do this for me.
08:41I'd rather be with you at Eferwich, but not do as you ask.
08:47Come on, quickly.
08:49Up there, go on.
08:51Hurry, please.
09:03Heavenly Father, receive your servant, Uhtred, into the holy canon of saints,
09:11and into the ranks of the most bright angels.
09:15Let your holy waters cleanse him and make him worthy of your blessing.
09:21Make him your instrument and your rod.
09:27Let him realize the significance of the written word,
09:31so that he may learn of your glory and, in turn, may spread your word.
09:37Let him grow in wisdom and in respect, so he may lead in a godly manner.
09:45Okay.
09:45He's cleansed.
09:47Amen.
09:49Uhtred, son of Uhtred of Babenburg, welcome to the Christian world.
09:54Behold your people and your land.
09:56He came?
09:57Come, on in silence.
09:58There!
10:02It won't.
10:14Yes, sir.
10:17Let him come.
10:19But...

14:04So do we fight
14:09Story
14:12The signs are good
14:13Only this morning I saw a Raymond fly towards the Saxon
14:16Camp
14:16And he was asking me to follow
14:18I'm sure of it
14:25Then we fight
14:51What kind of hell is this?
14:52It's a pagan's hell
14:54We outnumber them
14:55But there are more
14:57There must be
14:58Nothing changes
14:59We attack with half our number
15:00The second half to follow
15:02Once we have the measure of them
15:03They have conceded to higher ground

18:42Kill them all!
18:57Lift up your sword and spare these men of England who fight in your name.
19:04Make the heathens' hearts crumble and wither.
19:08Bestow your power upon these men of England,
19:11so they can glorify your name with the blood of the devils.
19:14Have mercy now, Lord.
19:17Do not forsake us. Do not forsake England.
19:29Follow me! Follow me!
19:33Take him!
19:39Close the shield wall! Close the wall and take him!
19:44Close the shield!
19:49Come on!
19:53Come on!
20:02He's like a wasp!
20:11The wasp has lost its sting.
20:13Yeah?

20:54He's trying!
20:54He's trying!

21:26You're leaving him with me.

21:53I've never seen a man get the better of you yet.
22:12I've never seen a man get the better of you.
22:16I've never seen a man get the better of you yet.

