Hadrian on TV

This just came through in our office notices and might be of interest to those with a Romanist stance.

‘Hadrian’ - Saturday 19th July, BBC2, 20:00

As the British Museum prepares to launch its spectacular exhibition on the emperor Hadrian, Dan Snow takes us on a journey around Hadrian’s vast empire. As he does so, he uncovers the genius and the darker side of the man: peace-maker, frontier-builder, star-crossed lover, architect - and ruthless oppressor of the Jews. But still, says Dan, “One of the greatest of all Roman Emperors.”
