Verano Azul, the 80's Spanish TV series was also very popular in Portugal. By that time, there was only one TV channel in Portugal and, therefore, this series was seen by a whole generation. Even the series theme stays in our memory. I cannot forget all the waiting I did to see the new adventures of those kids. It was the first show that approached several 'tabu' issues (we were in the 80s...) like sex, period, etc...
I heard in the news that a DVD set of the series is about to be released here in Portugal and, probably, in Spain. It's a great chance to meet again those characters that were part of our youth. Note: none of the actors is still performing. 'Chanquete' died of lung disease in 2000. The series' girls are now nurses at a Madrid hospital. Piraña is a University teacher (informatic systems) and Pancho had a (unsuccessful) boys band in Madrid.
