Doc 2, one of the most anticipated series of the year, returns from 13 January on Rai1. There will be new faces in the ward, but the “new entry” (if you can define it that way) is the heaviest virus entry in the internal medicine department of the Ambrosian Polyclinic and unfortunately, as we know, not only there. The pandemic has changed our lives and, as the writers had already explained immediately after the end of the first season, you could not go back to the set of a medical drama without talking about Covid. The virus, however, will not – by choice – be the protagonist. For Andrea Fanti, interpreted by Luca Argentero, it’s time for new stories, and who knows if even new loves (spoilers forbidden!). His character is inspired by Pierdante Piccioni, the doctor who after an accident has no longer had the memory of the last twelve years of his life. A character to whom Argentero feels strongly attached, but in which he is not afraid of being trapped: «I have always seen this series as an opportunity. Doc is such a nuanced character that I think he can stick around for a long time, but that doesn’t scare me. I see no contraindications and I am very proud of the work we have done ».
The group is (very) united: Matilde Gioli, Sara Lazzaro, Pierpaolo Spollon, Simona Tabasco, Silvia Mazzieri, Alberto Malanchino. Gianmarco Saurino, Giusy Buscemi and Alice Arcuri. And he also demonstrated this during the press conference remotely from the studios where the scenes were shot inside the hospital for seven months. «My character has taught me a lot, even to let myself go, to be less Turin (laughs, ed). I became more direct, more transparent “,” continued the actor. The pandemic: “We shot with suits” explained the director Beniamino Catena who, together with Giacomo Martelli, directed the episodes, “All the artists wore all the principals of safety, we have understood even more the doctors who work in these conditions in hospitals ».
The numbers: the first season of the TV series (aired in spring 2020, in full pandemic, and then in October of the same year) reached peaks of 8.9 million viewers. “Doc it was sold abroad even before it was aired, “explains Matilde Bernabei, president of Lux Vide, which produces the series together with Rai Fiction.” At the moment, 100 countries have bought it. And Sony bought the format to do it again in English ». The secret of the series? “The group is made up of professionals who do their work with passion and compassion,” says Lux Vide CEO Luca Bernabei. To find out if there will be a third season, he jokes, “we will need to see the ratings on Thursday: generally, ten minutes after they come out I get the call. Of course we are ready ».
