That little appearance in the s3 gave me goosebumps. Seeing him in the crowd, standing there looking at Uhtred. Litteral chills

[@philliphampton5183]

And Untreds sad/ happy cry/ smile when he sees him and speaks of him.. Bonded.

[@dennisbales4652]

Yes!!! That speech made that episode, EPIC!!!!

[@dennisgarcia2109]

I just saw that scene. I'm in tears I came to find a leofric appreciation video and comments

[@lordmoe9102]

I almost cried

[@instridewith_life]

I'm glad they didn't just forget about him

[@lopezlion3164]

Leofric is my favorite character from the series. Shame he was gone so quick.

[@deejayrestua7601]

It was a necessary sacrifice, Leofric's death opened the way to Finan and Sihtric

[@Dilly_Dil1y]

@@deejayrestua7601 yea I had a feeling he needed to die to help develop uthred. He was like a bigger brother to uthred.

[@liamwalton3469]

First we lost Leofric then Iseult, Halig, Thyra, Father Beocca, Young Ragnar, Erik, Steapa, Odda the Elder yet Aethelwold outlived them last kingdom loved killing off amazing characters.

@@deejayrestua7601 You forgot Osferth, Leofrics nephew and Alfred’s bastard.

[@jazzcappy]

They did him dirty by killing off his nephew Osferth as well 💀

[@paurometabolous]

I saw Leofric as the single greatest influence on Uhtred's character development into the leader he would become. So well written and acted. His appearance in season 3 further solidified that. And also made me choke up.

[@hubendraknirnarciso8573]

I'm in awe, seeing his appearances in S3... his character alone gained my attention in every scene he's in. especially in Uthred's visions.

[@emmanuelhernandez396]

I really like the scene where they’re being followed by Danes and uhtred pulls out his sword and says “at least one of them will die” and then leofric pulls his out and says “one or two of them”

[@willhull1735]

Uhtred learned many things from leofric as he was a warrior who had no interest in silver or gold but being a true warrior and believing in what he was doing as a man, he was a soldier and soldiers always follow but also in the choices he made, its funny how the smaller characters made such a big impact on the show and made it what it was. Arseling.

[@gabrielcarrasco8414]

Except they rode north to raid.

[@sirgainz_439]

@@gabrielcarrasco8414even then he was doing his job though. “watching” uhtred was his only task at the time. and he was aware of his less than royal status despite his accomplishments so he took to raiding in the moment of gaining wealth, and even then still returned completely loyal to wessex

[@freespirit2449]

Loefric was on for so few episodes but had a huge impact on the show and on Uhtred. His appearance in S3 gave me goosebumps. He was so good to watch

Leofric could CARRY AN ENTIRE TLK SEASON...He is that charismatic.

[@haroonhassan13]

Can't believe in a series with so many epic moments and battle scenes , the most epic moment comes from a random dude standing in a crowd smiling

[@ByronJames7]

Leofric. I even smiled. “I knew him,” I said warmly, “and I loved him.” Leofric had been a tough West Saxon warrior who had taught me about war. Earsling, he used to call me, meaning something dropped from an arse, and he toughened me, bullied me, snarled at me, beat me, and became my friend and remained my friend until the day he died on the rain-swept battlefield at Ethandun. - Uhtred in 'Sword Song' by Bernard Cornwell

[@Walesball1214]

i liked leofric his accent is great and he talkes loyalty and his own mind its an unlikely friend of Uhtred if he survived till the end what would happen. and he was a warrier till the end

[@multienergico9299]

3:32 when Leofric stands between Utrecht and Ubba, that's probably the moment Utrecht began to really appreciate Leofric as a friend and a Saxon to look for. Very few would have done what he did there.

[@NaughtyFox1331]

The respect, admiration and love Alfred had for Leofric, Alfred never shows anyone the same devotion at all during the whole series, Leofric was truly his man

[@bobthebromosapien7496]

Honestly the loss of Leofric is still the one that hit me the most. More than any other character including Osferth. Finan is more akin to a brother to Uhtred but Leofric is like a mentor or uncle figure in Uhtreds life. He taught so much to Uhtred about how he should behave and watchout for. The things he will need to learn if he expects to lead and survive. I think his death was a bit premature. I think it did need to happen, just maybe not so soon.

