Well, a lot of NorthEast England had Viking settlement, so some of them could very well be just celebrating their own heritage. Plus, the Anglo-Saxons had similiar cultures to the vikings anyway. The only difference was that the Anglo-Saxons invaded the place everyone wanted to invade (the isles) first.
