I, Claudius: Derek Jacobi, John Hurt, George Baker
  I, CLAUDIUS
BBC/London Film Productions, 1976
 
 

Based on Robert Graves' epic novels about the decline of Roman civilisation in the first century AD, this award-winning 12-part drama redefined the boundaries of television when it was broadcast in 1976.

Jack Pulman's brilliant script conveys the unrelenting depravity during the reigns of the four Emperors who succeeded Julius Caesar: Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, and Claudius. The star-studded cast includes Derek Jacobi as Claudius, John Hurt as Caligula and Brian Blessed as Augustus.
