Excellent from start to finish. Hungover on the sofa one night and no remote in easy reach I found myself watching a subtitled Italian programme. Not usually a fan of such things but I was hooked straight away. I loved every second of it, the characters are compelling and the scenery is magical. The stories unfold like satin sheets and being a foodie I adore the culinary thread that is woven into the plot. (I have now made 'Aubergine Parmigiano' for the first time as a result.) I'd never heard of 'The young Montalbano' before or the original series 'Inspector Montalbano'. I've now bought the original series too and an Italian language course to help me understand and enjoy it to the fullest.
