ITV have made a six part series based on Gerald Durrell's triology of his childhood on Corfu and is due to be broadcast soon. It was apparently filmed on Corfu in September 2015. Did anyone see any of the filming?

Apparently, two of the lovely donkeys from Donkey Rescue appear in it. I hope they were paid a good sum for being 'extras' !

They don't seem to have announced a starting date for it yet. I'm off on holiday for two and a half weeks on Sunday, so I hope I don't miss the beginning!

I wasn't lost - I was just taking an interesting detour!

Only some parts were filmed in Corfu. Perhaps someone knows. Nice to see a programme without a lot of violence.

To my knowledge, it was all filmed in Corfu. The crew were there for about 6 weeks late last year.
Halikounas was the lake (also known as Lake Korrison). Also spotted The Old Fortress, Varipades, Arillas, Kontakali to name but a few. |

House south of Corfu town just nip down to sunbath and give a priest a fag in Barbati a view out over the cliffs near Sidari. All a bit confusing.

They obviously had to use a bit of poetic licence as the series is set in the 1930's so they had to avoid the more modern areas.

A second series has been commissioned to start shooting in the summer, so that should mean plenty more opportunities for star spotting!
