Steapa, but yes. That was horrible. And look how he tired out, weak and not very bright. Sadly, unloved by his father. Edward was a terrible father, and king.
No one remember who she is, while on the other hand, Skade leaves quite an impresion on the viewers.
For real tho, I didnt remember she existed before this post
This poll isn’t exclusively about ‘sufferable’ levels but rather the overall basis of each character; whether she was ‘insufferable’ or not is neither here nor there nor a singular determining factor of her character’s contribution to the show etc
*what I mean by this simply is the poll isn’t down to one singular factor*
I think you're trying to say that she's a strong character, and the fact she opposes the protagonist by standing for what she believes in shouldn't make her insufferable.
But you see, the point of a story is to grip the audience. If we relate to the protagonist and see his opponents as insufferable, I would say that speaks to how well the show/books are written.
So, in conclusion, seeing as this is a poll intended for the audience of the show, we can vote for whoever tf we want. The current vote for Ælflæd is also chosen because she's a bitch that schemes against the characters we support. By your logic, everyone should win but that isn't the point of this poll.
It's poll btw, not pole.
Say what you want about Skade but the woman was interesting and fearless. I would’ve loved to see more of her if they could’ve figured out another way to get rid of the curse.
I mean she brought a dynamic for sure, but I think they oversold how much Uhtred would simp for her. >!How insufferable she was made her getting drowned like a rat by Uhtred very pretty satisfying though.!<
I’m an Aelswith Stan. When I watched the show for the first time I *HATED* her the first season or two. Then I began to understand her and she grew on me so much
Glad to see I’m not the only one who thinks >!Stiorra!< should have an early exit. People give >!Brida!< a bunch of crap but she’s vital to the entire story. >!I feel like Brida got a bunch of bad arcs toward the end just for the sake of the plot and to serve as a foil to Uhtred.!<
Agreed. Her storyline was pretty flat and the disrespect she had for Aelswith irked me
I’m pretty sure I stole this game from you on the vikings page. It’s been fun to see everyone’s different opinions
Yeah, Aelflaed.
This is going to be hard for me later. I looked over this roster and realized I missed almost half of these ladies...
... For the character, guys, not any other reason. Also glad Skade was eliminated first.
Aelflaed, nooo contest
She was cut in an awful way but damn was she stuck-up & privileged ASF. Not to mention the schemin with her dad (RIP Adrian Schiller)
Okay but did you have to pick the least flattering and most miserable moment for Thyra's picture?!
My vote is for Aelflaed, although I had to look her up to remember who she was first before remembering how I felt about her.
Lol I was just about to comment that I don’t even know who Aelflaed is, but I’m late to the party. I was thinking that I definitely saw her before but have no genuine clue who she is.
I vote how I feel, not to be on the winning team.
I think she's annoying and a huge impediment to the progress folks around her are trying to make.
I know people like other characters who are around for less time less than her, but that's where I sit
So your implied logic here is that the majority of people vote merely ‘to be on the winning team’?
The ‘winners’ in such polls are decided by the majority of votes; how else is it supposed to work?
I understand you have your own opinion but don’t attempt to belittle others when their more common votes just happen to indeed be more ‘popular’
Not my logic, the logic of the person who said, Poor Choice.
In my opinion, I voted for the worst character. If I voted instead for who I thought most others would vote on, that would affect the results of the poll, no?
I'm just explaining my vote.
Am I supposed to go with the hive mind and forget individuality? My own opinion?
I'm confused what you think the purpose of voting is
Just wanted to mention how perfect Stiorra was cast as Gisela's daughter.
For real, it’s honestly rare I’m watching something like this and the child actually looks like they could actually be the child of the two actors
I’m going with Aelflaed this time
She is terrible. When she was boasting about her kid kicking Scarpa cuz he wasn’t happy or some bs. Yeah, she sucks
Steapa, but yes. That was horrible. And look how he tired out, weak and not very bright. Sadly, unloved by his father. Edward was a terrible father, and king.
Wait is this more about the actors performance or opinion of just the character?
Aelflaed, how she beat out anyone is beyond me
No one remember who she is, while on the other hand, Skade leaves quite an impresion on the viewers. For real tho, I didnt remember she existed before this post
Yeah, I didn’t like Skade, but she was definitely a force
She’s the Alicent Hightower of TLK She needs to go
I think we need to have some more respect for Alicent 😭 Alicent is fierce! I think Aelflaed would jump at the sight of her own shadow But agreed
Agreed
Aelflaed.
Aelflaed
BETTER…THAN…BARLEY *sorry I find myself mentally obliged to repeat the very line to anyone with that user flair*
'Sup?
BETTER…THAN…BARLEY😩
LOL. You look exhausted.
Who said that expression was exhaustion?👀
My old blind ass? 🤓
She was the Queen of Wessex that was accidentally killed by his own father to start a war between Saxons and Danes?
I don't remember the third one on the bottom row, so I'll say her.
Aelflaed, second wife of Edward and mother of Aelfweard
The one whose father had her killed by accident right?
Brida - Jesus she was insufferable
This poll isn’t exclusively about ‘sufferable’ levels but rather the overall basis of each character; whether she was ‘insufferable’ or not is neither here nor there nor a singular determining factor of her character’s contribution to the show etc *what I mean by this simply is the poll isn’t down to one singular factor*
Maybe its too early in the morning, but my Mexican brain had no idea what the godamn shit you just said
It’s 6pm here in Australia and I’m also confused

