S00E62 - Series 7 - Shortened Versions: Episode 8

Michael continues his railway journey from Sicily’s capital, Palermo, through the ancient town of Agrigento and the port of Siracusa to Europe’s largest volcano, Mount Etna. Michael explores Sicilian life under the dictatorship of Benito Mussolini. From Agrigento he heads inland to Enna and the picturesque but remote village of Gangi. There he seeks the protection of a local historian as he traces the story behind this notorious mafia hideout of the 1930s. Michael takes the helm to explore the port of Siracusa by boat and enjoys a sumptuous picnic of Sicilian specialities before visiting a controversial monument, which depicts a dark chapter in Italian history. Michael concludes his Sicilian journey on the circular railway around Mount Etna, aboard the sleek, futurist-inspired train inaugurated by Mussolini in 1937, La Littorina.
