Emilio's most famous line, "Un poquito de por favor! (a little please!)" was brought to the character by Fernando Tejero himself.

He messed up with the words "un poquito de silencio, por favor (a little silence, please!)". The quote has since become his trademark and a very popular line in Spain.

Several actors had complained of the exhausting shooting pace, receiving scripts the night before filming and sometimes shooting an 80-minute episode in 3 days.
