- Here is an interview of George Blagden ("Athelstan") from the new History Channel mini-series Vikings which premieresMarch 3 3012 at 10/9c.
Character description: Athelstan - This young Christian monk finds himself in an unfamiliar world after the Vikings raid his monastery. Athelstan is brought to live in Viking society and struggles to maintain his beliefs in an environment very different from his home across the sea.
Show Summary: The HISTORY® original series Vikings transports us to the brutal and mysterious world of Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel), a Viking warrior and farmer who yearns to explore-and raid-the distant shores across the ocean. His ambition puts him at odds with local chieftain Earl Haraldson (Gabriel Byrne), who insists on sending his raiders to the impoverished east rather than the uncharted west. When Ragnar teams up with his boat builder friend Floki (Gustaf Skarsgard) to craft a new generation of intrepid ships capable of conquering the rough northern seas, the stage is set for conflict.
But for all its warfare and bloodshed, Vikings is also a story of family and brotherhood, capturing the love and affection between Ragnar and his wife, Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick), a respected warrior in her own right. It is the tale of Ragnar's brother Rollo (Clive Standen), a fierce fighter who simmers with jealously; of Earl Haraldson's wife Siggy (Jessalyn Gilsig), a dutiful beauty who may be less than loyal; and of the monk Athelstan (George Blagden), whose Christian morals clash with the Vikings' pagan society. As ambition and innovation rattle a civilization, these characters will be put to the test-and their way of life will never be the same again.

I just want to hug him. He seems like a very huggable person.
Hes definitely the definition of an ancient day English Christian ! Loveable lad I'd say ya?
Me to
Yes
I'm so baffled by how effortlessly charming he is. I just...HOW?!?!?!
He is so, so gorgeous
Thumbs up if you've started watching "Vikings" because of George Blagden after discovering his talent in "Les Miserables"
one of the best actors in the hole cast, IMO. along with Gustaf Skarsgård
Definitely agree.
Dont forget travis m8
Great actor and wonderful personality! Gotta love George🙂
He has got to be the most charming person ever
HE IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!
am i the only one who gets naughty feels when he says 'monk'... it's so crisp and when he ends with that 'k' sound... i mean seriously.. i melt
I love you Ragnalstan!
Thanks so much for this interview. I really loved the insight into Athelstan and the story in general. You asked some excellent questions! Can't wait for Vikings to finally be on our TVs.
His first scene!! hahaha ...i sooo wanna see Athelstan accept Ragnar's future invitation in season2 (hopefully there is one) *fingers crossed*
fuck he is so charming
Oh no he's adorable
I just can't keep my eyes off him.
OH MY GOD! I cannot contain my excitement for this shows airing, and this interview was awesome! there should be more interviews like this.
Omg! his voice :'(
He's such a cutie oh my god!! I'm totally crushing

You should hear how Travis Fimmel calls him monk. It will probably make you combust...check out the DP/30 interview with all the guys.
I can't wait for Vikings! And George is so perfect. His eyessss
im watching Vikings now, and I'm missing his role
(kicks down your door in the middle of the night) LOOK AT HIS EYES. HIS LAUGH.
I am so excited for Vikings and by Vikings I may or may not be referring to my obvious infatuation with George Blagden and seeing him act.
I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to wait till Feb 2015.......
Reading this 10 years later❤😂
His voice sounds like James McAvoys'.
It's so cute
i miss Athlestan i felt so connected to him
this priest...
The show sucked hard without you man!
Thanks so much for the upload :)
"A mix of Game of Thrones & Sons of Anarchy" - 100000% right
He’s soooo adorable❤
Who got killed in the background? Hear all those sirens during the interview?
He's so sweet !.
OMG he's just as cute in real life.
awesome awesome awesome!!! watch them series!!!
Can't wait for this show! But sadly I'll have to wait quite a while since I live in the UK :(
Mi personaje favorito era el, Athelstan , pero lo mataron >.< en el ep 3X6 ,Fail !
i'm so excited for this
HIS LAUGH
Game Of Thrones + Sons Of Anarchy = Vikings
That's pure gold!
y se aprende de verdad, sobre los Vikingos!!
oh gosh I am in love with his voice *dead* 0_0
I love viking era!!!!
George is epic
10:29
Oh, George!
