In the final two episodes of Season 2, Ragnar’s hopes of securing land in Wessex collide with King Horik’s hunger for revenge. As the Vikings advance towards King Ecbert’s villa, they walk straight into a carefully prepared Saxon response. The resulting battle is brutal, leaving Rollo gravely wounded and forcing Ragnar to reconsider what victory should really mean. While Horik still dreams of plunder and vengeance, Ragnar begins to see a different future: Farmland for his people, an alliance with Ecbert and the possibility of using Viking strength in the struggle for Mercia. Back in Kattegat, however, the most dangerous battle is no longer being fought with Saxons. Horik becomes convinced that Ragnar has grown too powerful and secretly prepares to destroy him and his entire family. Floki appears to turn against Ragnar, Siggy is drawn into Horik’s plans and every friendship suddenly becomes suspect. But beneath the deception, Ragnar is quietly testing the loyalty of those closest to him. What follows is a tense and violent reckoning in which betrayal is answered with betrayal, old alliances are shattered and Ragnar’s rise reaches a decisive new stage.
James Blake returns to the front line of online crime to investigate one of the darkest threats facing young people today: a hidden world of sextortion, grooming, harmful algorithms, and sexual exploitation moving across social media platforms with frightening speed. What begins with victims in the UK and warnings from police, experts, and whistle-blowers soon reveals a much larger and more disturbing picture, where online predators, organized networks, and global demand turn private screens into places of fear, blackmail, and abuse. The investigation takes him from Britain to the Philippines, where he joins a specialist international task force during police operations targeting livestreamed sexual exploitation linked to offenders abroad. Through survivor testimony, frontline officers, digital evidence, and the reality of raids on suspected abusers, the documentary exposes how technology, money, and anonymity can connect criminals thousands of miles away with vulnerable children. Urgent, shocking, and deeply human, it asks who is really protecting young people when the worst crimes online are only a few clicks away.
