Tom Rosenthal, Joel Fry and Ryan Sampson return as the much loved under-achievers, Marcus, Stylax and their feckless slave Grumio, in the multi award winning and BAFTA-nominated sitcom set in ancient Rome. It's one year on in the Eternal City, as we flash forward all the way to the year 25 BC. Series three picks up where the last one left off, with our three lowly Plebs still living in a squalid block, which is now presided over by the ruthless Landlady (Maureen Lipman), as the fate of the unscrupulous Landlord (Karl Theobald) is still to be revealed. They work dead end jobs for Rome's third largest grain supply company, under the direction of fearsome boss Flavia (Doon Mackintosh), and although the Games are in town they can't get tickets for any events - not even the pig chase. However, an encounter with a fiery Gallic activist Delphine (Bella Dayne), might at leas improve Marcus' romantic stakes. Could she possibly become his Gaul-friend? Or is she just a bit too real for him? Let the Games begin...
