A Taste of the Sun: Venice

Chef Gino D'Acampo continues his Italian Escape in breathtaking Venice. His adventure begins when he is summoned for an appointment with a Venetian Countess. Gino has never met a ‘Contessa' before and although the two of them share a love of food, he remains slightly nervous about the encounter. He is keen to ask the Contessa about a kind of Venetian tapas called ‘cicchetti' – so together they take an enchanting gondola ride to discover the best finger-food in the city. Motivated by the experience, Gino creates his own platter of three different cicchetti on ciabatta, namely courgette fennel and caper, prawns on chilli mayonnaise and breaded cod on lemon mayonnaise. His succulent prawns and cod are bought fresh from the vibrant Rialto market. Eager to explore on his own, Gino then heads out of the city to the nearby island of Burano. Its eye-catching multi-coloured houses make Burano a popular tourist spot, but our chef's not here to see the beautiful sights, he's after one thing - the risotto. In local trattoria, Gino is astounded to witness, and take part in, a highly unusual method of cooking this special rice dish. Back on the rooftops of Venice, Gino rustles up his own creamy risotto with red radicchio, vibrant peas and Italian sausage

American Pickers

This isn't your grandmother's antiquing. The American Pickers are on a mission to recycle America, even if it means diving into countless piles of grimy junk or getting chased off a gun-wielding homeowner's land. Hitting back roads from coast to coast, the Pickers earn a living by restoring forgotten relics to their former glory, transforming one person's trash into another's treasure. The show follows the team as they scour the country for hidden gems in junkyards, basements, garages and barns, meeting quirky characters and hearing their amazing stories. If you think the antique business is all about upscale boutiques and buttoned-up dealers, this show may change your mind – and teach you a thing or two about American history along the way.
