00:00:00,098 --> 00:00:04,187
I am Uhtred, son of Uhtred.
I released the slave Guthred
2
00:00:04,188 --> 00:00:06,767
and saw him crowned King of Cumbraland.
3
00:00:07,938 --> 00:00:12,337
I fell in love with his sister
while commanding his troops.
4
00:00:12,338 --> 00:00:15,057
I wish to be seen as Sigefrid's equal.
5
00:00:15,058 --> 00:00:17,777
I ask that you offer
your sister in marriage.
6

He behaves as if HE were king!
7
00:00:20,448 --> 00:00:22,467
To defeat Kjartan the Cruel,
8
00:00:22,468 --> 00:00:26,407
an alliance was formed with
the brothers Erik and Sigefrid.
9
00:00:26,408 --> 00:00:28,467
Kjartan's land will become your land.
10
00:00:28,468 --> 00:00:30,057
To peace.
11
00:00:30,058 --> 00:00:32,917
But Guthred's counsellors
saw me as a threat
12
00:00:32,918 --> 00:00:35,877
and wanted Christian men in the army.
13
00:00:35,878 --> 00:00:39,527
He believes himself to
be above each one of us.
14
00:00:39,528 --> 00:00:43,097
And so a secret bargain
was made with my uncle.
15
00:00:43,098 --> 00:00:44,687
200 spears.
16
00:00:44,688 --> 00:00:48,817
In return I shall require
the head of Osbert.
17
00:00:48,818 --> 00:00:50,127
What are you doing?
18
00:00:50,128 --> 00:00:53,407
Guthred showed clemency,
but still betrayed me.
19
00:00:53,408 --> 00:00:56,267
You will become a slave,
Uhtred, and Halig with you.

King Alfred freed my
brother Ragnar to rescue me.

00:12:38,008 --> 00:12:40,207
I pray God will keep him safe, Lady.

[HE GRUNTS AND BREATHES HEAVILY]
181
00:13:02,338 --> 00:13:05,477
Osbert, he will not stop bailing.
182
00:13:17,848 --> 00:13:19,537
Rest.
183
00:13:19,538 --> 00:13:21,177
You will need your strength.
184
00:13:22,918 --> 00:13:24,597
I am happy enough to bail.
185
00:13:29,988 --> 00:13:31,257
Hey!

[COMPETING MEN GRUNT]
187
00:13:40,308 --> 00:13:42,927
Oh. Oh, you think you're
better than these men?
188
00:13:44,198 --> 00:13:45,927
They are property.
189
00:13:45,928 --> 00:13:47,757
As are you.
190
00:13:47,758 --> 00:13:50,197
You should let go of your pride.
191
00:13:50,198 --> 00:13:51,837
It will be the death of you.
192
00:13:53,618 --> 00:13:54,837
Rest.
193
00:14:01,678 --> 00:14:04,537
He's right, you should rest.
194
00:14:08,198 --> 00:14:10,397
We're wasting away, you and l.
195
00:14:10,398 --> 00:14:13,537
We should be saving what's
left of our strength to run.
196
00:14:16,828 --> 00:14:20,717
But to run we'll need skin on
our feet and not rotting flesh.
197
00:14:24,698 --> 00:14:26,057
Then we should bail.
198
00:14:35,206 --> 00:14:37,785
These wretches all tell
the same story, Lord.
199
00:14:40,306 --> 00:14:43,225
They flee slaughter at
the hands of the brothers.
200
00:14:43,226 --> 00:14:45,335
We must surely be next.
201
00:14:45,336 --> 00:14:46,505
And what do I do?
202
00:14:47,956 --> 00:14:49,785
Do I fight?
203
00:14:49,786 --> 00:14:51,755
Do I now march against the brothers?
204
00:14:51,756 --> 00:14:55,085
It is not my place to instruct
a king in the ways of war.
205
00:14:55,086 --> 00:14:57,515
I am asking for your counsel!
206
00:14:57,516 --> 00:15:00,425
I am without a commander of my guard.
207
00:15:00,426 --> 00:15:03,615
Then I would say we need
first to secure grain enough
208
00:15:03,616 --> 00:15:06,475
for the winter to feed these wretches.
209
00:15:06,476 --> 00:15:11,015
And I would say we need Lord Aelfric
of Bebbanburg, now more than ever.
