Vikings
by Lianachan » Tue Dec 16, 2014 1:11 pm
I commend to the house the TV series Vikings. Historical fiction, set in 9th/10th C Scandanavia and Europe and based (very loosely) on Ragnars saga Loðbrókar. Portrays life in the "Viking" era convincingly enough - the sets, weapons and costumes are all pretty authentic. As you would expect, it's pretty violent.
A-nis bidh fios aig daoine nuair a tha mi a 'mionnachadh aig dhaibh.

Noted, I saw a trailer and wondered which way it would go on the good/shite axis.
Get it up ye.

Is it on Sky?
A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station.

We've been watching it. I like it, except there are no boobs where there clearly should be. It's because of the network it's on, I'm sure.

Hmm, maybe I'll look for the Marco Polo one first then.

Sounds like you're being given the edited version. The version I've seen has some boobs, and also ladies down below parts (just once for that though).
A-nis bidh fios aig daoine nuair a tha mi a 'mionnachadh aig dhaibh.

It's a History Channel show, and that's the channel it's on over here.

History Channel in the U.S. does not show boobs!
I feel cheated.

The version shown in Europe is uncensored. It has boobs, more violence and some additional plot stuff. The US blu-rays also have that version, so you may wish to consider picking them up.

Nah, if I need extra boobs and violence I'll just turn on HBO.

Yes, that's a perfectly workable solution.
