A blood-soaked, medieval epic that tells the story of Wilkin Brattle, a 14th century warrior, whose life is forever changed when a divine messenger beseeches him to lay down his sword and lead the life of another man: a journeyman executioner. Set in northern Wales during a time rife with rebellion and political upheaval, Wilkin (Lee Jones) must walk a tight rope between protecting his true identity while also serving a mysterious destiny.

I admit that my hopes for this series were too high, so I was severely underwhelmed. About halfway into the series I let go of my expectations and started to enjoy some unexpected hilarity. I know this was supposed to be a drama, but I managed to find quite a few comedic elements, although it certainly wasn't anyone's intention. Anyway, I'm glad I got to see Peggy Bundy again after all those years, found out who the most brutal Welsh murderer is, and got to watch a killer turn out to be a Templar and a priest turn out to be a murderer. The funniest characters were Isabel and Milus, those two were really something.
