Hotel Portofino

Bella intends to build a spa, but her plans go over budget; the hotel has an anonymous inspection while Bella deals with the unexpected return of someone from her past.

Cecil tries to win back Bella's affections; Lucian and Constance confess their mutual attraction, and Nish targets Mussolini's fascists.

Cecil begins to realise he may be getting dangerously out of his depth in his illegal business dealings with Danioni and the owner of the local casino, Luigi Farrino.

Rose and Alice spring surprises on their returns to Portofino, and Cecil schemes to take control of the Hotel and warn off Marco.

Rose's clumsy attempt to resolve her marital difficulties with Lucian ends in embarrassing failure and Bella is forced to contemplate making an intervention.

As the Ainsworth family and their guests gather for a gala evening at the local casino, Lucian and Rose reach a point of crisis in their marriage.
