Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:01,293 --> 00:00:03,842
UHTRED: I am Uhtred, son of Uhtred.
2
00:00:04,379 --> 00:00:07,223
Sigefrid and Erik's army raided our camp
3
00:00:07,341 --> 00:00:09,764
and kidnapped the Lady Aethelflaed.
4
00:00:09,927 --> 00:00:13,056
You took my daughter into battle.
5
00:00:13,180 --> 00:00:17,606
UHTRED: To learn her fate,
I sent my loyal men, Rypere and Sihtric,
6
00:00:17,726 --> 00:00:19,694
to Beamfleot as spies.
7
00:00:19,811 --> 00:00:23,782
I swear that this prize
will not be sold cheaply.
8
00:00:23,899 --> 00:00:24,946
(CHEERING)
9
00:00:25,067 --> 00:00:28,822
Wessex shall pay its share of silver
and if necessary its share of blood.
10
00:00:28,946 --> 00:00:30,414
I will do what needs to be done.
11
00:00:30,531 --> 00:00:33,410
What's your opinion
on paying a ransom for Aethelflaed?
12
00:00:33,534 --> 00:00:35,457
Not one I am prepared to say aloud.
13
00:00:35,577 --> 00:00:37,124
I may need you.
14
00:00:37,454 --> 00:00:40,207
UHTRED: Alfred sent us
to negotiate the ransom,
15
00:00:40,332 --> 00:00:44,132
but secretly Aethelflaed and Erik
had fallen in love.
16
00:00:44,253 --> 00:00:45,880
Your husband's a fortunate man.
17
00:00:47,089 --> 00:00:48,341
(GASPS)
18
00:00:48,507 --> 00:00:50,976
He is not the man
I would choose to be with.
19
00:00:51,885 --> 00:00:53,558
I cannot let her go.
20
00:00:54,346 --> 00:00:57,520
I will leave this place with Erik
or I will not leave at all.
21
00:00:57,641 --> 00:01:00,440
Will you help me, please?
22
00:01:01,144 --> 00:01:02,987
UHTRED: Destiny is all.
23
00:01:47,608 --> 00:01:50,487
PYRLIG: What binds a man to a land?
24
00:01:50,611 --> 00:01:53,285
You have a poor wretch,
toiling in the fields.
25
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:57,410
Burning in summer, shivering in winter.
26
00:01:57,534 --> 00:01:59,502
He works all day every day
27
00:01:59,620 --> 00:02:02,874
for nothing more than a loaf of bread
and a pot to piss in.
28
00:02:04,041 --> 00:02:07,921
His children die of disease,
his wife dies giving him children.
29
00:02:08,420 --> 00:02:13,597
Yet when that land is threatened,
something stirs. Why?
30
00:02:13,717 --> 00:02:16,596
It is the land that feeds him.
31
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,063
More than that.
32
00:02:19,222 --> 00:02:22,943
That the trees off the land
are used for shelter, fire.
33
00:02:23,060 --> 00:02:24,437
More than that.
34
00:02:25,395 --> 00:02:27,272
Is it love, Father?
35
00:02:27,397 --> 00:02:31,743
Oh, for the Lord's sake,
can you not remain quiet?
36
00:02:31,860 --> 00:02:35,080
But, yes, the bastard has it.
37
00:02:35,238 --> 00:02:36,911
It can only be love.
38
00:02:38,283 --> 00:02:41,833
It is a powerful thing.
Would you not agree, Lord Uhtred?
39
00:02:44,331 --> 00:02:45,674
From wretch to warrior,
40
00:02:45,791 --> 00:02:51,013
love gives a man strength,
often at the cost of his mind.
41
00:02:59,471 --> 00:03:00,518
How much?
42
00:03:02,057 --> 00:03:04,185
It's not a small amount, Lord.
43
00:03:05,686 --> 00:03:09,190
Three thousand pounds' weight of silver
and 500 pounds' weight of gold.
44
00:03:10,357 --> 00:03:12,906
The first of the metal is to be
delivered by the next full moon,
45
00:03:13,026 --> 00:03:14,778
the remaining amount one month later.
46
00:03:14,903 --> 00:03:17,702
- That is an impossible amount.
- An absurd amount.
47
00:03:17,823 --> 00:03:20,201
- That is the best price?
- It is, lord.
48
00:03:20,325 --> 00:03:22,578
It is less than half
their first demand, lord.
49
00:03:22,703 --> 00:03:24,797
What it is
is the entire wealth of Wessex.
50
00:03:24,955 --> 00:03:29,131
What it would buy is an army
to ensure the end of Wessex and Mercia.
51
00:03:29,292 --> 00:03:30,418
Without the money...
52
00:03:32,963 --> 00:03:34,965
what will happen to my daughter?
53
00:03:36,925 --> 00:03:39,348
She's too valuable to simply kill, lord.
54
00:03:39,511 --> 00:03:41,809
It would be humiliation.
55
00:03:41,930 --> 00:03:45,104
She will be taken
to every town where Danes rule.
56
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:48,149
She will be paraded
before mocking crowds.
57
00:03:49,604 --> 00:03:51,982
And men would pay to take their turn.
58
00:04:12,085 --> 00:04:16,636
It is not just the life and reputation
