Michael Portillo's Long Weekends: Series 1

£14.99

Released: 31st March 2025. From Madrid to Milan, Michael visits three of Europe's most exciting cities. Uniting Michael's own fascinating experiences of these places with the insights of in-the-know locals, Long Weekends is about seeing iconic monuments while also uncovering secret neighbourhoods and bars, beloved food markets and recommended hotels while meeting the people who make them so unforgettable. This is the true insiders' travel guide. In the vibrant, bustling Spanish capital Madrid, Michael enjoys an Ecuadorian feast, tries suckling pig at the world's oldest restaurant, and visits El Teatro Real opera house and the Royal Palace. Michael explores historic Prague, from the castle to St Vitus Cathedral, samples a traditional Chlebicky open sandwich, and discovers a Soviet nuclear bunker at his hotel. In Milan, Italy's capital of fashion, design and industry, Michael races fast cars, see the sites from the back of a 1960s Lambretta and learns the skills of Italian coffee making.
