Josep-Lluís Carod-Rovira led Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya and became one of the most recognisable voices in Catalan politics during his time in the Catalan government. The clip comes from his appearance on the TVE programme Tengo una pregunta para usted, a format built around members of the public questioning senior politicians directly. His short self-introduction was clipped and shared online in Catalonia and Spain, where it survives less as news footage than as an in-joke about pronunciation, language choice and insisting on being addressed by your proper name.
