- dave333 5y agoAs does the show "The Last Kingdom."
- aproductguy 5y agoThe books are so much better; big fan of Cornwell.
- partomniscient 5y agoLikewise, The Last Kingdom TV show covers these characters probably even more - Æthelflæd is in all 5 seasons [1] (although season 5 isn't out yet), and there's a lot of focus on Mercia.

- cmrdporcupine 5y agoUnfortunately that show has some odd changes to history done for the purpose of entertainment. Particularly on her character, and the history of Mercia and its relationships.
- partomniscient 5y agoYeah, there's all sorts of stuff they've apparently moved around, even from the books it was based on, which themselves were 'historical fiction'.
- staticautomatic 5y agoMany of the plots are true, but of different characters or different locations.
