About this product

Product Information

This BBC TV mini-series is an adaptation of John Mortimer's novel of the same name, and follows a family as they attempt to enjoy a relaxing holiday in Tuscany. Molly Pargeter takes her family to the luxurious destination but spends more time trying to find out who owns the villa they are staying in than she does relaxing on the beach. Meanwhile, Molly's father ditches the family in pursuit of a romantic liaison, providing some welcome comic relief from the sinister dealings that Molly uncovers.

  • Lovers of Italy will delight in this film

    A fascinating plot, with sub-plots, and a great cast makes this one of my favourite films about Italy in the 1990s. Susan Fleetwood and John Geilgud are at some of their best acting this John Mortimer intrigue. Filmed in the 80/90s when we were staying in Florence when Mortimer was there with the crew. The story is very plausible for Tuscany and the journey to see the Piero della Francesca Trail is fascinating. Each episode is introduced by Carmina Valles the wonderful theme music written by Nigel Hess and sung by Chameleon with Olive Simpson, soprano.

  • Absorbing and beautifully acted.

    I love this film. It is almost like going on holiday oneself. The characters are beautifully observed and the story is sad, happy, funny and true to life. The acting is wonderful. See it.
