🐾 Arya's Approval
Right darlings, this series absolutely represents everything brilliant about historical television drama. Derek Jacobi's performance as Claudius is extraordinary – he brings such intelligence and vulnerability to this character who survived deadly politics of ancient Rome through wit and careful observation rather than brute force. What makes I Claudius so compelling is how it shows Roman Empire from inside, revealing personal relationships, family rivalries, and political machinations that shaped one of history's most powerful civilisations. Siân Phillips is absolutely chilling as Livia, and Brian Blessed brings incredible energy to every scene he's in. Writing is phenomenal in how it balances historical accuracy with gripping storytelling. You learn about Roman history while being completely entertained by palace intrigue, assassination plots, and complex personalities of emperors, empresses, and senators who controlled ancient world.
Perfect for anyone who loves historical drama that treats its audience with intelligence and respect. This represents television at its finest – when writers and actors collaborate to bring history to life in ways that are both educational and utterly captivating. Plus, 5-disc set means you get complete epic story! Plus, choosing preloved means we're keeping these essential pieces of television history in circulation! Grand historical epic masterpiece providing unforgettable Roman drama! Region 2 DVD format suitable for UK and European players! 💙
