One of the central characters in season one of Vikings: Valhalla is Harald Sigurdsson. The Nordic Prince is the last of Vikings’ nobility and has ambitions of becoming the King of Norway.

He shares this ambition with his Great Grandfather, Harald Finehair, whom we saw in the Original Vikings series. Actor Peter Franzén plays the role of Harald in the original series.

A keen fan has spotted a huge detail linking the two nobles. In a tweet by NetflixGeeked, it is revealed that Harald Sigurdsson also wore a bracelet that was previously seen wearing by Harald Finehair, showing that it must have been passed on in their family to their descendants.
