The Normans' story is one of total transformation: starting as fierce Viking raiders under Rolo, they settled in France to form the Duchy of Normandy. They quickly adopted Christianity and sophisticated statecraft, paving the way for William the Conqueror. The documentary culminates with William's pivotal 1066 invasion of England, which he secured through a brutal conquest, establishing castles like the Tower of London and commissioning the Domesday Book, forever changing the British Isles.