210
00:15:21,376 --> 00:15:24,945
We would appreciate some water,
for ourselves and the horses.
211
00:15:24,946 --> 00:15:26,305
It's yours.
212
00:15:35,726 --> 00:15:37,645
- You are Jonis?
- I am.
213
00:15:37,646 --> 00:15:42,055
I've been told that you took a man,
a warrior, from Guthred of Eoferwic.
214
00:15:42,056 --> 00:15:43,605
You sold him as a slave.
215
00:15:43,606 --> 00:15:46,505
I see the faces of so many creatures.
216
00:15:46,506 --> 00:15:49,315
- I'm not here to open your belly, Jonis.
- Not yet.
217
00:15:51,716 --> 00:15:53,445
I'll pay you.
218
00:15:53,446 --> 00:15:54,575
Here.
219
00:15:56,396 --> 00:15:58,465
You will not feed the slaves!
220
00:15:58,466 --> 00:16:02,165
And you will not bark
like a great, fat hound!
221
00:16:07,326 --> 00:16:08,725
You said you will pay?
222
00:16:08,726 --> 00:16:09,995
Yes, I did.
223
00:16:15,436 --> 00:16:16,975
A warrior slave,
224
00:16:16,976 --> 00:16:18,615
called himself Osbert.
225
00:16:23,966 --> 00:16:25,695
There was another man.
226
00:16:25,696 --> 00:16:27,765
Smaller, Saxon.
227
00:16:29,446 --> 00:16:32,562
A sea trader named
Sverri took them both.
228
00:16:32,563 --> 00:16:33,628
Where is Sverri now?
229
00:16:33,663 --> 00:16:36,905
Wherever the sea and
promise of silver takes him.
230
00:16:36,906 --> 00:16:39,715
Life at the oar is hard and short.
231
00:16:39,716 --> 00:16:44,215
Sverri will return, I'm
sure, refresh his crew.
232
00:16:44,216 --> 00:16:47,595
- When?
- Autumn and winter will pass.
233
00:16:47,596 --> 00:16:53,545
But, come spring, the first
full moon after Sigrblot,
234
00:16:53,546 --> 00:16:55,655
we will gather for
business at the beach.
235
00:16:57,156 --> 00:16:59,635
Sverri will be there, I swear.
236
00:17:01,846 --> 00:17:03,955
And between that time he sails where?
237
00:17:05,026 --> 00:17:08,075
His ships plough the roughest sea.
238
00:17:08,076 --> 00:17:10,095
- He could be any place.
- You tell us nothing.
239
00:17:10,096 --> 00:17:12,135
I tell you what I know to be true.
240
00:17:12,996 --> 00:17:15,765
All you can do is watch
the beaches and wait.
241
00:17:29,126 --> 00:17:30,575
Move it.
242
00:17:30,576 --> 00:17:32,215
It's East Anglia.
243
00:17:34,986 --> 00:17:36,395
It could well be Frankia.
244
00:17:40,896 --> 00:17:42,155
Drink water.
245
00:17:43,426 --> 00:17:45,865
- I need land.
- Yes.
246
00:17:45,866 --> 00:17:48,435
Lord, I need land. I need to get out.
247
00:17:48,436 --> 00:17:50,130
- I need land!
- Halig!
248
00:17:50,131 --> 00:17:51,700
- I need land!
- Back at your place!
249
00:17:51,726 --> 00:17:52,795
He is back in his place.

tell them you have silver!

Worthless slaves.
255
00:18:14,596 --> 00:18:16,375
Halig. Halig.
256
00:18:16,376 --> 00:18:19,985
- I can't stay on this ship!
- Halig.
257
00:18:19,986 --> 00:18:21,765
You are a warrior.
258
00:18:24,016 --> 00:18:26,455
You followed me into battle at Ethandun.
259
00:18:27,726 --> 00:18:30,775
You fought bravely. Halig!
260
00:18:30,776 --> 00:18:35,135
You saved me from Kjartan's spies
in Cumbraland. Remember that?
261
00:18:36,726 --> 00:18:39,165
I did.
262
00:18:39,166 --> 00:18:40,385
You did.
263
00:18:42,346 --> 00:18:43,805
We are warriors!
264
00:18:46,286 --> 00:18:47,745
And our time will come.
265
00:18:49,946 --> 00:18:51,865
Look at me, Halig.
