﻿1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,520
<i>I am Uhtred, son of Uhtred.</i>

2
00:00:02,760 --> 00:00:06,640
<i>I pledged allegiance to Alfred</i>
<i>and defeated Sigefrid and Erik.</i>

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,560
<i>But they returned.</i>

4
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,240
<i>With their army,</i>
<i>they took Lundene.</i>

5
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:14,200
The gods are with us!

6
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,240
<i>Alfred sent a priest</i>
<i>to negotiate with them...</i>

7
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,000
Pyrlig is an ancient warrior.

8
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,160
<i>... while continuing his attempt</i>
<i>unification of kingdoms.</i>

9
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,880
- Am I going to get married?
-Which one of you is Aethelred?

10
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,880
Alfred couldn't have chosen
worst droppings for son-in-law.

11
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,040
<i>I was finally able to free my sister, Thyra,</i>

12
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,200
<i>and my friend Beocca found love.</i>

13
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,520
I can't do without you anymore.

14
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:38,600
Fear no more.

15
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,400
<i>As for me,</i>
<i>I spoke to a dead man</i>

16
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,520
<i>wishing</i>
<i>may his word come true.</i>

17
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,200
According to him, I should be king of Wessex,
and you too would be king.

18
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,360
You will be king of Mercia.
King of the Saxons and the Danes.

19
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,160
Do you believe what we saw?

20
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,880
<i>Now I have to decide</i>
<i>to whom to remain loyal.</i>

21
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,800
But don't forget:
you were raised by Danes.

22
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,760
<i>Destiny is sovereign.</i>

23
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,920
It was quick, like a toilet!

24
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,920
Saxon style.

25
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,680
- The water is too dirty.
- She's very good.

26
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,960
And no one sees us...

27
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,280
We're going to be late for the wedding.

28
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,160
I think of that dead man, Bjorn.

29
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,560
- Uhtred, no.
- You don't want to be queen?

30
00:02:27,920 --> 00:02:29,680
From Bebbanburg, yes.

31
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,120
But let's enjoy instead
of this beautiful morning.

32
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,320
Just you and me.

33
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:40,680
And a few hunters.

34
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,040
Who is it ?

35
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:44,560
Aethelred.

36
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:46,560
From Mercia.

37
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:49,560
Uhtred of Bebbanburg.

38
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,520
- I thought you were missing.
-Aethelred.

39
00:02:53,920 --> 00:02:56,880
So you stuck your head out
of the king's ass.

40
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,160
Momentarily.

41
00:02:58,640 --> 00:02:59,920
He is sleeping.

42
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,520
He doubts your loyalty.

43
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:03,760
As per usual.

44
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,680
He tells me that you're messing around
with these pagan Danes.

45
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:09,320
Like this one.

46
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,280
Uhtred, you are expected.

47
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,440
Between your thighs, my dear?

48
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:25,800
Calm down.

49
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,880
- You wouldn't dare.
- Cut off your nose?

50
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,200
- You have to see.
- Uhtred, they're waiting for us.

51
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,200
Uhtred, let him go.

52
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:39,840
Please.

53
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:42,920
The lord apologizes, madam.

54
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:43,960
Nothing at all.

55
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:45,720
Let's avoid a bloodbath.

56
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,240
We are at fault

57
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,000
and too proud.

58
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,000
What they say about you is true.

59
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,240
You're just a capricious bastard.

60
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,920
I will teach you respect.

61
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:03,800
Monsignor.

62
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,360
Let's break it down.

63
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:06,920
Yes.

64
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,240
I have the confidence of the king!

65
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,440
This is a warning!

66
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:26,800
KINGDOM OF WESSEX

67
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,360
I want his head.

68
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,480
It's too early.

69
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,960
Alfred would happily do without him,

70
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,160
- but he knows his value.
- He's a pagan.

71
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,800
- But he kills Danes.
- He kills Danes,

72
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,320
he survives slavery,

73
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,240
he saves the children
and mice, I bet.

74
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,080
Even my future wife sings its praises.

75
00:05:00,840 --> 00:05:01,640
Leave us.

76
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,120
I don't like him.

77
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,280
And it's reciprocal.

78
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,080
From the start.

79
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,320
You are a threat to him.

80
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:15,960
And there is one for you.

81
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,200
Our hope is Danelagh.

82
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,080
Luckily, things are going to get worse.

83
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,080
And they like to war.

84
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,880
- Do you want war?
- As a Mercian,

85
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,640
I wish to see you crowned
king of Mercia,

86
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,560
then Wessex.

87
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,280
Why not ?

88
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,920
It is Alfred who must be eliminated.

89
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,000
And for this,
a war would be necessary.

90
00:05:58,280 --> 00:05:59,560
How do I look?

91
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,560
Of a sovereign.

92
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,800
Aethelflaed is lucky.

