I've been watching this since 8 & it's pretty good! Much as I hate puns, I did have to laugh when Boris was talking about the aqueducts - "built by Agrippa; Augustus' right hand man. When there was a problem he'd say get Agrippa man"....:lol:

I see that he stopped short of describing the foul manufacturing details of garum whilst talking about it - there is a very well preserved garum factory around 45 mins away from Gib at Claudio Baelo at Bolonia, by Tarifa.
 
I managed to miss this programme sorting out domestic squabbles but it sounds good. I met Boris on Friday night at he's every bit as dopey and hilarious as he is on TV!