266
00:18:53,746 --> 00:18:56,505
You have followed every
order I've ever given you.
267
00:18:56,506 --> 00:18:59,175
Now I'm giving you one more.
268
00:18:59,176 --> 00:19:00,395
You will row.
269
00:19:01,526 --> 00:19:05,175
You will pull and you will
wait and our time will come.
270
00:19:05,176 --> 00:19:07,105
And then together, we shall win.
271
00:19:08,746 --> 00:19:10,005
Together.
272
00:19:32,466 --> 00:19:34,615
Please tell me he's
not here as a suitor.
273
00:19:34,616 --> 00:19:37,665
He's Ceolwulf, the father of Mercia.
274
00:19:37,666 --> 00:19:38,795
He is barely alive.
275
00:19:43,436 --> 00:19:44,695
Lord Ceolwulf.
276
00:19:46,336 --> 00:19:49,805
Wessex is honoured to welcome you.
277
00:19:49,806 --> 00:19:52,255
We welcome all of the
ealdormen of Mercia.
278
00:19:52,256 --> 00:19:53,199
We do not.
279
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,856
May our discussions prove to be
beneficial and fruitful for both parties.
280
00:19:56,891 --> 00:19:58,705
Swords, Alfred.
281
00:19:59,516 --> 00:20:03,505
I shall make my point
clear from the outset.
282
00:20:03,506 --> 00:20:04,865
We demand swords...
283
00:20:06,506 --> 00:20:08,755
and the men to carry them.
284
00:20:08,756 --> 00:20:12,875
To help stem the wave upon wave of
raiders, Lord, from the Daneland.
285
00:20:12,876 --> 00:20:14,335
Forgive my interruption.
286
00:20:14,336 --> 00:20:19,255
Mercia lost many a warrior
at Ethandun, and willingly.
287
00:20:21,366 --> 00:20:23,895
I expect repayment.
288
00:20:23,896 --> 00:20:26,195
I hear you, Ceolwulf.
289
00:20:26,196 --> 00:20:28,585
I consider our lands to be one...
290
00:20:28,586 --> 00:20:30,695
No, we are not one.
291
00:20:30,696 --> 00:20:34,535
We are Mercia and you are Wessex.
292
00:20:37,956 --> 00:20:40,025
Refreshment?
293
00:20:40,026 --> 00:20:40,955
Swords!
294
00:20:42,696 --> 00:20:45,085
I will not be silenced.
295
00:20:45,086 --> 00:20:49,025
Lord Ceolwulf, perhaps a seat?
It has been a long journey.
296
00:20:49,026 --> 00:20:50,475
It has.
297
00:20:52,446 --> 00:20:53,475
For a purpose.
298
00:20:55,726 --> 00:20:57,365
I understand completely
299
00:20:57,366 --> 00:21:01,635
that at times the east of Mercia
is overrun with Viking raiders.
300
00:21:01,636 --> 00:21:04,535
We suffer the same fate
along our northern border.
301
00:21:04,536 --> 00:21:06,975
What of your warrior Uhtred?
302
00:21:08,336 --> 00:21:10,725
He is a leader of men.
303
00:21:10,726 --> 00:21:13,725
Dispatch him to our
border with Daneland.
304
00:21:13,726 --> 00:21:17,155
Uhtred and 50 men, I will accept.
305
00:21:19,866 --> 00:21:24,415
Uhtred was last seen in Northumbria,
Lord, the place of his birth.
306
00:21:24,416 --> 00:21:25,775
Northumbria?
307
00:21:26,946 --> 00:21:31,125
You can send men to the far
north but not to your neighbour?
308
00:21:32,806 --> 00:21:34,965
Lord Ceolwulf.
309
00:21:34,966 --> 00:21:38,665
The solution to our
problem, I feel, is a bond.
310
00:21:38,666 --> 00:21:40,825
The solution...
311
00:21:40,826 --> 00:21:42,835
is swords and men.
312
00:21:42,836 --> 00:21:46,025
A permanent bond between
Wessex and Mercia.
313
00:21:46,026 --> 00:21:47,385
A union, Lord.
314
00:21:47,386 --> 00:21:48,885
Swords!
315
00:21:48,886 --> 00:21:51,885
How many times do I need to say it?!
316
00:21:51,886 --> 00:21:54,845
How many times am I to be ignored?!
