• Name: Tiberius Claudius Nero Germanicus
  • son of Antonia and Drusus
  • not advanced because of his deformities
  • is made consul under his nephew Gaius
  • becomes emperor in AD 41
  • ruled by wives and freedmen
  • allegedly poisoned by his 4th wife, Agrippina in AD 54
REALITY CHECK: Derek Jacobi IS Claudius. His resemblance to the bust is astounding. His portrayal of Claudius is too sympathetic- making Claudius' vices seem nothing more than eccentricities.
