Sensualità a corte (Sensuality at Court) is an Italian sketch comedy television series, aired in many comedy programs since 2005.

Plot

The series describes the unlikely and demented adventures of Jean Claude, a homosexual baronet, and his despotic mother.

Although initially set in late 18th century France, the series actually contains many contemporary elements and characters.

Characters

Main

• Jean Claude: he is an effeminate and hysterical baronet, protagonist of the series. He is haunted by bad luck and lives in a complicated relationship with his wicked mother.

• Madre: literally "Mother", she is a haughty noblewoman, mother of Jean Claude. Touchy and selfish, she deeply hates her son and is perpetually in search of fame and youth.
• Madrina: she is Jean Claude's fairy godmother ("madrina" in Italian). Old and clumsy, her attempts to help her godson always end in tragedy.
• Cassandra: she is Jean Claude's wife. In the first seasons she does not realize her husband's homosexuality and tries to seduce him. Over time she becomes an ally and a good friend.
• Daiana: better known as Wonder Woman, she is a mustachioed and masculine superheroine, as well as Jean Claude's girlfriend from season 5. She tries to help Jean Claude with harebrained plans that always end in disaster.
• Jean Claude's lovers: in the early seasons, Jean Claude changes partners every season, and is usually unreciprocated. Among them are Batman (Renato, season 1-3, 11-12), Darth Vader (Stefano, season 2), Diabolik (Armando, season 3) and Robin Hood (Titti, season 4).

Secondary

• Colonel Gustav von Outlet: he is an evil scientist who tries to kill Madre or Jean Claude.
• Jean-François: he is Jean Claude's ruthless twin brother and, like him, is completely inept. He is identical to his twin, except for a black mustache and heterosexuality. He plots with Madre to kill Jean Claude.
• Aunt Genoveffa: she is Jean Claude's despotic and talkative aunt. In the season 12 she is the main antagonist, leading SPECTRE to kill her sister Madre.
• Padre: literally "Father", he is Jean Claude's father; he appears in very few episodes, and dies from tartar.
