The show A Roman Empire is a television programme presented in an episodic format. It falls under the broader genre of a series, with each instalment offering a self‑contained story. The particular entry in question is the sixth episode of the third series, identified simply as S3 E6. In this episode Thomas is introduced to Sally’s uncle Leonard, who works as a show‑business agent. Their meeting sets the stage for the events that follow. Shortly after their encounter Leonard suffers a fatal heart attack, an abrupt turn that leaves his niece to deal with the aftermath. Sally is thrust into the role of handling Leonard’s affairs, a responsibility that falls to her almost immediately after his death. The narrative centres on her efforts to sort out the practicalities left behind, highlighting the sudden shift from ordinary life to managing the complications that arise when a close family member passes away unexpectedly. Thomas remains part of the story, witnessing Sally’s struggle and the impact of Leonard’s demise on those around him. The episode therefore weaves together the brief introduction of a new character, a sudden loss, and the ensuing duties that Sally must confront, all within the compact structure of a single instalment of A Roman Empire.
