The new episodes will see King Alfred's dream of uniting the kingdoms put under threat by an endless onslaught of Danish attacks.

Alfred knows that Uhtred is the only warrior that can stop the Danish uprising, but when their fragile relationship reaches breaking point, Uhtred is left having to make a decision that could change everything he's fought for.

Produced by Carnival Films, the 10-episode season is adapted by BAFTA-nominated and RTS award-winning writer Stephen Butchard, who also serves as executive producer.

The executive producers for Carnival are Gareth Neame and Nigel Marchant. Chrissy Skinns is series producer and Cait Collins is producer.

The Last Kingdom season three will launch on Netflix UK and US on November 19 and will be released to the rest of the world at a later date.
