The Rome Tabloid - (rumors or facts? - you heard it here first)

[Replies: 1,082]
Since it's a BBC series, and by Ceasar, everyone knows the Brits love a good scandel by way of the British Tabloids (The Daily Star), here are some rumors that you all can munch on, refute, or even start your own.

Here's what I cannot confirm or deny:

-Cato's contract for Season 2 may not be renewed as reviewers says he looks too much like Popeye.

-Servilla and Octavia are lovers in real life and HBO wanted to work this into the script.

-HBO Admins post ridiculous comments on this site in order to get the community's panties in a knot.

-Pompey's beheading was really a snuff film.

B-)

What rumors have you heard that you cannot confirm or deny?

I'm so glad you lot have gotten into this. I know a lot of newer people missed this. I'm not so new, and *I* missed a lot of it.

So, thanks for sharing. Truly.
