9pm, Sky Atlantic
It’s back to ancient Rome for this psychological drama examining the rise to power of Livia Drusilla (Kasia Smutniak), wife and adviser to Augustus Caesar. We open in the aftermath of Julius Caesar’s assassination and young Livia’s marriage to Tiberius Claudius Nero – a political alliance that sees the couple forced to flee Italy. Seeking to return home, Livia begins to plot how she could ascend the ranks of society. Co-starring Isabella Rossellini and Game of Thrones’ Liam Cunningham.
