🌟 “Salí a buscar el amor de mi vida… y regresé con un cartón de chelas”: la confesión más humana de Rafael Amaya 🍻

By -

  Durante años, el rostro de Rafael Amaya ha estado asociado con poder, peligro y seducción. Como Aurelio Casillas, el protagonista de El Señor de los Cielos , fue el símbolo de una masculinidad feroz: el hombre que lo tenía todo y que no temía a nada. Pero detrás del personaje, hay un ser humano que aprendió —con golpes, risas y lágrimas— que la vida no siempre se conquista a balazos ni con glamour… sino con humildad, humor y una cerveza en la mano. La frase “Salí a buscar el amor de mi vida y regresé con un cartón de chelas” no es solo una broma viral. Es un reflejo del nuevo Rafael Amaya. Un hombre que, después de haberlo tenido todo y perder casi todo, ha decidido reírse de sí mismo, abrazar la imperfección y celebrar los pequeños placeres que antes pasaban desapercibidos. Hubo un tiempo en que Rafael vivía en modo Aurelio : siempre acelerado, rodeado de fama, luces y ruido. El éxito de la serie lo lanzó a la cima, pero también lo sumergió en una soledad silenciosa. En 2019...

Remarkable double honour for Chichester’s Dame Patricia Routledge

By -

 



The bells will sound between 11 and 12 midday on Monday, February 17 as Dame Patricia’s adopted home city offers a hugely significant accolade, rarely accorded, to mark her 96th birthday.

The ringing comes not long after she received the Freedom of the Wirral, the place of her birth, in 1929.

“I can’t quite take it in!” Dame Patricia laughed. “It is almost too much!”

Dame Patricia, whose many Chichester Festival Theatre appearances include Beatrix and The Importance of Being Earnest, said she hoped to be able to hear the bells: “But I may be found wandering around outside the cathedral if the wind isn’t blowing in the right direction!”

As for the Freedom of the Wirral, as she says: “It is the greatest honour a city or town can pay someone. I am thrilled beyond measure. It allows me to shepherd my sheep across the peninsula!

“It was an unforgettable day. I went up there to receive the honour from the mayor and the deputy mayors who were there. The three MPs of the Wirral were there and the Bishop of Birkenhead was there and people that I had invited. I had the present head of my primary school there. It was a wonderful school and there was also the head of the Birkenhead High School as it then was. And there were various representatives of the charities that I support. It was the most wonderful surprise. We had high tea with 30 guests and I did get to go to my primary school. They sent a little choir to sing to me on the occasion and I am still coming down from it!”

Dame Patricia, who has lived in Chichester for many years, grew up in the north-west, living there until she left for Bristol Old Vic Theatre School at the age of 22, after attending Liverpool University where she studied English language and literature. During her studies she was active with the drama and music societies before deciding on a career in the theatre.

Wirral councillors voted to approve her nomination for Freedom of the Borough earlier this year.

  Una Stubbs obituary This article is more than 3 years old Sparkling actor whose long, eclectic career ranged from Shakespeare to Sherlock Bright and bubbly, tart and twinkly, Una Stubbs, who has died aged 84, was a revue regular and a Palladium pantomime principal boy who parlayed her natural song-and-dance talent into a later, diverse career on the classical stage. In earlier years she was best known for her roles alongside Cliff Richard in two high-spirited pop musical movies –  Summer Holiday  (1963) and  Wonderful Life  (1964) – and as Alf Garnett’s daughter, Rita Rawlins, married to a socialist layabout ( Anthony Booth , Cherie Blair’s father and so Tony’s father-in-law), in  Johnny Speight ’s classic TV series  Till Death Us Do Part  (1965‑75) and in episodes of its 1980s sequel,  In Sickness and in Health . Both of these incarnations are unimaginable today: a docile, amenable dolly bird hanging around Cliff and the Shadows, and a tol...