93
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:23,800
I am witness to it,

94
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:25,200
you are related

95
00:06:26,280 --> 00:06:27,440
forever.

96
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,120
Attached to each other
as husband and wife.

97
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,480
- A prayer?
- I don't know any.

98
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:39,720
I'll say one.

99
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:43,560
Hilda!

100
00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:45,080
THANKS.

101
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:47,480
Let's pray

102
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,720
that God, His saints
and all the angels of Heaven

103
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,320
bless you.

104
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,160
Let us pray that this union between Danes

105
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:56,680
and Saxon

106
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,680
either the symbol
of a land common to all.

107
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,760
- And who only recognizes one God.
- Of course.

108
00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:04,680
Amen.

109
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:05,960
-Amen.
-Amen!

110
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,320
When are you going to tell him
what did Sihtric see?

111
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,040
That the ghost doesn't exist?

112
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,160
If I tell him, Sigefrid will find out.

113
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,080
Let them believe that we believe in it.

114
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:36,640
Looking forward to marriage.

115
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,840
A certain royal wedding.

116
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,560
A remedy for the ailments of the soul.
The hustle and bustle, the party...

117
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,520
I'm still hesitant, so don't speak
of this ghost.

118
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,480
To say that nobles came from Francia

119
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:59,440
to see the fair Aethelflaed
marry this dull hunk.

120
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:01,040
Good description.

121
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,120
In addition, the sieur will have the right
to dress it up

122
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,200
all night.

123
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:07,320
Shut up.

124
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,160
- It's the truth.
- Shut up.

125
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:10,120
Otherwise ?

126
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,400
- The Irishman?
- I will kill you in your sleep.

127
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:53,960
She is magnificent.

128
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,080
She's too good for him.

129
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:58,080
What are we waiting for?

130
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,120
Did Sihtric see anything?

131
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,200
He didn't see anything at all.

132
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,400
You are very beautiful.

133
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,080
God grants me a blessing
that I don't deserve.

134
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,520
Almighty God,

135
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,240
here we are gathered before you, on this day

136
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,920
of thanks and celebration.

137
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,440
Allow.

138
00:09:58,680 --> 00:10:00,480
I simply say

139
00:10:00,680 --> 00:10:02,280
that power, that wealth,

140
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,080
that the lands that belong to you
are going to be his.

141
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,120
- Shut him up.
- That's it, go ahead.

142
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,720
But deep inside you and your purse,

143
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,640
- you know it's true.
- Go ahead.

144
00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:18,720
All I want to say,

145
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,040
The ghost is right.

146
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,040
- My lord?
- It's a betrayal.

147
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,560
It is this marriage that is a betrayal!

148
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,880
- My lord?
- This marriage betrays

149
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,400
- Wessex and its men.
- Like you?

150
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,480
Alfred dead,
I am the legitimate successor.

151
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,840
- But he wants other heirs.
- Excuse me.

152
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,360
Cleared.

153
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,120
- I am Osferth.
- A monk.

154
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:43,280
A monk.

155
00:10:44,680 --> 00:10:46,600
- Cleared.
- My lord, you...

156
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:47,880
knew my uncle.

157
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,400
His name was Leofric.

158
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,320
He was a brave man.

159
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,680
Are you King Alfred's bastard?

160
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,880
I would like to join you, my lord.

161
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:00,520
Like my uncle did.

162
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,240
- No need for a monk.
- I want to be a warrior.

163
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:04,720
Monsignor.

164
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,320
I want to serve as a warrior.

165
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,040
Uhtred.

166
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,520
Uhtred, you're being asked.

167
00:11:16,560 --> 00:11:18,560
- The king!
- Good banquet.

168
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:22,080
You, there!

169
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:24,000
See you later.

170
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,720
Find yourself a sword and throw down your cross.

171
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,760
Thank you, my lord. Without fail.

172
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:50,680
Sire.

173
00:11:51,560 --> 00:11:52,480
We saw you.

174
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,080
- Where?
- Leave Winchester.

175
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,320
Entering Saxon Mercia
and cross Watling Street.

176
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,360
Having gone to Danelagh,

177
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,760
It deserves an explanation.

178
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,280
- And the truth.
- What business brought you

179
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,960
- at Danelagh?
- That of the king.

180
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,160
Sire, it was for you.

181
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,000
Should I speak in public?

182
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:19,480
Why not ?

183
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:26,800
Lundene has fallen.

184
00:12:27,680 --> 00:12:29,560
In the hands of the Brothers.

185
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:30,640
Impossible.

186
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:32,800
- Who says that?
- My lips moved.

187
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,280
They are in France.

188
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:36,760
They were. Not anymore.

189
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,240
They have a fleet
and an army at Beamfleot.

190
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,360
They went back up and took Lundene.

191
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,760
If this is true, it is unacceptable.

192
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,240
Lundene is in Mercia.

