    Just like Alexander the Great (HOW Caesar would have liked that simile), we all have our private Caesars. But honestly, I find it almost impossible to describe what kind of person I think he was, so the fact that I'm very much enjoying Ciaran Hind's performance means - they gotta DO it, before I know if it's near my own image.

    I do think that Hinds' Caesar is a tad more ruthless than I envision my own private Caesar, although heaven knows, I'm probably idealistically foolish!
