Rai 2 (until May 2010 Rai Due ) is the second Italian public television program. It started programming on November 4, 1961.

history

The program began on the anniversary of the end of the First World War in Italy with an announcement by the singer Mina . One of the first contributions was the play La Trincea ( Eng . The Trench ) by Giuseppe Dessi . Until 1975 the program was called Secondo Programma (Eng. Second Program) and until 1984 Rete 2 before it was called Rai Due and from 2010 as Rai 2 .

When it was founded, the program saw itself as a dynamic alternative to the first program, the later Rai 1 . In contrast to the first channel, journalists, for example, moderated the news broadcast instead of news anchors. The first director of news was Enzo Biagi .

It served as a stepping stone for many well-known Italian television stars such as Renzo Arbore and Mike Bongiorno .
