Anna and Marika tell us the story of Rosina, who in the midst of deception and intrigue, ends up getting married. But to whom? The one she loves, or the one who wants her at all costs?

Magpies [gazze ladre] in folklore are known to be attracted by shiny things. Rossini's opera La Gazza Ladra recounts the story of Ninetta, a servant girl. She is wrongly accused of stealing the silverware that the family magpie stole.

Ninetta is in prison, condemned to death, and things are looking very bleak, indeed. Don't worry though; in the end, love and justice win out, and everyone except the magistrate lives happily ever after.

Marika and Anna take us to a famous restaurant on the banks of the Tiber River in Rome. Tune in to discover what's so special about it. (It has to do with movies and movie stars.) And... maybe you can guess what pasta dish Anna is going to order!

Back in the days when people traveled on horseback, Al Biondo Tevere was a convenient rest stop just outside the walls of the city. People would feed and water their horses, and trade what was in their bundles of food with their fellow travelers. Later, it became a proper restaurant and many famous people became regulars, including filmmakers, Pasolini and Bertolucci. Signora Giuseppina shares the story.

Don't miss the last part of Marika and Anna's encounter with Signora Giuseppina of the Trattoria al Biondo Tevere. You'll hear about a 56 year-old fridge, five weddings in one day, and sheep who do gardening.

Anna and Marika take you to a special shoe store that sells only Italian footwear, and only women's shoes.

Diego is very knowledgeable about his collection of women's shoes and handbags, all made in Tuscany, exclusively in genuine leather. He proposes models that are beautifully fashionable, but are at the same time comfortable enough to wear every day.

Find out what's so special about the restaurant where Anna and Marika are about to have lunch.

What did people eat in Ancient Rome? Paolo, the owner of the restaurant, tells us about the history of the place and talks about the most popular dishes on the menu based on actual recipes from Roman times.

Antonio tells us about the two islands off Calabria. The Isola di Dino is the larger of the two and he tells us the legend of how the island was named. Isola della Cirella is the other island.

Italy has an important tradition of auto d'epoca (vintage cars) and auto da corsa (race cars) and RAI TV has dedicated a documentary series to this topic. This first segment is introduced by former racing driver René Arnoux, who competed in 12 Formula One seasons. You might notice his French accent. It also features Silvia Nicolis, daughter of the collector of vintage cars, Luciano Nicolis.

There are a great many unique automobiles in the collection. In the early twentieth century, there was no metallic paint, so other solutions were found to produce a special finish, such as Lunar Chrome, a technique using mother of pearl and fish scales.

The passion for vintage cars can become a real disease. Being the owner of a car and being a collector are two different things.

We see the underside of a Ferrari as an inspection is carried out. Carmine Sessa, a classic car expert, talks about the Spider model and the Daytona model, which was built in a limited quantity, almost exclusively for the American market. Fun "fact": Some say the yellow color was named Fly, standing for "Ferrari Light yellow." The color was suggested by Fiamma Breschi (a close friend of Enzo Ferrari's). Fiamma means "flame" but she didn't want the color to be Giallo Fiamma "flame yellow" (named after her) and suggested "fly."
