About this listen
In January 1066, the death of King Edward the Confessor triggered a succession crisis that would change the course of English history. Three men laid claim to the English throne: Harold Godwinson, the powerful English Earl; William, the bastard Duke of Normandy; and Harald Hardrada, the last great Viking warrior.
In this episode, we reconstruct the narrative of the momentous year that followed. We detail the contrasting lives of the three contenders, the exhausting forced march to the Battle of Stamford Bridge, and the tactical stalemate at the Battle of Hastings.
