PLEBS follows three desperate young men from the suburbs as they try to get laid, hold down jobs, and climb the social ladder in the big city - a city that happens to be Ancient Rome.

本剧翻拍自法剧《百分之十》，由BAFTA获奖编剧John Morton负责，众多英美一线明星客串。聚焦跨大西洋行业关系，还会涉及英国对阶级制度的痴迷等方面。

　　Three Plebs join the army in peace-time, hoping to win respect, romance and military discounts at selected restaurants. But when war's declared they're sent to fight on the front line of a Roman legion for a cause they don't believe in. Now their main interest is the struggle for survival.
