Series set in ancient Popmeii where Lurcio, the slave servant in senator Ludicrus Sextus house is telling stories of every day life. Or rather not every day.
Created by the author of most Carry On movies which had huge influence on the kind of humour you will find here. The most unique development was ’breaking the fourth wall’ which means that most of the time Lurcio is talking straight to the audience like it wouldn’t be a play. The innuendo based humour was fun, but the plots begun to repeat themselves after a while.