of my daughter at stake here.
59
00:04:18,592 --> 00:04:20,640
It is the dignity of Wessex.
60
00:04:20,761 --> 00:04:25,642
So many thousands of men must die, lord,
for the dignity of Wessex?
61
00:04:25,766 --> 00:04:27,143
Yes, Odda.
62
00:04:28,310 --> 00:04:30,813
A country is its history,
the sum of all its stories.
63
00:04:30,937 --> 00:04:32,939
We are what our fathers made us.
64
00:04:33,648 --> 00:04:36,572
Would you have me leave my descendants
the shameful tale
65
00:04:36,693 --> 00:04:41,620
of how a princess of Wessex
was whored to the highest bidder?
66
00:04:41,740 --> 00:04:44,539
AELSWITH: That is a tale
that would overshadow all others.
67
00:04:45,535 --> 00:04:48,209
The battle of Ethandun
would become insignificant.
68
00:04:48,413 --> 00:04:53,419
But, lord, if we pay this ransom,
I do not see how there will be a Wessex.
69
00:04:53,585 --> 00:04:55,553
The tale they tell will be of the king
70
00:04:55,712 --> 00:04:57,680
who paid for the very army
that destroyed him.
71
00:04:57,798 --> 00:05:01,348
- God would not allow that to happen.
- It's not God we are dealing with.
72
00:05:01,468 --> 00:05:03,095
It is the Northmen, the Danes!
73
00:05:03,220 --> 00:05:06,190
Non-believers,
over whom we will triumph.
74
00:05:06,348 --> 00:05:09,522
Should a great battle come of this,
we shall have men enough to face them.
75
00:05:09,643 --> 00:05:11,896
I expect the fyrd of Mercia
to be at our side.
76
00:05:12,020 --> 00:05:13,863
Shall be there, lord.
77
00:05:13,980 --> 00:05:15,778
The metal will be paid in full.
78
00:05:15,899 --> 00:05:19,779
My daughter will be spared
and Wessex shall avoid indignity.
79
00:05:19,903 --> 00:05:21,576
But not the slaughter.
80
00:05:22,531 --> 00:05:26,661
Odda, I hear your doubts
and I ask you to renew your faith.
81
00:05:30,038 --> 00:05:31,335
Yes, lord.
82
00:05:32,415 --> 00:05:36,045
Aethelred, you will join Father Beocca
and I before returning to Mercia.
83
00:05:36,169 --> 00:05:39,093
We must decide how best
to gather the ransom.
84
00:05:39,214 --> 00:05:40,887
Yes, lord.
85
00:05:46,429 --> 00:05:48,602
This cannot be how it ends.
86
00:05:48,723 --> 00:05:51,476
Lord, you have said all you can say.
87
00:05:51,601 --> 00:05:52,648
And bravely.
88
00:05:52,769 --> 00:05:57,650
There's nothing more for you to do,
so I beg you... do nothing.
89
00:06:21,256 --> 00:06:22,303
Lord.
90
00:06:31,182 --> 00:06:32,229
Lord.
91
00:06:33,852 --> 00:06:35,604
Dagfinn, you can go.
92
00:06:37,856 --> 00:06:40,405
- All of you.
- Yes, lord.
93
00:06:41,651 --> 00:06:42,698
Do you have it?
94
00:06:46,531 --> 00:06:49,535
- Is that enough?
- Yes.
95
00:06:52,787 --> 00:06:53,788
Uhtred can read?
96
00:06:53,914 --> 00:06:57,418
All of my father's ealdormen
can read and write.
97
00:06:57,542 --> 00:07:00,887
Although the letters Uhtred has written
you could count with one finger.
98
00:07:01,004 --> 00:07:02,927
Hm.
99
00:07:04,591 --> 00:07:06,013
I will teach you.
100
00:07:08,511 --> 00:07:10,809
What is to prevent him
from doing nothing?
101
00:07:10,931 --> 00:07:16,188
We are asking him to risk everything
for no reward. Why should he come?
102
00:07:16,353 --> 00:07:18,572
It is Uhtred.
103
00:07:18,688 --> 00:07:21,737
He will come. I swear.
104
00:07:31,785 --> 00:07:33,708
He is with her? Again?
105
00:07:33,828 --> 00:07:36,581
- He is.
- He cannot keep away from her.
106
00:07:37,082 --> 00:07:39,676
Let us hope he does not take her
for his wife.
107
00:07:41,211 --> 00:07:43,555
Or else our fortune is lost.
108
00:07:43,672 --> 00:07:45,674
GUARD: Is this true, huh?
109
00:07:55,016 --> 00:07:57,314
Sigefrid!
110
00:07:57,936 --> 00:07:58,983
Which woman is mine?
111
00:07:59,145 --> 00:08:01,819
The ugly one. (CHUCKLES)
112
00:08:02,524 --> 00:08:04,026
We walked them for miles.
113
00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:08,121
See they are fed and watered,
horses and slaves.
114
00:08:08,238 --> 00:08:09,490
(BOTH LAUGH)
115
00:08:16,621 --> 00:08:18,373
ERIK: You are called Sihtric?
116
00:08:20,250 --> 00:08:22,753
Yes, lord. Good evening to you, lord.
117
00:08:24,504 --> 00:08:26,256
Uhtred says you can be trusted.
118
00:08:27,549 --> 00:08:30,018
So you will take him this letter.
119
00:08:38,018 --> 00:08:40,191
This is a great responsibility.
120
00:08:50,947 --> 00:08:53,200
