Storyline

Edit

In York, Ivar and the Northmen hide in the sewage and surprise the Saxons. They defeat King Aethelwulf and make Bishop Heahmund prisoner. Meanwhile Floki returns to Kattegat and convinces many warriors to travel with him to the land of gods, a perfect place to live, despite the warning of Lagertha. Bjorn, Halfdan the Black and Sinric are welcomed by Euphemius in his camp after their long journey through the desert. But soon they find that something is wrong. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Goofs
Lagertha pronounces Aud's name differently from everyone else, ie as "Au-" and a hard "d". The other characters (mostly Floki) uses the Icelandic pronunciation, where the "Au" sounds like "öi" (this is also the Norweigan pronunciation of the same spelling) and the "d" would actually be a "ð" which sounds like the "th" in the. Neighter of these reflects the old Norse pronunciation which would have been "Auð", with an "English" "Au-" and a "Icelandic" "ð".

Quotes

Halfdan the Black: She was not a she.
Bjorn Lothbrok: What?
Halfdan the Black: You heard.
Bjorn Lothbrok: And, uh, was that a problem for you?
Halfdan the Black: I'm starving.

Incompetent writing -

Arabs portrayed wrongly and the fact that Ivar should've died already, this show is going down hill after Ragnors death, possibly should've tried ending this series at season 4 or given Ivar the death he deserves for killing his own brother.
