Sicily. (Taormina, to be precise.) Another posh hotel - The San Domenico Palace. It's actually filmed there, see here. Another group of guests and staff. Grand Hotel with sex and weird music.
Visitors include an America-Sicilian dynasty: F. Murray Abraham, sex addict Michael Imperioli and (initially) feminist Adam DiMarco, Jennifer Coolidge (and assistant Hayley Lu Richardson - The Edge of Seventeen) and husband John Gries, competitive ex college pals Theo James and Will Sharpe plus wives Aubrey Plaza and Meghann Fahy, and Tom Hollander (fabulous) and Leo Woodall. Front of house is Sabrina Impacciatore, Eleonora Romandini. Girls of the night: Simona Tabasco and Beatrice Granno (singer). You don't exactly feel for any of the characters really.
Guys take note - don't take your shirt off unless you're absolutely ripped.
Cristobal Tapia de Veer's odd music is ever-present, photographed by Xavier Grobet. Has rather annoying inter-scene shots of sea etc.
Seven episodes for HBO.
