Airdate: Rex in Rome

Made four years after the last series, that favourite Euro-pooch is undergoing a language switch.

Everyone’s favourite European, crime-busting dog, Inspector Rex, is returning to screens in a new series, Rex in Rome.

Made four years after the last series, it is now an Austrian-Italian production. His new partner is Italian detective Lorenzo Fabbri (Kaspar Capparoni). The series will air in Australia in Italian with English subtitles, but is followed directly afterwards by a repeat of the German-language Inspector Rex.

A rather odd transition each week for fans…

It premieres at 7:30pm Thursday December 4th on SBS.

Rex in Rome: The Meeting – Brand new season Inspector Rex! Rex returns in a new series set in Italy, to help his new partner Inspector Fabbri solve murder cases. In this first episode, a jewellery robbery gone wrong sparks a chain of mysterious murders. Someone is killing the thieves as they are on the run, and when a body is found buried in the grounds of an Italian villa; the death is linked to another murder that has just taken place in Austria. Inspector Fabbri of the Rome Police and Chief Inspector Hedl of the Austrian Crime Squad begin a joint investigation of the double murder case. Stars Kaspar Capparoni as Inspector Fabbri, Denise Zich as Inspector Hedl, Fabio Ferri as Morini and Martin Weiner as Kunz.

  1. I have just started watching Inspector Rex again after seeing the last Rex in Rome where he was shot. I have Mad Max who looks and acts just like him. It was too raw after he appeared to die. I was like watching a video of a recently deceased loved one (which Rex is). OMG – I’m too soft. I cry at RSPCA adds!

  2. I was so upset Rex was shot and then the next week it’s back to the old Rex. Don’t keep us in suspense, please let Rex live. He is a legend or as my son would say “a unit”. We love him.
