Tooj 17 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Did anyone watch this when it was on? as me mate keeps on harping on about how good it was and i'm wondering what everyone else thought of it when it was on. I know it's HBO which is always a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Carr's Gloves 3183 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 It was really good as close as a series could get without becoming a documentary. Some licences taken but not as bad as the Conn Iguddon (SP) series of books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted October 11, 2006 Author Share Posted October 11, 2006 Just watched the first four episodes. Enjoying it so far I must admit. A nice mixture of violence and muff, although not necesseraly interlinked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 17626 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 The present series on BBC1 (Ancient Rome, the rise and fall of an empire) is far better imo. It's more in the style of a dramadoc rather than a straight drama, and is all the more interesting for it. Never knew Nero was such a fruit cake for instance. On tonight at 9 (clashes with Extras).