317
00:21:54,846 --> 00:21:56,905
Lord Ceolwulf, you have read my letters?
318
00:21:59,346 --> 00:22:00,655
Lord Ceolwulf?
319
00:22:00,656 --> 00:22:03,235
Yes, of course I have read your letters.
320
00:22:06,186 --> 00:22:08,345
You're looking for a buck!
321
00:22:08,346 --> 00:22:09,605
A match, Lord.
322
00:22:09,606 --> 00:22:12,095
And I have a name for you right here...
323
00:22:13,826 --> 00:22:15,845
in a letter of my own.
324
00:22:15,846 --> 00:22:17,995
A good man, godly man.
325
00:22:17,996 --> 00:22:20,155
Mercian stock,
326
00:22:20,156 --> 00:22:22,735
like the lady Aelswith.
327
00:22:24,656 --> 00:22:27,185
But what guarantee do I have...
328
00:22:28,546 --> 00:22:32,345
that Mercia will not become
a mere appendage of Wessex?
329
00:22:33,796 --> 00:22:35,675
A poor cousin?
330
00:22:35,676 --> 00:22:37,265
We are a kingdom.
331
00:22:37,266 --> 00:22:39,515
Lord, your first concern
should be that you do not become
332
00:22:39,516 --> 00:22:41,155
an appendage to Daneland.
333
00:22:41,156 --> 00:22:47,435
And who was it agreed to
this thing called Daneland?!
334
00:22:47,436 --> 00:22:48,895
It was you.
335
00:22:50,486 --> 00:22:53,625
It was Alfred,
336
00:22:53,626 --> 00:22:58,505
and now it is Mercia that suffers most.
337
00:22:58,506 --> 00:23:00,482
- Swords you demand, Lord.
- I do.
338
00:23:00,483 --> 00:23:02,180
- And swords you shall have.
- How many?
339
00:23:02,215 --> 00:23:04,695
Wessex could never
turn away from Mercia.
340
00:23:04,696 --> 00:23:08,255
It would be akin to Alfred
turning away from Aelswith.
341
00:23:09,566 --> 00:23:12,335
It could never occur,
Lord Ceolwulf. Never.
342
00:23:12,336 --> 00:23:13,455
What is this?
343
00:23:14,816 --> 00:23:20,165
Each time I talk of swords
and spears and yet you insist
344
00:23:20,166 --> 00:23:22,415
on speaking of unions...
345
00:23:23,956 --> 00:23:25,365
and of ki...
346
00:23:27,846 --> 00:23:30,565
A cup of water for Lord Ceolwulf.
347
00:23:30,566 --> 00:23:32,255
A cup of water?

I believe the King of Wessex...
542
00:43:37,852 --> 00:43:39,401
cares for you.
543
00:43:42,492 --> 00:43:45,681
You're Uhtred's brother?
544
00:43:45,682 --> 00:43:47,321
I am.
545
00:43:47,322 --> 00:43:49,851
You look nothing like each other.
546
00:43:49,852 --> 00:43:51,781
[CHUCKLING]
547
00:43:53,792 --> 00:43:55,341
Uhtred, you should eat.
548
00:43:59,562 --> 00:44:01,251
Finan.
549
00:44:01,252 --> 00:44:06,311
Oh, we will eat, Lady, but our
tummies are small and our feet
550
00:44:06,312 --> 00:44:09,261
have barely touched dry land.
551
00:44:09,262 --> 00:44:11,331
It'll take a little time to find them.
552
00:44:13,152 --> 00:44:15,501
Are you his brother?
553
00:44:15,502 --> 00:44:16,861
We are...
554
00:44:20,192 --> 00:44:22,901
We are bound, I would say.
555
00:45:17,712 --> 00:45:18,881
Up.
556
00:45:18,882 --> 00:45:21,031
You've been asleep for a day or more.
557
00:45:23,892 --> 00:45:25,581
I can do it.
558
00:45:32,752 --> 00:45:34,351
[HE SIGHS DEEPLY]
559
00:45:44,242 --> 00:45:45,831
Take off your clothes.
560
00:46:50,712 --> 00:46:53,481
You have not looked me in the eye,
561
00:46:53,482 --> 00:46:54,741
not once.
562
00:46:57,892 --> 00:47:00,001
I am ashamed of what I became.
563
00:47:26,532 --> 00:47:29,251
You are Uhtred, son of Uhtred.
