SEASON 6: The Other Norman Conquest

EPISODE 114: Locking Down Troina

1063 was a make-or-break year for Roger de Hauteville. On this episode, we watch him balance on the knife’s edge of survival and triumph. From rescuing his wife during a local revolt to enduring a brutal siege, Roger’s resolve is tested like never before. And yet, somehow, against the odds, he pushes deeper into Sicily than ever before. This is the year that begins to turn ambition into legacy.
