Mercedes Milá has chosen Turégano, in Segovia, as the setting for the latest episode of 'Me meto en un jardín', where she meets painter and entrepreneur Lucía Dominguín. Known for candid interviews in distinctive gardens, the program explores guests' personal and professional lives through journeys and encounters. Turégano also holds personal significance for Dominguín: Vanitatis, in El Confidencial, identifies it as her current home and links the property to her family history and the former Museo de los Ángeles, a project promoted by her mother, artist Lucía Bosé.
This week, Milá sets off in her caravan and stops at the Real Fábrica de Cristales de La Granja. There, master glassblower Diego Rodríguez introduces her to the traditional art of glassblowing, and Milá makes a vase as a gift for Dominguín. An unexpected incident involving her dog Scott briefly disrupts the itinerary, forcing a change of plans before the basic interview can begin. The glassworks also hosts contemporary and traditional glass art. Segoviaudaz reported that the exhibition Trascendiendo la Imagen, featuring 15 international glass artists who turned botanical photographs into sculptural, three-dimensional works, was scheduled to open there on October 24, 2026, at noon.
Milá and Dominguín eventually meet in La Alcarria, where their conversation turns to the significance of place and memory. Dominguín, known for her artistic work and appearances on 'MasterChef Celebrity' and 'DecoMasters', shares insights into her life and creative process. The Turégano home adds another layer of context: Vanitatis describes it as a rehabilitated former flour mill of about 1,000 square metres spread across three floors. Dominguín has said she moved there because her mother left her the property and she was the only one who wanted to live there. The two women then visit a flower farm run by Leticia de la Fuente, a close friend of Dominguín. Surrounded by blooming fields, they discuss how nature and friendship have shaped personal growth.
The episode ends with Milá and Dominguín at the flower farm, reflecting the program's focus on conversation and the connection between people and their surroundings. Produced by RTVE and Zanskar Producciones, 'Me meto en un jardín' pairs travel with discussion, taking guests to places connected to their lives. Previous episodes have featured David Uclés and Sor Lucía Caram, as well as Álex Txikon and Miguel Ángel Revilla. Each shared their story in a garden in Spain.
Location-based interviews give viewers a look at guests' public personas and the places that have shaped their lives. Gardens and natural settings, including Marimurtra on the Costa Brava and the Historic Botanical Garden in Barcelona, add a visual dimension to these conversations. Distinctive settings in Spanish media have also fuelled public debate. A controversial image at a festival in Sagunto drew official condemnation and discussion about representation and tradition. More details on that incident can be found in this report on the Sagunto festival controversy.
'Me meto en un jardín' continues to pair personal storytelling with exploration of Spain's landscapes. The program offers new perspectives on well-known figures and draws attention to the country's cultural and natural heritage. Its conversations take shape around the places where they unfold.
