Cristina Pardo and Iñaki López: Their Hilarious Cameo in 'Torrente, Presidente' and How They Revealed It on 'Más Vale Tarde'

If there's one TV duo that has won the hearts of Spaniards, it's undoubtedly Cristina Pardo and Iñaki López. The hosts of 'Más vale tarde' (laSexta) don't just dominate the afternoons with their unique take on current events; they've now also made the leap to the big screen. And not just any leap: none other than alongside the one and only Santiago Segura in his latest instalment of the saga, 'Torrente, presidente'.

Last week, while watching the movie, we couldn't believe our eyes: there were Cristina Pardo Schlesinger (yes, with that illustrious second surname) and her colleague, fully immersed in the Torrente universe. The scene, which we won't spoil, has been one of the most talked-about on social media. But the best part came afterwards, when they decided to discuss the moment on their own show.

On 'Más vale tarde', both confessed how they experienced it. Iñaki, with his usual irony, said they accepted "because Segura is a genius and he also promised we'd look great." Cristina Pardo, for her part, couldn't help but laugh remembering the bloopers: "Santiago is a whirlwind, he makes you feel right at home, but suddenly you find yourself surrounded by the most outlandish characters and you think: where did I get myself into?"

The chemistry between the hosts and the director was evident in every anecdote. Here are the highlights they shared live on air:

• "The hardest part was keeping a straight face during filming," Iñaki confessed, sparking laughter from his colleague.
• "My mom called me, totally freaking out after seeing me in the theatre," Cristina Pardo recounted between chuckles.
• "Santiago told us we were the hosts he'd always dreamed of for Torrente," Pardo added with her signature wit.

And of course, in Navarra, Cristina Pardo Schlesinger's home region, the cameo hasn't gone unnoticed. The Foral Community has proudly celebrated the journalist's leap to film, as she's already one of the area's most beloved figures. And rightfully so: seeing a serious, hard-hitting journalist thrown into the wacky world of Torrente is no small feat.

For now, the duo continues to lead the afternoons on laSexta, but this little cinematic interlude proves that Cristina Pardo and Iñaki López can handle anything. Will we see them in more films soon? Maybe Santiago Segura is already cooking up a new role for them. In the meantime, we'll settle for enjoying them every afternoon and this cameo, which is already part of Spanish film lore.
