Manu Sánchez's 'El Perro Andaluz' stays audience leader despite dip in viewership
Manu Sánchez's late‑night programme "El Perro Andaluz" on TVE's La 1 continued to command the highest share of prime‑time viewers on 16 July, recording a 12.5 % audience share with 831 000 viewers – the lowest rating since its launch but still above competing channels. Earlier episodes had peaked at 22.5 % and drawn over 1.7 million viewers.
In a subsequent monologue, Sánchez addressed the recent removal of the Gibraltar fence, asserting that the Campo de Gibraltar has been Spanish for centuries and lamenting the lack of investment and attention the area receives. He also touched on broader topics such as racism, the rise of fascism, political polarization, and threats he has received online, including death‑wish messages referencing his past cancer diagnosis.
