Congratulations, Ms Hepola, on pointing out the "British accent" thing. I have always wondered about this myself. I am currently plowing through (or is it "poring over") The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Gibbon. I think that, for the sake of historical accuracy...should they not speak with Italian accents? But then again...do we want them to sound like the Sopranos in togas?
I have a theory...everyone accepted that Romans spoke like Oxbridge schlars for the sole reason that Shakespeare did so many plays about Rome...and in The King's English.
Just a theory...I'd like some feedback on this...e-mail me at deaddog692000@yahoo.co.uk if you have any thoughts.
Chao!

i've only seen the first episode, but already i've been enlightened by the little-known fact that women apparently got brazilians back then. how "refreshingly amoral."

I'm assuming you are making a joke on the blue powdered people...just in case you are not...the BRITONS wore blue powder.

I'd like to propose a moratorium on writers pointing out parallels to modern America in every historical book, movie or TV show that comes out. WE GET IT. Would it kill you to find something fresh?

Congrats, Sarah Hepola, on being the one billionth person to point out that cinematic Romans always speak with British accents. This is exactly the type of refreshing, original writing that keeps me coming back to Nerve.

Fucking liberals love ammorality except for when they can pin it on a conservative. Then the liberals are above the fray, looking at capitalism as barbaric, when in fact they are permissive of things like sodomy, adultery, drug addiction and violence.
