[allypally1983]

I just love this programme!!! George Blagden looks better with long hair and a tashe than in real life!! Anyone else watching?

[ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe]

Isn't that on later in the month?

[flippinada]

Ooh is this the second series out now?

[allypally1983]

Saw the trailer this evening, I think it's 2 weeks ish. Can't wait!!

[allypally1983]

I've been rewatching series 1 on demand. Series 2 looks great from what the trailer showed

[youngestisapsycho]

Series one must be being repeated as they've appeared in my recordings on my Tivo box.... i can't wait for series two!!

[allypally1983]

Yes series one is being shown very late throughout the week about midnight or so on BBC2. I am too excited for s2!! Lol

[zukiecat]

I'm looking forward to this too

George Blagden is hotter than hell with his long hair and moustache

I love him as Athelstan when he goes all Viking,

[BagelGoesWalking]

If you liked that, have a look at The Last Kingdom. Danes invading, Saxons, King Alfred etc.

S1 on Netflix, S2 on iPlayer but Ep1 only available until Saturday.

[EnidButton]

Ooh! I didn't know this was back. It was a slow burner but I loved it by the end.

Especially Alex Vlahos who I think is wonderful and should be the next Doctor Who

Bagel

The Last Kingdom is awesome! I'm working my way through the books, brilliant

And Uhtred Is Hotter Than Hell

[BagelGoesWalking]

Uhtred is pretty good, isn't he?!

What are the books like? Was thinking of giving them a go...

[Yorkshirebetty]

The books are fantastic, I would highly recommend them!!

[zukiecat]

Yes the books are fantastic YorkshireBetty

I'm working my way through them, I think there's 9?

Well so far anyway

I tried reading Bernard Cornwell's Arthurian Trilogy but could never get into them, but The Last Kingdom ones are brilliant

XH liked Sharpe, but that was never my thing, I like ancient history and Sharpe is too modern for me