193
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,000
- They're going to block the river.
- Definitely.

194
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:53,520
With all due respect, Lord Uhtred,

195
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,840
we always ignore
what you were doing at Danelagh.

196
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,680
Who are you again?

197
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,720
Aldhelm, the Commander
in the custody of Lord Aethelred.

198
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,240
- Should I write it to you?
- Answer, Uhtred.

199
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,040
I was invited, madam. To Padintune.

200
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,280
I was offered
to rally Sigefrid and Erik.

201
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:15,640
To become king of Mercia.

202
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,720
- What did you answer?
- He's here, right?

203
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,000
That seems clear to me as an answer.

204
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,520
I didn't see you at church.
I hope you were there.

205
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,560
I was there, madam, of course.

206
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,920
You were resplendent.

207
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,080
THANKS.

208
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:34,600
My dear.

209
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,880
- We are talking about a serious subject.
- I know.

210
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,840
Do the Danes intend to stay in Lundene,

211
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:43,680
or do they want to be paid?

212
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,040
Good question.

213
00:13:45,560 --> 00:13:47,200
After that of your loyalty.

214
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,680
- We will offer to negotiate.
- Quite.

215
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,400
After the festivities, you and Aethelred

216
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,320
go there to assess their strengths.

217
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,280
Excellent initiative.

218
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:00,720
If you had killed

219
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,800
the Brothers in Northumbria,
none of this would have happened.

220
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,280
Majesty, may I know

221
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,440
what deal was made in Northumbria?

222
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,560
Why were the Brothers spared?

223
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,160
Uhtred told me everything.

224
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,200
He defeated Sigefrid in battle

225
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,680
and spared him
provided they leave the country.

226
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,440
To preserve life
of his own men.

227
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,000
It's called a negotiation,

228
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:32,560
Lord Aldhelm.

229
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,320
But we suffer from the consequences.

230
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,240
Every decision is followed by consequences.

231
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,880
Instead, let's focus on the present.

232
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,560
To your wisdom, sire.

233
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:04,600
My dear.

234
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,680
You don't have to intervene
in a discussion

235
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,040
which turns into informal advice.

236
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:13,600
On matters of war.

237
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,520
These questions fascinate me, my lord.

238
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,680
My father encouraged me...

239
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,760
You are no longer the king's daughter.

240
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:23,880
But my wife.

241
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,080
You will obey me.

242
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,440
You are so delicate.

243
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,920
Politics interests me.
With the king, we spoke...

244
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:35,600
You are from Mercia.

245
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:37,800
You are my queen.

246
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:39,800
Do you think you're a king?

247
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,000
You are precious to me like a queen.

248
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,400
But your tone and your insolence
displease me.

249
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:58,960
What I would like

250
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:01,280
it's you

251
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:02,720
on the stomach,

252
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:04,920
on the bed.

253
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:06,240
But...

254
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,840
Your husband wants to ride you.

255
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:12,560
On the stomach.

256
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,240
Who is it ?

257
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:19,640
Disobedience?

258
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:22,920
Confusion, my lord.

259
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,720
Should I go to Wessex?

260
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,760
Unused, but tarnished?

261
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:31,640
You wouldn't dare.

262
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:35,440
We'll see.

263
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,000
My lord!

264
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:43,880
I am yours.

265
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,400
It was a good day.

266
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:07,280
Yes.

267
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,520
- But it’s good that it’s ending.
- Sir?

268
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,920
Can I talk to you?

269
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,360
Madam, it won't be long.

270
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,920
Make sure of it, Odda. The king is tired.

271
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:32,600
Sire.

272
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,560
Don't you underestimate Uhtred?

273
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,040
He is an accomplished warrior
and he has always been loyal.

274
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:41,760
We've talked about it before.

275
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,480
He behaves like a perjurer.

276
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,960
He can be a little rebellious.

277
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,000
He went to Danelagh
without consulting us.

278
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,920
If I tolerate this,
he is a good warrior.

279
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:59,160
Without this prank, we would have
ignored the fall of Lundene.

280
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,640
Do not doubt any second
of Uhtred's ambition.

281
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,640
He will have been tempted by the Brothers' offer.

282
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:10,240
But he has returned, sire.

283
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:11,480
For what?

284
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,040
Spying, champing at the bit?

285
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,280
He did not give this information
only by being ordered to do so.

286
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,160
- It's true.
- Ask yourself why.

287
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,920
I have often said it,

288
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,360
better have it with me
than against me,

289
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,320
but he is not pious
and never will be.

290
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,840
Rest well, Odda,
you need it.

291
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,560
What's bothering you?

292
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,080
Uhtred knows the ghost didn't exist.

293
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,320
- Do you think so?
- Yes.

294
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,560
We should have spoken to him man to man.

295
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,680
Does he know it was a ruse?

296
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:07,960
Yes.