564
00:47:29,252 --> 00:47:30,651
Lord of Bebbanburg.
565
00:47:32,152 --> 00:47:34,081
It's time you remembered that.
566
00:47:37,452 --> 00:47:39,801
You kept the blade sharp.
567
00:47:39,802 --> 00:47:41,251
I knew you'd return.
568
00:47:49,502 --> 00:47:51,751
She is heavier than I remember.
569
00:47:55,552 --> 00:47:57,611
How did Alfred come to know of my fate?
570
00:47:59,302 --> 00:48:00,521
You?
571
00:48:02,482 --> 00:48:03,891
I will not forget.
572
00:48:08,112 --> 00:48:11,201
You will always have my protection.
573
00:48:11,202 --> 00:48:12,801
I could not ask for more.
574
00:48:14,302 --> 00:48:15,421
And this...
575
00:48:17,632 --> 00:48:19,081
This is my gift to you.
576
00:48:28,462 --> 00:48:29,721
Protection.
577
00:48:44,252 --> 00:48:46,641
You are too good a woman for God alone.
578
00:48:50,582 --> 00:48:52,361
Uhtred, it IS you.
579
00:49:13,692 --> 00:49:15,521
The apples are beginning
to fall without...
580
00:49:15,522 --> 00:49:17,021
- Shh...
- picking.
581
00:49:24,242 --> 00:49:27,991
Here we are, Brothers, God's gift.
582
00:49:27,992 --> 00:49:30,051
Thank you, Mother, most generous.
583
00:49:30,052 --> 00:49:32,491
You have been to Cumbraland, you say?
584
00:49:32,492 --> 00:49:34,131
We have, and without luck.
585
00:49:36,342 --> 00:49:39,061
And you've had no strangers
calling to your door, Mother?
586
00:49:39,062 --> 00:49:43,881
Strangers, yes, traders
and wretches, but no ladies.
587
00:49:48,852 --> 00:49:50,071
Hmm.
588
00:49:57,292 --> 00:49:58,881
You have an appetite, Lord.
589
00:49:58,882 --> 00:50:01,371
Mmm. I do.
590
00:50:01,372 --> 00:50:02,591
It's good.
591
00:50:04,462 --> 00:50:05,591
I'm pleased.
592
00:50:09,432 --> 00:50:10,651
Alfred waits...
593
00:50:12,152 --> 00:50:13,281
for your return.
594
00:50:16,232 --> 00:50:18,151
We have business here, Steapa.
595
00:50:19,702 --> 00:50:22,771
- In the north.
- I gave my word we go to Wessex.
596
00:50:23,962 --> 00:50:25,931
But we're here, now.
597
00:50:25,932 --> 00:50:29,261
I gave my word. We
go directly to Wessex.
598
00:50:29,262 --> 00:50:31,001
Kjartan can wait, and Thyra...
599
00:50:32,592 --> 00:50:34,331
must wait.
600
00:50:34,332 --> 00:50:35,591
And Gisela?
601
00:50:37,612 --> 00:50:39,441
What of her?
602
00:50:39,442 --> 00:50:40,511
She's safe.
603
00:50:41,782 --> 00:50:44,831
She waits for you at
the nunnery at Ebchester.
604
00:51:08,316 --> 00:51:09,765
- No.
- Seize her!
605
00:51:09,766 --> 00:51:11,545
No. No!
606
00:51:15,816 --> 00:51:18,115
No, I will not! No!
607
00:51:18,116 --> 00:51:20,735
Hold her! Hold her fast.
608
00:51:20,736 --> 00:51:23,225
Stand beside her and we
shall have her married.
609
00:51:23,226 --> 00:51:24,295
You have no right!
610
00:51:24,296 --> 00:51:27,485
I have every right,
and you will be quiet.
611
00:51:27,486 --> 00:51:30,395
Aelfric's man, stand beside her.
612
00:51:30,396 --> 00:51:32,835
We shall have her married
to Aelfric right now.
613
00:51:32,836 --> 00:51:33,955
Without a husband, Lord?
614
00:51:33,956 --> 00:51:36,485
I will not marry against
my will! You cannot...
615
00:51:36,486 --> 00:51:38,225
Do not strike the poor girl!
616
00:51:38,226 --> 00:51:41,085
Do as you're told and as God commands!
617
00:51:41,086 --> 00:51:43,195
Beside her, as proxy.
