Tuesday evening at Fire Xou I gave one moments designed to stay in the memory of television. Marc Giro recovered an emblematic image from the career of Marthe Sanchez: her concert on Christmas Eve 1990 during the Gulf War. “They always take this photo of you,” the presenter slipped, to which the singer replied ironically: “I’m quite photogenic, yes.”
The real turning point came when Giró announced that they would not only talk about “soldiers of love”, but about real good. “Please let Remigio Bernabé through“, he said, causing the artist’s immediate disbelief. “Don’t tell me,” Marta reacted when she saw the guest enter, unable to hide her surprise: “Flipa.”
Remigio wasn’t just any face in the audience. “I I was there that day, I was one of the sailors“, he explained to Marta Sánchez who insisted: “I don’t believe you. “The confirmation came with a photo taken that nightwhen he was 19, and he did his military service aboard the Numancia.
Far from any war epic, Remigio detailed his mission with humor. “I was a pastry chef and a waiter.” he said, while Giró joked from the table that he didn’t take “a shotgun.” He settled the problem quickly: “Hose and broom I took“, and Marta added: “Sweet is also important for a good mood.”
The memory of the concert remains intact decades later. “Our morale was very low and this lifted us up a lot.“, confessed the ex-sailor. Marta closed the story by recalling the end of that night: “Then we ate and there we took a photo”, a moment that Fire Xou has become emotional and direct television.
