'I am Uhtred, son of Uhtred. When I was a child, my sister, Thyra, was attacked by Sven,

0:00:060:00:09

'and he looked at her nakedness. Our father exacted his revenge.'

0:00:090:00:13

Then I shall only take his one eye.

0:00:130:00:15

Argh! Ah! Ah!

0:00:150:00:18

Kjartan, you are banished!

0:00:180:00:20

'So years later, Kjartan burned down our home and killed our parents.

0:00:200:00:25

'I thought Thyra dead.'

0:00:280:00:29

I will not stand by

0:00:290:00:31

and have everything that's mine taken from me.

0:00:310:00:33

'But she lives.

0:00:330:00:35

'Held in chains, just as I was held in chains.

0:00:350:00:38

'She will not die a slave.

0:00:400:00:42

'She will not share Halig's fate.

0:00:420:00:44

'Under orders of King Alfred, my brother, Ragnar, found and freed me.

0:00:450:00:50

'Seeking revenge for my friend, for my own captivity

0:00:500:00:55

'and Gisela being taken from me,

0:00:550:00:57

'I killed the Abbot Eadred, a man of God.

0:00:570:01:00

'My price was to renew my oath of allegiance to Alfred of Wessex.

0:01:000:01:05

'Destiny is all.'

0:01:080:01:09

-Uhtred?

-Mm?

0:02:500:02:52

When you go to Eoferwic...

0:02:520:02:54

..will you kill my brother?

0:02:560:02:57

Are you asking if I will, or are you telling me to do it?

0:03:010:03:04

The first one.

0:03:060:03:07

I have sworn to Alfred that Guthred will not be harmed.

0:03:100:03:13

I want to go with you.

0:03:230:03:24

-No.

-You might return to find me

0:03:260:03:28

claimed by another, like vacant land.

0:03:280:03:30

Gisela, no.

0:03:300:03:32

Alfred could marry me off to some ealdorman

0:03:320:03:34

and you would not be here to stop it!

0:03:340:03:35

HE LAUGHS

0:03:350:03:37

What is funny?

0:03:370:03:38

It would not be the first time a king has tried.

0:03:410:03:44

You're not coming with me.

0:03:460:03:48

It would be too dangerous for you.

0:03:480:03:49

It is for you, too.

0:03:490:03:51

I could not...

0:03:570:03:59

..I could not bear it to have you taken from me again.

0:04:020:04:04

What's this? Are you leaving without me?

0:04:150:04:17

Brida has gone already.

0:04:170:04:19

She's gathering my men...

0:04:190:04:21

..whatever is left of them.

0:04:220:04:23

You will meet them where?

0:04:230:04:26

Loidis.

0:04:260:04:27

I'd ask you to come with me,

0:04:280:04:30

but I hear you've been making more of your oaths.

0:04:300:04:33

I will be with you.

0:04:350:04:36

-Our plan doesn't change.

-You belong to Alfred.

0:04:360:04:40

Our plan doesn't change.

0:04:400:04:42

Alfred sends me to kill Erik and Sigefrid.

0:04:430:04:46

If I succeed, then Guthred will be in my debt

0:04:460:04:49

and I will demand the use of his men.

0:04:490:04:51

I have men

0:04:520:04:54

and we have our own war, we do not need Guthred's.

0:04:540:04:57

How many men? Enough to take Dunholm?

0:04:570:04:59

Guthred made you a slave!

0:04:590:05:01

And by swearing to Alfred, you remain a slave!

0:05:010:05:05

Why?

0:05:080:05:09

I have my reasons.

0:05:110:05:12

I would like to hear those reasons.

0:05:140:05:16

I did not forget what Guthred did to me.

0:05:180:05:21

But if it means we have a greater chance of killing Kjartan,

0:05:220:05:25

if it means we find our sister, then I will do what Alfred asks.

0:05:250:05:28

Kjartan falls...by MY sword.

0:05:340:05:38

He will, brother.

0:05:400:05:42

He will.

0:05:420:05:43

Lord?

0:05:580:05:59

You asked for me?

0:05:590:06:01

I did.

