# Bromans

Bromans is a British reality television series on ITV2. The contestants compete against each other in Ancient Rome-themed physical challenges. Their girlfriends join them to provide support and also compete in their own contests. The winning "gladiator" receives £10,000.
The gladiators are overseen by the emperor's right hand man, Dominus, played by Tom Bell, and mentored by Doctore, played by David McIntosh. They meet with the unseen Emperor each week and select two gladiators for banishment. The other contestants choose who they want to remain in competition, and the gladiator with the least support is eliminated. It all concludes with the final four gladiators competing in the Emperor's Games, where a series of challenges determine the overall winner.
The series was cancelled in April 2018.