GISELA: They will have no peace.
121
00:08:54,284 --> 00:08:55,627
None.
122
00:08:57,996 --> 00:09:00,465
I have told them the same.
123
00:09:01,332 --> 00:09:03,050
But you will still help them?
124
00:09:03,168 --> 00:09:06,012
I must. I have no choice.
125
00:09:06,129 --> 00:09:09,554
If they escape,
then there will be no ransom paid.
126
00:09:09,674 --> 00:09:10,721
No great army.
127
00:09:10,842 --> 00:09:15,313
The men of Wessex are saved, yes.
128
00:09:15,430 --> 00:09:19,310
But what becomes of you? Of us?
129
00:09:19,476 --> 00:09:22,355
Alfred will see it as a betrayal.
130
00:09:22,562 --> 00:09:24,906
You will have broken your oath.
131
00:09:26,399 --> 00:09:27,696
We leave.
132
00:09:30,111 --> 00:09:35,163
Tomorrow I will make a sacrifice,
to keep you safe.
133
00:09:36,993 --> 00:09:38,620
All of us.
134
00:09:46,961 --> 00:09:49,714
BEOCCA: You give your name
to the scribe.
135
00:09:49,839 --> 00:09:53,514
The sum of your contribution
will be written beside your name.
136
00:09:54,302 --> 00:09:56,646
We're helping to free
the Lady Aethelflaed.
137
00:09:56,763 --> 00:09:58,436
MAN: We've got nothing to give!
138
00:09:58,973 --> 00:10:02,227
Any man or woman found to be
hiding the value of their wealth
139
00:10:02,352 --> 00:10:03,979
shall be punished!
140
00:10:04,896 --> 00:10:07,240
All must pay their share.
141
00:10:08,983 --> 00:10:13,534
You have the gratitude
of the king, of God.
142
00:10:23,790 --> 00:10:25,838
Lord.
143
00:10:25,959 --> 00:10:27,677
News, lord.
144
00:10:28,503 --> 00:10:30,301
Speak.
145
00:10:30,421 --> 00:10:33,846
Say to the king
exactly what you said to me. Exactly.
146
00:10:40,056 --> 00:10:41,808
Lord, this man is from Canterbury.
147
00:10:42,517 --> 00:10:45,236
The Northmen at Beamfleot
are now crossing the river
148
00:10:45,353 --> 00:10:47,105
and raiding directly into Wessex.
149
00:10:47,230 --> 00:10:52,657
They have taken my wife and daughters,
lord, the youngest just eight years.
150
00:10:52,777 --> 00:10:57,453
While we do nothing, lord,
but gather halfpennies from the poor.
151
00:10:59,659 --> 00:11:01,912
Father, you will take this man away.
152
00:11:02,036 --> 00:11:04,164
Feed him and give him rest at an inn.
153
00:11:09,377 --> 00:11:12,051
Odda, what is it you want?
154
00:11:12,172 --> 00:11:14,015
Lord, he is just one man,
155
00:11:14,174 --> 00:11:16,848
but he has lost two brothers
at Ethandun,
156
00:11:16,968 --> 00:11:19,596
two daughters and a wife
to the Northmen,
157
00:11:19,762 --> 00:11:21,480
and yet guards will knock at his door
158
00:11:21,598 --> 00:11:23,396
and demand one third
of the little he has,
159
00:11:23,558 --> 00:11:26,311
all to help preserve
the dignity of Wessex.
160
00:11:26,436 --> 00:11:28,859
This insolence is too much.
161
00:11:28,980 --> 00:11:32,701
Then in six months' time
we shall ask for his life.
162
00:11:34,235 --> 00:11:37,580
What I want, Lord,
is for good sense to prevail.
163
00:11:37,739 --> 00:11:42,495
By good sense I presume you mean
the death or humiliation of my daughter
164
00:11:42,619 --> 00:11:44,087
and of the reputation of Wessex.
165
00:11:44,204 --> 00:11:46,457
Or we march, lord, and we fight.
166
00:11:46,581 --> 00:11:48,879
If we march, they will kill her.
167
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,756
And she will be considered a martyr,
for Wessex, lord, her dignity preserved!
168
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,975
And you would still have
the Prince Edward. Your line is intact.
169
00:12:03,723 --> 00:12:06,943
Odda, what has saved you
from outright banishment
170
00:12:07,060 --> 00:12:09,233
is that you chose your king
over your own son.
171
00:12:09,354 --> 00:12:12,733
- Lord, I chose Wessex over my son.
- A traitor!
172
00:12:12,857 --> 00:12:15,952
You should at least consider
doing the same.
173
00:12:22,617 --> 00:12:24,585
What am I to do with you?
174
00:12:29,415 --> 00:12:35,468
Your injury and your appetite for wine
have robbed us both of your worth.
175
00:12:40,009 --> 00:12:42,228
You no longer serve a purpose.
176
00:12:46,140 --> 00:12:48,359
Then with your permission, lord,
177
00:12:48,476 --> 00:12:52,572
I shall return to my estate
and my wife at Devonshire,
178
00:12:52,689 --> 00:12:56,284
whilst it is still a Saxon estate.
179
00:12:58,027 --> 00:12:59,870
