02
Rome
Why this pick
Its vividly physical ancient world, factional manoeuvring, and intimate view of Rome’s elite make it a natural companion, especially for Domina’s Augustan power struggles.
03
The White Queen
Why this pick
A female-forward dynastic drama driven by marriage, motherhood, rivalries, and survival inside a volatile court—matching Domina’s interest in influence behind official power.
04
The Borgias
Why this pick
Offers similarly lavish historical intrigue, where family loyalty and personal ambition constantly collide with public authority in a dangerous political centre.
05
I, Claudius
Why this pick
A superbly performed Roman palace drama whose poisonous family dynamics and imperial scheming deepen the same Julio-Claudian world that Domina approaches through Livia.
