BBCs Pompeii: The Last Day. Watched it last night. Excellent and to the point. The few fictional characters are inspired by the known owners of the best houses, the casts and skeletons found, and the objects on their bodies or lying nearby; it includes Herculaneum. The eruption effects and the actions taken by Pliny the Elder follow Pliny the Youngers observations. You can watch it in full (and rinse off your mind the last awful movie). youtu.be/PlZ-SGfp6Os