0:06:010:06:02

The king... should be at the centre...

0:06:030:06:07

..surrounded by his enemies.

0:06:080:06:10

I am sending Uhtred to Eoferwic to aid Guthred against the brothers

0:06:130:06:16

who would take the city for themselves.

0:06:160:06:18

I want you to go with him.

0:06:180:06:19

Steapa shall accompany you. Remain at his side.

0:06:190:06:23

Lord, forgive me, but I do not see what need Uhtred would have of me.

0:06:250:06:28

It is not Uhtred's need that concerns me, it is mine.

0:06:280:06:32

Guthred's misjudgments have divided Northumbria.

0:06:330:06:36

I sent Uhtred to reassert Guthred's authority.

0:06:360:06:38

I am sending you to remind King Guthred

0:06:380:06:41

of his debt and obligations to Wessex.

0:06:410:06:44

Surely a letter would suit the purpose?

0:06:440:06:47

A letter is constant,

0:06:470:06:49

whereas I shall merely come and go.

0:06:490:06:52

Think of this as a reward, Aethelwold.

0:06:520:06:54

You have proven yourself, both in battle and within my Witan.

0:06:550:06:58

You have also sought greater responsibilities.

0:06:580:07:00

In Wessex, yes. Responsibilities in Mercia, perhaps, but Northumbria?!

0:07:000:07:04

Lord, they are almost Scots.

0:07:060:07:07

Should I turn my hair red?

0:07:090:07:12

You will remind Uhtred of his oaths,

0:07:120:07:14

but, above all, you will reassure our northern king

0:07:140:07:18

that in spite of what has passed,

0:07:180:07:19

my commitment to his prosperity has not waned.

0:07:190:07:22

Eoferwic must remain Christian.

0:07:230:07:26

You do me a great honour.

0:07:280:07:29

You shall be my eyes, ears and voice, Aethelwold.

0:07:290:07:32

Hm. A bold response.

0:07:340:07:36

Yes, Father, I thought so.

0:07:360:07:38

Take this.

0:07:500:07:52

It is the symbol of my kingship.

0:07:520:07:54

Bear it with authority.

0:07:540:07:56

Make yourself ready.

0:07:570:07:59

Consider how you spend this time.

0:08:010:08:03

Tomorrow, you're my errands man.

0:08:050:08:07

-Father Beocca?

-Uhtred! Thank you.

0:08:160:08:18

-Come to make your peace with God?

-Come to find you.

0:08:190:08:22

You weren't in your room, nor the brothel.

0:08:220:08:25

Well, I...I've been very busy.

0:08:250:08:26

These are for Guthred?

0:08:280:08:29

Yes. Fortunes of kings.

0:08:290:08:32

Their failures are rewarded with gifts.

0:08:320:08:35

Father?

0:08:360:08:37

-Is something wrong?

-I need you to marry me to Gisela.

0:08:380:08:42

-What?!

-I want us to make our pledges before I ride for Eoferwic.

0:08:420:08:45

Mildrith has joined the order, I am free to marry.

0:08:470:08:50

You have Alfred's blessing?

0:08:500:08:52

It's not Alfred I wish to marry!

0:08:520:08:54

Beocca, this cannot wait.

0:08:570:08:59

-You love her?

-I do.

0:09:000:09:02

I feel you are too fond of love.

0:09:050:09:08

Nevertheless, bring her here, but quietly.

0:09:080:09:12

We need to be quick and discreet.

0:09:120:09:14

Quick and discreet!

0:09:140:09:16

We're off to the great north, you and I.

0:09:210:09:23

I'm to be Alfred's errand boy. He wants me away from Winchester...

0:09:230:09:25

-Aethelwold, I'm not listening.

-He wants me dead, even!

0:09:250:09:29

Now that is the plan, I know it!

0:09:290:09:31

One...may be overpowered.

0:09:410:09:44

Two can defend themselves.

0:09:460:09:49

A cord of three is not so quickly broken

0:09:500:09:55

Now that you are bound together,

0:09:550:09:57

Uhtred and Gisela...

0:09:570:09:59

..I can declare you man and wife.

