I CLAUDIUS to be Remade!

[PigsnieLite]

WAAHHHH, I CLAUDIUS shall be remade by HBO/BBC. Becuz of ROMEs success, the Powers of Beelzebub haf decided to continue the story of Augustus by reinterpretating the TV classic which starred Derek Jacobi, SIan Phillips (not even Atia is as evool as her!) and John Hurt as Caliguticles.

Sure -- why not remake all the good stuff, eh, BBC? Think of all those lovely orgy scenes and minnow childrun on Capri that you can make explicit these days! Eck.

Are they going to start where I CLAUDIUS left off or will they completely redo the series. Either way, I will watch this!!!

The thing will be based on the books by Robert Graves. I assume it will be as realistic as ROME, although the expense will be much less since most I CLAUDIUS is a chamber drama. Still, I dont know how they can possibly top the magnificent cast of yesteryore: Derek jacobi, Brian Blessed, John Hurt, Sian Phillips ... IMPOSSIBLE!
