Togas on TV
Aug. 10th, 2006 04:52 pmTogas on TV, BBC Four, 9.30pm tonight: "An exploration of television's obsession with ancient Rome".
Meanwhile, the season 1 DVDs of Rome are in the most insanely attractive box I have ever seen, and it is still absolutely brilliant. I must prepare a list to prove why. There are simply not enough bull sacrifices on telly these days or at least there haven't been any in this season of Big Brother (yet). And, damn, why is there never an icon of Titus Pullo yelling, "Sons of Dis!" to hand when you need it?
