Pine Barrens Mafia Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 The people of Northumbria weren't Scots, they were Anglo-Saxons. The People of Scotland were not Norse/Germanic, they were Picts. The Picts were a pre-Roman Celtic tribe. They are the Barbians who started attacking Romanized Briton after the Empire withdrew. The Romanized Britons offered land to the Angles and Saxons to fight off the Picts My thoughts also You know I thought this took place during the lifetime of Charlemagne. I guess not. He'd have !@#$ed any Viking invasion up. His grandfather Charles Martel was pretty wicked as well. What happened to the French? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB3 Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 my thought about killing the old man was so that his people wouldn't want revenge before Paris This is why I thought Ragnar killed him as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plenzmd1 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Watched after the hockey games last night as could not sleep. Best war/fight scenes of the series. Thought it was great. Funny, I was actually rooting for the Frenchies, don't know why. Rollo and the Princess going to be getting busy...right? Kalph ....man I don't know, I mean she is smoking, but she ain't lying, she is going to kill you. Ragnar, that's a lot of lives to sacrifice I guess he kinda knew they were in trouble and wanted Floki to take the fall, wonder what they will do differently in round 2.

Kalph will get whats coming to him from Lagertha Ragnar a patient man will make sure Floki faces his Gods they will go through the front gate as they learned the walls are too difficult and they know what faces them once they cross the bridge.

Rollo probably Kalph is nuts Yeah wouldn't have sacrificed all those men for Floki, should have just tried him for murder then executed him ... but were is the fun in that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB3 Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 What an incredible episode! I knew Ragnar was playing Floki. Floki let the power get to his head way too much. Rollo and the French princess will absolutely be getting busy. I couldn't believe it when I thought Bjorn had died. I'm liking his character more and more. It's cool that you see Ragnar's respect for Bjorn growing. The pride in his voice when he told Bjorn he saw him leading. I HAVE TO SEE LAGERTHA NAKED!

Buffalo Barbarian Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Floki needed to be taught lesson and he got one. he blamed Athelstan and questioned his God's True but a lot people died in the process, doubt this happens in real life, but it's show and you have have drama and such for entertainment purposes.
