About this product

Product Information

A forgotten gem of British Comedy, Chelmsford 123 was the first ever production from Hat Trick (Outnumbered, Have I Got News For You).In 123 AD, a young Roman general, Aulus Paulinus (Jimmy Mulville) is found guilty of a most terrible crime - failing to grovel sufficiently to the Emperor. His punishment is the worst job in the Empire - governing Britannia. Its hard to believe, but in those days Britain was a cold, miserable dump, populated by beer-swilling hooligans...Based in Chelmsford, Aulus knows little - and understands less - of the peoples he has been sent to control, and so regularly finds himself at odds with, and more often than not outwitted by the local Celtic tribal leader, Badvoc (Rory McGrath).This two disc set contains all 13 episodes from both series.

  • A brilliantly fuuny rendition of life in Roman Britain.. highly recommend..

    Brilliant actors create a very entertaining vision of what life in just one part of Roman Britain could have been like .. if only. This is the funniest thing I have seen for years .. can't believe it is not on TV. A joy to watch and have a laugh over.. refreshingly politically incorrect, but never so much as to offend. I just wish there was more than two series. A truly excellent British production that will make you completely forget you're (still)under Covid lockdown.

  • Funny understated comedy with a classically British dark twist

    Funny story, not the most subtle but quite funny if you like British humour. Has an unexpected cameo from the Doctor in the first episode.