That would be for the best.
180
00:13:01,948 --> 00:13:04,827
Should you be needed
you will be sent for.
181
00:13:45,867 --> 00:13:47,915
(CREAKING)
182
00:14:00,340 --> 00:14:03,184
They buy the very swords
that will slay them.
183
00:14:03,301 --> 00:14:05,178
(FOOTSTEPS)
184
00:14:09,057 --> 00:14:10,274
Lord, good evening.
185
00:14:15,855 --> 00:14:18,074
I am a moth to the flame.
186
00:14:19,859 --> 00:14:22,157
Yes, it is becoming
a significant amount.
187
00:14:22,278 --> 00:14:26,033
Significant is the word, lord,
in its size and its effect.
188
00:14:28,493 --> 00:14:30,416
- Your father...
- The king?
189
00:14:34,082 --> 00:14:35,425
He would have done the same.
190
00:14:36,918 --> 00:14:39,888
Pay such a ransom
for his offspring, lord? I doubt it.
191
00:14:40,671 --> 00:14:42,673
I was a great disappointment to him...
192
00:14:44,133 --> 00:14:45,635
which I regret.
193
00:14:46,636 --> 00:14:51,016
But if you were not a disappointment,
Aethelwold, I may have had you killed.
194
00:14:52,350 --> 00:14:54,318
For the good of Wessex.
195
00:14:55,478 --> 00:15:00,109
Never doubt it.
Every decision I make is for my country.
196
00:15:01,901 --> 00:15:03,403
Yes, lord.
197
00:15:05,196 --> 00:15:07,665
I understand completely.
198
00:15:31,722 --> 00:15:33,099
Lord Odda.
199
00:15:34,684 --> 00:15:37,278
You will set tongues wagging,
drinking with the peasants.
200
00:15:37,395 --> 00:15:39,944
Let them wag if it please them.
201
00:15:41,607 --> 00:15:44,781
You asked me some days ago if I agree
with the payment of a ransom.
202
00:15:49,449 --> 00:15:50,871
I do not.
203
00:15:53,995 --> 00:15:58,501
If I had an army to call upon,
a fyrd to raise,
204
00:15:58,624 --> 00:16:00,251
I would prove it.
205
00:16:03,254 --> 00:16:05,382
But I have not.
206
00:16:19,812 --> 00:16:21,689
I appear to have joined you, lord.
207
00:16:32,492 --> 00:16:34,995
He's been there for part of the day
and all of the night.
208
00:16:35,119 --> 00:16:37,668
He's a good man and I worry
that it will damage his reputation.
209
00:16:37,788 --> 00:16:40,712
If he can stand
it can only enhance his reputation.
210
00:16:42,001 --> 00:16:43,093
UHTRED: Lord.
211
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,297
May we join you?
212
00:16:47,548 --> 00:16:49,926
Is he here still or has he already left?
213
00:16:50,927 --> 00:16:52,395
Aethelwold.
214
00:16:52,512 --> 00:16:54,810
Um... No, he is long gone, lord.
215
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:04,236
- Perhaps you have drunk enough, lord.
- It is entirely possible.
216
00:17:04,357 --> 00:17:08,988
Though the ale they brew here is weak,
upon the orders of Alfred.
217
00:17:09,111 --> 00:17:10,909
(CHUCKLES) You're joking, lord.
218
00:17:11,948 --> 00:17:14,701
- What, that's true?
- It is, yes.
219
00:17:15,660 --> 00:17:19,585
It is so a man can work the next day
220
00:17:19,705 --> 00:17:23,175
and swords remain in scabbards.
221
00:17:27,129 --> 00:17:29,427
But they must not.
222
00:17:35,930 --> 00:17:38,149
Somebody needs a bed.
223
00:17:41,310 --> 00:17:43,779
- You will stay with him.
- And do what?
224
00:17:43,896 --> 00:17:46,365
If he needs to piss or spew,
you'll fetch him a bucket.
225
00:17:46,482 --> 00:17:50,703
I have a plan,
though it is likely I will die.
226
00:17:52,572 --> 00:17:54,870
What is this plan, lord? Tell me.
227
00:17:57,535 --> 00:18:00,209
I will raise the Devonshire fyrd.
228
00:18:00,788 --> 00:18:02,540
Against the king's wishes, lord?
229
00:18:04,166 --> 00:18:06,635
That is not something he would forgive.
230
00:18:07,211 --> 00:18:08,588
Lord!
231
00:18:09,505 --> 00:18:10,848
(BREATHES HEAVILY)
232
00:18:14,218 --> 00:18:15,811
UHTRED: He will go nowhere.
233
00:18:16,804 --> 00:18:20,229
And you will go nowhere and you will say
nothing about what you've just heard.
234
00:18:20,349 --> 00:18:22,693
- Yes, lord.
- You mean, "No, lord."
235
00:18:24,937 --> 00:18:26,484
- I'll...
- Do as I say.
236
00:19:02,058 --> 00:19:03,651
(GROANS)
237
00:19:04,977 --> 00:19:06,570
(COCK CROWS)
238
00:19:21,535 --> 00:19:24,288
So... what does it say?
239
00:19:24,413 --> 00:19:26,541
Erik has enough oath-men to crew a ship.
240
00:19:27,041 --> 00:19:29,544
Three nights before the first
of the metal is to be delivered,
241
00:19:29,669 --> 00:19:32,092