618
00:51:43,196 --> 00:51:45,535
You'll stand in for Lord Aelfric.
619
00:51:48,486 --> 00:51:53,035
We shall dispense with the joining
of hands. You may take her arm.
620
00:51:57,396 --> 00:51:59,925
I will not be party to this.
621
00:51:59,926 --> 00:52:01,245
I will not marry...
622
00:52:01,246 --> 00:52:03,305
And we shall dispense with the vows.
623
00:52:06,446 --> 00:52:08,175
[HORSES APPROACH]
624
00:52:16,806 --> 00:52:20,605
I hereby proclaim Lady Gisela
of Cumbraland and Lord Aelfric
625
00:52:20,606 --> 00:52:22,475
of Bebbanburg to be man and wife.
626
00:52:22,476 --> 00:52:23,975
- Gisela!
- Uhtred?
627
00:52:25,386 --> 00:52:26,695
Uhtred, I'm here!
628
00:52:29,226 --> 00:52:31,385
- Uhtred.
- You will let her go.
629
00:52:31,386 --> 00:52:34,005
- You are too late.
- You will let her go.
630
00:52:34,006 --> 00:52:36,165
She is married now.
She belongs to Aelfric.
631
00:52:36,166 --> 00:52:38,975
- It is a lie, Uhtred.
- Where is Aelfric?
632
00:52:38,976 --> 00:52:40,805
If he is not here, then
he cannot be married.
633
00:52:40,806 --> 00:52:43,245
By proxy, you fool.
634
00:52:43,246 --> 00:52:45,965
This man stood beside
her in place of Aelfric.
635
00:52:45,966 --> 00:52:48,405
Uhtred, in the eyes
of God, she is married.
636
00:52:48,406 --> 00:52:49,855
Did you hump her for Aelfric?
637
00:52:49,856 --> 00:52:52,295
- He did not.
- Then there's no marriage, it's a lie.
638
00:52:52,296 --> 00:52:55,335
She is married and it cannot be undone.
639
00:52:55,336 --> 00:52:57,685
- Make her a widow.
- No!
640
00:52:57,686 --> 00:53:00,125
Gisela is married to
Aelfric. Not to Aidan.
641
00:53:00,126 --> 00:53:03,165
I have a wife already. A different wife.
642
00:53:03,166 --> 00:53:05,515
Uhtred, I'm bored with this.
643
00:53:05,516 --> 00:53:06,825
Kill them all.
644
00:53:22,906 --> 00:53:26,275
Do as you wish. In sight
of God, she's married.
645
00:53:26,276 --> 00:53:28,485
Say "she's married" again.
646
00:53:28,486 --> 00:53:29,705
She's married.
647
00:53:32,846 --> 00:53:35,795
- She's what?
- She is married.
648
00:53:35,796 --> 00:53:36,875
Uhtred!
649
00:53:36,876 --> 00:53:38,515
- Is she married?
- Yes!
650
00:53:40,206 --> 00:53:41,605
He is a man of God!
651
00:53:41,606 --> 00:53:44,985
Say it one more time, priest, and
I swear the devil will take you.
652
00:53:44,986 --> 00:53:48,735
You're nothing but a heathen
and the bitch is married!
653
00:54:08,566 --> 00:54:09,685
You!
654
00:54:13,766 --> 00:54:15,125
You will go to my uncle...
655
00:54:16,766 --> 00:54:19,625
and when he asks of his wife,
656
00:54:19,626 --> 00:54:22,815
you will tell him she's in the
bed of Uhtred of Bebbanburg.
657
00:54:40,934 --> 00:54:45,132
_
658
00:54:45,316 --> 00:54:47,055
I trust you are in health.
659
00:54:48,226 --> 00:54:50,095
I improve with each passing day.
660
00:54:52,486 --> 00:54:54,505
- And you, Lord?
- God afflicts me.
661
00:54:55,586 --> 00:54:58,395
But there is purpose in
that, so I must be glad of it.
662
00:55:00,696 --> 00:55:02,845
Earl Ragnar, he is a good man.
663
00:55:04,166 --> 00:55:06,415
I should like to free
both him and Brida.
664
00:55:08,846 --> 00:55:09,975
Thank you, Lord...
665
00:55:11,056 --> 00:55:14,055
- for all you have done.
- What do you think of my candles?
