SEASON 5: The Norman Conquest of England

EPISODE 89: A Scottish Marriage

We head north to Scotland, where King Malcolm III makes a move that will echo for generations: marrying Margaret, sister of the last true heir of the House of Wessex. In this union of sword and saint, we see not just political maneuvering—but the shaping of future kingdoms. It's 1070, and the ripples of William’s conquest are lapping at every shore.
