I actually hated Eliza Butterworth’s character as the antagonistic Lady Aelswith in TLK but that also proves just how good she really is as an actress. She is the exact opposite of that character in real life!... and more gorgeous too!

Right lol the character is ugly on the inside and outside

I think this series has been the best thing to happen to us at this time. All the characters draw you in and you get totally invested in them. You just can't wait for the next episode and the next thing you know your binge watching. Incredible cast, incredible series. It's #1 in my book! Everyone was brilliant.

I miss Alfred a LOT. You can really feel his absence in season 4.

[@crystaldianestevens4553]

For sure, he kept things interesting and I loved his acting.

[@orillefernando2458]

Came across this show accidently during lockdown trying to find something to watch but am so glad i did. love this show! Love the characters. Alexander is great portraying Uhtred the Great Warrior who also has a kindness to him. The soul searching eyes of this actor and his expressions that brings out his emotions are so great and brings such a realistic effect to his character. I love the scenes between Uhtred and Hild the great bond of friendship portrayed. Again made unique by Expressions of emotions by Alexander Dreymon.

[@WeeClairehere]

Thanks MCM for letting me host this panel, it was so fun and I had fun with both interviews - what a lovely bunch and it's clear from the shares, likes, and comments that The Last Kingdom's fans are amongst the best out there. Cheers folks - good vibes. xx

Last Kingdom, best show ever . Next time Alexander , please speak with uthred accent . Season 4 was amazing .

[@newdiggszweiundsiebzig]

jay but according to what they said, she was that in reality. I thought it was great.

[@DaddySkiitz1]

Marie Armelle Pierre-Louis it really is I was indecisive between last kingdom and Vikings but now the last kingdom takes it by a mile . To be fair though vikings went downhill after ragnars death I feel like the Last kingdom will to if they kill off uhtred .

[@mariearmellepierre-louis8317]

If they kill uthred , it would be the end of the show . A lot of hearts would be broken . At least in viking when ragnar died Ivor the boneless took over and make the show even more nteresting, with his tactics of fighting and his thirst to avenge his mother death inspite of his handicap. But uthred have still a lot to do . He have to get back bebanburg his heritage ,

[@DaddySkiitz1]

Marie Armelle Pierre-Louis 😂 that kid fucked up the show throwing tantrums like a two year old in every other episode . I can only watch cuz of Bjorn the only one that was actually raised and loved by Ragnar .

[@AtlanteanVrilChad]

Marie Armelle Pierre-Louis They won’t. I recommend you read the books to find out what happens next

[@tonirogers1021]

TLK is exceptional. The acting, script, and cinematography is so far above other shows on Netflix and other platforms. Also the music is mesmerizing. Alexander Dreymon, on top of superb acting skills is eye candy for days!😍

[@christoguichard4311]

I love this show so much. Criminally under-acknowledged, with brilliant acting, plots, cinemaphotography, sets, and music. Im about to start Episode 4 and it is just BRILLIANT so far! My question is... "Does Alexander/Uthred speak the way he does in the show for a REASON? Is it to show that he was raised by Danes and so speaks with that "juddery" speech pattern? 😉😆

[@KristiinaBerg]

Watch the podcasst (they are brilliant). You hear his real accent there.

I like the whole cast of the last kingdom & the show is great. We need a season 5 :)

Yeah, I too miss Alfred, such a strong character, that was played so well!!

I read the books,12 total, Uthred still has a lot of living to do. There has to be a 5th season and the show cannot be canceled

[@fruityxoxo1991]

It won't be cancelled, this is one of Netflix top rating shows, and the most different show based on a completely different time period. Netflix doesn't have a similar show like this, The Witcher does not count as it's mostly based on Fantasy with other things which also consists of action, adventure and so forth which MOST shows do have.
