Meanwhile, Sky's rival BBC has unveiled first photos presenting the characters from their new three episode period set drama THE

    1. probably not, since it is on Sky, at least if we're talking viewership, but qualityvise it will probably be better since Vikings were so unwatchable

  2. Britannia will be good for that first of the year viewing slump we always seem to get into. Nothing ever good is on the first of the year.
