About Maude Hirst
Maude Hirst’s screen credits include Helga in Vikings and Kat Ashley in The Tudors. Her film work includes Sophie in Cash and Curry and Ellie in Nuryan. Helga is the role that provides the longest connection for Vikings viewers, especially through her relationship with Floki and her experience of the cost of his choices.
The Tudors is a useful next step for another historical television credit. Cash and Curry and Nuryan move away from that setting into film work. Those choices provide a specific route beyond Helga without confusing Maude Hirst with Georgia Hirst, who plays Torvi in Vikings.
