The Last Kingdom season 5 has taken a significant leap forward towards getting to our screens as filming recently wrapped.

The update was provided by director Jon East on Twitter yesterday (June 22) who posted a shot of a clapperboard telling fans: "It's a wrap! TLK5's in the digital can. The last block was a monster, eclipsing in complexity/scale all I've directed on this great show since I joined in 2016.

"The last season is ending in EPIC style! Big thanks to the top team that worked with tireless devotion to make it so."