we make our way downriver to Beamfleot.
242
00:19:32,254 --> 00:19:34,723
We kill the men
who stand guard over the ships.
243
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,184
Erik and Aethelflaed sail away.
244
00:19:37,301 --> 00:19:38,427
And Wessex is saved.
245
00:19:38,552 --> 00:19:41,476
- How many guards?
- Eight or ten, on the shore.
246
00:19:41,597 --> 00:19:43,019
- That is all?
- Yes.
247
00:19:43,182 --> 00:19:45,276
- It's as simple as that?
- Erik is in command.
248
00:19:45,393 --> 00:19:48,488
His men guard Aethelflaed,
his ship is ready and waiting.
249
00:19:49,605 --> 00:19:52,074
It begins as simple.
What happens is fate.
250
00:19:52,233 --> 00:19:54,577
Why go by river and not horseback?
251
00:19:55,403 --> 00:19:57,656
If we go with the tides it'll be faster,
252
00:19:57,780 --> 00:19:59,407
and to escape we row across river.
253
00:19:59,532 --> 00:20:01,250
They will follow you.
254
00:20:01,909 --> 00:20:04,537
They will follow Aethelflaed.
255
00:20:04,662 --> 00:20:06,835
She's the silver.
256
00:20:24,432 --> 00:20:25,729
Father Pyrlig.
257
00:20:25,850 --> 00:20:29,605
Lord, you came from nowhere,
like the devil himself.
258
00:20:29,729 --> 00:20:31,481
You are leaving us?
259
00:20:31,605 --> 00:20:35,235
I am. I've invited myself to Devonshire
with the Lord Odda.
260
00:20:36,235 --> 00:20:39,455
I'm looking forward to cooling my feet
in the blue waters of the sea.
261
00:20:39,572 --> 00:20:40,994
You're spying for Alfred.
262
00:20:41,115 --> 00:20:44,415
Of course I'm spying for Alfred.
I despise the sea.
263
00:20:46,704 --> 00:20:52,382
Should Odda decide to do anything rash,
you will tell him to hold fast?
264
00:20:52,501 --> 00:20:54,879
And why should he listen to me?
265
00:20:55,004 --> 00:20:57,052
Do you have a reason
you would like to share?
266
00:20:59,759 --> 00:21:01,056
(SOFTLY) And he's behind you.
267
00:21:03,387 --> 00:21:04,434
Lord.
268
00:21:04,555 --> 00:21:06,057
Did you sleep well?
269
00:21:06,182 --> 00:21:09,937
Uhtred. I did, soundly.
270
00:21:10,060 --> 00:21:12,563
Though I'm not sure how I found my bed.
271
00:21:12,730 --> 00:21:16,860
You were a little worse for ale, lord,
but no bother.
272
00:21:16,984 --> 00:21:19,487
- I'm glad to hear it.
- (CLEARS THROAT)
273
00:21:19,612 --> 00:21:20,784
You spoke of a plan.
274
00:21:23,824 --> 00:21:25,576
- I did?
- Mm-hm.
275
00:21:26,577 --> 00:21:27,999
Am I to be reminded?
276
00:21:29,663 --> 00:21:31,290
The men of Devonshire.
277
00:21:32,166 --> 00:21:34,134
They should remain in the fields.
278
00:21:36,045 --> 00:21:37,797
I must have been very drunk.
279
00:21:38,339 --> 00:21:40,842
- It can be the only explanation, lord.
- Yes.
280
00:21:41,884 --> 00:21:43,010
You swear?
281
00:21:44,220 --> 00:21:45,813
On my life.
282
00:21:45,971 --> 00:21:48,065
I have no memory of it whatsoever.
283
00:21:49,475 --> 00:21:51,898
Lord Odda, I say this to you
as your friend.
284
00:21:53,604 --> 00:21:54,947
Do nothing.
285
00:21:56,941 --> 00:22:00,536
If I do not see you again,
Uhtred of Bebbanburg,
286
00:22:00,694 --> 00:22:02,617
I wish you good luck.
287
00:22:03,489 --> 00:22:05,662
Wherever fate may take you.
288
00:22:06,826 --> 00:22:08,123
Thank you, lord.
289
00:22:29,849 --> 00:22:33,194
Should we pray, lord? Together?
290
00:22:36,105 --> 00:22:38,528
Am I being selfish
291
00:22:38,649 --> 00:22:40,651
in wanting to spare Aethelflaed?
292
00:22:42,486 --> 00:22:47,367
Lord, you were a father
before you were a king.
293
00:22:48,492 --> 00:22:51,041
But your reasons stand.
294
00:22:51,161 --> 00:22:53,289
She is Wessex.
295
00:22:54,373 --> 00:22:58,423
She is the blood, the heart
and the spirit of Wessex.
296
00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:02,423
She cannot be humiliated.
297
00:23:30,826 --> 00:23:31,873
Dagfinn!
298
00:23:33,579 --> 00:23:35,798
Dagfinn. Where is she?
299
00:23:35,915 --> 00:23:36,916
Lord?
300
00:23:37,041 --> 00:23:39,009
Where is she?
301
00:23:51,180 --> 00:23:52,932
SIGEFRID: Now it is clear.
302
00:23:53,807 --> 00:23:56,526
Each man has a right to see her.
303
00:23:57,436 --> 00:24:01,191
And every man will guard her
with his life!
304
00:24:04,610 --> 00:24:06,578
She is our wealth.
305
00:24:06,695 --> 00:24:08,789
She belongs to us all!
306
00:24:08,948 --> 00:24:10,200

