The story of a clash that defined the future of a country – and a continent – for a thousand years. Harold of Wessex and William of Normandy were two men destined to meet at the Battle of Hastings in 1066; two allies with no design on the British throne found themselves forced by circumstance and personal obsession into a war for possession of its crown.
