Honestly I can't wait. I stopped reading the novels to see the ending of the film first, to avoid spoiling it. I honestly can't wait to see how his story ends! |

"Fellow fans; As you know, our main man, Uhtred of Bebbanburg‘s adventures came to a close last year after five wonderful seasons of the show 
But wait! - Great news: The curtain is not quite yet ready to fall and it has now been confirmed that Uhtred will polish his sword for one final battle in the promised full length film, ‘Seven Kings Must Die’ which will air on Netflix on the 14th April 
Mark it in your diaries good folks  "
I'm so looking forward to it! |

"Uhtred is insanely hot. Is the actor in anything else? "
I saw him in a film called, Heartlock a few years back. It was ok, not great but if a spot of Alexander Dreymon ogling is what you require, it should certainly fit the bill   |

Oh. Not another Sons of Anarchy thing what’s his name was hot AF (later episodes when he’d grind up) but seen him in something else thought he lost it a bit |

"I need to finish the last series. Got sidetracked with Vikings Valhalla series
I couldn't get into Valhalla"
I did prefer the earlier series of vikings. Not so keen once it was following the sons as adults. |

I think you need to die in battle with a sword in your hand to get into Valhalla |

"Thanks for the update
Same cast I trust?
It is indeed although sadly, this really will be the finale of this wonderful story "
Thought the series lost its way a little bit towards the end, looking forward to the film though.
I'll have to reread all the books.....again |

"Wyrd bið ful aræd as far as I could find my ancestors were from Dunelm (Durham) and were sent up to harry the Scots at times by Ragnar Jr could all be bolloks but I do revel in it "
Pretty much all of Eastern and Northern England was occupied by the Danes, the area was known as Danelaw, for 200 years from the 9th century, so it's fairly likely you have Danish ancestry if you're from up that way. |

"Has anyone watched it yet? Opinions pls."
I watched it. Follows very much the route of the series. Good entertainment about a period of UK history seldom brought to the screen.
Spoiler alert: At the end Utred Identifies as a 16 year old nun and marries the King of Albania, after a brief romance. |

That is the ending filmed for the BBC to show |

I enjoyed it but feel it was very rushed. Shit ending though as a lot of the books and even the show have stated the whole story is him at 82 telling his life story to his new wife's songwriter |

Love the earlier series for slower pace.
The couple on Netflix go that bit faster.
Loved the movie.(no spoilers)
Probably a bigger fan of the books and the way it brings his thought process in.
I think Alexander Dreymon is superb as Uthred though |

He would have been about 80 by the end. The film covers events over about 12 years. If you think he was about 20 when Edward was born, and it ends when Edward's son is about 40, then around 60 years has passed. So he's about 80. He looked bloody hot for an octogenarian  |

"Uhtred.
I would
Absolutely!
Me too "
Yes, except for his appalling accent (in the film. Only seen season 1 of series so maybe develops over time but I found it quite jarring)but then I probably could forgo him speaking altogether |

That first episode when he jumped in the pond a young man and came out as grown up, sexy Uhtred. Ooooft!
