Asterix y Gladiator

The Prefect of Gaul wants to give Caesar a present… the Gauls’ bard, Perganiedix, is an excellent choice! Captured by the Romans, Perganiedix is sent in chains to Caesar – which riles the Gauls no end. Asterix and Obelix head for Rome on a rescue mission, but finding the bard in the city is no mean task — Perganiedix is under lock and key at the Circus Maximus, condemned to be thrown to the lions. Asterix and Obelix can only reach their bard by becoming gladiators. Faced with a crowd-filled circus, will our heroes suffer from stagefright?
