News: Coogan & Brydon's Latest Trip Confirmed For BBC2

The Trip to Italy

The BBC has confirmed that it will be screening The Trip to Italy on BBC2, starting on April 4. Directed again by the award winning Michael Winterbottom (The Trip, The Face Of An Angel, The Look of Love, 24 Hour Party People), The Trip to Italy once more stars Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon). Two men, six meals in six different places on a road trip around Italy. Piemonte, Liguria, Tuscany, Rome, Amalfi and ending in Capri. Rob and Steve are asked by The Observer to do another series of restaurant reviews. Rob, tired from the responsibilities of being the father of a young child, is looking for some adventure. Steve has been living a life of abstinence and hard work in Los Angeles but, now on a hiatus from his job, has the time to come back to Europe and wants to see his children. They talk about things like life, love, work and exile. They discuss Byron and Shelley, Romantic poets whose lives were defined by their time in Italy. We will see the journey they go on, the hotels they stay in, the restaurants they eat in, the kitchens and chefs that make the food and then the bill at the end.
