Plot[edit]
Sicily (Southern Italy). Inspector Salvo Montalbano, the police chief (commissario) of Vigàta, a fictional town in the fictional province of Montelusa (Province of Ragusa), is a gruff character who is responsible and serious at work, but often also open and friendly with people he knows he can trust. Montalbano must investigate various criminal acts in his area which, thanks to his intelligence and the help of numerous assistants, even outside the police, he always manages to solve by reconstructing the exact events. Among his colleagues at the police station are his deputy, Inspector Domenico 'Mimì' Augello, Detective Giuseppe Fazio, officer Galluzzo and the awkward policeman Agatino Catarella. Among his external collaborators are his Swedish friend Ingrid Sjöström (she lives in Vigata), the journalist Nicolo Zito, Dr. Pasquano and, more rarely, Adelina, his cook. In his private life, Salvo carries on a long-distance relationship with Livia Burlando, with whom he has a sometimes tempestuous relationship but within which love always prevails.

The Series 10 episodes (27 and 28)— 'A Delicate Matter' and 'The Mud Pyramid' — were released for streaming by MHz Networks on 28 June 2016.[17]
Filming finished at the end of July 2019 on three new episodes — 'La rete di protezione' and 'Il metodo Catalanotti' based on full-length novels by Andrea Camilleri, not yet translated into English and 'Salvo amato Livia mia' based on a short story from 'Gli Arancini di Montalbano' by Andrea Camilleri, not yet translated into English. These episodes are expected to be shown in Italy early 2020.
Production[edit]
Given the success of the Andrea Camilleri novels, publishing by Sellerio (Palermo), RAI with Palomar [it], commissioned a television series, in co-operation with Sweden's SVT, Sveriges Television, of most of the novels and short stories. Each closely follows the plot of the novels, in some cases joining several short stories. Alberto Sironi has directed the entire series. Luca Zingaretti had to adjust his accent to Sicilian having been born in Rome. Camilleri was teaching at the time when Zingaretti was studying at the Accademia Nazionale di Arte Drammatica Silvio D'Amico. Austrian actress Katharina Böhm, then Lina Perned, both dubbed by Claudia Catani, and now Sonia Bergamasco play his girlfriend Livia, while Cesare Bocci plays his deputy, and Peppino Mazzotta plays his most trusted detective Fazio.
Although Camilleri set his books in a fictionalized version of the province of Agrigento, much of the show is filmed in the province of Ragusa. The exteriors in some episodes, such as de la Mànnara (Fornace Penna) were actually filmed in Sampieri, while Montalbano's headquarters are in Scicli, as are the offices of Commissioner Bonetti-Alderighi (actually that of the mayor of Scicli). Other scenes were filmed in Ragusa Ibla, Modica, Donnafugata Castle, the port of Donnalucata, Marina di Ragusa, Comiso, Santa Croce Camerina, and other sites in south-eastern Sicily. The opening shots of the programme also show Guerrieri Viaduct, which is in Modica.
The show was initially launched on Rai 2, but moved to Rai 1 from the third series onwards based on viewing figures.
Music for the soundtrack was composed by Franco Piersanti.
International transmission[edit]

'Excursion to Tindari' and 'Montalbano's Croquettes' ('Gli arancini di Montalbano') were first shown in the UK on BBC Four in December 2008[18] and 'Montalbano's Croquettes', episode 8, was repeated in December 2010[19] and 'Excursion to Tindari', episode 5, in August 2011.
