Alba Flores Celebrates Unique Dolphin Gift On La Revuelta

Actors share laughs and promote their new series while discussing environmental themes and unique dolphin sponsorship.

In an engaging episode of 'La Revuelta', aired on March 25, 2025, Alba Flores and Óscar Jaenada delighted viewers with their humorous banter and unique gifts as they promoted their upcoming series 'Punto Nemo', set to premiere on March 28 on Prime Video.

Flores, renowned for her roles in hit series like Vis a Vis and La Casa de Papel, surprised host David Broncano with a plush dolphin bearing his name. This wasn't just any toy; Alba revealed that they had sponsored a real dolphin named Broncano, who frequents the Ría de Arousa, located near Broncano's birthplace. "We've adopted a dolphin, and his name is Broncano!" she announced with enthusiasm, bringing laughter from the audience.

A bit of background checked out: the dolphin, born in 2015, is described as active and social, often seen with other male dolphins. Even more interestingly, he has been spotted over 90 times in his habitat.

The episode was full of laughs and even took a turn into the educational, as the conversation shifted to various anecdotal tales about dolphins, including a humorous yet bizarre account involving a dolphin named Peter. This story detailed an actual NASA-funded experiment aimed at teaching the dolphin English, which took an unexpectedly personal turn for the researcher involved.

Amidst these light-hearted exchanges, the duo began to delve into 'Punto Nemo', which is themed around an isolated point in the Pacific Ocean where a Spanish scientific crew encounters an enigmatic island. Alba plays a marine biologist in the series, while Óscar assumes the role of a naval captain. They both stressed the show's blend of science fiction with environmental themes, packed with suspense and adventure.

Óscar recounted their filming experience, particularly in Madeira, “Shooting in Madeira was incredible. It's a very untouched place,” while Alba added that she prepared for her role by spending time with Greenpeace activists in the Galápagos Islands to gather insights.

During the episode, viewers were treated to additional gifts from Jeanded, including fresh ginger, turmeric, and lemons, directly from the garden he proudly tended near Monte Igueldo, where he claims to live a wholesome life. "To make sure you all have healthy breakfasts!" he joked. His enthusiasm for healthy living and organic produce was apparent and well-received.

As part of the tradition on 'La Revuelta', Broncano posed his usual array of cheeky questions. This time, the discussion turned to personal life, with Alba humorously noting, "I'm worse off than the last time, a lot of work on my plate." In a playful back-and-forth about dating and relationships, they exchanged laughs over the complexities of modern romance, with Broncano joking about how different interactions earn various scores – a humorous take on the dating game.

Ultimately, the night encapsulated both lively and thoughtful moments, reflecting the chemistry between the guests and Broncano. Their encounter was not just a promotional stop but also a chance to connect personally and share insights about their lives and the new series.

In a touching moment, Alba went off-script and shared her current project: a documentary about her father, titled 'Flores para Antonio', which surprised the audience and Broncano alike, revealing her deep-rooted commitment to family and legacy.

The jovial and insightful episode concluded with the trio celebrating not just the upcoming series ‘Punto Nemo’, but also the joy of friendship, creativity, and the complexities of marine life. As they departed, it was clear that both Alba Flores and Óscar Jaenada will be key figures in captivating audiences, both on screen and beyond.
