Looks quite promising ...

Thanks Uwe,

This is part of a BBC series. It's not bad, by no means! There's a good attention to detail (arms & armour, clothing), although they could have made Constantine less of a fanatic, I suppose.. :?

Next part will be about the Goths taking Rome.

I've seen these, like you said Robert they were on BBC a while ago, an excellent series imo.

[Claudius Hinricus]

Yes, I really enjoyed it. It was the first time on TV I have seen late romans dressed as they actually have been.

I saw the whole series on flemish TV. Indeed a very good docu.
Does someone knows if it is available through DVD?


Thanks,

[Et tu brute]

I know it's available on amazon, here's a link http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ancient-Rome-Ri ... 950&sr=8-1 but the languages says English and Spanish, but if you can live with that your fine I don't know about other retailers though, sorry.
