Easter = chaos for many. Sitting down may be your aim, and Alone Australia is a great visual remedy. It’s back for its second series and this time it’s set in Kiwiland, so the weather is hasher and the contestants more determined… Check it out on SBS TV.

And speaking of excellent TV, we’re big fans of Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy (also on SBS for a second series), but rather than just watch him cook lovely food, we want to eat it as well. Enter his cookbook, The Tucci Table* – a good one to experiment with over the long weekend.

And because it’s Easter, here’s another fave for those of you who like to stick with tradition and eat fish on Good Friday… Nagi’s Crispy Skin Salmon recipe does what it says, and once you’ve nailed it, it will be a part of your regular rotation. Yummo…