They get big-picture stuff historically accurate, but switch up minor details, a couple accurate but do try to keep it accurate. So far Vikings is such a great show.
the guy that asks the questions should have tried harder to make his voice weaker so that we wouldn't hear him at all.
The siren that started at 5:00 was the ambulance leading me to the hospital after i had a heart attack.
10:15 😍omg sooo cute i ship with ragnar ❤️
he has a fantastic laugh.
He's so fucking pretty, that nose is beautiful
Athelstan!😧
Do any of you think George's laugh sounds like the Tom Hiddleston "Ehehehe"?
Can't decide who is hotter out of George Blagden and Orlando Bloom
George by a country mile !! 😁
@@harry1976ize George is pure adorable but Legalos is Legalos.
Ladies and gentlemen. Him
I know right! When I see him I just think Grantaire. XD
I know. I'm like "Grantaire! What are you doing?"
Vikings was in Asia, traded with Baghdad and Teheran regularly. There is even old Buddhas found in viking graves and loads of chinese silks.
I was waiting for it the whole season and it never came :
I wonder more about his transition from a character like Grantaire to a character like Athelstan. They're polar opposites... Is there any interview where he talks a little bit about Grantaire?
He's soooo cute and sweet
we should keep our hopes up ;)
Omigod he is hilarious !!
I thought his name was acklestam this whole damn time
It's so weird, I can't picture him as anyone other than Grantaire.
ahhhh 😍
Um.
His name is George Blagden
That's not Daniel Radcliffe.
I love the show! Awesome! You Must see it if you haven't!
Waiting for season 3.. I'm afraid their moving the storyline far to fast. They made Ragnar king WAY to quick. I'm still a huge fan of the show & think all the actors play their parts very well.
I agree. I think it's probably because History has yet to commit to this show for the long haul, since it really hasn't struck huge ratings yet, so they're really just writing the show assuming every season could be the last. It would be a shame if they ended a season on a cliffhanger or with bricks laid out for the next season and all of a sudden History decides not to renew it.
he's adorable
aaron is a 'drop dead gorgeous human being' too isn't he george ;)))))))
Trust me, they were not. I did my thesis on them.
does anyone know what "Vikings" is rated? like TV-14 or TV-MA, because I would like to know how appropriate it is
He is a baby James Mcavoy. I don't hate it.
SWOON!!!!! :3
@Georgina Rawson DEFINITELY George Blagden. :3
Wait...you take The Bloom and I'LL get Blagden! =P lolol
Did anybody notice the sirens at 5:10?
Let me...love you...
I believe it was TV-14. c:
oh my god he just looks exactly like my crush - why do british men keep doing that to me?
0:13 a mix between game of thrones and slender man?
and Sons of Anarchy.
MMMMMMMMMMM YUM, YUM, YUMMY, AH HOW I LOVE GEORGE BLAGDEN !!!!!!!!!!!!! SOOOOOO(O GOOD WHEN HE SLIDMMMMMMMMMMMMM YUM, YUM, YUM, YUMMY, AH HOW I LOVE GEORGE BLAGDEN !!!!!!!!!!!! SOOOOOOOOO(OGOOD WHEN HE SLIDS DOWN MY UMY TUM, TUM, YUM, OH, YEA, YEA, YEA !!!!!! I JUS LOVE, HIM, LOVE, HIM ,LOVEHIM YES INDEEDY I DO, DO, DO !
How can he say that the Vikings are "mischaracterized" as raging psychopaths when the show most certainly portrays them as having next to zero regard for lives that are not of "their own"? They take joy at murdering and torturing the people of (what is now England) in this show -- and likely did so in reality as well. They took joy and satisfaction in raiding, plundering, and murdering in order to steal. Sick puppies, really. Oh, and by the way, George Blagden is ridiculously cute. ;) Lol
Judy DeBoer True but everyone was more that way inclined the only difference is the vikings mastered the art of fear and they were also the most advanced society at the time
I am not watching the Vikings after the death athelstan.
no vikings in Asia yet... :(
i'd like one....
Absolutely not. They were traders, first and foremost.
Kind
I didn't enjoy the series after Ragnars death and it wasn't the same after Athelstan, but upto then a fabulous series.
I like your shoelaces.
What a cutie.
And your first name is Ali?Hehe
girls can be named Ali too
nope... i'm a girl
Hahhahhahaah
er
Ur a guy rite?
I know, great right? So gay
