La Ciencia en televisión: Redes, el modelo divulgativo de Eduard Punset
Julio Grosso Mesa
Resum
The popularisation of science in Spanish television has historically relied on Spains
public TV broadcaster, RTVE, and on regional channels, especially including Catalonias
TV3. Although science still occupies only 1 % of the TV news broadcast time in Spain,
cultural programmes, including those of informative nature, have been a constant in TVEs offering since its inception in 1956, mainly on the minority-audience channel
La 2. Among these informative cultural TV programmes, Redes (Networks) is a unique
phenomenon in terms of both its run length and its audience acceptance. Indeed, no
other science popularisation programme has ever run so long without a break for 17
years and over 600 episodes. Despite changes of government, Redes has achieved a
good balance between its level of quality and its communicative effectiveness. The
Catalan science populariser Eduard Punset, in particular, has achieved the unthinkable by making science popular in Spain.