297
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:10,440
Possible.

298
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:12,880
But you're not sure?

299
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:15,040
No.

300
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,320
- And your pain?
- Same.

301
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:40,560
Constant.

302
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,600
As a reminder that I am alive.

303
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:51,400
That I must live.

304
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,640
If Uhtred knows about the ruse,

305
00:19:59,120 --> 00:20:00,440
he will come.

306
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,760
- With Alfred's army.
- Yes.

307
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,440
A good opportunity to kill him.

308
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,760
We can raise the biggest army
that these coasts have ever seen.

309
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:18,840
It's doable.

310
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:24,560
The Thames would be black with boats.
Of Danes and Vikings.

311
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,120
You just have to play fine.

312
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,640
- And be patient.
- Patients?

313
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,320
Blood must flow, my brother,

314
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,240
but we could become kings.

315
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,400
Farewell Aethelstan,

316
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,240
farewell Aethelred,

317
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:53,520
goodbye Alfred,

318
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:56,920
goodbye Uhtred.

319
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,280
Lundene has a bad reputation, it seems.

320
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,800
Yes, but it's full of entertainment
of all kinds.

321
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,280
They say women are harassed
and we fish out

322
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:28,680
drowning people every day.

323
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,640
Twice a day! Every tide.

324
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:37,080
It's not Winchester.
But a year here is worth ten elsewhere.

325
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:42,120
- Why don't you live there, then?
- To end up drowned? Are you kidding?

326
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,960
Who says they won't kill us
to rally the Brothers?

327
00:21:47,360 --> 00:21:49,160
I wondered that too.

328
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,520
The answer is that you are
the king's son-in-law.

329
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,440
KINGDOM OF MERCIA

330
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,680
- You seem to be on familiar ground.
- I lived here.

331
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,240
With Ragnar the Brave, when I was little.

332
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:17,360
And Danish.

333
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,560
We have an asset,

334
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,360
Lundene is hard to defend.
It's too big.

335
00:22:26,120 --> 00:22:28,840
Even the walls of the Roman city
is too extensive.

336
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:30,400
The Brothers are vulnerable.

337
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:32,360
That's saying a lot.

338
00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:35,320
But the city has experienced
many invaders.

339
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,880
We're almost there. It's me who will speak.

340
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,400
Ask them to eat and drink.

341
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,320
My stomach is screaming for hunger.

342
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,000
- How can you die from that?
- Behead him.

343
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,560
- And let's get this over with.
- No.

344
00:23:01,120 --> 00:23:04,160
- I want to understand.
- The cross kills slowly.

345
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,400
It takes days.
It's both torture

346
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,960
and an execution. Unlike the Saxons

347
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,200
and to the Danes, the Romans were clever.

348
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,760
So. You have your answer.

349
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:16,840
- Cut off his head.
- GOOD.

350
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:17,960
And please,

351
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,960
do the same for me
when my turn comes.

352
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,240
- You talk too much.
- Yes.

353
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:25,640
Kill me promptly.

354
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:35,560
May God keep us.

355
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,600
It's a death. Nothing more.

356
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:49,840
Lords.

357
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:52,440
This is Uhtred.

358
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,800
Uhtred Ragnarsson.

359
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,920
The future king of Mercia.

360
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,000
Welcome to Lundene,

361
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,240
your future stronghold. If you wish.

362
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:14,880
Sigefrid.

363
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,400
- You don't want my skin anymore?
- It's in the past.

364
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,560
I finally like my new hand.

365
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,000
You just have to be careful when wiping yourself.

366
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,520
Nice to see you here, Uhtred.

367
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,520
- Who are your friends?
- It's Aethelred.

368
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,000
- From Mercia.
- My lord.

369
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:40,640
You are the one who is going to marry

370
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,040
- Alfred's daughter?
- No, my lord.

371
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,000
I already married her.

372
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,240
- Is it a good mount?
- I'm not complaining.

373
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:50,520
What is he doing here?

374
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,640
I came to ask you your price.

375
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,320
- To leave Lundene.
- Alfred wants to negotiate.

376
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:57,320
I want to negotiate.

377
00:24:58,120 --> 00:25:01,280
We have just arrived,
why would we leave?

378
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:02,480
You are warriors.

379
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,600
And the city is indefensible.

380
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:06,160
So let's negotiate.

381
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,280
Is this a threat?

382
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:10,000
Your price.

383
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:11,520
Yes, it seems.

384
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,200
I ask you to withdraw.
For money.

385
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,360
Our price will be in kind.

386
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,080
Your wife, Aethelflaed.

387
00:25:22,120 --> 00:25:24,880
- This is absurd.
- She is beautiful, intelligent.

388
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:26,040
Good to marry.

389
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:27,920
And good to pack. We will share.

390
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,880
- She's my wife.
- They tease you.

391
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,520
Will you offer us a drink?

