Great Italian Television

Great Italian television – strange words to hear together, especially these days. This month I will lose all my television channels as the move to digital begins. But I have not bought a digibox. Why? Well Italian television is quite poor. There are only a few programmes throughout the week that are actually worth watching.
Having said that, occasionally there are some great television films “made in Italy” and ten of these, in collaboration with La Gazzetta dello Sport, are being released on dvd. The collana begins with probably the best film I have seen whilst living in Italy – Giovanni Falcone, l’uomo che sfidò Cosa Nostra. I have been unable to find this film in any shop and I don’t think it has been repeated (they tend repeat only the same few things). This is definitely and opportunity not to miss.
Available weekly from Tuesday 6 October.
