The Roman Empire's collapse in 476 AD plunged Europe into a turbulent new era. This documentary explores the chaotic and captivating period known as the Dark Ages in Britain, tracking the land's transition from Roman rule to the rise of Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, the fierce Viking invasions, and the final power shift with the Norman Conquest. We look at the historical disputes surrounding figures like King Arthur, examine incredible archaeological finds like the treasures of Sutton Hoo, and investigate how Christian monks preserved learning against a backdrop of constant warfare and change.
