Livia, was she the old bird who stabbed herself repeatedly with a gladius, to illustrate how fun life can be? I only saw a glimpse of that show when I was about 6 or 7, but I remember that scene, it stuck to my head. And now that you mentioned Reverend Mother I remember her pruny face too.

Livia was the scheming manipulative bitch wife of Augustus, former wife of Marc Antony, mother (by Antony) of Tiberius & Drusus, grandmother to Claudius & Germanicus....& an incredible self-serving cunt who ruined the lives of everyone around her. Much like one of my roommates.
It really is a marvelous series, though. Some of the lines are great.
