Manuel Luís Goucha


Manuel Luís Nunes Sousa Goucha is a Portuguese television presenter and journalist . He is the presenter of a long-lasting morning show in RTP, followed by another in rival TVI, Goucha was also known for culinary TV programmes and books, as well as a brief spell as an actor. He also owns a restaurant. Having publicly come out in the late 2000s, he is one of the best known Portuguese public figures who are openly homosexual. In spite of this, he is often criticized by Portuguese LGBT organizations, whose stance he dismisses.
Until August 2018, Cristina Ferreira presented the morning show Você na TV! with him, which he then continued to present with Maria Cerqueira Gomes. It was in that same show that, in January 2019, Goucha interviewed convicted criminal and Portuguese neo-nazi leader, for a conversation with the theme "Do we need a new Salazar?", which was widely panned. Você na TV! ended in December 2020 and Goucha now presents the afternoon show Goucha, which has been aired by TVI since January 2021.
