The BBC / HBO Series ‘ROME’

I have just watched series 1 of ‘Rome’ on DVD as unfortunately I managed to miss much of it when it was shown on BBC2.

Did anybody else watch it and what did you think?

I enjoyed the first series…though the last couple of episodes I thought were rushed, I would have kept Caesar alive a bit longer.

The entire second series seemed to be rushed too.
I can hear the producer tell the writers…”Come on we only have 2 episodes left, and we have to get through XX years”.

American reviews were positive but commented on the standard requirement for British accents for all period dramas. 😀
