Stephen Finlay

An adaptation for television by Trevor Griffiths of DH Lawrence's classic novel

A banished hero of Rome allies with a sworn enemy to take his revenge on the city.

The horrors of World War I have robbed returning veteran Chris Baldry of his memory. The traumatized soldier doesn't even recognize his own wife, Kitty, or remember their years together. While Baldry attempts to cope with the unfamiliar surroundings of his own home, he seeks out the company of an old flame from his childhood, Margaret Grey. His amnesia also makes him a ready target for the affections of his older cousin, Jenny.

Situé juste après la mort de Jésus-Christ, cette mini-série raconte la vie et les aventures des disciples de Jésus, et les événements à Rome pendant les règnes des empereurs Tibère, Caligula, Claude et Néron.
