"Please keep this series running and running."
"I have a passion for history and Rome has made the Empire come to life. Moments between Vorenus and his wife, Pompey begging for the life of his family, and the awesome and entirely convincing spectacle of the brutality and beauty of Roman society have reduced me, literally, to tears. Please keep this series running and running - do whatever it takes, because you have got something really special here."

James Frankcom, Londinium Augusta


"A truly memorable TV experience. People will be talking about this series 30 years from now. Well done BBC (and HBO*) for having the courage and confidence to put such an ambitious project on the small screen. Can't wait for the DVD to come out so that I can watch it from beginning to end."

Barry Hession, Belfast


"Rome rocks 100%."
"Rome is simply the best thing on TV at the moment. I'm totally hooked. The script is excellent and the actors are superb. I admire the attention to detail with regard to the costumes and general look and feel of the show's recreated Rome. But I would like to see more battle scenes. That aside, Rome rocks 100%."

Beuno, Dublin, Ireland


"Writing as a reasonably lowly sort who's had the kind of luck that most people would not believe, I am quietly smirking at the antics of Titus Pullo. He's already had the entire contents of the gold vaults and now he's cemented relationships with Queen Cleopatra - I take my hat off to him!"

Alan Clark, Rickmansworth


"It is of my opinion that this is BBC's best piece of TV drama since I Claudius. I am of Italian heritage and I find that I am compelled to watch every week, because I can relate to the temperament, mannerisms, and behavior that the actors portray on the screen."

Michael , UK


"Rome is an exciting and realistic portrayal of life in Rome. The characters are human not cardboard cutouts. Vastly superior than anything that the Americans produce."

Mr CJ Jaggers, Glynneath
