The old English were very cooperative in the start with the Vikings, they stuffed Lindisfarne full of riches, it is surrounded by water twice a day at high tide and is one of closest sites to Norway in the UK. The Vikings actually entered by rivers. What is now the Louvre museum in Paris was originally a fortification to stop themI did know the Viking thing was a joke.
However...the Vikings were far better equipped for amphibious warfare than the Kriegsmarine.
It would be interesting... hypothetically speaking of a big push from Germany into the UK would have given the Soviets pause...road to Berlin would be very empty.

Defending the isle the size of Britain against amphibious invasion is a monstrous undertaking and impossible to guard every inch.
You need to know main invasion point as the enemy will probably have dummy invasion landings to keep you guessing.