0:10:010:10:03

(Now I will never be taken from you.)

0:10:130:10:16

Ragnar rides with them, Lord?

0:10:500:10:52

A Dane?

0:10:520:10:54

You have doubts, Odda?

0:10:570:10:58

Then we shall air them.

0:11:020:11:03

Lord, should he survive, I fear Uhtred will not return.

0:11:200:11:24

You believe he will break his oath?

0:11:240:11:26

I believe Bebbanburg will hold a greater pull than Wessex.

0:11:260:11:30

Should he rid Northumbria of these Northmen,

0:11:300:11:32

he will look towards Kjartan, his blood feud.

0:11:320:11:36

Yes, but that is no bad thing.

0:11:360:11:37

But, Lord, should he defeat Kjartan,

0:11:370:11:39

then who holds the power in Northumbria?

0:11:390:11:42

Uhtred and Ragnar? Pagans.

0:11:420:11:44

Well, there is that risk,

0:11:440:11:46

but firstly, Uhtred is a warrior. A Viking, even.

0:11:460:11:50

-He will forever be restless.

-Perhaps.

0:11:500:11:52

And secondly, should he turn his attention to Bebbanburg,

0:11:520:11:54

and, indeed, to Northumbria as a whole,

0:11:540:11:56

then Steapa is under instruction to kill him.

0:11:560:12:00

When will we have sight of Eoferwic?

0:12:100:12:12

I have never ridden for so long nor so far.

0:12:120:12:16

Have you a sore arse, lord?

0:12:160:12:18

I have a sore everything.

0:12:180:12:20

I need a woman to rub and bathe me.

0:12:220:12:23

HE CHUCKLES

0:12:230:12:25

We will be stopping soon enough.

0:12:250:12:27

At Eoferwic?

0:12:270:12:28

We ride first for Loidis.

0:12:300:12:31

What awaits us at Loidis?

0:12:310:12:33

We shall see.

0:12:360:12:38

Need I remind you, first and foremost,

0:12:380:12:41

our purpose here is the king's business.

0:12:410:12:44

Nothing has changed but our path, Beocca.

0:12:440:12:47

We shall see.

0:12:470:12:49

Brida!

0:13:160:13:18

You brought friends?

0:13:190:13:22

They serve Alfred.

0:13:220:13:23

Do we have men?

0:13:250:13:27

Some.

0:13:270:13:29

-Hm?

-This way.

0:13:290:13:30

Well, that was a warm greeting(!)

0:13:330:13:35

Uhtred.

0:13:370:13:39

Uhtred, you were sent north to aid Guthred, not to go chasing revenge.

0:13:390:13:42

Perhaps I plan to do both, Father.

0:13:420:13:44

Well, I think I know what you plan.

0:13:440:13:46

Uhtred, revenge will not bring you peace, only death.

0:13:460:13:49

Father Beocca, you will have me kill for Alfred but not for myself.

0:13:490:13:52

Why is that?

0:13:520:13:54

And what business does Alfred have with Northumbria?

0:13:570:14:01

God's business!

0:14:010:14:02

ROWDY BANTER

0:14:040:14:05

RAUCOUS LAUGHTER

0:14:080:14:09

CHEERING

0:14:090:14:11

I didn't think so many would come.

0:14:150:14:17

Ragnar?

0:14:220:14:24

-Rollo.

-What makes you think we're here for you?

0:14:300:14:32

RAUCOUS LAUGHTER

0:14:380:14:39

Guthred is seen as weak and friendless.

0:14:490:14:52

These men won't fight the brothers for a turd.

0:14:520:14:55

We need the turd's army to take Dunholm.

0:14:550:14:58

So, why not kill the Northmen, then kill the turd,

0:14:580:15:01

take Eoferwic and its army for yourself?

0:15:010:15:04

-The woman's got a point.

-No, she does not have a point.

0:15:040:15:07

Those are the words of a traitor!

0:15:070:15:09

I don't want Eoferwic. All I want is Kjartan's heart

0:15:090:15:12

on the end of my sword, and to see my sister.