392
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,960
- It's been a long road.
- Understood, Lord Uhtred.

393
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,720
- And what to eat?
- Stale bread,

394
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:48,000
but edible.

395
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,480
They say you saw the ghost.

396
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,840
- Yes.
- Did he speak?

397
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:09,880
On a certain level, yes.

398
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:11,440
Do you speak for Ragnar

399
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,600
and his men? Are you with us?

400
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,320
- I am here.
- Certainly.

401
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,720
But for Alfred? Or for yourself?

402
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:26,480
Ragnar is in the North.
By the time he makes a decision...

403
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,280
I can't guarantee anything.

404
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,600
- Where do your prisoners come from?
- From Guthrum's ass.

405
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,960
His name is Aethelstan now.

406
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,840
Guthrum is a poor piece of shit.

407
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,760
His priests come to Beamfleot to beg.

408
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,840
So that we lay down our arms.
And to do what?

409
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,040
Raising sheep?

410
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,280
Others do it.

411
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,960
There are no shepherds in Valhalla.

412
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,840
Are you going to crucify all the priests?

413
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,040
This amuses Sigefrid.

414
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,520
- I want to see how they die.
- Slowly.

415
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,320
- A cruel death.
- The priest said that.

416
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:01,680
He's right.

417
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,280
This priest is nothing but skin and bones.

418
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:06,640
Let him defend himself.

419
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,360
The Romans used this place
for that. Combat.

420
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,240
He would die too easily.

421
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,000
Unless there's a reward.
Like freedom.

422
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:26,440
For what ?

423
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:31,640
Gutting him is better
than nailing it to a piece of wood.

424
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,760
Where is the fun?

425
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:50,040
Boltan!

426
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,360
We want to have fun!

427
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,280
Are you ready to kill a priest?

428
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:07,760
One second.

429
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,000
Point forward?

430
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,760
If I kill him, I'm free,
is that okay?

431
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,400
- That's it.
- Do you hear, Boltan?

432
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:19,680
- He plans to kill you!
- Yes.

433
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,320
You have been warned.

434
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,120
I shudder. Spare me this ordeal!

435
00:28:24,360 --> 00:28:25,200
Please.

436
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,200
Stand up, priest.

437
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:05,880
Finish him off!

438
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:27,160
I won't kill this idiot.
It would make his mother cry.

439
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,160
Do I have your warriors word

440
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:36,400
- that I am a free man?
- You have my word, priest.

441
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:41,680
If you all fight this badly,

442
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,640
Alfred will easily kick you out of here.

443
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,240
Put down your sword.

444
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:47,720
Gladly.

445
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:49,400
She weighs her weight.

446
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,880
Push yourself.

447
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,360
Where did you learn to fight?

448
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:02,760
At the monastery?

449
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,680
I'm Briton. I kill Saxons
since I was born.

450
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,200
Join us. Join me.

451
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,280
Ten years ago,
I might have said yes.

452
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,760
But today I fight for my God

453
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,720
and my freedom, it seems.

454
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,120
If you allow,
I'm leaving with Lord Uhtred.

455
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,320
We must first agree on a price.

456
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:28,800
I hope.

457
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:31,200
How much ?

458
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,120
To leave Lundene?

459
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,560
- Their refusal is disturbing.
- For what ?

460
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,640
The more they procrastinate,
the higher the price of Lundene goes.

461
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,880
Have you assessed their strengths?

462
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,360
Pyrlig, the priest,
speaks of a thousand men.

463
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,840
- We can collect three times as many.
- Lundene is not a field.

464
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,480
- Numbers are not everything.
- Of course it is.

465
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,360
We will lead the siege.

466
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,080
- There must be many.
- Who cares about the losses?

467
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,120
Victory is won at the cost of death.

468
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,080
I won't lose any men
casually.

469
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,080
We need an action plan.

470
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,880
And you have one.

471
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,160
We force a door en masse,

472
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:16,960
we bring in a group

473
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,440
through a second door.

474
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,720
- By attacking dry land?
- Yes.

475
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:21,960
- Not from the river?
- No.

476
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,440
That would be a better tactic.

477
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:25,480
Less predictable.

478
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,280
Is there a gate near the river?

479
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,160
- Yes, named Ludd Gate.
- Perfect.

480
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,720
We row without noise,
in the dark, and we surprise them.

481
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,920
The current is too strong
to disembark safely.

482
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:39,760
But if my lord

483
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,880
believes that soldiers
at the bottom of the water are useful,

484
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:44,640
let him do it.

485
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,120
I hear your advice, Uhtred,

486
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:48,840
but can I trust it?

487
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:51,280
Pardon ?

488
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,280
The Brothers name you
"future lord of Mercia".

489
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,720
- “The future king”, sire.
- For what ?

490
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:11,920
Why king?

491
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,400
What did you say?

492
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,200
- What did you conclude?
- Nothing.

