Am enjoying re-watching I, Claudius

The 50p it probably cost to make seems to have all been spent on the acting and the writing, and it's held up well imho

I, Claudius, 1. A Touch of Murder: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0074srn via @bbciplayer

The aging of some of the characters now looks particularly shonky

I think it might be at least *partly* because I/we know how these people actually did look in their older age ....and it's different

Great series, in any case....like a hyped up Dynasty in togas

@matty It holds up very well, I think, despite its flaws. But I'd honestly like to see a big budget remake. You could even cast a few of the original members in different roles.

By complete coincidence, YouTube keeps thinking that I want to watch this.
