Two episodes remain for Starz breakout hit, "Spartacus: Blood and Sand."

Those who hate Ilithyia (Viva Bianca) will have much more meat to grind their teeth on as the blond wife of Glaber has tables turned, and turned again. "She is a cat" said our Spartacus (Andy Whitfield).

Oh yes she is.

Lucretia (Lucy Lawless) and Batiatus (John Hannah) were a pair made for each other, and their perfect union, two social climbers who will stop at nothing to attain their goals, they manage to make their eternal bed in doing so.  John Hannah's Batiatus is off the hook evil in episode 112, and even worse in the finale.

Doctore (Peter Mensah) has a breakout moment too.
