Description
Synopsis:
It’s 55BC and the Roman Empire rules over ancient Britain. But rebellion is in the air in the form of a group of British freedom-fighters, led by the inept Reginald.
Princess Britney of Essex is kidnapped and taken to Rome, to marry Caesar and hopefully quell the rebellion. But her fiancé, Prince Ralph of Wessex, sets off to rescue her, accompanied by Britney’s parents, and her sister, Princess Whitney. Unbeknownst to them, they are accompanied by Basildon Bond, Caesar’s master spy and self-styled master of disguise.
Back in Rome, Mark Anthony decides that he wants to be Caesar instead. And things get complicated when the British freedom fighters turn up, having hitched a ride aboard a Roman ship, posing as galley slaves. They also aim to take down Caesar, and the story concludes in three-way showdown in the Coliseum, where Clarence the cross-eyed lion plays a pivotal role in the eventual outcome.
A hilarious panto, reminiscent of Carry On Cleo and featuring two outrageously funny ugly sisters types, Britney and Whitney.
