Are you a fan of anything viking warrior? Interesting they start the production in Ireland instead of Norway...
ReplyDeleteI just like the epic aspect of it and blond hunks, I find it strange celebrating Vikings who were raiders, rapists and killers. Kinda like when people dress their kids as pirates, like why?
DeleteWe definitely like the blond hunks. The bloodshed, not so much.
ReplyDeleteThe blond one above is I think a rugby player when not acting.
DeleteI hope I am reincarnated and land where the rugby players live. That's not really a thing here, unfortunately. I'd fancy my husband in my next life to be a rugby player who looks like a Viking warrior.
DeleteThey are usually hot, but also very daft, what with all the kicks they get in their heads.... I did like that film about two gay rugby players with Andrew Lincoln. I am reading the book on which Heated Rivalry is based next week, got it from my editor for a review.
