"I went there years back and received very inspired, so it felt like the right time to return to that ideas." Unsurprisingly, probably, some of Packham's starting aspects was Cleopatra-- whether representations of the fantastic Egyptian queen from her very own opportunity, or even her widely known analysis through Elizabeth Taylor in the 1963 blockbuster contrary Richard Burton.
