BBC - Rome Unpacked Series 1 (2018) Part 1

Rome Unpacked Series 1

To really understand Rome, you must understand its people - or the mob, as they were known in ancient times. As Giorgio Locatelli and Andrew Graham-Dixon explore Italy's iconic capital, they are in search of the generations of ordinary Romans who have left their mark on the city's culture and gastronomy.

Part 1

In the first of two programmes, Giorgio leads Andrew to some of his personal favourite districts including Garbatella, Italy's first `garden suburb', which boasts vibrant market stalls and village architecture, where he introduces him to the simplest Roman food. In turn, Andrew introduces Giorgio to some of the most moving pictures by Caravaggio, in what was once the city's foremost church for poor pilgrims.
