Yllana directed and performed this TVE special produced by Zeta Audiovisual and featuring Josema Yuste, with appearances by well-known faces like Santiago Segura, Felisuco, Antonio Pagudo and Marta Belenguer.
In the style of España en Directo, Nochegüena News serves up a parody of this type of format to viewers. Humourist Josema Yuste becomes the presenter of a very unusual news show in which the insane reporters experience a very uncommon Christmas Eve. While the show moves on to live connections and presents a wide range of features, Yuste takes on the challenge of dining ‘live’ with the viewers of La 1, which ends up complicating production of the programme.
In Nochegüena News, the problems that an unusual Spanish family faces in preparing Christmas dinner emerge, how the economic crisis is affecting how Saint Peter in the Kingdom of Heaven is handled and how the prestigious chef ‘Adrián Ferranz’ prepares a spectacular feast that is very ‘nouvelle cuisine’ for several picturesque beggars. The dole, new technologies and the world of hip-hop also have their time in the sun for parodies of adverts and television programmes.
The programme was broadcast on Christmas Eve 2011 and was the leader in its time slot with a 22% share (6 points ahead of T5 and 11 points above A3)
