The vikings,
Here is a good Seafaring film, THE VIKINGS, full length film.
reminds me of my ancestors. .and possibly Cappys as well as it is Northumbria. Enjoy an hour and 40 minutes, full screen and sound on.
When I think back, we were a little like this on the South American coast

Re: The vikings,
In those days they made some great movies, far better than some of the stuff today and the actors were all first class.
Mind you it was rumored that they used Cappy as a model for the ugly onesLOL


Happy daze John in Oz.
