Episode 2

BBC One - Amanda & Alan's Italian Job, Series 2, Episode 2

Amanda and Alan take on their first project, designing a Tuscan living room.

Amanda and Alan take on their first project, transforming the old dining room into a Tuscan living room, and face their first hurdle, as the windows turn out to be unsalvageable.

Best pals Amanda and Alan take on their first major renovation project, transforming the old dining room into a Tuscan living room. Failing to reach agreement on the colour scheme, the two venture off to try and get some inspiration from the colourful fishing village of Riomaggiore. 

Colour choice becomes the least of their worries though, when they discover the windows of their 17th-century home are unsalvageable and must be made from scratch. Luckily, another old feature can be saved, and with the help of Scott, the DIY duo restore the original chestnut ceiling beams, and Alan finds his stride while creating a feature-panelled wall.

It’s not all hard graft though, as they venture out into the Apuan Alps and face their fears, taking flight with a 1,500 metre-long zip wire over the spectacular Lake Vagli.
