The Making of the English: 4: The Wrath of the Norsemen

BBC One
on BBC One London

A series of six programmes

The Vikings occupy a special place in our minds and history books as bloodthirsty plunderers and pirates. But just as important as their discipline as warriors was their skill as traders and merchants, and their ability as seamen. Ranged together, their influence on Britain appeared for a time to be enormous.
Presented by Prof Barry Cunliffe from the Roskilde Ship Museum and Fyrkat Settlement, Denmark.
With Dr Ole Crumlin-Pedersen, Prof Olaf Olsen, Prof Peter Sawyer
