The second series (6 episodes) of the Young Montalbano begins tomorrow on BBC4 at 9pm. It's in Italian with subtitles but still enjoyable.
I enjoyed Inspector Montalbano and this is a bit like Endeavor is to Inspector Morse. The young actor playing Montalbano is quite nice as well.

A new series of Cardinal started last Saturday night,Helen,in the same slot as Montalbano. There are 6 episodes of Cardinal ...2 at a time.... so I think that means Montalbano will be back a fortnight on Saturday.  |

A surprise last night .... a familiar face (if you watched The Sopranos) in unfamiliar surroundings - Dominic Chianese,who played Uncle Junior,made an appearance His Italian was impeccable ...made me wonder if it dubbed.
An excellent episode last night.  |

I've still to watch either of these episodes but was delighted that the Sky box picked up the first one from the 'next series' search. The first time that I can ever remember it working, so no need to have to watch within 30 days on iPlayer . I like to save them for when I've time to watch 'properly'!

I've read online that the rest of this series of Montalbano are repeats!!
Funny to make just two for a new series but there we are.  |

I may be dreaming this up, but I seem to recall we only got 2 episodes last year and reading somewhere that there were 4 made but either the BBC hadn't bought them, or were saving them for future times.
As I said don't quote me, it could have been about something else completely!!!

Looking in the TV listings what was following on from Mystery Road on BBC 4 tonight and see that Salvo and the gang are back in a new series.
I checked and it says - first aired 10/10/20.
So it's off to beautiful Vigāta, for a couple of hours forgetting all the gloom and doom of our present world. (apart from the odd couple of murders that is)  |

Oops I meant to post this earlier in the week, sorry. There is sadly only 2 in this series but it's better than nothing! We'll record and watch later.
