Although it has only one season under its belt (the second season starts in November), El Internado has not only won over critics and viewers, but also taken centre stage as an original series that blends genres in a way never before seen in the Spanish fiction television market. El Internado has been the most-watched prime-time show right from the start, with an average audience of more than four million viewers and a share of 23.8 per cent.

Ponte a Prueba, which calls itself “the programme that other broadcasters don't dare to air”, has won the Onda Award for Best Radio Programme. Its innovative, daring style prompted the jury at the 54th Ondas Awards to laud the Europa FM show for its “inclusive, avant-garde approach, for defending the values of tolerance, respect and non-discrimination, regardless of social status, ethnicity, creed or sexual orientation, for dealing with issues in a light-hearted and humorous way, and for using innovative language in an uninhibited and taboo-free manner – and for doing this conscientiously and responsibly”.

The juries for the 2007 Ondas Awards, comprising 36 radio, advertising, television, cinema and music professionals, sorted through 696 nominees from 24 countries around the world.
