He was trapped - he couldn't get up. There was blood everywhere. The faces were coming closer, the knives rose and fell. And then to his relief he saw Brutus.

The most iconic death in history, Caesars assassination is the climax to an impressive series of victories: from conquering Gaul (France) and Britain, to outlasting Pompey and Cato, gaining Imperator status and falling in love with Cleopatra, how did it all come to such a grisly end?   

Join Keith as explores Caesar, possibly the most successful leader the world has ever seen.
