In his prologue Lurcio mentions people only get married in Pompeii to swap partners.
Suddenly everyone in the Sextus household wants Lurcio to be out for the evening. They even pay him money.
Lurcio finds its strange as everyone has made plans for the evening, but they do not want him to be home alone.
Still Lurcio has plans of his own. Too woo a pretty new neighbour who has moved in. He will pretend to be Senator Sextus as she wants to talk to the head of the house.
To trick her into falling for Lurcio. He gets some love portions from the apothecary to put in the wine.
The taker of the love portion will fall for the first person they land eyes on. Unfortunately Lurcio goes out when the pretty neighbour takes the portion The first person she sees is Nausius.
The first series of Up Pompeii ends with a saucy romp. It has a well known cast with Lynda Baron and Mollie Sugden. I could never understand why Lurcio keep popping out when someone took the portion.
Lurcio can't help feeling that the household are trying to get rid of him, news of a pretty visitor leads to ideas of trickery, and a bit of something in the wine results in a lot of something in the air.