493
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,040
- How can I believe you?
- It's boring, sire.

494
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:20,680
Boring for whom?

495
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:22,960
You serve me,

496
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:27,040
but you are acting as a spy.
You come and go to Danelagh,

497
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,360
you don't tell everything, keep secrets

498
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,240
and refuse to recognize
the existence of God.

499
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:33,960
You serve me reluctantly!

500
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,560
- But I do it.
- I don't know who you are!

501
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,480
I will never know.

502
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:50,880
I don't understand you.

503
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,240
And it torments me more and more.

504
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,120
As a bonus, my enemies

505
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,480
treat you like a king!

506
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,080
And you, weasel.

507
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:10,840
Both are false.

508
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:15,680
Impossible.

509
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,240
Let's plan the attack.
Leave us, Uhtred.

510
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,240
- Withdraw.
- My pleasure.

511
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,680
If necessary, you will find me at the hostel.

512
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:12,040
Sir,

513
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:16,200
with all due respect, this insolence

514
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,280
deserves to be punished.

515
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,800
It's none of your business,
but that of Wessex.

516
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,240
- Uhtred will return to Coccham.
- We are on the verge of a war.

517
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,800
- Deprive yourself of such a warrior...
- Uhtred will return to Coccham.

518
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:35,040
I'm going to the hostel
inform him personally.

519
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:39,520
As you wish.

520
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,360
Recruit 1,000 men.
We will send as many.

521
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:47,880
- GOOD.
- My instructions

522
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:52,440
will follow, in writing.
Drive the Brothers out of Lundene.

523
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,240
It will be done, sire. THANKS.

524
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:03,360
Steapa.

525
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:06,080
Yes, sire.

526
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,280
Do you trust Uhtred?

527
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:12,760
To life and death, sire.

528
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,120
He thinks I drink too much.

529
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,120
And lately, it's not wrong.

530
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:05,560
You like the taste, my lord.

531
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,560
Rather the effect.

532
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:15,720
I'm getting old, Uhtred.

533
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,120
And I have no son
to take over from me.

534
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,840
I wasted my life.

535
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:29,560
No.

536
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,640
- No way.
- Don't abandon him.

537
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,200
Not right away.

538
00:36:38,240 --> 00:36:39,960
I am not a perjurer.

539
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,880
But how to serve a man
who doubts me?

540
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,960
To whom I have given so much.

541
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,840
He only sees my uniqueness.

542
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,920
And I only see his piety.

543
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,040
I'm starting to despise him.

544
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:10,280
I questioned him,

545
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,120
and my doubts were only reinforced.

546
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:22,320
I aspire to a unified England
under the divine banner,

547
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,640
and I depend on the strength of an impious one.

548
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:32,160
- The sword of a pagan.
- This is not consistent.

549
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:33,360
Indeed.

550
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,760
And if all this were not
what a temptation from the Devil?

551
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,280
Give me a warrior
apparently loyal and brave,

552
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:51,680
which little by little eats away at my soul
and disturb my beliefs?

553
00:37:55,960 --> 00:38:01,200
Majesty,
the Devil would do it that way.

554
00:38:01,720 --> 00:38:05,320
But I assure you
that your soul is intact.

555
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:07,840
I would know otherwise.

556
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:15,200
Uhtred will not change.
He will remain ungodly until his death.

557
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,160
And you won't change either.

558
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:23,080
Your faith will only grow.

559
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:31,240
You are God's chosen king, my lord.

560
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,560
But my right arm is pagan.

561
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,720
Does he have your complete trust?

562
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:44,680
No.

563
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:50,400
Impossible.

564
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:55,760
So separate yourself from him.

565
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,120
KINGDOM OF MERCIA

566
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,880
I have a letter in my hand

567
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,120
of King Alfred, of Wessex.

568
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,320
He promises us

569
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,080
a thousand men as reinforcements!

570
00:39:51,720 --> 00:39:57,080
A thousand men required
by Lord Aethelred,

571
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:01,400
so that we fight
alongside Mercia

572
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,200
to rid Lundene

573
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,080
of this stinking and poisonous vermin,

574
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,120
of these disgusting and infamous swine

575
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,080
what are the Danes!

576
00:40:13,240 --> 00:40:14,040
Ours!

577
00:40:16,240 --> 00:40:17,280
To health

578
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,040
warriors of Mercia.

579
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:25,360
Where we will go,
Alfred and Wessex will follow us.

580
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,720
We will get up.

581
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:29,800
We will rise!

582
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:34,000
Long live Mercia!

583
00:41:00,240 --> 00:41:02,240
You peck like a bird.

584
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:03,680
Cluck, cluck, cluck.

585
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,200
I have no appetite.

586
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:12,600
We're hitting the road tomorrow.

587
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,720
- Come with me.
- In combat?

588
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:17,560
Just a part of the way.

