Overview

The adventures of the marshal of the carabinieri Giovanni Rocca, played by the great Gigi Proietti. Definitely one of the most successful Rai fictions ever, the series, after the first eight episodes broadcast in 1996, went on for six seasons, ending only in 2008. For over a decade the investigations and the private life of the marshal of Viterbo , born from an idea by Laura Toscano, have fascinated the television audience, making them become attached to characters such as the beautiful pharmacist Margherita (Stefania Sandrelli) or the brigadier Cacciapuoti (Sergio Fiorentini).

Overview

This season, too, the Marshal must balance family and work, and it's not easy when Margherita, just days before her wedding, is arrested for the murder of her ex-husband, or when their honeymoon is interrupted by a murder. Furthermore, the Marshal must confront a serial killer who preys on young girls: the first is a single mother, the second is the sister of Corporal Banti. Fortunately, the Marshal intervenes just in time to prevent the killer from killing his daughter, Daniela. Rocca then has to give in to Margherita's desire for motherhood, and the two win custody of Tommy, the newborn son of the killer's first victim. Another happy event in the Rocca household occurs when Giacomo's girlfriend discovers she is pregnant.
