    I can't remember either, but here is a guide to the summery of each episode (episode 22 in season 2):

    The bodies are not mentioned, but maybe we need to rewatch.

    Here it says effigies are paraded past. Sorry, thought they were bodies didn't mean to cause confusion.

    I would say that it Anthony's death was implied...I totally agree with you Virgil, I don't think the history went that far.

    Fen you caused a great deal of confusion for me. But we all know now, even me, what really happened. A dictionary is helpful sometimes.

    It was one of the best mini- series I've ever watched. Excellent acting, wonderful depiction of the era, even though slightly inaccurate. But accuracy in period movies and series seems to be impossible, so I've stopped taking this factor into consideration.

    I think a lot of people put the historical limits aside and watched the mini series for what it was.

    Sorry about that.

    I am worried that I remember the show in more detail then is apparently normal. Maybe I love the show a little too much

    With the obvious exception of the effigies, could have sworn they were bodies when I watched Rome. Ah well, I will just have to re-watch it and pay more attention.

    I think we all loved the show so you are not alone.
