UKTV – Viking Dead (2018) Part 1: The First Viking Raid on Lindisfarne
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 1: The First Viking Raid on Lindisfarne
The First Viking Raid: Lindisfarne was a peaceful, holy island, until the Vikings arrived. Tim Sutherland joins archaeologists as they uncover the realities of the Viking raid.
In 793, Scandinavian sailors reached the island of Lindisfarne. They brutally plundered the monastery there and murdered the clergy. This raid is considered to be the beginning of the Viking Age. In the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, written a century later, it is said that pagans murdered wildly and plundered without hindrance. Archaeologists want to substantiate the historical description of the catastrophe with material evidence and find ancient bones. The excavation team cleared the surface of stones and found various bone fragments and several skulls in a lower layer – almost everything was in disarray. But there were also finds of skeletons, which could indicate a Christian burial. Carbon dating shows that they come from the early Middle Ages and therefore fit into the Viking Age. Are these dead victims of the first raid on Lindisfarne?

Britain’s Great Cathedrals. A six part documentary series that looks at the architecture and tells the stories and characters behind six of Britain’s Cathedrals.
Sir Tony Robinson visits Britain’s great cathedrals, considered some of the most magnificent in the world, to investigate their turbulent history and the treasures that they house.
Dominating the landscape for centuries, ancient cathedrals and abbeys reflect Britain’s history through their architectural grandeur-stories of its kings and queens and the religious and social changes brought about by the English Reformation, as well as many other tales of intrigue, love, faith and conviction.
For centuries the great religious buildings of Great Britain have inspired and fascinated pilgrims and visitors from around the world. Britain is well-known for its churches and cathedrals; buildings of great architecture and religious grandeur that form many of our recognisable skylines. But these grand structures are also full of facts, histories and stories that you may not have been aware of.
Actor and history enthusiast Tony Robinson takes us on a journey around the United Kingdom, showing us his highlights while providing fascinating details and stories along the way. Britain’s Great Cathedrals take the viewer on a journey to look at the history and architecture, and learn about the characters who have made the cathedrals what they are today.
The series features interviews with historians and footage captured by drones filming the legendary facades and soaring interior spaces of York Minster, Canterbury, Salisbury, Durham, Liverpool and Winchester Cathedrals.
