Or, what I saw as I ran to turn off the tv
The television programme Domenica In has been shown Sunday afternoons on RAI Uno for many years, notwithstanding my best efforts to avoid it. From what I have seen, when forced to watch in other people’s homes, its main audience is middle aged men sleeping on the sofa after a long lunch. The non-start entertainment lasts from 2 in the afternoon until 6:30 in the evening, just as the effects of the lasagna and red wine are starting to wear off.
Thanks to our pals at You Tube, who watch all of the show so we don’t have to, here are all of the things I missed this Sunday (and the two minutes I saw by mistake).
At 2 pm:
Opening dance routine (I’m not watching because I’ve got better things to do):
At 3 pm:
Italian superstar Ron sings his greatest misses (but I’m still working on my book):
Ow! My ears hurt!
At 4:30 pm
Italian singer Alexia meets Luisa Corna (but I’m still RAI tv free):
“Truly sweet”
At 6:15 pm
I turn on the tv for the soccer results and discover this week’s theme is what Beethoven would sound like if he and Freddie Mercury collaborated on Italian television dance routines:
It makes you proud to be European
At 6: 16 pm
I turn off the sound so I can concentrate on the teletext.
