If Ciro makes it out of this season alive then he is a very clever man.

I think Pietro is 'putting it on' with the hope of being moved to a less secure unit.

Me too - a second season would be brilliant. With how popular it was in Italy and how well it has been sold overseas they'd be mad not to.

Going to watch episode 9 tonight. Absolutely superb TV and I can't wait to see in which direction it goes next. Already know something I shouldn't through reading the thread but I wanted to mention it on here anyway.

As I'm sure you are aware they start filming Season 2 next month and it will air August/September time.

I watched the last of this over Xmas - enjoyable stuff, in a grim, depressing, reportage kind of way - they certainly don't try to glamorise the Mafia like some tv or film depictions.

I still didn't master Italian by the way, so I'll be watching season 2, if only for that reason.

So (like Romanzo Criminale?) this is a TV series based on a cinema film?

What channel? If it's Sky, no chance!

Yes this was on Sky Atlantic and still is available 'on demand' for those of you still to view this masterpiece.

I have not seen the film yet but they both share the same title and location where it is set.

Season 2 starts 10th May on Sky Atlantic