[@steveningram8022]

Leofric is awesome could have made a series about him,,he made the last kingdom,👍😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚔️

[@RisingFX]

No he didn’t 😂 yes he was good but uhtred, finan and citric are a better group

[@phoenixrose1192]

@@RisingFX The group would have been even better with Leofric. I loved his plain speaking Northern English vibe and he loved a good scrap! 👍 It’s actually great when they show a Saxon who can fight as well as any Dane which is more historically accurate, the Anglo-Saxons weren’t weak people in real life. For this reason alone, ‘Vikings’ was unwatchable for me.

[@RisingFX]

@@phoenixrose1192 Fair enough, I haven't watched vikings and im not sure I could. The last kingdom is my top 5 potentially top 3 shows of all time. Have you seen the latest season?

[@phoenixrose1192]

@@RisingFX I couldn’t watch Vikings after series 3 (I tried to give it a chance, I don’t know why I was doing this to myself), in literally every fight scene the Saxons were basically treated worse than the Gondorians were in LOTR…whilst the Vikings were given a Godlike status. So it wasn’t a compelling watch after a while… TLK is a much better show and balanced at least, the story and cast are on another level. I feel like *not* having most of the Saxon characters played by Irish actors made the TLK feel more authentic to me than the Vikings as well. I binged it on Netflix a few days ago, it was refreshing to see a series that actually ended well these days. I think TLK got better and better after each series and I’m definitely looking forward to the film! Have you seen S5 yet?

[@RisingFX]

@@phoenixrose1192 Agreed, ive not seen vikings but ive seen clips on other social medias. I do agree with what you say. character arcs are brilliant in TLK and you get a sense of actually being part of something. I like how action doesn't overule the storyline too, even though I really enjoy watching Uhtred fight. I like the build up and unexpected events that keep us on edge. TLK did have a slow start and although I didn't enjoy the first couple seasons as much as the last ones its sad that there wont be another season, what's this film going to be about? Yes I have seen S5, in my opinion S5 was arguably the best season of the series. Who is your favourite character in the show?

[@vIMONST3RIv]

Love how their friendship developed from hate for one another, but then turned out to be uhtreds first true loyal friend, uhtreds vision of Leofric smiling in the crowd at uhtreds speech of Alfred was both emotional and perfect, great way to pay tribute to leofric

Fantastic edit. The overlay of "It's been good to have you as my friend.." whilst seeing Leofric's smiling ghost got me good.

[@user-md9hn7jz7f]

Leofric was a great character, then when he told King Alfred that he would fight Uthgred to the death when he was about to be executed. That sold me, Leofric is the best character I have seen in years. I have never had a character make me want to keep watching more than Leofric. In just 7 episodes.. He convinced me he was nothing but a true warrior and a man. Hard to find a character do BOTH, especially in 7 episodes. Episode 8 just made me lose my mind.

[@_crisiscache_8378]

he was like a father to uhtred, at least that's the way I saw it. He took uhtred under his wing, stood by him, protected him, shaped him unit the man we see throughout the rest of the show. when he couldn't find a way to avoid uhtreds execution, he offered to do it himself so he could give uhtred both a painless and dignified death but also Valhalla. Fate claimed him all the same as it had the king and Ragnar.

[@mcren6781]

I wish they wouldn’t have killed off Beocca and Leofric i lost a little interest when they died. Season one was my favorite with ubba and guthram they were awesome characters who gave me the chills.

[@dellasacco6480]

my absolute favourite ❤

[@nd15music73]

Leofric and Ravn are the two most immersive performances in TLK imo. King Alfred also was great, but Ravn in Episode 1 sold the first episode (Rutger Hauer, played the Android in Blade Runner, for those who didn't notice who was playing Ravn, one of his last performances was The Last Kingdom before he died), and Leofric solidified the first season.

[@kingivar702]

Yo you know Leofric was something else when he isn't afraid to square up to the Earl Ubb when he approaches Uhtred and the King during their first meeting. Surely a small scene but that says alot about Leofric, he was selflessly bold enough to truly and literally square up to this fierce chieftain.
