Trivia:

Each episode of Roman Mysteries was shown in two parts starting in the UK on 8th May 2007. As The Pirates of Pompei dealt with children being kidnapped the series was suspended due to sensitivities about the missing Madeleine McCann. The series started being shown from the beginning again on 19th June so the first UK showing of Pirates of Pompei part 1 was on July 3rd 2007.

Quotes:
