I live on The Wirral where the final battle takes place, I live in Thingwall (Viking for Assembly field or Parliament) which is mentioned in the film and is not far from the real site of Battle of Brunanburh 937AD which is when England was basically formed after winning the battle against Vikings Welsh, Scottish and Irish /Viking forces.

Strongly agree with your number #1 Pick. I remember seeing "The Last Kingdom" preview image for at least 2 years before I clicked play, and it so surpassed my expectations. One takeaway without giving anything away - I think - the main theme of this show is, nobility, loyalty, honor. I felt a loss when this series ended.

Lotsa love being shown for The last Kingdom, Best of the Best, etc. I concur, IF you are going to limit your list to English language movies and series only. As for me, the undisputed King and likely never to be challenged successfully historical series is Mr. Sunshine. A Kdrama historical series covering the last days of the Joseon Dynasty (Korea), up to and just a tiny bit beyond the Japanese annexation of the country prior to WWI, it's a Must Watch for anyone that claims to be a fan of the genre. The historical accuracy was near perfect, with one miss that added some context to the story line (completely unnecessary as written, IMHO), flawless cinematography, a musical score and OST that was completely compatible with the period of the show, (something that almost Never happens), an incredible script, with flawless deliveries by an unbeatable cast. Humor, drama, intrigue, action, it has it all. I'm not sure, but I think it's available dubbed in English, but even if it is, I think it much better to watch with subtitles, as you gain so much from the dialogue as it's delivered in Korean that can't be translated, emotionally. "What?!?!?!?!" That one word is Powerful. You won't be able to understand unless you see/hear it. IMHO, you owe it to yourself to see it. If you really are a fan of things historical....And Mr. Sunshine isn't the only one, there are many others as good as the ones on this list.
