I see that A PLACE IN THE SUN: HOME OR AWAY on CH 4 Friday 15th May is featuring Perthshire in Scotland and Cosenza in Italy.

Shame, I haven't got my big dish up yet in Scalea. Maybe I will try TVOD if it works here.

Hi Pompeyron,
I think you should watch the entire program. The Perthshire scenery will match what you see in Cosenza---The weather,however, is not as good as Italy.

Thanks Billy, it wasn't a dig at perthshire. Its just that whenever I've seen these programmes I want to see the overseas part which normally starts half way through. As people on here may generally want to look at Italy I thought I'd provide my infinite wisdom.

I love going north of the border, my Dad lived on the Isle of Skye and is now buried there so I love the place and visit when possible.

Enjoyed the program last night with several views of Scalea----Centro Storico,Talao tower and the pedestrianised area etc. It makes a change from the Tropea and Pizzo area which has had more publicity recently. I see that the program was filmed in Autumn 2007 but I think it was it's first time on TV.
This was Jasmine's second visit to Scalea. She did another Home and Away program about 5 years ago when one of the properties featured then was on Via Faro.
Hope you all enjoyed the Perthshire scenery as well.
Regards, Billy.
