Eadric Streona: Anglo-Saxon England's Greatest Villain?

[The Lawspeaker]

A look at some of the political events during the turbulent reign of Æthelred 'the Unready' King of the English (978-1016), specifically his chief enforcer Eadric Streona, Ealdorman of Mercia from 1007 to 1017, later popularly regarded as one of the greatest villains of the Anglo-Saxon period.

Æthelred 'the Unready' (The ancient Anglo Saxon Kings had such amusing but charismatic names appointed to them.) I've never heard of Eadric Streona before, so this should be interesting to watch. Thanks for sharing.
