Anybody had a chance to watch BBC2 last night (monday)? They aired Terry Jones' brilliant series (Terry Jones' Hidden Histories) about history and its pitfalls, this time about ancient Rome.<br>
<br>
From the BBC:<br>
"Terry Jones uncovers surprising and little-known facts about the lives of ordinary ancient Romans. There's not a Caesar to be seen in this revealing film, as Terry explores what the Romans drank at a bar called The Priest and Cucumber, the rising problem of burglary, and just what went on in the Roman bathhouses."<br>
<br>
I taped it of course, but I've had no time to watch it yet.<br>
