Dios Mio, que va a pasar a Merche???
This is the question I'm dying to find out. Actually, it's more like GASPING, after watching the latest episode in the BBC's online spanish language drama, Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life).
It's a fabulous multimedia tool taking the viewer, and language learner, on an adventurous tale with the ultimate goal of learning Spanish. In a series of 22 episodes, you are placed in the shoes of a tourist in Madrid staying at the apartment of your Spanish friend. Once there, the viewer runs into Merche, the busy sister of their absent mate, who it turns out is a journalist investigating corruption in Gran Canaria.
I wanted to learn Spanish using online sources, and this series not only does the trick, but has me gripped with it's addictive, soap opera plotting, engaging characters and the lovely way it makes the interaction with English and Spanish so easy. No surprise then that the show won an Innovation Bafta award in 2009.
Anyway, I have to get back to it. Ep 19, La Inmobiliaria, isn't going to watch itself...
Hasta entonces, chicos!
