Anton & Giovanni’s Adventures in Sicily

Episode 3

For the third and final part of their trip around Sicily, the boys are again joined by Giovanni’s former dance partner Rose Ayling-Ellis as they make their way through the centre of the island. Giovanni has arranged a lesson in pasta-making, where Rose and Anton uncover the secrets of one of Italy’s famous exports. Then, before the boys head for a morning of golf, Rose is treated to a spectacular synchronized swimming show with Anton and Giovanni performing. The boys then travel together to the outskirts of Palermo, where Giovanni has lined up an overnight stay with a group of beer-brewing monks, so that they can experience a simpler way of life, with work and prayers at its heart. Finally, they head into Palermo, Gio’s hometown, where Anton meets Giovanni’s parents and unveils a surprise birthday present.
