‘You’ll just see every character in a very, very different place to where they were last season, and it will be unexpected.’
The end of the drama-filled mid-season finale saw Bjorn Ironside (Alexander Ludwig) get stabbed in the chest by his own brother, Ivar the Boneless (Alex Hogh Andersen).
And while Georgia won’t give away whether or not Bjorn may have survived, she did say: ‘I’m sworn to secrecy but what I will say is that the last season is very much about a journey.
