SEASON 5: The Norman Conquest of England

EPISODE 83: Edwin & Morcar's Rebellion

Before we charge forward in the story of the Norman Conquest, it’s time to regroup. In this episode, we lay the groundwork for one of the most important regional uprisings of the period—led by the earls Edwin and Morcar. Their rebellion in 1069 wasn’t just defiance; it was desperation. And what followed would shape England’s north for generations.
