The Last Kingdom is a historical drama about the development of England from the ninth century onwards, presenting the fictitious narrative of Uhtred, played by Alexander Dreymon, who is born an Anglo-Saxon and is adopted by the Danes, popularly known as the Vikings, in his childhood. As an adopted member, many Danes do not trust Uhtred, making him an outsider in his new family, and the Anglo-Saxons would not accept him back because of his time with the Danes. Uhtred must show himself to be a skilled warrior and leader, as well as decide if he is Anglo-Saxon, Dane, or a unique blend of the two. The Last Kingdom offers enough dramatic fights, allies and adversaries, and gorgeous warriors to pique the interest of almost everybody.
