As a taster to the new series starting next week, there's another chance to see
Antonio Carluccio's gastronomic tour of Italian communities in Britain, originally shown in the last series as three weekly episodes.
First to the Continis in Edinburgh, and to the delicatessen run by three generations of the family. For Carlo and Olivia Contini's 40th wedding anniversary, Carluccio cooks meatloaf, lamb and spaghetti.
On to Bedford, where he surprises an Italian football team with a post-match banquet of mulled wine, chicken-liver crostini and pork with sauerkraut.
And finally, a visit to Carlucclo's old friend, the distinguished sculptor Eduardo Paolozzi. While the chef tries his hand at sculpture, Paolozzi prepares rabbit stew and polenta. Director Jeremy Mills
