This is an edited version of this programme. Yes, we’ve all heard about Vikings and monasteries but there’s a lot more to it than that - they might make you a business offer you couldn’t refuse but their fashion and language really caught on. Dr Adrián Maldonado of National Museums of Scotland, author of 'Crucible of Nations: Scotland from Viking age to Medieval Kingdom' chats to Susan Morrison about the new cultures emerging in 9th-11th Century ‘Scotland’.
