A new consignment of guests arrives at Pasapalabra with the aim of lending a hand to the contestants Moisés and Fer when it comes to adding seconds for the final test of El Rosco. Among the celebrities who visit the set of the Antena 3 program this week are Tristán Ulloa, Lluvia Rojo and Sergio Pazos. Let’s get to know this latest guest a little better.
Those who already have gray hair will always remember Sergio Pazos (Orense, 1965) with his goatee, XXL sideburns and a hairstyle pulled back with a ponytail. And he always dressed in an unmistakable black suit and sunglasses.
And it is that the Galician actor rose to fame with Caiga Quien Caiga (CQC). Pazos was part of the first cast of intrepid and rowdy reporters of the irreverent Telecinco program (1996-2002), together with Pablo Carbonell, Arturo Valls, Tonino and Mario Caballero, as well as the drivers of the format from the set El Gran Wyoming, Javier Martín and John of the Church.
At the time when politicians almost fought to have Caiga Quien Caiga glasses, Sergio Pazos became for several seasons the rebellious son-in-law that every progressive mother wanted to have at home. It was he who achieved one of the great feats of the program: giving the glasses to King Juan Carlos I himself.
Although it was as a man in black that he achieved fame at the national level, the truth is that the Galician came to CQC already with a career behind him, especially in his native Galicia. It was in the 80s when he made his debut on stage with the theater companies Caritel and CDG, although it was the role of Paspallás in the TVG comedy Pratos combinados that gave him some local notoriety.
It didn’t take long for him to appear sporadically in such mythical Spanish series as Farmacia de guardia (1993), Thieves go to the office (1994) or All men are equal (1995).
His time at CQC opened the doors to large projects. At the end of the 90s and beginning of the 2000s, Sergio Pazos obtained roles in films such as Airbag (1997), Muertos de risa (1999), Tuno negro (2001) or Hot Milk (2005).
He also continued to forge his career on the small screen, with appearances in series such as Periodistas (2001), Amar es para siempre (2015) or, more recently, La que se avecina (2020). Likewise, he was once again a reporter on the Telecinco program Vuélveme loca (2010-2011) and a collaborator in the Cuatro Channel nº4 magazine (2006).
His most important role on television came from the hand of Cuéntame como pasó (2009-2013 and 2015-2016), where he plays Pepe, Antonio Alcántara’s driver and later the bistro waiter and Paquita’s boyfriend.
To all this, Pazos has not stopped working in plays throughout Spain for the last three decades, sharing the stage with some of the best national actors.
