What The Factual? Episode 5 - The Vikings

Gill & Pete look at Gill's unashamedly favourite group of pillagers, The Vikings (Norsemen) and their effect on Britain and possibly a bit too specifically, The Wirral. Plus Gill asks a very specific Viking question and gets far too excited about the Whale Road.Shownotes:References used in this episode:https://www.history.org.uk/primary/resource/3867/the-vikings-in-britain-a-brief-history https://www.twinkl.co.uk/teaching-wiki/history-of-vikings-in-england#:~:text=The%20history%20o f%20Vikings%20in%20England,-To%20cover%20the&text=As%20far%20back%20as%20the,a nd%20grow%20a%20community%20there. https://www.wirralhistory.uk/vikings.html https://ryanferguson.co.uk/blogs/blog/vikings-wirral Book:Stephen Harding - Ingimund's Saga: Viking Wirralhttps://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/iconic-viking-horned-helmets-actually-3000-years-old-180979339/Follow us on Social Media:X / Twitter:  @WhatTheFactualInstagram:  @whatthefactualpodEmail us..:  [email protected] The Factual? is written and presented by Gill Smith & Pete Moor.Subjects & Research by Gill Smith.Sound, Editing & Music by Pete Moor.
