Last September, the 25 Words contest said goodbye to Telecinco's schedule to make way for TardeAR in its broadcast time. With its termination, Christian Gálvez was left without a fixed project on the Mediaset network, and only his participation in the Christmas specials prepared by the communication group had been announced to date.
Now, at the end of the year, it is already known what the next project will be of which he was the presenter of Pasapalabra between 2007 and 2019, and which will be broadcast again on Telecinco. Gálvez takes the reins of Celebrity School, an adaptation of a German format in which several celebrities 'go back to school' and will face primary, secondary and high school students.
The program, produced in collaboration with Cuarzo Producciones (That's Life, The Island of Temptations), has already begun its preparation phase. In it, well-known figures from different fields must pass knowledge tests, physical and musical, in direct competition with the young contestants.
Depending on the winning group, the destination of the prize will be very different. If the celebrities are victorious, the money will go to charities; while if the students win, the prize will be dedicated to improving their own schools.
The arrival of Celebrity School on the Telecinco grid officially marks the return of Christian Gálvez to the screens. Since Mediaset was forced to stop broadcasting Pasapalabra in 2019, the Madrid communicator has gone through different contests in the group such as El Tirón, Qarenta or Alta Tension.
Last season he headlined 25 Words, which was finally canceled last September. Now, in addition to being in charge of this new format of celebrities against students, he will also present the Mediaset Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve galas together with Verónica Dulanto, in what represents Gálvez's first experience in charge of this type of content.
