Twins, Scarlett and Tom, are studying the Vikings and Anglo-Saxons
at school and they have a homework project to do. When Tom’s
struggling for inspiration, Grandad comes to the rescue with his
time machine. Tom is catapulted onto a Viking long ship and it’s
not long before he’s being told oral tales, fitted out with
armour and weapons and is getting ready to attack a Saxon village.
But uh oh, his sister Scarlett has landed in a Saxon village, in a
pile of pig poo to be exact. Things seems to be getting better when
she befriends the young Alfred the Great, but watch out, Scarlett,
there’s a Viking ship on its way.