0:15:120:15:15

We will need Guthred's army.

0:15:150:15:17

I promised these men silver

0:15:180:15:21

and the glory of avenging your father.

0:15:210:15:24

Don't dishonour them by getting them killed for Guthred, the turd.

0:15:240:15:28

Oh, Ragnar, your woman's got the balls of a bear.

0:15:320:15:37

I like her.

0:15:370:15:38

-She's right.

-What do you mean, she's right?

0:15:380:15:40

Beocca, she's right! These men are here for Ragnar,

0:15:400:15:43

we can't ask them to die for the like of Guthred.

0:15:430:15:45

Isn't it what Danes do, fight?

0:15:450:15:47

-We cannot face the brothers alone.

-Why not?

0:15:490:15:52

Finan, there is bravery and then there is stupidity.

0:15:520:15:55

The Northmen have a camp, do they not?

0:15:550:15:58

Not a fortress, but an open camp.

0:15:580:16:01

If it is Sigefrid and Erik we must kill, then let us just do that.

0:16:010:16:04

We kill them while they're sleeping.

0:16:050:16:08

Shadow-walkers.

0:16:090:16:10

Open the gates!

0:16:220:16:24

They are here...in Northumbria.

0:16:390:16:41

-Uhtred and Ragnar.

-How many men?

0:16:410:16:44

They had barely 50 at Loidis.

0:16:460:16:48

They'll find others.

0:16:480:16:50

They'll go to their poxy King Guthred.

0:16:500:16:52

I want every man aware and ready.

0:16:540:16:56

No drunkenness till it's done, no matter how long.

0:16:560:17:00

Do you believe they will attack?

0:17:000:17:02

Place rocks, wood and fire on the ramparts.

0:17:030:17:06

We should hunt them down now,

0:17:080:17:09

before they can turn their 50 men into 500 men.

0:17:090:17:12

50 men can win a battle in the open,

0:17:130:17:17

but no army of any size can breach this fortress.

0:17:170:17:20

If Uhtred and Ragnar's wish is to kill me...

0:17:220:17:24

..they can die trying at my gates.

0:17:260:17:28

Was I not heard? Go!

0:17:330:17:35

Father, what can I do?

0:17:370:17:39

Go to your wild whore.

0:17:410:17:42

Tell her she need not feed her hounds.

0:17:440:17:46

DOGS GROWL

0:17:590:18:00

Thyra?

0:18:120:18:14

I told you to stay out.

0:18:210:18:23

Your brother Ragnar is here... in Northumbria.

0:18:230:18:25

He will attack.

0:18:290:18:31

My father demands that you let the hounds go hungry.

0:18:350:18:37

But if you don't...

0:18:400:18:41

if you do not want that, I-I can tell Father that...

0:18:410:18:44

I have no brother.

0:18:440:18:46

DOG BARKS

0:18:460:18:48

I have no brother!

0:18:490:18:51

Get out!

0:18:530:18:55

GET OUT!

0:18:550:18:57

FEROCIOUS BARKING

0:18:570:18:59

RAIN POURS

0:19:050:19:07

THUNDER CRASHES

0:19:130:19:16

I see three on watch.

0:19:160:19:18

The rest will be huddled inside their furs.

0:19:190:19:22

There could be more behind the tents, sitting low.

0:19:220:19:25

I don't have a good feeling about this.

0:19:250:19:28

Which tents are full and which are empty?

0:19:290:19:32

And in which tent is Sigefrid and which is Erik?

0:19:330:19:36

We are blind.

0:19:360:19:38

Tafl.

0:19:380:19:39

The game, tafl.

0:19:430:19:44

The king is positioned at the centre of the pieces.

0:19:470:19:50

I would say that tent there is the king.

0:19:500:19:54

From any other mouth, it'd make perfect sense.

0:19:590:20:02

It is perfect sense.

0:20:020:20:04

-I will go in alone.

-I think you should.

0:20:060:20:08

No, we go in as agreed, together.

0:20:080:20:10

-We cannot risk the both of us being killed.

-Yes, we can.

0:20:100:20:14

This is for Alfred, you must save your sword for Kjartan.

