Finally, the day came. This Friday, Sálvame said goodbye to its audience after fourteen years on the air. The last program was an afternoon full of emotions and beautiful words. All the collaborators were affected by saying goodbye to the great family that they have formed for more than a decade. After the end of the broadcast, the workers left Mediaset very excited, but above all proud of the work done. Several media outlets traveled there, which were able to capture the moments of emotion and some statements by the protagonists.
Europa Press collects this Saturday some of the statements of the collaborators of the program, although it was difficult for them to articulate a word. The emotion was on the surface. “I have missed Jorge Javier Vázquez a lot, he was the most important link, who has directed this for such a long time and so well”, expressed José Antonio Canales Rivera. It should be remembered that the Catalan presenter has been out for more than a month, and although there was hope that he would reappear in the latest Save Me program, this did not happen.
On the other hand, Carmen Borrego addressed what she hopes for her future work now that the program in which she usually collaborated disappears. “Everything begins and ends, they are cycles and well, this is over, but surely God will provide and there will be other things, nothing ends here, other things will begin,” said the sister of Terelu Campos, excited.
“Today I can’t,” said the collaborator, and defended that both Jorge Javier and Mila Ximénez, who died two years ago, were present in the last program. “Man, he’s in the hearts of all of us, and I think all of us in the hearts of him…man, can you imagine,” she expressed. “This is not over. This is never over,” she sentenced, making it clear that this farewell is just a ‘see you later’, not a ‘see you forever’.
On the other hand, Belén Esteban apologized to her fans for not being able to attend them after the last program. “We can’t take the photos anymore, really. I’m sorry, ma’am. Forgive me. Oh, please,” she expressed. In addition, she Belén also assured that she had missed Jorge Javier, with whom she, despite having starred in big fights, she maintains a great friendship.
The statements of Kiko Matamoros, who is one of the most recognized faces of the program, could not be missing either. “I think it’s time to think positive, to park nostalgia and look forward and that’s it… start a new project, excited,” she expressed about her professional future. “I believe that it has not been left for us, I believe that until the last day we have given our best and at least we have tried,” she expressed. “Whoever comes, let him improve it,” she said, throwing a dart.
After the cancellation of Sálvame, which lived its last program yesterday after fourteen years on the air, a new stage begins in Telecinco and in its afternoons. The time slot will be led by Ana Rosa Quintana, who will be present both in the morning and in the afternoon. However, this format would arrive after the summer, and during the summer it would be the new program Así es la vida, by Sandra Barneda, which would fill the void of Sálvame. Now Quintana is already charging batteries to be able to face this new professional challenge, and the spectators and collaborators of Sálvame mourn the loss of her.
