Anton du Beke and Giovanni Pernice are trading the dance floor for the radiant island of Sicily.

Pernice will guide du Beke around his home of Sicily and uncover all the delights the Mediterranean island has to offer.

The pair will explore the towering Mount Etna and authentic old towns, taste Sicilian cuisine and polish off their dancing shoes for a tango.

Packed with sun, sea and plenty of adventure, du Beke and Pernice promise to take viewers on an unforgettable Mediterranean journey.

Anton du Beke said: “When I first heard about this trip it was pretty irresistible. What's not to love? It's all my favourite things, great food, great country and spending time in the sunshine with Giovanni. Marvellous!”

Giovanni Pernice commented: “To say this has been a dream project is an understatement! Taking Anton to my much-loved home of Sicily was simply Bellissima! We danced, we laughed, and had the time of our lives - with great culture, food and company. I cannot wait for viewers in the UK to come on this journey with us. See you in the Sicilian sun! Ciao.”

Anton and Giovanni: Adventures in Sicily will air on BBC One and be available on BBC iPlayer in 2023.
