The final 10-part season will continue to follow the adventures of Uhtred of Bebbanburg (Alexander Dreymon), a warrior born a Saxon but raised as a Dane, in ninth and tenth-century England. Horrocks is currently starring in Sky’s Ancient Rome series Domina as Drusus. The Last Kingdom is written by Martha Hillier and executive produced by Gareth Neame, and Nigel Marchant.
