The Caesars is a British television series produced by Granada Television for the ITV network in 1968. Made in black-and-white and written and produced by Philip Mackie, it covered dramatic territory similar to that of the later BBC adaptation of I, Claudius, dealing with the lives of the early emperors of Ancient Rome, but differed in its less sensationalist depictions of historical characters and their motives; in particular, the Emperor Tiberius is portrayed much more sympathetically.
The show is credited with propelling the international career of actor Freddie Jones who played Emperor Claudius.
The major cast included:
All six episodes were written by Philip Mackie and directed by Derek Bennett.
The Caesars was released on DVD (Region 2, UK) by Network in April 2006.
