Rated - 5 starsEMPIRE

max1963 max1963 from Hull [Highly rated reviewer] , 19/08/2008

Excellent piece of roman history & Michael Byrne who plays Cicero (Coronation Street Ted Page) is very good. Epic four-hour series about the rise of Octavius who succeeds Julius Caesar and tangles with Marc Anthony for control of the Roman empire and finally went on to become the emperor Augustus.