25:49Disagree?
25:50No.
25:52But we did kill his father.
25:54And if he's an alderman, we could sell him for ransom.
25:57Perhaps.
26:20And if he doesn't, we could sell him for ransom.
26:24Oh, my God.
26:27Oh, my God.
26:30Oh, my God.
26:41Oh, my God.
26:58Rueda, be careful not to spill the water.
27:00You'll turn the floor to mud.
27:03Uhtred, wood needs to be chopped.
27:05Rueda, you can do the goats.
27:08Will there be time for Uhtred to play?
27:10Only when work is done.
27:15I don't like our daughter having to play with the slaves.
27:18They're only children.
27:19They have a place.
27:21Grumpy.
27:27My horse?
27:29Hey, Ragnar Agneson.
27:32Hey, Uhtred of wherever.
27:34How about you teach me how to use a sword?
27:36We don't teach slaves how to fight.
27:38That tongue of yours will be a deaf boy.
27:41Now get back to work.
27:45What does the play involve?
27:47We built a hole in the gorge.
27:49I'm the mistress and Uhtred is the warrior.
27:52Not a servant.
27:53It is a game.
27:58A wolf.
27:59Uhtred.
28:00That's it, a wolf.
28:01Wolf, watch out.
28:03I saw it.
28:04It's sharp teeth and yellow eyes.
28:06Don't let the wolves get to me, Uhtred.
28:07Use the fire to keep them away.
28:09I see them.
28:10They're as big as upper and smell worse.
28:16Did you see that?
28:22Uhtred!
28:23Stay up there.
28:26Nick!
28:28Uhtred, what is happening?
28:29Stay up there, Tora.
28:30It's Ben.
28:31He won't hurt you.
28:32But he'll kill us.
28:35He'll kill us!
28:36Look!
28:43No.
28:44That was a real sword.
28:45I saw it.
28:48Tora!
29:11Sif, you've been fighting again?
29:15Yes.
29:17With Ben?
29:19Garton's son?
29:20Yes.
29:22Uhtred, he's much bigger than you.
29:23He's a turd.
29:24Why do you say that?
29:25Who started it?
29:28Who began the fight?
29:29I began the fight.
29:31For no other reason than that he's a turd.
29:34Things I've murdered for less.
29:35Uhtred, that's enough.
29:38You want to be soul, boy?
29:39I wish to eat.
29:40Speak up.
29:41I wish to eat.
29:42You want to eat?
29:46You want to eat?
29:48You know what?
29:49I say you stop.
29:51Fighting is expected.
29:53Disobedience is not.
29:54Sven began the fight.
29:58Garton!
30:00Garton!
30:08Let me first say, he's a good boy.
30:10He brought a sword unto my land.
30:12I will have words with him.
30:13In time, he'll serve on his ship.
30:14He has offended me.
30:15He will honor you, and he meant no harm, Lord.
30:17He meant no harm?
30:18He looked at my daughter's nakedness, and he was punished.
30:22Your Saxon slave caught him.
30:23Shall I make a square of branches?
30:24Are you going to fight me for your son, or fetch him?
30:33Sven?
30:34Come out of here.
30:38Tell me what you have to say.
30:40I'm sorry.
30:40I can't hear you.
30:41I'm sorry, Lord, for what I did.
30:47You laid hands on my daughter.
30:50You stripped her naked.
30:52Half naked, Lord.
30:53Is that an H, Lord?
30:56Is this true?
30:58Half naked?
30:59Yes, Lord.
31:05Then I shall only take his one eye.
31:07No, Lord, please!
31:10Garton!
31:10You are banished from my land.
31:33I have something for you.
31:37What is it?
31:38An amulet.
31:40False hammer.
31:42Ah, but, uh...
31:43But what?
31:44You're a Christian.
31:47Take it.
31:51I can't...
31:52Don't you want it?
31:53I do want it.
31:55Take it.
31:55I'm trying.
31:56Take it.
31:56I don't think he wants it.
31:58I do want it.
31:59No, I don't think so.
32:08Tell me about Denmark.
32:12Your home.
32:15What can I say about Denmark?
32:17It's wet.
32:19And harsh.
32:22The ground is so flat and sandy, you can't grow a fart.
32:26Which is why we're here in England.
32:29To grow.
32:30And why young Ragnar will soon be going for Ireland.
32:34You leave to fight?
32:36To make my wealth, if you want land or silver, you have to take it.
32:46You make me proud today, Oshred.
32:52You make me proud.
33:24I don't know you.
33:25You don't have the appearance of a messenger.
33:28Another's payment's not yet due.
33:30No, Lord.
33:31I was a ship's master.
33:33Ah, well, I have no ships.
33:35I need no ships, Master.
33:40I have news that you will want to hear.
33:44What?
33:45I would want something in return, Lord.
33:47Huh.
33:48Not now, not coin.
33:50But perhaps we can continue to help each other.
33:54Perhaps.
33:55Two days south of here,
33:57is O'Ragnar, the man I used to serve,
34:00until he banished me.
34:03He has a slave.
34:05Treats him well.
34:08This is a slave you're entitled to.
34:10Buy back, if you wish to.
34:13Buy back?
34:14It's your nephew, Oshred Lord.
34:17He lives.
34:33What if I'm against being ransomed?
34:36Your family has discovered that you're still alive.
34:41And they wish for you to be returned.
34:44But they must pay.
34:46Pay your eggs.
34:47Abba takes more than half.
34:49It's normal.
34:55But I have no family.
35:00Keep them over there.
35:01Take the door.
35:07Scallion.
35:08Here.
35:11Oshred.
35:13They treating you well?
35:14I am fed, yes.
35:16Good, good.
35:17That's all we ask.
35:19What is that around your neck?
35:21Some symbol?
35:22Oh, this.
35:22They make me wear it.
35:24May I see it?
35:31Look, I will speak plainly.
35:34Your uncle will kill you.
35:36Right?
35:36You cannot go back to Bebbanburg.
35:38You must escape.
35:40He wants to be the alderman.
35:42He wants to be the king, in fact.
35:43Like the pathetic Egbert over there.
35:45A puppet king for his Danish masters.
35:47You should go to Wessex.
35:49King Gathred, real King Gathred and his brother,
35:50the Prince Alfred.
35:51A good man, good Christian man.
35:54That's enough whispering in his ear, priest.
35:57Oops.
35:58One more word.
35:59I'll have you both back for a press.
36:00I'll meet you there.
36:02That will not be necessary.
36:05What are you saying?
36:07He asked if you were treating me well.
36:27How much?
36:28Three hundred.
36:29That is a ridiculous amount.
36:31How can a boy be worth three hundred pieces of silver?
36:33Because I say so.
36:35Because he is a lord and an alderman.
36:38He is a boy.
36:39I am the alderman of Bebbanburg.
36:41I carry the seal and the banner.
36:43That seal is my father's, which is now mine.
36:45You be silent.
36:47You are for say, nothing more.
36:48For ransom, lord.
36:50I saw what I said.
36:51My lords, I have given up land.
36:53Horses.
36:54I've offered a generous supply of food as well as my sword.
36:57All I ask in return is a fair price for my only nephew.
37:00What would you say is a fair price?
37:02I will offer a hundred pieces of silver.
37:04Two hundred.
37:05My allegiance and one hundred pieces is surely a fair price.
37:10It is not.
37:13I will give one hundred and twenty pieces of silver for the boy.
37:17Not enough.
37:21Very well.
37:23Two hundred pieces.
37:24I agree to your terms.
37:36The boy is sold to a runner.
37:38What?
37:39Ransomed, lord.
37:40That is what I said.
37:41The matter is closed.
37:43My lords, I have come a long way.
37:44I have offered my allegiance.
37:46Which is why you are now to breathe.
37:50If you have an argument, it is with me now.
38:01If business is done, we have ale to drink.
38:04And King Helbert needs to sit.
38:15Am I not for ransom anymore?
38:17You heard, Arthur.
38:19I bought you.
38:21Thought I might sacrifice you to Odin.
38:25You bought me for how much?
38:27Too much.
38:28How much is too much?
38:30My source weighed in silver.
38:32I agreed I may have been robbed, but we like you, boy.
38:36We're going to keep you.
38:38Does this mean I'm a dame?
38:40It means you're Uhtred Ragnarsson.
38:43You're a son to me now.
38:56Ol' wuhtred Ragnarsson.
39:04O'er?
39:14It's beautiful. It really is. I can't believe I'm losing you already.
39:22I will be leaving across the field.
39:24And if he doesn't treat you well, you just come marching right back across that field.
39:40Oh, look at this place.
39:44Uhtred, do you like my wedding necklace?
39:48I do. Very pretty.
39:50He doesn't know anything about necklaces.
39:54Might as well ask me.
39:56Uhtred, with me, you can help me slaughter the goats.
39:58I've only just washed.
40:00The goats will be pleased.
40:07Later, you can sweep the floor.
40:12We go back.
40:16This is an excuse to talk, that's all.
40:19With Tura to be married, maybe it's time you got together with Brita.
40:23There are men, good men, asking about her.
40:26So you have to decide what you are to her.
40:28What you are to each other.
40:30Brita has her own mind.
40:31She has, but I see the way she looks at you.
40:35She's watching the charcoal tonight, in the woods,
40:39to take my horse and join her.
40:41The earth will be warm.
40:45Why not?
40:48I just thought in order to be a real Dane, I had to marry Dane.
40:54Come on.
40:57I love you like I love young Ragnar.
41:04Come on.
41:07Come on.
41:10Come on.
41:14Come on.
41:29What are you doing here?
42:10What are you doing here?
42:32What are you doing here?
42:46What are you doing here?
43:28What are you doing here?
43:29What are you doing here?