307
00:24:25,673 --> 00:24:28,677
Dear God! Who might they be?
308
00:24:28,968 --> 00:24:32,313
They are the Devonshire fyrd,
Father Pyrlig.
309
00:24:36,266 --> 00:24:39,861
You are here as Alfred's spy
and will go no further.
310
00:24:39,979 --> 00:24:43,779
You will get down from your horse and
walk back to Winchester with your news.
311
00:24:44,775 --> 00:24:46,743
What news is that, lord?
What do you mean?
312
00:24:46,860 --> 00:24:51,366
You will tell the king that Odda is
marching against the enemies of Wessex.
313
00:24:51,532 --> 00:24:55,878
He can either march to halt me or march
to join me. It does not matter which.
314
00:24:55,995 --> 00:25:00,091
Once the Northmen at Beamfleot
see an army, a battle will follow.
315
00:25:00,207 --> 00:25:03,507
Please, lord. Think what you are doing.
You are making traitors of your men.
316
00:25:03,627 --> 00:25:06,597
The men you see
are here to die for their king,
317
00:25:06,714 --> 00:25:08,808
not betray him.
318
00:25:08,924 --> 00:25:10,926
They know nothing of Alfred's weakness.
319
00:25:11,051 --> 00:25:14,430
But, Uhtred, lord...
Did he not ask you to do nothing?
320
00:25:14,638 --> 00:25:17,892
You will get down from your horse
and you will return to Winchester.
321
00:25:18,017 --> 00:25:19,519
And if I refuse?
322
00:25:20,436 --> 00:25:23,030
Now, Father Pyrlig.
323
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,958
Lord, I beg you...
324
00:25:38,579 --> 00:25:40,047
Think again!

