About this listen

 Inspired by the true story of the lone Viking who singlehandedly repelled an entire Saxon army: His life, loves, hopes, dreams, fears and the shocking conclusion to this uncommon act of love and valor. On September 25, 1066 the last great Viking battle for England was fought when fifteen thousand Saxons surprised a small contingent of invading Norsemen at Stamford Bridge. The Saxons had the advantage of overwhelming numbers and were well on their way to an easy victory, when... Before the two armies could engage, a lone Viking -- a berserker of emmense stature -- took to the bridge with his battleaxe and singlehandedly repelled the entire Saxon army while reinforcements were called up from riccall, nine miles away. This lone Viking’s feat is recorded in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle: “But there was one of the Norwegians who withstood the English folk so that they could not cross the bridge nor complete the victory.” To this day it stands as the greatest one man stand in history. But who was this lone Viking and how did he achieve such a feat? Why did he do it? The Viking on Stamford Bridge tells the extraordinary story of this Norseman from his upbringing as a child beneath the harsh hand of a renound warrior, to a tradesman, loving husband and father, to the hero who stood alone against an army.
