Is it for me?
Loud and rowdy as a soap, this is for people who liked the original Spartacus and want more of its scheming. Dustin Clare plays the champion Gannicus as a cocky charmer who gets wine and company after every win, like a rock star. John Hannah's Batiatus works an angle on each visitor, and the arena fights spray blood between the plots.
Before you start
It tells one story across the whole run, so start at episode one and keep going in order.
1 season, 6 episodes, 60 min each, about 6 hours so far