0:20:140:20:17

If it is for Alfred...

0:20:170:20:19

..I will go with you.

0:20:200:20:22

And me!

0:20:220:20:23

It was my bastard plan.

0:20:230:20:25

And I shall wish you all the best of luck.

0:20:270:20:30

-If you get caught...?

-Do nothing.

0:20:300:20:33

Ragnar, think only of our blood feud and of Thyra.

0:20:350:20:38

I hope you're light on your feet, big man.

0:20:410:20:44

MUFFLED GRUNTS

0:20:540:20:56

HE GROANS

0:21:040:21:06

THUNDER CRASHES

0:21:160:21:18

Argh!

0:21:320:21:34

You want to kill me, Uhtred Ragnarson?

0:22:090:22:11

That was the plan.

0:22:110:22:13

You don't like me? I can be a funny man.

0:22:130:22:15

UHTRED GROANS

0:22:180:22:19

BOTH ROAR

0:22:190:22:20

THUNDER CRASHES

0:22:380:22:39

HE ROARS

0:22:460:22:48

Raiders! Raiders! Raiders!

0:22:490:22:53

Necessary.

0:22:530:22:55

Stand clear, let them see me! Let them all see me!

0:22:580:23:00

They'll be slaughtered where they stand!

0:23:020:23:04

And you with them. You save your sword for Kjartan!

0:23:040:23:07

Erik, I swear, I'll kill him and be damned what follows!

0:23:090:23:12

No-one is to move! No-one! Stand still!

0:23:120:23:15

Kill him! Kill him!

0:23:150:23:18

-Kill him!

-No-one is to as much as raise their sword!

0:23:180:23:21

Uhtred, you will spare him!

0:23:210:23:23

Steady your men!

0:23:250:23:27

Back! Hold!

0:23:270:23:29

Uhtred, you will spare my brother! Name your price!

0:23:300:23:33

Kill him, Erik! Kill him, I say!

0:23:330:23:37

Erik! Haesten!

0:23:370:23:38

Sigefrid, there will be another day, another time!

0:23:380:23:41

-KILL HIM!

-Uhtred!

0:23:410:23:43

Name your price. It will be done, I swear!

0:23:450:23:48

I give you my word.

0:23:480:23:50

Kill him and you kill yourself.

0:23:500:23:52

Your word?!

0:23:520:23:53

I swear! Believe me!

0:23:530:23:55

You will take one ship and you will leave Northumbria. One ship!

0:23:580:24:02

You will not return!

0:24:020:24:03

For my brother's life, this is done!

0:24:030:24:06

SIGEFRID GROANS

0:24:100:24:12

I swear that I will kill you, Uhtred Ragnarson!

0:24:170:24:20

-This is not finished!

-I see you ARE a funny man.

0:24:210:24:24

HE ROARS

0:24:240:24:25

We are here at the request of Alfred of Wessex!

0:24:480:24:51

The king will wish to see us!

0:24:510:24:53

-Open the doors!

-Uhtred, I will speak first.

0:24:530:24:56

Father, you will say nothing!

0:24:560:24:57

Uhtred?

0:25:110:25:13

Father Beocca, I... I had heard that you were close.

0:25:140:25:17

I, er...

0:25:190:25:20

I'd not realised how close.

0:25:220:25:24

-Lord, King Alfred has sent us here to...

-Father Beocca!

0:25:240:25:27

You will allow King Guthred to speak first.

0:25:270:25:30

I had also heard that you had been recovered, Uhtred.

0:25:340:25:38

I am glad.

0:25:390:25:41

Believe me.

0:25:420:25:43

Well, if you're here to kill me,

0:25:450:25:47

I don't blame you. I would kill me, too. Huh!

0:25:470:25:50

But it would be a mistake.

0:25:500:25:52

Another mistake.

0:25:530:25:55

Lord Guthred? I am Lord Aethelwold, I come in King Alfred's stead.

0:25:560:26:01

We have gifts.

0:26:010:26:03

Sigefrid's sword hand.

0:26:110:26:13

The brothers won't trouble you again.

