I've been watching Rome lately so this feels apt. I like your Saxon helmet, too.

I have watched the entirety of Rome at least 20 times. James Purefoy is brilliant as Mark Antony.

One of the most underrated shows ever. Also one of the more historically/culturally accurate depictions of the Ancient Rome of the time. The guy who plays Titus Pullo is also amazing. Did you know that Titus Pullo and Lucius Vorenus were actual guys in Caesar's army in Gaul? There is a passage about them in Caesar's Gallic Wars.
