'''1066''' was the year in which the [[Battle of Hastings]] was fought in [[England]]. It helped to give the [[Norman]]s, under [[William the Conqueror]] [[Norman Conquest|control over England]], led by [[Harold Godwinson]]. | |||
[[The Monk]] once unsuccessfully tried to change the outcome, so as to hand victory to the [[Saxon]s. He was stopped by the [[First Doctor]], [[Steven Taylor|Steven]] and [[Vicki]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Time Meddler]]'') | |||
Meanwhile, on the field of battle, the [[Eighth Doctor]] and [[Mary Shelley]] met King Harold. ([[BFA]]: ''[[Mary's Story]]'') | |||
At the conclusion of the battle, according to one account, Harold's body was intentionally misidentified by Countess [[Gytha]] and Lady [[Edith Swan-Neck]]. In fact, Harold had survived the battle, but the false identification allowed him to die as Harold but be "reborn" as [[Hereward the Wake]]. ([[DWA]]: ''[[The Real Hereward]]'') | |||
