Behind the Scenes of "Sol de Inverno" with Diogo on "Boa Tarde"

Diogo took viewers on a tour behind the scenes of "Sol de Inverno" on the SIC talk show, "Boa Tarde."  Dina graciously translated this fun and cute segment for us, which can be found right below the video.

Backstage - Sol de Inverno - with Diogo Morgado by diogofanfriends

DM: (getting out of the car) Well good morning, good morning or good afternoon. This is because it’s a good day here in Óbidos. It's ... what time is it? Let me see ... It's 10am. It is not bad, but to get to Óbidos, have to wake up quite early. I woke up at 6:30 am. Oh… it is. There, at "Boa Tarde," you already had lunch, all is quiet, but here we're still starting the day now. Spend this day backstage at "Sol de Inverno" with me, okay? This is what we will do. So okay, come now.

DM: (next to the coffee machine) Go to the coffee ... Good day ...
DM: (as if he was selling it at the market) Look, a cup of coffee... Who wants a cup of coffee?... No coffee, but we have glasses...
DM: (drinking coffee) Here are the wardrobe ladies (they are hiding from the camera.) Look at them, you see?
(With Rui Unas ("Carlos") on the series.)
DM: Rui, do you want to talk to people about our latest single?
RU: Do you want to? Want to talk about it?
DM: I would speak a little ...
RU: So speak ...
DM: So this is how....
(and their  "Bo Tem Mel" video plays.)
RU: Although ... sometimes ...
DM: No, do not go there, do not go there ...
RU: So…
DM: No, it is not worth it because they do not need to know.
(more of  "Bo Tem Mel" plays.)
DM: But wasn't it cool?
RU: It was ...
DM: (to the camera) But prepare yourselves because there may be more (he laughs.)
(He closes the car door as colleagues run away from him and the camera.)
DM: I was being threatened by members of the crew, saying "Diogo, Diogo, I was born to be behind the camera, not in front of the cameras. Don't ever do that to me." Sorry wardrobe ladies.
(Now in the make-up trailer.)
DM: The last time I was here, on location, I was such a fuss, my colleagues, especially these two (the make-up people), turned. I think it was more "Eduardo" than Diogo.
(Scene with Eduardo and Andreia in the room plays.)
DM: So look, I'm sorry. Jacinta, the makeup artist, she is disguising the fact that I have been very sick and filming at the same time ... Look, you know what she's doing right now? Hiding my dark circles.
(Inês Castelo Branco ("Teresa") arrives.)
DM: And then we have Inês Castelo Branco, who does not need much make-up to look pretty.
(Scene from “Sol de Inverno” where Andreia tells the family that Eduardo is compatible with his sister, but hid it plays.)
DM: A kidney is not something you give to just anyone (laughs.) What horror ... You see? I'm not like that, okay?
ICB: Diogo is animated. It is he who brings good energy to the scene. He is also a person full of interests. He is always talking about movies, experiences, music ...
DM: (interrupting) She's saying I'm boring ...
ICB: I’m not.
DM: Shut up.
ICB: He is very cool.
(with box of contact lenses in his hands)
DM: Herein lays the magic of "Eduardo."
ICB: It is with these that he stays one of us. He was the only family member with dark eyes, so they decided to put him in contact lenses.
DM: I just said "no way I'm going to be the only member in this family who does not have lighter eyes, so to speak." So what did I do? I bought these (and he shows the box with the contact lens.
(with Maria João Luis ("Laura") and Rui Unas, getting ready to shoot a scene.)
MJL: Do you know who loves you?
DM: No one?
(He laughs.)
(Now talking to the director)
DM: I bring the small suitcase and he brings the big one.
(A scene from “Sol de Inverno” with Laura plays.  )
DM: When people on the street tell me "You're so bad ... so bad ... but also… with a mother like that ..." so it's fun because people feel irritated with the character of "Eduardo" but also excuse him due to circumstances in which he lives.
(“Sol de Inverno” scene with Laura, at the hospital when Eduardo was late for the kidney transplant, plays.)
DM: At the end of it all, "Eduardo" is not the villain, okay? Not a villain. He is someone not really capable, mindless, and perhaps abnormal. But that does not make him a villain. He is not a villain.
(at the end)
DM: Well, this is it, dear Conceição and dear viewers. Thank you for spending this day with me, for accompanying me behind the scenes of "Sol de Inverno." I hope you all continue to follow the series, and that we will find ourselves there, [at the Boa Tarde studio] okay?  Thank you, a kiss, until next time.

