anyone watching Cleopatra?

[carlajean]

it's so annoying... making all sorts of wild assumptions and presenting them as historical fact.

more deatails please. the programme on one of the discovery channels with yasmin whatsit playing her?

the body of a woman from Cleopatra's period had been found in Alexandria and because the shape of the tomb resembles the Pharos lighthouse, where Cleopatra's sister Arsinoe had had a victory, and because the body was of a woman who had had a luxurious lifestyle.....it must be Arsinoe. really? Didn't help that it was being fronted by the annoying Scots historian with the ponytail, sorry, forgotten the name.

I watched it and now mean to look up the actual facts
