What are people buying?

I bought some Foundry ancient civilians "angry farmers" and "revolting civilians". These are to be herdsmen types for my Trojan forces.

Who is Don Camillo?

Don Camillo is an Italian Priest in the Po valley, and the stories are about him and his worst enemy (best friend) Peppone in immediate post war Italy.

They are wry, funny and feel very personal. It is the first time all the stories have been in English.

There was a series of franco/italian films in the 60s and in 1980 the BBC did a se8es with Brian Blessed as Peppone.

Brian Blessed

always watchable. I've never heard of the series, will check it out.

[BaronVonWreckedoften]

Certainly always hearable - even several counties away.

[FreddBloggs]

Not the loudest British actor though....

Brian Blessed

always watchable. I've never heard of the series, will check it out.

Let me know if you find it. It’s not on iPlayer and YouTube only has the films from the 50s and 60s

[FreddBloggs]

As far as I am aware, it never had a video or dvd release. Or even repeat showings beyond its original repeat.

Sounds like an Italian Father Brown.

No, no crimes....

Mostly it is poking fun at extremism (communists vs church), and how they can get around their differing beliefs to get on with daily life.
