150 Years of Roman History in 30 Minutes
Three historians, one history – or so you would think. But historical accuracy suffers at the hands of propaganda, gossip and rumour when it comes to the Ancient Romans. ‘150 Years of Roman History in 30 Minutes’ is a humourous retelling of Ancient Roman political history starting with the reign of Caesar in 46 BC and ending with Domitian's reign up until 96 AD. Will the historians be able to agree on anything? And most importantly, will they be able to entertain the restless guests of a Roman dinner party with their stories?