589
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:21,280
Unless it bores you.

590
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,160
No. I will come willingly.

591
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:25,800
So eat.

592
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:28,040
Gain strength.

593
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:36,880
Out.

594
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,520
Get out. All.

595
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:57,720
Your complexion is so pale.

596
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:07,960
So pure.

597
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,000
- My contact offends you?
- No, I was surprised.

598
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:18,240
Nothing more.

599
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,080
Love should be sweet and tender,
my lord.

600
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,080
“Soft and tender,” she said.

601
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:31,960
What do you know about love?

602
00:42:32,720 --> 00:42:34,440
- Nothing.
- I'm not the first?

603
00:42:35,720 --> 00:42:36,840
Don't insult me.

604
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:38,720
Keep your lessons

605
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:40,960
- on the art of packing.
- No lessons here.

606
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:42,080
Who was it?

607
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,920
- Were there several?
- You are welcome.

608
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,800
- Is Uhtred one of them?
- Don't talk to me like that!

609
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:50,680
For what ? You are my wife!

610
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,040
I am Aethelflaed of Wessex!

611
00:42:53,240 --> 00:42:55,360
Don't treat me like a servant!

612
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:56,560
I forbid you...

613
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,800
I formally forbid you

614
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,000
to use this harpy tone!

615
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:23,640
You will see a priest.

616
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:26,040
And I will know for sure.

617
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,480
Your heart is devoid of love.

618
00:43:28,720 --> 00:43:30,240
You will see a priest!

619
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,720
UHTRED ESTATE, WESSEX

620
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:28,040
Father Beocca.

621
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:30,200
I have to talk to you.

622
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:32,560
Of prayer.

623
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:44,560
This cannot last.

624
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,840
I'm afraid I'm not the first.

625
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:50,960
With my wife.

626
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:52,680
The first ?

627
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:55,320
To own it.

628
00:44:58,240 --> 00:45:02,200
- She's the king's daughter...
- I want proof of its purity.

629
00:45:04,720 --> 00:45:07,280
Did you ask her about this?

630
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:08,800
I want the truth.

631
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:11,720
Can we test his word?

632
00:45:12,240 --> 00:45:13,640
It's Aethelflaed.

633
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:15,880
Should I contact another priest?

634
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,680
- That my wife doesn't know?
- Lord Aethelred!

635
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,200
Welcome to Coccham.

636
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,360
The pearl of Wessex!

637
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,040
Uhtred is waiting for you.

638
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:30,480
There is definitely a way.
In the holy books.

639
00:45:30,720 --> 00:45:31,560
So do.

640
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:35,600
Uhtred is with the women.

641
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:37,520
He helps in the kitchen.

642
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,320
This is the fate of a banished warrior.

643
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,560
I had never entered the homes of pagans.

644
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:51,680
It's surprisingly warm.

645
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,560
Did you expect to see
severed heads?

646
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:55,680
Yes, ma'am.

647
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,440
- Forgive my ignorance.
- I forgive you.

648
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:01,160
For this time.

649
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,640
Lady Aethelflaed will join us
after prayer?

650
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,720
If she wishes.

651
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:09,720
The trip tired her.

652
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,760
- Is this trip very prudent?
- Madam wished

653
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:14,640
accompany her husband.

654
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,320
They are newlyweds.

655
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:19,920
She will be safe.

656
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,880
Does the king write that during the siege
from Lundene,

657
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:26,200
Should I be in front?

658
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,080
That wouldn't surprise me.

659
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,200
I will command the troops. All.

660
00:46:34,720 --> 00:46:37,040
- Is this the king's wish?
- Yes.

661
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:38,120
Oh, no.

662
00:46:40,240 --> 00:46:41,760
Are you one of us?

663
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:45,080
Naturally.

664
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:47,160
I am a Lord of Wessex.

665
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:50,120
Alfred grants you this last chance.

666
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:53,320
Your plan?

667
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:56,840
We will go down the river together,

668
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:58,880
join the troops
of Mercia and Wessex

669
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:00,040
and camp near Lundene.

670
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:01,920
And a plan of attack?

671
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:03,280
Yes.

672
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,080
It's quite similar to yours.

673
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:08,720
You will attack the north gate
with your men.

674
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,680
Once the attack is launched,
I will take over

675
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:15,080
- with the main army.
- How will you know?

676
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:16,400
I will know.

677
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:18,560
You will know.

678
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:20,840
Don't doubt me.

679
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:23,560
I want this victory.

680
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,800
Lundene belongs to Mercia
and I am a lord of Mercia.

681
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,680
I won't stop at anything
to get back what's mine.

682
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:33,480
Either.

683
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:35,280
I'm with Uhtred.

684
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:38,280
No, Steapa, with me.

685
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,040
I'm with Uhtred.

686
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:42,680
Order of the king.

