Ave,Dudicus,I'm glad to see people are watching anyway. The tunics you mentioned earlier are worn by both main characters and the eagle,I suppose, is to show they are military.However on my set they are a very dirty gray. I also like Pullo's approach to things. He seems like a real person in a time when you could do that stuff and get away with it. This time instead of the Romans being bad guys the worst so far have been the Aegyptians.However, I had to chuckle at Caesar's way of dealing with the situation. Seems fairly authentic for the times. I cant seem to locate those helmets though. Montefortino? Early Coolus? They look good to me,though. Yep, I'm totally hooked,too.The Historical consultant is Jonathan Stamp of the British School at Rome and has some pretty impressive credentials.Check out HBO.com and see the info there.Vale,Andy
