Perhaps is one of the most famous TV series in Spain, not only it is a good one, but also it has been almost every summer since 1978 on TV1. I have seen Chanquete´s death 4 times and I will remember the song until I die (Del barco de Chanquete, no nos moverán...). Some of the boys are now unknown people (or even some are death) but Ferrandis and Garralón are now famous actors. If you are not Spanish you should take a look at it, but remember, in 1978 we were not a modern country.