44:46What are you doing here?
44:50What are you doing here?
45:16What are you doing here?
45:20What are you doing here?
45:45What are you doing here?
45:46What are you doing here?
45:47Yes, I'll leave you there.
46:11What are you doing here?
46:17What are you doing here?
46:23What are you doing here?
46:44What are you doing here?
46:49What are you doing here?
46:51What are you doing here?
46:56What are you doing here?
47:19What are you doing here?
47:21What are you doing here?
47:24What are you doing here?
47:52What are you doing here?
47:55What are you doing here?

48:21What are you doing here?
48:39What are you doing here?
48:45What are you doing here?
48:47What are you doing here?
48:50What are you doing here?
49:21Come on.
49:48You know who I am?
49:50It's me you're looking for.
49:52It's me you're looking for.
49:54You remember me?
49:55You remember me?
50:16There's no more.
50:18We're going.
50:19Come on.
50:20Bring the hoses.
50:21Come on.
50:53Come on.
51:21Come on.
51:24By right it belongs to young Raga.
51:27Yes.
51:29But we spend what we need to spend.
51:30We stay alive.
51:31Tell the story and then what?
51:36We find a new lord to serve.
51:43I will not stand by and have everything that's mine taken from me.
51:49I'm going back.
51:50Where?
51:54It's at the beginning.
52:17It's at the beginning.
52:20I'm going back.
52:26Here we go.
52:29Here we go.
52:40I'll see you in the next one.
52:41I'll see you in the next one.
52:43Here we go.
52:54Is it Scallion?
52:55No, my lord. He looks like a dade.
52:57Could be one of Kjartan's men.
53:20I moot rid of Bebenberg, and I shall take what is mine.
53:25Bebenberg is mine!
53:28Oh, shit!
