I went into this series expecting something more in the vain of Vikings, an historical show based on the loose texts and knowledge of the era. The second I let go of this I started to enjoy the show a bit more and see it for what it is. Though I don't expect this show to be renewed it has set up some interesting premises and possibilities for future seasons and the clash between these "fictional" cultures.

It is not Rome, it's not Vikings, it's something else and it's worth a (full) watch.

Am into Druids, magic etc . Watched first hour or so expecting great things. Thought it was very confusing, who's who??
Amazing that Romans invade Britain and have fluent English, at least they should have a slight accent as in Vikings. Very posh druids...
Never saw Romans wearing trousers???

Will give it a second chance and hope it improves.

There is a certain quirkiness and lack of consistency with the show and especially the characters share that I am impressed by. The attempt at humor is actually pretty endearing. With flashbacks and people inhabiting other people you need to pay attention. If you want historical accuracy... I'm sorry I'm laughing. I recommend watching and I must say there are a surprising number of memorable moments and I can tell you this wasn't cheap to film. It's the least dark 'dark ages' show I've seen.

Got to halfway through the 3rd episode and thought "why am I wasting my time with this rubbish?" So well known actors but the plot (Is there one?) is awful. Roman General goes off on his own to meet the head Druid????

It seems a lot of commenters have watched this show expecting it to be an accurate historical rendition. When it is actually a fantasy tale loosely based on the Roman invasion of Britain. Really enjoyable once you get over the idea of "historical reality" being thrown out the window.

Great viewing and I fully recommend

As a Canadian I had no idea what to really expect from UK television, I too thought perhaps it would be Rome/Vikings like, and almost made the mistake of not watching the rest of the series after an episode of two, I have to admit my first thought was do Brits really think Druids could use the Jedi mind trick?? lol, but once you look past some of the sillier parts of the show it really isn't that bad, most certainly worth a watch and enough that I actually do hope they bring it back for another season.

David Morrissey (Governor on Walking Dead) got me interested at first, the amazingly beautiful Kelly Reilly kept me watching and I'm glad I did ;)

I think you need to be on LSD to watch this show. Season 3 has even more questions than it answers.

It’s like each season is a setup for the next season without proving any real answers.

Watched season one with serious doubts. I couldn’t understand why they’ve got modern era mixed in to this era. And the music is almost 70’s Psychedelic.

Enjoyed some of the characters and it had promise, although the main girl actress needs some lessons in acting.

Season 2, episode 1, completely ended any little interest I had.

It’s now off my recommended list and on to ‘awful, do not watch’.

No idea what they were thinking with this...is everyone in production etc drunk?

@angel1online 70s psychedelic folk in the UK was heavily influenced by Celtic mythology - it's actually very clever and deliberate

Unbelievably bad! The story is all over the place, historically inaccurate, terrible script, badly paced, some good actors who must be thinking "what the fuck have I got myself into?" - don't waste your time or energy on this dross!

When this show first came out I set it aside after a few episodes. I decided to revisit recently and found I really enjoyed all the characters and story lines outside the Kanti. I definitely recommend this and hope there is another season.

I do not like commenting on any shows until I watch it completely. I was not to certain about how I feel about this one after episode 2. Nonetheless, I watched it. I would say it is very conflicted. It is not the typical "Rome" tv show you are accustom to. It is something completely different and unique. Now whether it is good or bad unique, I'll say it is up for interpretation and perspective. I did watch it to its entirety. Did I enjoy it. I don't know. Do I regret watching it? No. Would I recommend it? Sure, with great caution. So here you have it. My comment is equally as confusing as the show. Believe me.

Great show as long as you can let go of the historical inaccuracies. You get a large plot and a subplot, with talented actors and a decent amount of laughs thrown in. The amount of characters might seem daunting at first, but just like game of thrones: if you have a decent head on your shoulders you'll catch on in no time!
