Vikings - River Trent

Season 1 Episode 4 of 8

Beau Ouimette and Rick Edwards return to the River Trent to follow in the bloody footsteps of the Vikings as they invaded ninth-century Britain. In the first ever archaeological river search of key Viking sites, they hunt for relics of Chief Ivar the Boneless and the Great Heathen Army, who conquered the Anglo-Saxon Kings of England. The search begins next to the site of the largest ever Viking burial ground found on the British Isles, Repton Monastery

River Hunters airs on Sky History at 10:00 AM, Thursday 9 May. (Subtitles.)
