Information
------------------------------

850 years ago, the Normans were one of the world's most powerful military forces, dominating Britain, France and Sicily. Over two episodes we will explore the 12th Century Norman invasion of Ireland. Generally considered English or Welsh, the Normans were in fact as much French as British. It's a real-life Game of Thrones that changed the history of Europe forever.
Ireland, 1166 AD. Like a real-life Game of Thrones, the country is torn apart by conflict between rival kings. When two of these power players drive a rival into exile, he seeks help from Henry II, the Anglo-Norman king of England. Henry's vassal Strongbow and other Norman allies then invade and take control of much of Ireland. This is one of history's most epic stories, and yet it's never been properly told onscreen.
The invaders are generally considered English or Welsh, but in fact, they were just as much French. Their forebears were from Normandy in France, they spoke French and they had French names. Boasting a fascinating cast of characters, including the powerful Norman king Henry II; the opportunistic Norman lord Strongbow; the ruthless Irish king Diarmait; and his ambitious daughter Aoife, who became Strongbow's wife. Ireland wouldn't regain its independence for another 750 years, but the invasion also changed the course of European history, as resources from Ireland fuelled conflict between Britain and France.
"Invasion: The Normans" combines stunning location footage, atmospheric drama re-enactments, and vivid modern-day sequences to reveal this fascinating history, telling one of history's most epic stories. Narrated by leading actor Michael McElhatton (Game of Thrones, The Last Duel), the series is filmed in 4K UHD at spectacular locations in Ireland, France and Britain. The drama re-enactments include gritty and realistic battle scenes. They also vividly recreate medieval Ireland and Europe, from the opulent court of Henry II in 1166 to besieged civilians in Dublin in 1171. Expert commentary, archaeology and scientific analysis add context to the compelling historical narrative.
Contributors include Colin Veach (Hull University), Robert Bartlett (University of St Andrews), Clare Downham (University of Liverpool), Sean Duffy (Trinity College Dublin), Michael Potterton (Maynooth University), Sparky Booker (Dublin City University), Thomas Roche (Archives de l'Eure, Normandy) and Charlotte Lapiche (Falaise Castle, Normandy).

Written and Directed by David Ryan ; Produced by Tile Films for RTE Raidio Teilifis Eireann

2)  Part 2
Episode Two follows the course of the invasion, as Strongbow wins victory after victory. In 1171 Henry II himself arrives to takes control of Ireland, and he grants land there to settlers from Britain. Now archaeology and cutting-edge science reveal their fascinating lives. The episode also shows how the conquest of Ireland enabled centuries of war between England and France.
