the viking queen (1967)

"Death to the Romans! Come On!"
Salina (Carita), honours her father's dying wish to become Queen of the Iceni, and to share her throne with Justinian (Don Murray), a Roman. This annoys the Druids on one side and some of the hardcore Romans on the other. Soon the couple find themselves in the middle of a war, each on opposite sides despite their growing love for each other.

A film,
that can never claim to be an epic, but is enjoyable nonsense in a peplum type way. Mind you don't look too closely, there are no vikings, and the Druids seem to worship Zeus!
