Season 1 takes a while to get the ball rolling, but is quite good. The theme is the Roman invasion of Britain and their wars and alliances with Celtic tribes. Again, Zoe Wanamaker is in this one as Queen Antedia (sp?) and every scene she is in is golden. A lot of the other players get off some great lines as well, and the whole thing is rather dark with druid sacrifices and all, but the writing sometimes really sparkles. Season 2 is similar, though I thought the finale was kind of weak, and the fate of one of the main characters from s1 is a very dark twist. It still revels in its strangeness, which is what I enjoy most.
