What an excellent show! Frankie was made for Up Pompeii and Up Pompeii' was made for Frankie. Fantastic script by Tolbot Rothwell and great supporting cast. Comedy at its best!
Well I learnt something new, thank you johnlochness, I now know what the 4th wall is. How clever! Does anybody know if there is a 1st, 2nd & 3rd wall? & What are they? Thanks
It's consistent with the currency being drachmas, Lurcio claiming to have fought at Troy, one of the characters being called Aphrodite and Hermes being the messenger.
I also spotted a couple of minor inaccuracies in this so-called "historical documentary". However, Pompeii was actually founded by Greek colonists around 850 BC. Oo-er Missus.

What s with frankie telling us the sign is in greek when it s? in latin. All their names are latin. The master is a senator C.mon

@Grandson Of Cherve Yes. It's true.👍
Also consistent with Hermes being a Greek god. Mercury was the Roman equivalent
It was actually intentional. Just to add a little more silliness.
He is dead of course but an energy for the messiah and one of a kind...Frankie Howard rest in peace.😊👍
