Filming has started on BBC Two’s critically acclaimed drama The Last Kingdom, from Carnival Films. The second series, adapted by BAFTA-nominated and RTS award-winning writer Stephen Butchard from Bernard Cornwell’s bestselling series of novels, is to return to BBC Two next year, with Netflix joining as a co-production partner.
The emotionally complex and compelling landscape of revenge, rivalry, hostility, corruption, love, sex, loyalty and friendship, forms the backdrop to a gripping adventure based on Cornwell's novels, The Lords Of The North and Sword Song – part of the hugely popular bestselling franchise The Last Kingdom.
Set in the year 878, the second series returns as fearless and instinctive warrior Uhtred continues his fight for his native land of Northumbria. Uhtred, having given his sword to King Alfred, despite his upbringing by the invading pagan Danes, embarks on his voyage north to reclaim his own fate: to avenge Earl Ragnar’s death and recapture his ancestral lands of Bebbanburg.
Alfred’s conviction to create a united England is stronger than ever, and he sets his sights on the wild lands of the north, which have fallen into chaos and rebellion. It is a dangerous time for Saxon and Dane alike, but Alfred champions a new king - a Christian Dane - to unite the tribes. However, this king has been enslaved, and Uhtred becomes embroiled in a rescue mission, which brings him face to face with an enemy of old.
《孤国春秋 第二季》下载观后评论：
精彩的地方不只是战争场面和斗争下的剑拔弩张，还有微妙的人物设定和纠葛：Uhtred始终得不到Alfred的信任，看似拥有双重身份左右逢源的他却从未有真正的归属；Alfred也陷在自身时代的宗教局限和公理私情的困惑中，其理智的决策一定程度上建立在对他人情义的漠视和伪善上，Odda谏言把国家的利益放在首位，必要时可以牺牲其身陷囹圄的女儿Aethelflaed减少损失，Alfred毫不动摇；身为国王女儿的Aethelflaed被同在英格兰生长、信仰基督教却幼稚愚蠢的丈夫粗鲁对待，在被俘期间敌人军营中的Erik身上感受到什么是爱，最终以悲剧收场。历史书只会记载光辉伟大的Alfred the Great，但重新解读历史的艺术作品却可以为我们记录下忠义的Odda——"留低哪种意义 就看世间怎记载"。
