London, February 2 - Spartacus: Blood and Sand, dubbed the most explicit television show ever, has gone one step further in shocking senses after filming a raunchy foursome.

The series, featuring graphic violence, strong sexual content, and major profanity, stars Rebus star John Hannah opposite Lucy Lawless from Xena: Warrior Princess.

The pair plays a kinky married couple who get intimate with each other and two other slave girls in the shot, reports The Sun.

Lucy said: "A lot of people are going to be shocked and will turn their TVs off, but for those who have the stomach for it, this is a bloody good yarn."

The epic follows the story of the historical figure of Spartacus, a Roman gladiator, who later became the leader of a major slave uprising against the Roman Republic. (ANI)
