How to watch Vikings for FREE: get the first five series without spending a penny
The series follows warrior Ragnar Lothbrok and his sons
VIKINGS first aired on TV in 2013 and has been so popular it has carried on for five seasons, with a sixth supposedly set to land on screens in autumn 2019.
The drama follows the adventures of Ragnar Lothbrok (and later his sons) - a Viking whose existence although has never been proven, is mentioned in Age Old Norse poetry.

He is a warrior and hero who becomes King of the Viking tribes.
It is a series well known for its brutal battles and vicious behaviour, with some referring to it as Game of Thrones but without the nudity, so if you're a GoT fan or you love a gripping bloodthirsty plot, this is most definitely the TV show to watch.
With all five series of Vikings currently available on Amazon, all you need is a subscription to Prime to watch it, but you can get a free 30-day trial first before having to pay a penny.

The second half of season five wrapped back in January 2019 so every episode up until this point is ready for viewing on Amazon now, so simply download Prime to access it.
The trial is free for 30 days, but you must remember to cancel it if you don't want to incur any charges, otherwise the subscription will automatically renew.
If you get hooked on Vikings, the good news is season six has long been confirmed, but the release date and plot is still unknown.
When season six was confirmed, show creator Michael Hirst, who also directed The Tudors said: "[season six] will deliver a huge and unexpected revelation to our audience", so we're expecting great things.
Actress Katheryn Winnick, who plays the fierce, feminist character in the TV show, has also been taking on directorial duties in season six, leading to vague speculation she may not survive the full length of the last series.
With 69 episodes of the TV show aired so far, you may be tough pushed to fit watching all of them into a free 30-day trial, so either clear your diary, or be prepared to pay for the following month.
It is just £5.99 if you only want video and TV show access, or £7.99 to receive the perks of next day Prime delivery, too.
Just remember to cancel it if you only want to pay for a one-off month.
