Great news.

Awesome, Love this series.

It felt like there was a scene missing in last night's episode

Floki kills him then it jumped straight to Ragnar burying him. It was confusing as hell and just felt all wrong.

We sort of already knew that from the huge number of extras they are advertising for

But it would have been far more fun if 8000 long haired bearded guys turned up on set with hammers and swords.

Yeah agreed. It's moving at a crazy fast pace this season feels like they're missing out little scenes that would help link things together a bit better.

Perhaps I saw this wrong, Ragnar was burying the old man he killed the guy who escaped the new land, farm area before that kings son killed and burned it down. I don't think he was burying the priest.
Actually not 100% sure the priest is dead it almost looked like a blunt blow to his head, but the blood on flokis face who knows guess will find out next episode.

You need to rewatch the episode.

He was burying Æthelstan hence the whole one sided conversation he was having with him and informing the grave he wouldn't be able to visit him when Ragnar himself dies as he doesn't think Jesus would particularly welcome him in heaven and then placing a Christian cross as the grave marker

Then the whole rigmarole of him placing Æthelstan's crucifix around his own neck

That said I expect Æthelstan will "visit" Ragnar as plot mechanism in later episodes

Great series so far, look forward to next season

R3X · 30 Mar 2015 at 18:32

Then I agree with nexus that was confusing one minute he is killing another man and then burying a different man, certainly something in-between a missed !, yes re watched the last bit its his friend the priest for sure

TheMightyTen · 31 Mar 2015 at 09:04

One thing from the last episode I thought was great

I do like the apocryphal twist that, in fact, Æthelstan is Alfred the Greats father and not Æthelwulf, that might of changed History and how we view "Englands Greatest King" a little

I do like Floki, but it would be amazing if Odin did "grant" him a horrible, painful death. Kind of karma for being such a monumental ****

FloppyPoppy · 8 Apr 2015 at 16:51

So finally got around to catching up

!!! OH FLOKI

U BREAK MY HEART

Uncle Petey · 8 Apr 2015 at 17:52

Floki used to be cool, but the guy's gone full loony on the fundamentalist shizzle.
