Norman Conquest background videos

Hello Everyone!
I've posted some links here to a three-part series on the Normans that should be helpful for those of you who added the course late (I highly recommend watching the first one for a refresher on the conquest of England itself!) and for any of your family who might want to know more about the historical background of what you are learning about and seeing!

Professor Robert Bartlett: The Normans on BBC - Part 1
Part 2 (The Normans conquering Ireland, Scotland and Wales - beautiful photography of the landscapes)
Part 3 (The Normans and the Crusades)
