The best moments of Jesús Quintero on television

The death of Jesús Quintero at the age of 82 shocked public opinion. And it is that this veteran journalist was a reference and a figure remembered by all. Because his interviews with him have been special, different, and the numerous television moments he has left over the course of his career are proof of this.

From Lola Flores to Mario Conde or Rocío Jurado. There has been no familiar face on the national scene that has not spent long seconds of silence in front of this journalist who has interpreted them like no other. So much so that his formula was well received by many chains and, as he said, it worked “on all chains”.

However, this television and radio journalist and screenwriter has developed much of his career on both Andalusian television, on Canal Sur, and on TVE. It is not the remembered of him Red Mice by Canal Sur the fool on the hill by TVE?

In these programs, Jesús Quintero also brought fame to many of his interviewees. There is nothing left to remember Risitas, which rose to the level of memes of the time thanks to its particular way of laughing.

Also well remembered is the interview that Quintero had with Jesús Gil at Ratones Coloraos, where the former president of Atlético de Madrid left no one indifferent with his multiple titles. Difficult to be with one in such an informal environment.

Also the interview with Rocío Jurado in 2006 on TVE, where the figure of ‘The greatest’ gave a lesson in inner strength and personal courage. For this reason and for Quintero’s ability to extract every word from the artist, it is undoubtedly one of the most remembered.

Without a doubt, being able to stay with an interview with journalist Jesús Quintero is frankly difficult. That is why this chronicle by Carlos del Amor for TVE news accurately concentrates many of the great moments of this genius of silence and the genre of the interview that this October 3 said goodbye to us.
