Pertinax Posted July 22, 2007 Report Share Posted July 22, 2007 Welcome Claudia Octavia..if you use the "search" facility on the front page of the Forum and tap in "I Claudius" you will see that there have been quite a few threads regarding the TV series and the book.There are also some spin off threads regarding comparisons of Claudius to other TV and Film productions. EG: http://www.unrv.com/forum/index.php?showto...amp;#entry47850 http://www.unrv.com/forum/index.php?showto...amp;#entry62907 as you can see this is a popular subject here! The site is divided logically into areas of interest and specialisation, if you navigate between posts that interest you, you will soon have an intuitive feel for the correct slot for a new thread or post.

Also, I read that there was a bbc reading of the book by the guy that played Claudius. Do you know where I can listen to that at? Thanks again.

I believe you might be able to download a podcast of Derek Jacobi's reading of I, Claudius from iTunes, I'm rather confident that I did see a version of it floating about, although I can't be 100% sure of this. Perhaps you'd have to buy it from the iTunes store if it's not for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M. Porcius Cato Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 And was it any good MPC? Would you recommend it? If you have a long commute to work or an opportunity to listen for long stretches of time, it's really wonderful. Otherwise, it would be difficult to follow.

Octavia Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Thanks all for your suggestions. I just wish there was a site I could go to to listen to it to see what it sounds like and all. Very cool about the reading of I claudius though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
