Hello For those of you who can watch UK Channel 4 TV a new series of six one hour programmes starts at 9pm on Thursday 20 January 2011 where a group are going to build a full-size Roman villa. The really interesting part of this to people with a Shropshire connection is that they are doing the building at Wroxeter, the modern name for Viroconivm which was the fourth largest Roman city in England, situated on the London-Holyhead road (A5) just SE of Shrewsbury. I don't know whether our overseas readers will be able to watch this but they might like to try the Channel 4 web site '4 on Demand' http://www.channel4.com/programmes/4od which gives access to past programmes. The programme title is 'Rome Wasn't Built in a Day'. Mike Shropshire, UK
