Rob and Rylan's Grand Tour - Episode Guide

Rob and Rylan begin their journey in Venice – coming face-to-face with one of the largest paintings on canvas in the world, Tintoretto‘s Il Paradiso.

They also discover the artistic legacy of Canaletto, before heading to Murano, an island in the Venetian lagoon, to try glass-blowing. Rob attempts to fulfil a lifelong dream, by conducting Vivaldi's Four Seasons in the church where it was first performed, while Rylan discovers the hidden side of Venice's famous Carnival. Finally, both Rob and Rylan step out of their comfort zone by donning drag and taking to the city's Grand Canal, alongside twenty other drag queens.

Rob and Rylan arrive in the majestic Renaissance city of Florence, the city where art changed the world.

The duo set out to discover how Grand Tourists tried to uncover the secrets of the Renaissance, getting up close and personal with Michelangelo's David, sampling the offal food Grand Tourists ate and discovering a pioneering female Renaissance artist. And Rylan realises he's closer to a Renaissance man than he thinks.

In Rome, Rob and Rylan turn themselves into a painting by Caravaggio, try to get the Grand Tourist look, and discover the shocking story of the singers known as 'castrati'.