666
00:55:16,496 --> 00:55:18,925
I find them to be more
effective at night.
667
00:55:22,026 --> 00:55:24,415
I have missed your childish insolence.
668
00:55:25,916 --> 00:55:27,925
I'm trying to measure
the passing of time.
669
00:55:27,926 --> 00:55:32,285
I'm hoping to find a candle
that burns from midday to midday.
670
00:55:35,426 --> 00:55:37,775
Lord, why did you have me rescued?
671
00:55:37,776 --> 00:55:40,255
- Why have you brought me here?
- I had you rescued firstly because
672
00:55:40,256 --> 00:55:43,725
I was able, and secondly, because
it is no more than you deserved.
673
00:55:45,366 --> 00:55:49,075
Though I admit, I would like
you in my service once again.
674
00:55:54,416 --> 00:55:56,715
I am grateful, of course...
675
00:55:59,156 --> 00:56:01,165
but I have my own path to follow.
676
00:56:01,166 --> 00:56:02,805
- Destiny.
- Destiny, Lord.
677
00:56:05,526 --> 00:56:07,305
You killed the Abbot Eadred.
678
00:56:09,836 --> 00:56:13,265
According to the words of
Brother Trew and others.
679
00:56:13,266 --> 00:56:14,335
He was a weasel, Lord.
680
00:56:14,336 --> 00:56:16,414
A weasel without a sword, a holy weasel.
681
00:56:16,415 --> 00:56:17,615
Who deserved to die.
682
00:56:17,626 --> 00:56:19,545
You killed him on blessed ground.
683
00:56:19,546 --> 00:56:20,765
He was an abbot.
684
00:56:22,636 --> 00:56:24,795
However, you were in the
company of Earl Ragnar,
685
00:56:24,796 --> 00:56:27,655
in the charge of Earl Ragnar,
who was under my orders and whom
686
00:56:27,656 --> 00:56:31,265
I hold responsible for the
killing of Abbot Eadred.
687
00:56:31,266 --> 00:56:32,995
No.
688
00:56:32,996 --> 00:56:34,685
No, Lord, it was me and me alone.
689
00:56:34,686 --> 00:56:35,905
Why did he not stop you?
690
00:56:35,906 --> 00:56:38,015
Lord, you cannot blame
Ragnar for the Abbot's death.
691
00:56:38,016 --> 00:56:39,275
Yes, I can, and I do...
692
00:56:39,276 --> 00:56:40,992
- That is unfair.
- He will stand trial.
693
00:56:41,027 --> 00:56:42,095
No.
694
00:56:51,706 --> 00:56:53,815
You are a great warrior, Uhtred.
695
00:56:55,496 --> 00:56:57,425
You are a Saxon who is also a Dane,
696
00:56:57,426 --> 00:57:00,375
the very embodiment of the
England that must emerge.
697
00:57:02,816 --> 00:57:05,105
I request that you enter my service.
698
00:57:08,766 --> 00:57:09,985
Lord.
699
00:57:11,206 --> 00:57:12,565
I have been a slave.
700
00:57:14,536 --> 00:57:16,125
I wish to remain a free man.
701
00:57:16,126 --> 00:57:18,705
What is it that you
wish for Earl Ragnar?
702
00:57:18,706 --> 00:57:21,145
- Lord, please.
- A man of God was slaughtered.
703
00:57:21,146 --> 00:57:23,485
That cannot be ignored,
Someone must answer.
704
00:57:23,486 --> 00:57:25,225
It will be you...
705
00:57:25,226 --> 00:57:26,905
or it will be Earl Ragnar.
706
00:57:28,316 --> 00:57:29,835
You may choose.
707
00:57:31,976 --> 00:57:33,475
Your sword, Uhtred.
708
00:57:35,296 --> 00:57:38,395
You can be a free
man, within my service.
709
00:57:38,396 --> 00:57:40,455
Ragnar goes free?
710
00:57:40,456 --> 00:57:41,815
He has earned it.
711
00:57:44,536 --> 00:57:45,845
Swear.
712
00:57:51,516 --> 00:57:52,835
I, Uhtred of Bebban...
713
00:57:52,836 --> 00:57:54,475
It is the custom to kneel.
714
00:58:10,086 --> 00:58:14,915
I, Uhtred of Bebbanburg, pledge
my sword to you, Alfred of Wessex.
