Just caught the final episode of Meet the Romans with Mary Beard.
Thoroughly fascinating look at the everyday lives of ordinary Romans.
And the presenter - although not set in the traditional mould - is totally engaging. She made even the most mundane household item and sombre tombstone come alive with her conjecture and her enthusiasm for the subject. I could not stop watching her, and with my short attention span, that is certainly saying something. Mary Beard - you rock.
