L Claudius
MASTERPIECE THEATRE, which has housed the for
midable Forsytes, decorous Bellamys, swashbuckling
Poldarks and delightful Dickenses, will be taken over by
the corrupt Claudians, the family whose business was
ruling the world, when 'I, Claudius moves In on PBS
beginning Sunday, Nov. 6.
The 13-episode TV adaptation of Robert Graves'
best-selling novels depicts the murderous intrigue and
unparalleled lust that characterized the Claudians'
singleminded pursuit for power and led to the downfall of
Rome. Their-story is told by Claudius, whose royal
relatives mistook his physical handicaps for mental in
competence, and had no idea that the stuttering, limping
butt of their ridicule would ever become Emperor.
Derek Jacob! (pictured above), who's now in
'Hamlet' at London's Old Vic, plays Claudius in the Lon
don Films-BBC production which won six awards when it
aired in England. British critics hailed it as "outstan
ding ... a resounding success . . . undoubtedly 'the
best produced, best directed and best acted series of the
year . . . boisterous, gutsy, irreverent . . . a triumph."
Slan Phillips portrays the beautiful Livia, who con
nived, deceived and murdered her husband and children
and others in a succession of cold-blooded power plays
that outdistance the Borgias. Brian Blessed is Augustus,
her unsuspecting husband; Ian Ogllvie is the son whose
death she engineers and George Baker is Tiberius, the
son who owes his crown to her foul play.
Margaret Tyzack is Antonia, mother of the sickly, lim
ping Claudius, and Sheila White is Messalina, the lady of
the evening who becomes his third wife.
The mad Caligula, who led Rome on a non-stop orgy
of blood and lust, is played by John Hurt.
The MASTERPIECE THEATRE series recreates in
opulent authentic detail the glory that was Rome and the
human foibles and flaws that tarnished and ultimately
destroyed it. Aljstair Cooke is host for- MASTERPIECE
THEATRE.

A true-to-life gesture of goodwill
on the part of three young girls who
rescued 'seconds' of fruits and
vegetable crops, destined to be
plowed back into the earth, is the
basis for 'Mobile Maidens,' the
second episode of 'The Winners, a
monthly series of dramatic specials
aimed at the young viewer,
Thursday, Nov. 10 on CBS-TV.
'Mobile Maidens' is based on an
actual event which took place in
California's Ventura County just a
few years ago when an innovative
girls club, made up of youngsters
from lower-income families, decided
to save some of the left
overs of local harvests that were
going to be plowed back into the
earth. The girls planned to salvage
these 'seconds' and sell them
cheaply to the migrant workers who
could not otherwise afford to buy
the products of their own labor.
But these empathetic and
enterprising young women were met
with heavy opposition from both the
local farmers and the union before
succeeding in their project.