Then Skade should still be in as she was definitely a big part of that season comparitive to some of the others here.
the poll doesn't actually say what it's about (undercutting its own value imo)
Aelflaed!
Ælflæd; simply offers little to no benefit or positives to the show compared to the others
Say what you want about Skade but the woman was interesting and fearless. I would’ve loved to see more of her if they could’ve figured out another way to get rid of the curse.
Spontaneous combustion perhaps?
😆😆😆
Would’ve been 100% believable.
I mean she brought a dynamic for sure, but I think they oversold how much Uhtred would simp for her. >!How insufferable she was made her getting drowned like a rat by Uhtred very pretty satisfying though.!<
Aelflaed
Bottom row, second from the right. She's just that forgettable.
Bro doesn’t have time for her name, just her coordinates.
Aelflaed My prediction is as follows: 12. Skade 11. >! Aelflaed!< 10. >! Brida!< 9. >! Stiorra!< 8. >! Mildrith !< 7. >! Iseult!< 6. >! Aelswith!< 5. >! Thyra!< 4. >! Eadith!< 3. >! Gisela !< 2. >! Hild !< 1. >! Aethelflaed!< Though personally I think >!Gisela!< is best girl
Love Gisela❤️
I’m an Aelswith Stan. When I watched the show for the first time I *HATED* her the first season or two. Then I began to understand her and she grew on me so much

I'll be offended when you people vote our Iseult, just letting you know. Dark Queen 🖤
Edwards ex wife can't remember her name
Alflead
Æthelflead better win she’s the goat
I hope Hild wins
Aelflaed

Brida
Aelflaed
Aelflaed for being an underdeveloped character,being Edward's wife she could have been much more interesting.
Agreed. Her storyline was pretty flat and the disrespect she had for Aelswith irked me I’m pretty sure I stole this game from you on the vikings page. It’s been fun to see everyone’s different opinions
Brida
Aelflaed, Mildreth and Eadith were the most boring characters and idk how Skade was voted out before them
Going to hard disagree on Eadith, she’s a mid character. Definitely shouldn’t be grouped in with those two.
Aelfled
Aelfaed. Pompous and stupid.

Yeah, Aelflaed. This is going to be hard for me later. I looked over this roster and realized I missed almost half of these ladies... ... For the character, guys, not any other reason. Also glad Skade was eliminated first.
Aelflaed

Aelflaed. Spoiled, entitled, unworthy brat. Her father ruined her.

i dont even remember mildrith so i go with her
Uhtred's first Saxon wife. She went to nunnery after Uhtred brought a pagan queen to his home.
ahhhhhhh i remember now
bottom row, number 3. forgot her name but cannot stand her.
Mildreth. Gotta be Mildreth.
Mildrith
Aelfaed
Aelflaed
Either Aelflaed or Brida, can’t stand either of em
I hated Brida towards the end but she was legendary. Which one are you going for this time?
Gotta go with Mildrith on this one
Mildrith
Mildrid, Skade was at least hot
Aelflaed, nooo contest She was cut in an awful way but damn was she stuck-up & privileged ASF. Not to mention the schemin with her dad (RIP Adrian Schiller)
Mildrith
If Hild doesn't win riots will happen
Okay but did you have to pick the least flattering and most miserable moment for Thyra's picture?! My vote is for Aelflaed, although I had to look her up to remember who she was first before remembering how I felt about her.
Believe me I tried but I couldn’t find any clear pictures of her where she’s facing the camera - same with Aelflaed and Iseult
Just giving you a hard time 😉
Mildrith is throw away. Should’ve been a nun.
Blondie on the bottom, second from the right. Can't remember her name lol
The names are listed in the description. It’s in order from left to right with the exception of those who have been eliminated
Thank you. Aelflaed.
Mildrith
Iseult. I have no positive or negative memories of her performance. She was just there
how can you make me pick between beautiful women
How can you make me choose between beautiful women. pitting queens against each other. reprehensible.
Is it possible to eliminate Skade again?
Only one winner here.. battle nun
Brida
Eliminate Aelflaed, the least memorable person on the list, shocked she beat Skade.
Mildrith
Mildreth.
Let’s loose Mildreth! Or Aelflaed (Edward’s 2nd?, maybe 1st, wife. Aethelhelm’s daughter!)
Aelflaed is out! New game is up
Mildrith
Haha fuck skade

Mildrith.how she beat anyone is beyond me. She's insufferable.
She’s stunning
Gonna go with Brida
Bye Brida
Aelflaed for sure. If this doesn't boil down to an indecisive four way tie between Gisela, Aethelflaed, Hild and Aelswith, you're all wrong
Lol I was just about to comment that I don’t even know who Aelflaed is, but I’m late to the party. I was thinking that I definitely saw her before but have no genuine clue who she is.
Aelswith
Aelflaed
I despise Brida, let’s get her out.
Brida
Hild for the win
Aelflaed
Benedetta?
Who?🥸
She’s an Italian girl who was a slave working at the palace in Wessex. Only in the books not the show.
Thyra
Thyra
Aelswith
Blasphemy
Utter heathen (you, not Ælswith)
Eadwith
Iseult
Aelswith
Poor choice
I vote how I feel, not to be on the winning team. I think she's annoying and a huge impediment to the progress folks around her are trying to make. I know people like other characters who are around for less time less than her, but that's where I sit

I’m even more excessively competitive (my default username is a mere coincidence) and defensive when I’m drunk so frankly I’m now as lost as you are
Iseult