Diogo as the "mystery guest" on "Boa Tarde"

Diogo was the "mystery guest" on yesterday's episode of "Boa Tarde" ("Good Afternoon"), a popular daytime/talk show in Portugal.  Specifically, Diogo "surprised" the host of "Boa Tarde," Conceição Lino, for this very fun interview.  Awesome fan Dina was kind enough to send us the video and some translation for us, which can be found below each video respective clip.

Diogo: Hello, today I am "Boa Tarde"'s "mystery guest" for Conceição Lino.  I just arrived at SIC's studio, and Conception knows absolutely nothing. So do not miss it.  Until then, until then.

Clip of the Day - Diogo on "Boa Tarde"

In honor of Diogo tweeting today from Portugal, today's "Clip of the Day" is Diogo in Portugal, on Portuguese TV, talking about Portugal!  :)

Specifically, it's a great interview from SIC TV's popular daytime show, "Boa Tarde" that Diogo did in August of 2012, to discuss "Portugal: Melhor Destino" ("Portugal: The Best Destination" -- the campaign for which he was an "appointed ambassador of Portugal."

Diogo appeared on the show alongside Bruno Pinto, from the "O Melhor Destino" organization, and was interviewed by "Boa Tarde" host, Conceição Lino, who, according to our very own Portuguese ambassador, @MsLiliana, is one of the most familiar faces on SIC.  MsLiliana was also kind enough to provide a translation of Diogo's part of the interview, which you can find below the clip.

"Conceição Lino/ CL: If you are one of those Portuguese so proud to say that you are from this country in the point of Europe that in times conquered half the world, then you will like my next guests! The initiative “Portugal: O Melhor Destino,” with the collaboration of all Portuguese people, is creating the biggest photo album in the world. Any of us can participate. To give us more details we have here the ambassador of this initiative, Diogo Morgado, and Bruno Pinto, from the organization. 

Diogo Morgado/DM: Hello, good afternoon! I've missed you Conceição!  (Note: Diogo had cooked with Conceição on the show the year before.)

CL: Awww round of applause for him!  Diogo, since you are here so close to me... (Diogo interrupts: I asked for it! I asked to be closer!)  How did you get to be the ambassador of this initiative?

DM: It was from a company that I've worked with for awhile, Dreambooks, that made this invitation to me, explained to me this action, and I immediately bought the idea. First because I am one of those proud Portuguese who is really proud of our history, our little country that makes such great things, and that is so capable.  So for me, it makes all sense at this time when we, a little bit in low self-esteem.   (Conceição interrupts… “little?” A lot I say!) 

DM: Well I was being an optimist… But it’s initiatives like this that give us the more optimistic side of things, looking to the good part… to the real part! Sometimes we just look at the bad things and forget the real good things that should give us strength to move forward. And I think that Portugal as so many good things, especially the people -- the effort and enterprising we've made to overpass difficult situations, and primarily when bad things happened.  And unfortunately we had many of those cases – Portuguese people unite in a completely unique way.

[Fast Forward to 04:02]

DM We received more than 22,000 pictures so far, people are participating in large-scale. Including not only pictures, but also the comments they make.  People are really proud and have a real need of showing that their place, their location as a special, magical nook that says something unique, that tells them something…

CL: What is your special place?

DM: Look, my special place is my home! (They laugh.)

CL: But for the special places in Portugal that you know, do you have any place that pleases you? Or you don´t want to tell?

DM: No, no… undoubtedly I can say it, because people will understand that it is a place that says much to me. Where I grew up, thought, meditated, and sometimes made some hard decisions.  That is Praia da Fonte da Telha! (Beach).

[Fast Forward to 08:08] 

DM: As Bruno was saying, I shall say that I like this initiative so much, that I proposed to myself and to the organization for me to go from the north to the south of Portugal to make a collection of what I think is characteristic of our country.  And you will be able to find me somewhere… the script is already set, only missing are the exact dates, but I invite people to go to the website -- Portugal: O Melhor Destino, or go to my Twitter - @D_Moragdo, I will post there the dates and places and invite people to come. I will be around taking pictures and videos…  

CL: Did you made your contribution yet?

DM: I was one of the first ones to do it! I was, wasn’t I?"

End.
