Synopsis

The year 1066 holds a prominent place in British history for good reason. Within the span of just nine hours, as the Battle of Hastings unfolded, everything shifted. Anglo-Saxon England transformed into Norman territory, and for the following three centuries, its destiny would be shaped by successive lines of French monarchs.
