UKTV – Viking Dead (2018) Part 2: Viking Burial Ships of Estonia
English | Documentary | Size: 1.26 GB


Welcome to a world of secret graves, mysterious death ships, newly-discovered skeletons, missing fortresses, and lost Long Ships. In this series, leading archaeologist Tim Sutherland travels to Scandinavia, Estonia, Britain and beyond to get new insights into the world of those they called the North Men – The Vikings. Sutherland follows the trail of the Vikings and tries to solve many of the legendary mysteries surrounding the warriors from the north. He is investigating gruesome raids such as the one on Lindisfarne in 793 AD and discovering ship graves off Estonia that reveal violent warrior burials.
From around 700AD to the Norman conquest of England in 1066, the Vikings of the Nordic lands raided and traded across northern, central, eastern and western Europe to create a feared and notorious empire. Now, almost two millennia after their often-terrifying reign, Yesterday uses the modern age to uncover secrets from the Viking Age. By investigating burial sites, The Viking Dead asks who the Norsemen really were, what the truth was about the raids and battles, and what every-day life in a Viking settlement entailed.

Part 2: Viking Burial Ships of Estonia
The Viking Burial Ships of Estonia: Venture to Estonia, where the earliest known Vikings ships to have crossed the Baltic – as well as mass ship burials – have been uncovered.
Two buried Viking Age ships were uncovered at Salme, Estonia, between 2008 and 2012. Dated to around AD 750, these are the earliest known Viking ships to have crossed the Baltic. They contain the skeletons of men who apparently died violently. The finds suggest that they were warriors who were killed in battle and buried in a ship.How and why did 41 strong young men from Sweden die? When the ships were excavated, grave goods such as weapons, jewelry and bones from animal sacrifices were found. An alternative theory is that the dead were not warriors, but diplomats on a peaceful mission. What does Tim make of the new theory? What can the bones of the dead men tell us?

Part 6: Treasure of the Vikings
Treasure of the Vikings: The Viking Age saw major changes in the economy of Scandinavia. Tim Sutherland travels to Norway and Estonia to find out more about the bullion economy.
Plundering, raids and rich booty – this is what the Vikings are notorious for. Their precious treasures are evidence of journeys to distant lands where the warriors enriched themselves. For archaeologists, a newly discovered Viking treasure has more than just material value. They find traces of a past culture in it. Since there are no written sources from the Viking Age, they are trying to understand the world of the Vikings through their treasures. Why did the massive plundering take place in the first place? Why did the Vikings amass treasures? They were probably not after money, because it did not have the same importance as it does today.
In fact, they melted down many of the looted objects and made them into new objects. Archaeologists are particularly interested in two questions. Why did the Vikings leave the sarcophagus with the remains of Saint Cuthbert behind when they attacked Lindisfarne Monastery? And what about the extensive coin treasures that were buried under the floors of numerous houses?

English | Documentary | Size: 1.25 GB


A rich, complex and engaging account of Cook’s voyages across the Pacific, from actor and raconteur Sam Neill. Pacific with Sam Neill follows Captain James Cook’s three voyages to the Pacific – from the Arctic to the Antarctic, and from Tahiti to Australia and New Zealand. Fascinating, engaging, fresh and vital – this is history … but not as you know it.
It’s been 250 years since Captain James Cook’s first Voyage across the pacific, something that would forever change the lives of the Indigenous communities he would encounter. Revered in some quarters yet hated in others, why does he still matter? That’s the question actor Sam Neill is looking to answer in this compelling series.
History is taking to the seas and walking in the footsteps of Captain James Cook. 250 years after Cook began his epic exploration of the Pacific, Sam Neill (Jurassic Park, The Piano) journeys in his wake uncovering stories that resonate from those times on both sides of the beach. Sam begins with a disclaimer – he is merely an actor – but the story of Cook, and the impact he has had on the Pacific in the 250 years since his first voyage, has always fascinated him.
Captain James Cook first set sail to the Pacific in 1768, just over 250 years ago. These vast waters, one third of the earth’s surface, were uncharted but not unknown. A rich diversity of people and cultures navigated, traded, lived and fought here for thousands of years. Before Cook, the Pacific was disconnected from the power and ideas of Europe, Asia and America. In the wake of Cook, everything changed.
Visiting the islands and lands where Cook went and meeting the descendants of the people Cook met, Sam, in this 6 part series, explores the trials and triumphs, disasters and delights that followed. He takes a deeply personal, present-day voyage to map his own understanding of James Cook, Europe’s greatest navigator, and the immense Pacific Ocean itself.
Was Cook an instrument of imperial expansion or an enlightened explorer? Whether admired or admonished Captain James Cook is forever linked to the Pacific, its heritage and its future. Looking behind the man and the consequences of his extraordinary voyages, Sam speaks to descendants of the many peoples Cook met. He encounters the full spectrum from Cook lovers to Cook haters, but most of all he is touched by Pacific peoples’ resilience, resourcefulness and grace.
Voyaging on a wide variety on vessels, from container ships to fishing trawlers and sailing boats, Sam crosses the length and breadth of the largest ocean in the world to experience for himself a contemporary journey in Cook’s footsteps, engaging the past and present in both modern and ancient cultural practice and peoples.
The series aired on Foxtel’s HISTORY channel in Australia and Prime TV in New Zealand in 2018. Based on the book “The Pacific” by Meaghan Wilson-Anastasios.

Part 6: Resolution and Hawaii
The last in the six part series following Sam Neill travelling in the wake of Captain Cook around the Pacific, 250 years on from when Cook made his first voyage. In a bid to find the not yet existent North West passage Cook encountered vast ice ranges and saw the impact of colonisation first hand when entering part of Alaska already overtaken by the Russians. Forced back by the ice shelf Cook retreats to Hawaii for R&R before returning to the Arctic the following summer. But that was not to be. After nearly eleven years of voyaging from the Antarctic to the Arctic Circles trading, observing, befriending chiefs and villagers alike, even participating in local culture Cook is clubbed and stabbed and drowned in a quintessentially tropical paradise? How did it come to this? Or as one of the people Sam meets says, ‘How did it not happen before?’ Back in Australia Sam views an unfinished tapa waistcoat abandoned by Elizabeth Cook after his death – a poignant memento. A larger than life stainless steel sculpture of the man by Micheal Parakowhai is the focus of Sam’s reflections on Cook. Finally on an uninhabited islet in mid- Pacific Sam concludes his journey from being a ‘mere actor’ when he set out to becoming ‘a man of the Pacific.’

Part 5: Resolution and the Northwest Passage
The fifth of six episodes following Sam Neill travelling in the wake of Captain Cook around the Pacific, 250 years on from when Cook made his first voyage. Swapping a potentially easy life of retirement for a third voyage around the Pacific, the relationship between Captain and crew is severely tested as Cook leads his men on an expedition that if successful would dwarf everything he had so far achieved – discover and navigate the Northwest passage. Sam Neill continues to follow the path of the Resolution, again via through New Zealand and Tonga onto Canada and Alaska, experiencing the Pacific as never before.
