For those of you who are thinking of a holiday in Italy this year, I would like to recommend Alex Polizzi's latest series on Channel 5 on Friday evenings. The last part of the series, which is to be shown this coming Friday (14 November), focuses on the Puglia region of southern Italy, where I went last autumn on a JY holiday. I have thoroughly enjoyed these programmes - Alex is very knowledgeable and a lot more relaxed than she appears on programmes such as "Hotel Inspector" - and, besides being a reminder of some very happy holidays, they have helped bring some sunshine into this grey and damp autumn.
If you have missed the programmes, you can find them on Demand5 until November 2015.