What's your name?

I asked for ten, Dagfinn.
331
00:26:43,102 --> 00:26:46,151
How are we supposed to scrub down a ship
with three men?
332
00:26:46,313 --> 00:26:49,066
The men refuse to leave the hall, lord.
333

Refuse?
334
00:26:51,819 --> 00:26:56,120
They say they are protecting their
wealth, under the orders of Sigefrid.

Who said this? Name them.
336

Your brother has called for more guards,
lord, until the metal comes.

Erik-
338
00:27:13,715 --> 00:27:15,809
You have been sleeping at the river.

00:27:17,219 --> 00:27:18,266
Why?

00:27:19,054 --> 00:27:21,227
You have made a fool of me.

You have humped her enough.
342
00:27:27,104 --> 00:27:31,029
You have fed and washed her enough.
343
00:27:31,150 --> 00:27:34,029
Do not allow the men to see
what I know for certain.
344
00:27:34,153 --> 00:27:36,702
You have grown too fond of her.
345
00:27:36,822 --> 00:27:41,453
It is not her arse you want.
It is herself. It will pass.
346

00:27:53,881 --> 00:27:57,511
Erik, my brother, what is happening
around us is your plan.
349
00:27:57,676 --> 00:28:01,681
And it is a fine plan, to give up
Lundene and take the princess,
350
00:28:01,805 --> 00:28:04,308
to ransom her for ships
full of gold and silver,
351
00:28:04,474 --> 00:28:09,071
on which we will build an army
that no man will want to face
352
00:28:09,188 --> 00:28:12,112
and every man will want to join.
353
00:28:14,151 --> 00:28:17,200
This... will be our land.
354
00:28:18,488 --> 00:28:20,331
All of it.
355
00:28:22,743 --> 00:28:26,168
I will not allow us to fail.
356
00:28:29,291 --> 00:28:31,464
SIGEFRID: Haesten!
A guard every ten paces.
357
00:28:31,627 --> 00:28:33,095
Yes, lord.
358
00:28:34,171 --> 00:28:36,469
Forgive me, lord.
359
00:28:36,590 --> 00:28:39,560
It's not that the men
do not want to serve you.
360
00:28:39,718 --> 00:28:43,894
It's that they do not know
where your loyalties lie.
361
00:28:54,942 --> 00:28:56,910

