Rome, Egypt and a dangerous pregnancy
Candy AI’s synopsis keeps the famous names and turns up the drama. Cleopatra sets out to seduce Julius Caesar, and the affair leaves her expecting his heir. That puts both of them in danger. Empires clash, Caesar’s wife wants revenge and finds an ally in Mark Antony, and Caesar has to choose between Rome and the queen who now controls his future.
The ancient setting stands out, and the power balance is the point: she is the one making the moves.
Episode 1
Episode 1 runs 50 seconds and takes place inside a large army tent. At the start, Caesar in Roman armour glares at the camera as Cleopatra rises into view in a gold costume. From about 0:09 she walks around the tent and leans on a table covered with maps, in a gold bra-style top, a jewelled belt and a long skirt. Around 0:31 she steps up to him beside the maps and their faces almost touch. The episode closes on her smiling, sure of herself, while he looks back at her angrily.
The gold bra-style top is the most revealing costume, and it stays on for the whole episode.
Cost

Is it worth watching?
Worth it if you like costume drama with a queen who holds all the cards, and a full story that costs only 36 tokens after two free episodes. Skip it if you are looking for anything more revealing than a costume: episode 1 stops at an almost-kiss. Similar royal stories include The King’s Chambermaid, and the fantasy category gathers the other period and mythical series.
