Early look at 'Vikings' on History channel

Athelstan (George Blagden) is a young, innocent, Christian monk living in the remote monastery of Lindisfarne on the Northumbrian coast of England. For centuries nothing disturbed the peace and tranquility of the religious way of life there – until the Vikings came. From their attitude to their gods, to sex, to sacrifice, the Vikings are a shockingly different culture to Athelstan.
