Channel 4 – 1066 The Battle for Middle Earth (2009)

It’s the most famous date in British history: but what was 1066 like for the people caught up in its catastrophic events? In this innovative blend of historical drama and original source material, director Justin Hardy re-imagines the story of this decisive year, not from the saddles of kings and conquerors, but through the eyes of the ordinary men who fought on their behalf.
