Summary |
"A group of six builders embark on an ambitious project to bring the Roman city of Wroxeter back to life by building a fully working Roman villa. But the catch is they cannot use any modern technology and their building guide is a manual written in 25BC. Wroxeter was once a city on the very edge of the Roman Empire, where, 2000 years ago, grand public bath houses and magnificent temples stood. Now only ruins remain of the civilisation that revolutionised the way we live." -- ABC website |
