BBC Two - Second Chance Summer: Tuscany, Series 1, Episode 2

The group open a new bed and breakfast venture.

Ten strangers take over the running of an agriturismo farm in Tuscany. Looking to open a new bed and breakfast venture, the group start to renovate an empty outbuilding.

After a week in Tuscany, the group are finally starting to settle into rural living and their new home in the countryside.

Looking to expand the farm's potential by opening a new bed and breakfast venture, the group start to renovate an empty outbuilding. When the first guests arrive, all does not go according to plan with temperamental Tuscan plumbing putting a spanner in the works of their grand ambitions.

With autumn just around the corner, they also have to face the harsh realities of rustic life when a Tuscan storm threatens to ruin the farm's entire crop of Sangiovese grapes. It is all hands on deck as the group work together to pull off the ambitious grape harvest and rescue the farm's biggest income. The stress and strain of living and working together means temper start to fray, as some members of the group begin to find life in Tuscany less than idyllic.
