Return of Spanish television program Salvados

Overview

The Spanish television program ‘Salvados’ is returning to LaSexta for its 18th season. The new season will premiere with a double episode dedicated to Rita Barberá, the former mayor of Valencia, marking ten years since her death.

The documentary aims to reconstruct the ‘lights and shadows’ of Barberá’s 24-year tenure and her political trajectory, which director Gonzo described as a ‘very Shakespearean drama’. The episode will feature interviews with political allies and adversaries, including Francisco Camps, José Manuel García-Margallo, and Joan Ribó.

This special will explore Barberá’s political dominance and the legal controversies that marked her final years, specifically mentioning the Taula case. The broadcast intends to provide a multi-faceted portrait of her legacy, covering her political successes alongside the personal isolation she experienced toward the end of her life.

Separately, Barberá’s legacy continues to influence Valencian politics. Recent developments in the Azud case have raised questions regarding her legal protections, while political fractures within the People's Party (PP) remain visible following historical votes regarding her senate seat.