362
00:28:59,196 --> 00:29:01,244

00:29:02,950 --> 00:29:05,169
Oh, sweet Jesus, I cannot run.
364
00:29:05,285 --> 00:29:07,333
Please let them be Saxon.
365
00:29:09,539 --> 00:29:10,665
Father Pyrlig!
366
00:29:11,667 --> 00:29:15,137
Lord! Thank the heavens!
A friendly face.
367
00:29:15,254 --> 00:29:16,927
Are you lost, Father?
368
00:29:17,047 --> 00:29:19,015
Not lost, but abandoned, lord.
369
00:29:19,132 --> 00:29:22,136
I'm returning to Winchester
with an important message for Alfred.
370
00:29:22,928 --> 00:29:24,475
We're going to see Alfred.
371
00:29:24,596 --> 00:29:27,315
Climb onto the cart.
You can help guard Mercia's ransom.
372
00:29:27,432 --> 00:29:31,107
God bless you, lord,
saviour of my blistered feet.
373
00:29:48,787 --> 00:29:49,834
Lord?
374
00:29:50,539 --> 00:29:51,791
Osferth?
375
00:30:01,925 --> 00:30:04,303
Can I say to you that I'm afraid?
376
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,058
I wear a sword
but barely know how to use it.
377
00:30:10,726 --> 00:30:15,402
I pray that when battle comes...
I will not fail you.
378
00:30:15,522 --> 00:30:17,524
Osferth, at times we're all afraid.
379
00:30:18,525 --> 00:30:22,325
Courage is finding the will
to overcome your fear. Nothing more.
380
00:30:23,196 --> 00:30:26,245
Perhaps we'll find you an axe.
It requires less skill than a sword.
381
00:30:27,284 --> 00:30:29,412
But you must find the courage.
382
00:30:30,495 --> 00:30:31,997
Yes, lord.
383
00:30:33,332 --> 00:30:35,209
Thank you, lord.
384
00:30:58,065 --> 00:30:59,317
- Lord.
- Lord King.
385
00:30:59,441 --> 00:31:02,786
Father Pyrlig.
Aethelred and Aldhelm I was expecting.
386
00:31:02,944 --> 00:31:05,072
It is Odda, lord.
387
00:31:05,197 --> 00:31:07,620
Prior to leaving Winchester,
he sent a man, some man,
388
00:31:07,741 --> 00:31:10,244
with word to raise
the fighting men of Devonshire.
389
00:31:10,369 --> 00:31:12,246
He has now met them on the road, lord.
390
00:31:12,371 --> 00:31:16,751
- With the intention of doing what?
- He is marching against Beamfleot.
391
00:31:16,875 --> 00:31:18,422
Yes, lord. He is.
392
00:31:35,977 --> 00:31:37,445
(SOFTLY) Damn him.
393
00:31:40,065 --> 00:31:41,817
I say damn him.
394
00:31:46,488 --> 00:31:47,535
Lord, are we to stop him?
395
00:31:47,697 --> 00:31:49,916
We have no choice but to stop him.
We must stop him.
396
00:31:50,033 --> 00:31:52,081
Lord, may I ask, where is Uhtred?
397
00:31:52,202 --> 00:31:54,250
He was not beside Odda,
if that is your meaning
398
00:31:54,371 --> 00:31:57,250
and it cannot have been Uhtred
who carried the message to Devonshire.
399
00:31:57,374 --> 00:31:58,518
Aethelred, you have how many men?
400
00:31:58,542 --> 00:32:01,341
Over 50, lord, household guard.
I can send for many more.
401
00:32:01,461 --> 00:32:03,463
You will do that.
Rest your men and horses,
402
00:32:03,588 --> 00:32:06,091
but you will join me and my own guard
before first light.
403
00:32:06,216 --> 00:32:07,763
If we are to halt Odda,
404
00:32:07,926 --> 00:32:10,554
we must march day and night
405
00:32:10,679 --> 00:32:12,147
and we must pray.
406
00:32:13,140 --> 00:32:15,393
AETHELFLAED: Dear Lord God in heaven.
407
00:32:16,518 --> 00:32:21,024
Grant me the strength
to survive this ordeal.
408
00:32:23,442 --> 00:32:27,288
Give me the courage
to overcome these hardships.
409
00:32:29,197 --> 00:32:31,245
And instil within me...
410
00:32:32,409 --> 00:32:34,161
faith.
411
00:32:34,953 --> 00:32:37,297
Faith in those I love...
412
00:32:38,874 --> 00:32:41,627
for they will not abandon me.
413
00:32:44,463 --> 00:32:46,465
Lord, I beg of you.
414
00:32:48,216 --> 00:32:50,218
- Amen.
- Amen.
415
00:32:55,056 --> 00:32:57,559

419
00:33:29,007 --> 00:33:31,806
Sihtric, you said there'd be
no more than eight or ten.
420
00:33:32,010 --> 00:33:33,057
He cannot count.
421
00:33:33,178 --> 00:33:35,397
No, lord. It has never been
more than ten men.
422
00:33:35,514 --> 00:33:38,017
Rypere's group will strike
first from the water.
423
00:33:38,183 --> 00:33:40,527
They look to the river and then...
424
00:33:41,561 --> 00:33:42,778
we kill them.
425
00:33:42,896 --> 00:33:44,318
But, lord, we are just 11.
426

427
00:33:45,524 --> 00:33:48,368
- Two each.
- We attack as soon as it's dark.

00:33:57,327 --> 00:33:58,704
Brother.
429
00:34:00,163 --> 00:34:01,710
May I speak?
430
00:34:07,504 --> 00:34:09,347
I've something to say!

00:34:11,049 --> 00:34:14,144
I've something to say to each of you.
432
00:34:14,970 --> 00:34:21,478
You will be disappointed to know
that this woman here is now mine!
433
00:34:21,601 --> 00:34:23,854
No man is to touch her.
434
00:34:24,062 --> 00:34:27,817
Not with his hands
and most certainly not with his cock!

You weakened me, brother.
438

It should have been me who took
the princess and put her in the cage.

Yes. You are right.
440

I... did not think.
441
00:34:53,300 --> 00:34:54,768
You never think.

00:34:54,884 --> 00:34:56,557
No.

We are here for Odda.

by now.

- They are dead.

We go to the fortress.

- We do?
- We came to free Aethelflaed.
478

- We came to kill the guards.
- Bastard, you will say nothing.

be discovered missing.

We cannot wait.

And there are hundreds of them,
both inside and outside the fortress.
483

That he gave his life
to save the lives of many

and ensured King Alfred of Wessex
became more powerful than ever.

Sigefrid had been defeated.

shall be the warrior
