This video looks further at particular cognate groups, not only between English and Italian, but also between Spanish and Italian. Dundas selects a limited number of cognate groups (not all of them, since timing does not allow for this) and explains the relationship between these words in all three languages, paying particular attention to vowel and consonant mutations in the middle of words and also to changes at the end of those words.
I also noticed some of these with Portuguese, Catalan and a minor degree Romanian.