0:26:130:26:15

-They are dead?

-In return, you will give me your army.

0:26:190:26:23

You will ready them to march.

0:26:250:26:26

-But...

-You will do as I ask, Guthred, or I shall kill you.

0:26:260:26:30

He does not know what he says, Lord.

0:26:300:26:32

No!

0:26:320:26:33

Steapa, no!

0:26:340:26:36

I will kill you and take every consequence.

0:26:360:26:38

What you did to me...

0:26:410:26:43

..what you did to Halig...

0:26:490:26:51

..I could never forget.

0:26:560:26:57

I shall never forgive.

0:26:590:27:00

You will ready your men to march.

0:27:100:27:13

How do I know that the brothers are gone?!

0:27:140:27:17

How do I know that this hand belongs to Sigefrid?!

0:27:170:27:20

Like your uncle, I would have preferred a head.

0:27:200:27:23

-Two heads!

-Another word, Lord,

0:27:230:27:26

and it will be your own head.

0:27:260:27:28

You will do as my brother asks,

0:27:280:27:31

or I will take Eoferwic and the army for myself.

0:27:310:27:34

Beocca!

0:27:340:27:35

The king has a decision to make.

0:27:390:27:42

He's either with us...

0:27:420:27:43

..or against us.

0:27:450:27:46

CHATTER IN BACKGROUND

0:27:570:27:59

You're lucky.

0:28:030:28:04

Nothing's broken.

0:28:040:28:06

It'll hurt wielding your sword, though.

0:28:060:28:09

Well, we cannot wait for the wounded.

0:28:090:28:11

You will not have to wait for the wounded.

0:28:110:28:14

We should kill him.

0:28:140:28:16

Guthred, the turd king.

0:28:180:28:21

Do you never tire of menace?

0:28:210:28:22

I do not.

0:28:220:28:24

If we are successful in taking Dunholm, who gets to keep it?

0:28:240:28:28

Guthred. Guthred, naturally.

0:28:280:28:30

He has Eoferwic.

0:28:300:28:32

-Ragnar should have it.

-No.

0:28:320:28:34

It is Alfred's wish that it goes to Guthred.

0:28:340:28:37

Alfred has never set one foot in Northumbria,

0:28:370:28:39

it's not his decision to make.

0:28:390:28:40

Kjartan built Dunholm on the blood of Ragnar the Fearless.

0:28:400:28:44

Belongs to his blood son, Ragnar.

0:28:460:28:48

As long as my sword finds Kjartan's heart, I do not care.

0:28:480:28:52

I care.

0:28:520:28:53

The arseling is right, for once.

0:28:530:28:56

He is wrong.

0:28:560:28:58

Uhtred, you say Alfred has never set foot in Northumbria. He has no need.

0:28:590:29:04

We are here, all of us, to do his bidding.

0:29:040:29:07

And he knows how each of us will think, what each of us will do.

0:29:070:29:12

Eoferwic can never be the seat of power in Northumbria

0:29:120:29:14

whilst Dunholm remains strong, and so he allows Uhtred to attack.

0:29:140:29:18

He allows nothing.

0:29:180:29:20

I'm here because it's my business to be here.

0:29:200:29:22

Uhtred, you are his man.

0:29:220:29:24

You, more than anyone, will bring about his dream of an England.

0:29:260:29:30

Alfred's wish is for Guthred

0:29:320:29:34

to become the one true lord of the north,

0:29:340:29:36

and you will make that happen.

0:29:360:29:38

I say it as I now see it.

0:29:450:29:46

You have shit in your eye.

0:29:460:29:48

I see it as a king would see it.

0:29:500:29:52

He was crying like a baby, so I just...

0:30:220:30:24

LAUGHTER

0:30:240:30:26

Oh, his eyes were popping out of his head, I swear to God!

0:30:310:30:34

Uhtred?

0:30:340:30:36

Uhtred, will you join me, please?

0:30:390:30:41

Please?

0:30:450:30:47

I am a little afraid of you, Uhtred of Bebbanburg.

0:31:010:31:04

Envious.

