0 continuity mistakes in season 1
Starring: Polly Walker, Ray Stevenson, Kevin McKidd, Kerry Condon
I'm afraid there's nothing listed for this season. Add something here!
Factual error: The verse Octavia recites is from Virgilius' poem "the Aeneid". That poem was written at least a quarter of a decade after the death of Caesar.
Titus Pullo: It's as hot as Vulcan's dick.
Trivia: Pompey Magnus had two sons that fought against Caesar: Cnaeus and Sextus. He never had a son named Quintus as is stated in the series.
Question: Who is the mother of Pompey's children? His new wife can't be their mother, since they are too old compared to Niobe's son who's an infant when the show starts. And they can't be Julia's children, since Pompey is worried Caesar might kill them, and Caesar wouldn't murder his own grandchildren.
