⭐⭐⭐⭐

Don Matteo is a TV series set in the town of Gubbio in Perugia, Italy. It has been airing in Italy since 2000 and still ongoing. The episodes starting from Season 1 are available to borrow from Hoopla through our county library. I have seen 4 episodes so far and they are good. The series is in Italian with English subtitles.

Don Matteo is a Catholic priest who has a keen sense of people and circumstances. He is able and more than willing to help the local police in solving crimes, just like Father Brown. His best friend is one of the policemen. Terrence Hill stars as the title character Don Matteo. He is 82 now and still filming the series.

Highly recommended for TV mystery viewers who don't mind reading subtitles.
