While we were taking photos near the Pantheon on Friday we noticed a sound guy walking with a crew. When we checked the photo we realised that it was a Striscia la Notizia crew with Dario Ballantini in costume. His theatrical make up was really well done.
Striscia la Notizia is a popular Italian TV program which is on most nights and has satirical segments. Politicians are a common target and the Angelino Alfano character regularly appears on Striscia. Politicians are doorstopped on a daily basis in Piazza Montecitorio -Palazzo Montecitorio is where the lower house of Italy's Parliament is located.

We missed Striscia on Friday night as we went out for dinner.
