Affari – Business
Episode 3, Jan 26, 01:00 AM
Ian and Dick, with their pidgin Italian vocabulary, clumsily start a new business importing sportswear and rugby shirts from the UK. Their main target, however, is to achieve an exclusive agreement from an up-market vineyard estate to export wine to the UK.
The unfolding of a cunning plan to achieve this goal leads to the introduction of “Big Teddy” – an outrageous, impudent and shameless character to help them. The scene is set for this nouveau riche Lancashire mill owner to come to terms with the aristocratic, noble, ‘gentleman owner’ of a prestigious Italian estate. Will the resulting business presentation end up a complete debacle or resounding success – or perhaps both?
