BBC2's major Autumn 2015 TV series The Last Kingdom is based on Bernard Cornwell's bestselling novels on the making of England and the fate of his great hero, Uhtred of Bebbanburg. The Last Kingdom is the first book in the series.

Born Saxon. Raised Viking. Is Uhtred The Hero The Last Kingdom Needs?

In a land torn apart by conflict, an orphan boy has come of age. Raised by the Vikings, deadly enemies of his own Saxon people, Uhtred is a fierce and skilled warrior who kneels to no-one. Alfred Saxon, king, man of god fights to hold the throne of the only land still resisting the pagan northerners. Uhtred and Alfred's fates are tangled, soaked in blood and blackened the flames of war. Together they will change history.
