Biography

Sobera has a law degree from the University of Deusto. He also was a professor of Civil Law at the University of the Basque Country, from 1987 to 1997. His first contact with the world of theater was in 1980 when he created, in his native Bilbao, a group called La Espuela. The group was active until 1986 and at that time staged La dama de alba by Alejandro Casona, Viva el Duque nuestro dueño by Alonso de Santos Balada de los tres inocentes by Pedro Mario Herrero.

In 1994 he began working for the Basque regional TV (Euskal Telebista) being the screenwriter of Boulevard, talk show presented by Anne Igartiburu. In 1995 he was one of the creators of the game show Los jueves, mudanza, issued by TVG. He debuted as a presenter in Euskal Telebista being presenter of the monthly program Ciudadanos and then of the daily show Arde la tarde.

In 1996 his film debut arrived when he starred, along with Imanol Arias, on Koldo Azkarreta's film Rigor Mortis. In 1997 he made a leap to national television, presenting weekly show PC Adictos on La 2. However, he rose to fame due to his roles in TV series Al salir de clase and Quítate tú para ponerme yo, both on Telecinco.

Since then, he became one of the most popular TV presenters in Spain, hosting such shows as the Spanish version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? and Atrapa un millón (the Spanish version of The Million Pound Drop) on Antena 3,[1] and from 2016 First Dates (the Spanish adaptation of the same-titled British dating show) on Cuatro.