0:31:060:31:07

I am king because the abbot claimed to have seen my face in a dream.

0:31:080:31:14

But it was your face that he assumed to be king, I...

0:31:150:31:20

..I feared that you would take my newly-found power.

0:31:220:31:27

I gave you my word.

0:31:280:31:30

You did.

0:31:300:31:32

But you made me a slave.

0:31:360:31:37

-Yes.

-Hm!

0:31:390:31:41

Yes. But in my defence, I was meant to kill you.

0:31:430:31:48

-I-I spared your life.

-Uhtred! No!

0:31:500:31:52

THEY LAUGH

0:31:520:31:54

You were my friend and I betrayed you.

0:32:010:32:04

My sister is well?

0:32:100:32:12

She's my wife.

0:32:160:32:17

Good. Good.

0:32:190:32:21

HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:32:220:32:24

I shall write to Alfred, I shall inform him that...

0:32:240:32:28

that your journey to Dunholm is my instruction.

0:32:280:32:31

HE CLEARS HIS THROAT

0:32:310:32:32

And I do hope that you can one day

0:32:330:32:35

find a place in your heart to forgive me.

0:32:350:32:37

I still consider you my greatest friend.

0:32:410:32:43

What did he say?

0:33:000:33:02

He said Dunholm is yours, brother.

0:33:060:33:09

Sihtric?

0:33:090:33:10

-Lord?

-You lied to me.

0:33:140:33:16

Lord, I-I-I would never...

0:33:190:33:21

You told me Dunholm has no weaknesses.

0:33:210:33:24

Yet last time I was there, I saw a door along the east wall.

0:33:240:33:27

Access to a water spring.

0:33:280:33:29

Yes, Lord, but...you could never bring an army through it.

0:33:330:33:37

I would not be bringing an army.

0:33:400:33:43

This is madness.

0:34:030:34:05

The rightful King of Wessex helping to avenge

0:34:050:34:07

the death of a big hairy Viking.

0:34:070:34:09

It would make a good song.

0:34:100:34:12

Well, should you die, Aethelwold, I shall have it written.

0:34:120:34:14

(Halt! Halt!)

0:34:240:34:26

(Ssh!)

0:34:260:34:28

This is where we part.

0:34:280:34:29

We will show ourselves only when we know the east door has been opened.

0:34:310:34:34

We will attack...

0:34:340:34:35

..then it's up to you to save us.

0:34:360:34:38

We will be theirs to slaughter.

0:34:380:34:40

Lord, may the gods be with you.

0:34:400:34:43

God. May God be with him. Us.

0:34:430:34:47

Huh! You just watch over Ragnar, hm?

0:34:470:34:50

Good luck, little brother.

0:34:570:34:59

See you all in Dunholm.

0:35:100:35:11

Move quickly. We must be in place before dawn.

0:35:240:35:27

This path is fit for goats only.

0:35:340:35:36

You be quiet and watch where you're placing your feet!

0:35:360:35:39

Bless you.

0:35:420:35:44

That ram we have dragged, it will not work.

0:36:020:36:07

It will not force open the gates...

0:36:090:36:11

..but it will work

0:36:130:36:15

in its own way.

0:36:150:36:16

We rest, we wait.

0:36:190:36:21

MUFFLED CHATTER

This will be the day.

0:37:420:37:43

Kjartan or Valhalla.

The day of days.

0:37:500:37:51

BIRDS SQUAWK

0:38:190:38:22

Their signal.

It begins.

0:39:040:39:06

Now?

0:39:120:39:13

Shield...wall!

Courage! We stand!

Every man is to stand!

HE ROARS

0:43:180:43:19

Lord! Breach!

0:43:190:43:22

With me now!

0:43:230:43:25

Steapa! The gate!

0:43:260:43:29

Kill them! To the gate!

0:43:400:43:44

We must get to the gate! Stop them!

0:43:440:43:47

Kill them!

0:43:470:43:49

It is to the end!

0:43:550:43:57

Next group, go!

0:44:010:44:02

Glory or Valhalla! Go!

0:44:020:44:06

THEY ROAR

Protect the gate!

