The Last Kingdom on Netflix released its fifth season earlier this year and fans have started comparing it to Game of Thrones and it’s spin-off House of the Dragon.
The show is set during the 9th century in Anglo-Saxon England as they fight back against Viking invaders from Denmark.
And as predicted by many fans it has been in the Top 10 on the Netflix charts since Season 5 was released.
Fans on Twitter can’t get enough of the show, with some dubbing it ‘one of the best series in history’.

One viewer commented: “Extremely captivating from its soundtrack to its staging in battle through history, everything, in general, is transmitted in an impressive way.
“This season has been really moving and for me, it is one of the best series in history. Masterpiece 10/10.”
Another viewer tweeted: “Recently finished watching The Last Kingdom. This show seriously doesn’t get enough attention.
“It’s one of the most consistently well-written shows I’ve seen, even with the low budget of S1 does the writing shine, and continues to improve over time. Highly recommended.”
“The Last Kingdom is my favourite Netflix show. Its series finale far surpassed Game of Thrones finale!” tweeted a third fan.
“Well better than Game Of Thrones. Don’t think there is a bad episode let alone a bad season,” another viewer posted.
