Saber y Ganar is one of the most legendary competitions in Spanish television. It doesn’t quite like the popularity of other formats like Pasapalabra, but it’s one of those formats with less unnecessary fun and more questions. All this with some changes in testing but keeping the essence.
One of the keys to the longevity of the program that has already served On television for 26 consecutive years since its 1997 premiereis that the same people acted in the movie all this time. Jordi Hurtado continues to introduce him and act like he’s the first day old. Immortal Catalan chief At the age of 65, he is still at the bottom of the canyon, he would not quit his job if it was up to him.. “I will not retire! I will continue every afternoon at La 2 de Televisión Española in Saber y Ganar,” he said in a statement posted on the RTVE website on his last birthday.
Luis Larrodera replaces Jordi Hurtado in Saber y Ganar
Unfortunately, time does not pass in vain, and Sergi Schaaff, the creator and director of the competition, passed away recently. We also recently lived Retirement of legendary Juanjo Cardenal, voice of the show, replacement by Elisenda Roca. Pilar Vázquez and Jordi Hurtado continue at the foot of the canyon, but both are absent. remember when The server was out and needed to be replaced?
The part we are talking about is spring 2016. Saber y Ganar’s driver, from 9 May to 8 June, a minor medical intervention. It was nothing serious and he was able to return normally, but that sick leave left him unable to present the program for the first time in his 19-year history. During this time, he was replaced by Luis Larrodera..
Premiered… in the Rafa Castaño memorial program!
Surely you know Rafa Castaño from his time in Pasapalabra, where he won the record jackpot of 2,272,000 euros, but this was not his first television success. He previously competed in Saber y Ganar one of the selected participants who reached the maximum number of programs: 100 (some of them were invited again and managed to reach 200). When someone reaches triple digits, a special program is prepared for him in which he competes only, and special tests with higher than normal prizes and questions on the subjects he is an expert are prepared for. After that, your participation ends.
Coincidentally, the day of the homage to Sevillian May 3, 2016, first day of Jordi Hurtado’s absence. The Catalan pilot’s leave period began six days later, but as it was a special program and did not include the three competitors, it was probably recorded later, and therefore the usual presenter was no longer there. A very special premiere that Luis Larrodera will remember in these days of Rafa’s rise to fame.
