Saturday's
prime time
television offer
is dominated by two live debate formats.
On one side
Saturday Deluxe
, the weekly version
premium
of
Telecinco
its brand
Sálvame
;
and on the other side
La Sexta noche
, the political gathering program of the
Atresmedia
network
.
In this context,
TVE
launches this Saturday (10.00 pm) its great bet of this season:
The first question
, a new space similar in terms of format -live debate-, but whose identity remains halfway to the products with which intends to compete.
"We are not going to deal with the political part", guaranteed the director of Entertainment of RTVE,
Toñi Prieto
, during the presentation of
The First Question
.
"It will be a program about what citizens want to know in a fun and entertaining way," she added.
"We want to give viewers content that is completely different from what they are seeing on other channels," she settled, distancing herself from the formats settled on the grid that will try to bite part of her audience.
"It will not be a political debate," insisted
Lluís Guilera
, former presenter of Informativos on TVE and the one chosen by the corporation to host
The First Question
.
"You can debate many issues without falling into the usual political debate," reiterated the journalist who makes his debut in the entertainment genre and who will be accompanied in the conduct of the program by
María Gómez
.
Together with them, the journalist
Pilar Eyre
, the comedian
Carlos Latre
and the social media expert
Pilar de Francisco will
participate in different fixed sections
.
However, although those responsible for the program were resounding in the unchecking of the usual content that their competitor
La Sexta noche
deals with
, they were not so blunt in terms of the terrain that is treading on
Saturday Deluxe
.
"In principle, the structure of the program does not contemplate that there are
contents of the heart
, but this is an open format that will evolve," said Guilera.
"If there is something current that splashes the world of the heart one day we are open to dealing with it," he added.
In principle, the format of
The First Question
, as explained by those responsible, will start with a structure in which there will be two rounds of debate, one with a more social content and the other with a more casual nature, and an in-depth interview with current figures all types.
To start this Saturday the program will broadcast an interview with the tenor
Plácido Domingo
.
In addition, the singer
Mónica Naranjo will
also participate in the debut program
.
The
first question
will be produced by RTVE in collaboration with the Catalan production company
Visiona TV
.
The law prohibits the public corporation from outsourcing informational programs, but given the possible incompatibility of this program currently focused on the norm, Toñi Prieto denied that there is any problem: “They cannot accuse us of anything because this is a entertainment program.
It is not an informational format
.
The space, according to the head of RTVE, was born with the vocation of occupying a quarter on the grid.
Each installment will be broadcast live and will last around
three hours
.
It will be held in Barcelona, from set number 5 in
San Cugat del Vallés
.
