Vikings

Synopsis

Neil Oliver presents this three-part history documentary exploring the truth behind the legend of the Vikings. Tracing their story from their Scandinavian origins and following their trail to America - or Vinland as they called it - in the west, and as far as Baghdad in the east, the series draws on the most recent discoveries in archaeology to paint a vivid picture of Viking society.
