The evening broadcast of ‘Pasapalabra’ on Antena 3 once again caught viewers’ attention with the appearance of four new celebrity guests. This week, in the studio of the show hosted by Roberto Leal, actors, writers, and TV presenters joined the contestants to help them win extra seconds for the final round ‘El Rosco’.
A strong roster of guests
Among the invited guests were: actor and reporter Sergio Pazos, actress Norma Ruiz, writer Manel Loureiro, and actress Adriana Torrebejano. Each is known for their work in film, television, or literature, and their participation added energy and intrigue to the show’s usual format.
Who are these celebrities
Sergio Pazos, originally from Ourense, became widely known to the public thanks to his work on ‘Caiga Quien Caiga’ in the late 1990s. In addition, he has appeared in popular Spanish series and films, including ‘Cuéntame cómo pasó’ and ‘Muertos de risa’.
Norma Ruiz from Madrid is one of the country’s most recognizable actresses. Her career spans film, theater, and television, and she gained her greatest fame for her role in the series ‘Yo soy Bea’. She has also appeared in projects such as ‘El Pueblo’ and ‘Amar es para siempre’.
Manel Loureiro, a writer and lawyer from Pontevedra, gained fame for the ‘Apocalipsis Z’ trilogy, which started as a blog and was adapted by Amazon Prime Video. His bibliography also includes ‘El último pasajero’ and a collaborative book set in the ‘Juego de Tronos’ universe.
Adriana Torrebejano from Barcelona is another star of the Spanish screen. She has appeared in the series ‘Hospital Central’, ‘Tierra de lobos’, ‘El secreto de Puente Viejo’, and recently in ‘Muertos S.L.’ and ‘Machos alfa’. In April, her new project ‘¿A qué estás esperando?’ premiered on Antena 3.
Significance for the format
The appearance of such diverse guests not only increases interest in the show, but also helps participants accumulate more time for the decisive round. The format of ‘Pasapalabra’ involves celebrities actively participating in the competitions, thereby influencing the contestants’ chances in the final.
In recent weeks, Spanish television has increasingly relied on guest stars to hold viewers’ attention. This approach has already proven effective in other popular shows. For example, sports broadcasts also feature celebrities to attract audiences, as seen at the Madrid tournament where three Italian tennis players were fighting for a spot in the quarterfinals—more details are available in the article on the key matches of the Mutua Madrid Open.
Context and trends
According to Antena 3, the participation of well-known personalities in ‘Pasapalabra’ has been one of the reasons for the show’s growing popularity. For viewers, it is a chance to see their favorite actors and authors in an unusual role, and for the guests themselves, an opportunity to present their new projects to a wider audience.
