Joanna Lumley’s Great Cities of the World
9pm, ITV
Dragging her suitcase along a cobbled ancient road, it doesn’t take long for a handsome stranger to pick Lumley up on his Vespa and whisk her away to Rome for a few days (“Fantastica!” she yells as they speed off). Once in the Italian capital, our velvety voiced tour guide uses a packet of spaghetti for a history demonstration, chats with the city’s oldest Hollywood-star photographer and gets her hands dirty in a top restaurant kitchen.
