Roman \"Abandonment\" of Britain: Fact or Fiction?
#2
Roman was more or less "abandoned" by Rome in 410 AD, the Emperor, Honorius told them they should seek to their own defenses. Though Britain had been in bad shape for sometime, at least enough for them to elect their own "Emperor" to usurp Honorius in 407, which failed. Romans had lost control of a considerable portion of Britain by 383AD

Perhaps you are thinking of the movie "The Last Legion" in which Romulus goes to Britain after being usurped in 476?
