I went to the Jorvik festival a few (coughs many) years ago! It was Brilliant! I will never forget the culmination after the defeat of the Viking Lord was his "burial on a Boat set on fire with burning arrows. Followed by some very un-Viking like fireworks! The culmination of a week long festival!
What a great way to spend a week, in York with a bunch of "Happy Vikings." Ollie, the history of the UK is quite complex and dynamic. Thanks for keeping your local and reginal history alive...... Time to clean the BBQ for lunch.
Thanks Ollie. Looked like a great day out. History is written by those who write it, which is not the same things as the people who made it...right? Isn't Knutsford in Cheshire named after the Viking king Cnut, or is this one of those urban myths that has taken on a life of it's own? Anyway, thanks again.
I thought that it immortalized a particularly aggressive Pike with strange dietary preferences as to the men and beasts who tried to use the ford!? 🤭🙄😱
G'Day to you, we were there in 2014,went to the Jorvik Museum, very well done as Museums go, I thought having the Smells of the place Brilliant!...PS WTF is a Palestine Booth got to do with Vikings!!!!
As a Dane, it could be rather interesting to experience such a festival in England.
Great video. Thanks.

Thanks mate. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
We did........ Thanks again@@BeeHereNowuk
Looked like a great week for sure
Loved York the two times I have visited.
York was a great week's stay nearly 40 years ago. Doesn't look like it's got any worse over the years. 😉😊
Excellent video as always. I have never been to York, it has been on my list for a while, I will have to tick it off soon. Keep up the great work.
Looks like Glastonbury with battleaxes!!! 🤣
Great, I'll be there on Wednesday. To be fair, I was there last year and it was great.
You looked a bit damp, too - - had to smile at the brief clip of the 'Viking' sucking on an E-cig!
Great vid Ollie and cool haircut mate!
Haha thanks! 😀
The black wolves need to visit york

When are you organising the steam rail festival, in the birth place of steam. It just needs the visionary to make it happen.
Now you got a proper name: Ollie the Videographer.
But that feather helmet....sheesh, that was weird (the whole outfit, in fact)

Yorkshire Yorkshire Yorkshire
I was under the impression we did look at Viking culture and trade as well as all the rape and pillage - or have I just spent too long in York? 😀
