Roman Empire by Train with Alice Roberts

Season 1 Episode 2: I'm Spartacus

Alice heads seven miles south of Naples to Herculaneum, a town that, like Pompeii, was buried in volcanic ash in 79 CE. She also pays a visit to Capua's giant amphitheatre, second in size only to Rome's Colosseum, where gladiators battled wild creatures from the farthest corners of the empire, including lions and tigers. Alice gets a chance to handle the world's most famous sword.
