Return to Eldorado Episode 8: Interview with Sandra Sandri
Sandra Sandra was just 17 years old when she was thrust into the limelight as one half of Eldorado’s famous power couple, Marcus and Pilar. Dave James has tracked Sandra down to her home in Italy where she is now settled.
In this interview, Sandra Sandri talks candidly about her time working for the BBC in Spain. Find out how she got the part of Pilar, how she handled overnight fame at such a young age, her troubles with the British press, her working relationships with Iker Ortiz De Zarate, Jesse Birdsall who played Marcus Tandy, Bo Corre, Maria Sanchez, and Charlie Condou.
Find out what Sandra is doing now, see some exclusive pictures that she has kindly shared with us, and find out if she’d be willing to reprise her role as Pilar Moreno if Eldorado ever made a comeback!