0:44:440:44:46

Hold fast!

HE SCREAMS

0:46:300:46:32

SVEN!

0:46:410:46:42

Kjartan...you are beaten.

0:46:530:46:56

Either you die alone,

0:46:570:47:00

or together with all your men.

0:47:000:47:01

What is it to be?

0:47:030:47:05

You wish to fight me, baby Ragnar?

0:47:090:47:12

No, I...wish to kill you.

0:47:140:47:17

Drop your weapons.

0:47:170:47:19

It's over. Shield!

0:47:190:47:21

Ragnar, no! No, no!

0:47:210:47:22

No, Ragnar, don't give him the chance. Burn the bastard, Ragnar!

0:47:220:47:25

-Brida!

-You and me.

0:47:250:47:26

Move!

0:47:270:47:30

She still does!

0:48:030:48:05

Only now we have to tie her down to keep her from scratching...

0:48:100:48:14

when we hump her all night.

0:48:140:48:16

Come on, Ragnar!

0:48:240:48:26

Ragnar!

0:48:300:48:31

-I killed your father!

-Get up, Ragnar!

0:48:310:48:34

-Now get up!

-I burned your mother!

0:48:340:48:37

Go, Ragnar!

0:48:390:48:41

No! No, give me my sword!

0:49:010:49:04

For Valhalla, you must give me my sword!

0:49:170:49:21

I won't beg you.

0:49:210:49:23

Die.

0:49:230:49:24

Give me my sword!

Ragnar! It's over. It's over.

0:50:180:50:21

Shh, shh.

0:50:240:50:26

It's Thyra.

0:50:360:50:38

DOGS GROWL

0:50:450:50:46

You left me.

0:50:500:50:51

Both of you, you left me!

0:50:510:50:55

-Thyra, no.

-I-I swear, we didn't know you were alive.

0:50:550:50:59

You are no better than the bastards who whored me.

0:50:590:51:01

Thyra, please.

0:51:010:51:03

The price for my life...

0:51:040:51:07

-is yours.

-No!

0:51:070:51:10

Thyra...

0:51:140:51:16

..I forbid it.

0:51:180:51:19

Please.

0:51:250:51:27

Please...

0:51:310:51:33

..let me help you.

0:51:390:51:41

I'm a friend.

0:51:450:51:46

SHE SCREAMS

0:51:510:51:52

I have not seen you fight like that before.

0:52:150:52:18

That wasn't fighting. That was...

0:52:190:52:22

Well, killing him was not enough.

0:52:260:52:29

It can never be enough.

0:52:290:52:31

But it's done.

0:52:310:52:33

We've honoured them.

0:52:340:52:36

Yes. So, er...

0:52:390:52:41

..what now?

0:52:420:52:44

Bebbanburg?

0:52:440:52:46

HE SIGHS DEEPLY

0:52:460:52:47

Wessex.

0:52:510:52:53

It must be Wessex, or Steapa will

0:52:550:52:57

have instruction to kill me, I'm sure.

0:52:570:52:59

I need peace for a time.

0:53:010:53:02

I need my woman.

0:53:060:53:08

And what of Thyra?

0:53:140:53:16

Whatever else, she's safe.

0:53:220:53:24

FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

0:53:270:53:29

I will not hurt you.

0:53:330:53:34

I promise.

0:53:340:53:36

You do not know me...

0:53:390:53:41

but I have known your brother Uhtred since he was a small boy.

0:53:410:53:45

I am Beocca.

0:53:460:53:48

This place is Ragnar's now.

0:53:510:53:53

You have no need to hide.

0:53:550:53:57

He and Uhtred have wanted for so long to find you.

0:53:580:54:01

You have shown incredible strength, Thyra.

0:54:050:54:09

I would say God-given.

0:54:100:54:12

Bless you.

0:54:150:54:16

Stay.

0:54:250:54:26

Uhtred, he...

0:54:420:54:45

..saved me once...before,

0:54:460:54:50

from Sven, when...

0:54:500:54:53

he was your little boy.

0:54:530:54:54

Yes.

0:54:560:54:58

He would do that.
