Los Fraguel is Spain's version of Fraggle Rock, originally broadcast over TVE beginning in the fall of 1985. Like most of the international versions, it was a dub, with no new Doc or postcard footage.
Unlike most of the other dubs at the time, it translated the entire series through to the end.
The intro opens with a voice-over: "El centro del universo es sin duda un lugar maravilloso excavado en la roca llamado Fraggle Rock" ("The center of the universe is undoubtedly a wonderful place carved into the rock, called Fraggle Rock.")
The series' popularity in Spain led to translations of the Marvel Comics comic book, as well as such unauthorized tributes as an alternative rock band called "Los Fraguels" and a Fraguel Rock Bar in Madrid, with Boober in the logo.
In 2003, original puppets of Gobo, Wembley, and Red were donated to the Museu Internacional de Titelles de Albaida, located in Valencia, in honor of the series' 20th anniversary. The first season was released on DVD in Spain in 2005.
A Castilian Spanish redub was produced by Deluxe Spain for Apple TV+ in 2020. While the characters' dub names are kept, the Castilian Spanish credits used the original English names.
