Roman's Empire is a British television comedy programme starring Mathew Horne, Neil Dudgeon, Chris O'Dowd, Montserrat Lombard and Sarah Solemani.
The show's central character is Leo (Mathew Horne), the ex-boyfriend of businessman Roman Pretty's (Neil Dudgeon) middle daughter Nikki (Montserrat Lombard), who still works and lives with the family.
His best mate Jase (Chris O'Dowd) is married to the eldest sister, Jenny (Sarah Solemani), and is constantly attempting to get away from her and their new-born daughter.
The family is not averse to nudity, with Nikki declaring she will go to the Squid premiere naked in response to Leo's comment about clothing (Roman following suit), and Seb's infamous "Wang Shapes".
His initial plot of luring Roman to his death in the potting shed (now redecorated as a Japanese house) fails, as it is Kelly who is drawn by the sprinklers.
A pilot episode of an American remake of Roman's Empire has been commissioned by ABC, as a co-production between Tiger Aspect, Katalyst, and CBS Paramount.