687
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:48,360
Alright.

688
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,240
I'm with Steapa.

689
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:53,520
Behind Steapa.

690
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,320
Such bravery, Aethelwold.

691
00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:57,960
Let's toast.

692
00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,480
To the Mercians who gave
their life in Ethandun.

693
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,720
And to the men of Wessex
who will fight for Lundene.

694
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:07,480
To the allies.

695
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:09,840
To the allies.

696
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:33,360
This is the word of the Lord.

697
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,560
If a man fears
that his wife was unfaithful...

698
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:40,880
I wasn't.

699
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:44,040
He will take her to a priest

700
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:47,680
who will prepare bitter waters.

701
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,400
A mixture of holy water

702
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,000
and from the earth she must drink.

703
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:06,200
If she committed adultery
with another man,

704
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:07,480
the Lord

705
00:49:07,720 --> 00:49:11,920
will dry out his thighs
and swell his stomach. Amen.

706
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:15,480
Amen.

707
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:18,920
My child,

708
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:23,400
now drink the bitter waters.

709
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,600
It's not necessary.

710
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:51,080
You are pure. May God take me
if you are not.

711
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:58,880
Does he hit you?

712
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,960
If not, he will one day. I see it.

713
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:12,560
He is neither gentle nor affectionate.

714
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,320
- Let's talk to the king about it.
- No.

715
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,440
- Don't do that.
- Only he can intervene.

716
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,160
God put an end to this ordeal
before it starts.

717
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,960
All Mercians
don't like Wessex.

718
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:30,240
Some regret the influence of the king.

719
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,400
I must remain loyal to Alfred.

720
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:37,400
My husband will not break me.

721
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,280
Don't tell anyone
what happened here.

722
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:50,840
You are very silent.

723
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:55,600
I didn't sleep.

724
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:57,040
Should I talk to Thyra?

725
00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:59,920
- That she moderates her ardor?
- Certainly not.

726
00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:03,960
- It's way too intimate.
- What is intimate?

727
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:08,360
That's enough.
I don't want to hear from you anymore.

728
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:36,840
KINGDOM OF MERCIA

729
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:43,600
Lords, they have set up camp,

730
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:44,920
less than a league.

731
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:47,760
At work.

732
00:51:48,240 --> 00:51:49,080
Tobi.

733
00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:50,480
The fire must be smoking.

734
00:51:50,720 --> 00:51:52,400
- Very black.
- Yes, my lord.

735
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:53,560
It will smoke.

736
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,360
All hands on deck!

737
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,040
Let's get ready!

738
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,640
You know what you have to do.

739
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:10,680
We will not fail!

740
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:12,640
Come on !

741
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:14,320
Victory is ours!

742
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,120
- It's open.
- Guards?

743
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:50,240
None. It's a trap.

744
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:57,400
If it's a trap, let's go for it!

745
00:52:58,280 --> 00:52:59,120
Shut up.

746
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:21,280
Go home !

747
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,400
If you want to live, stay inside.

748
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,760
What's going on?

749
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:46,240
No idea.

750
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:51,120
Wall of shields!

751
00:54:05,240 --> 00:54:06,440
Aethelred!

752
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:09,480
Aethelred!

753
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:11,080
Uhtred?

754
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,320
- We didn't meet anyone.
- The same !

755
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:18,760
They fled.

756
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,400
It's strength in numbers.
They fear us.

757
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:24,880
Push yourself!

758
00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:27,360
They fear us!

759
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,320
The city is ours!

760
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:33,760
No ! Stay in training!

761
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:37,880
In training!

762
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:43,360
Lord !

763
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:53,280
Attention !

764
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,880
- It's a signal!
- Without a doubt.

765
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:57,640
They will arrive.

766
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,520
The smoke will be visible
at least a league away.

767
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:12,400
Aethelred!

768
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:14,320
Aethelred!

769
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:21,440
Get out of the way.

770
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:24,880
Aethelred! Camp!

771
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:27,920
Thira.

772
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:39,080
Death.

773
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:41,640
Death is approaching.

774
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:44,280
Death is approaching.

775
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:47,680
Death is approaching!

776
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:52,360
Standing !

777
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:55,680
Wake up !

778
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:58,280
Death is approaching!

779
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:01,440
Standing !

780
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,080
Standing !

781
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,520
Take out your swords!

782
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:11,720
Standing !

783
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:15,360
We must protect Aethelflaed!

784
00:56:15,720 --> 00:56:17,200
At all costs!

785
00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,560
For God and for the king!

786
00:56:36,720 --> 00:56:37,800
This way!

787
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:44,880
Aethelflaed!

788
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:46,760
Aethelflaed!

789
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:51,160
Princess !

790
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:52,840
The forest!

791
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:14,280
This way!

792
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:24,320
Aethelflaed, faster!

793
00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:27,080
Run away!

794
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:49,920
