Atresmedia and ITV are considering suing Mediaset over the similarity between 'Rueda la letra' and 'Pasapalabra'

Telecinco has launched a new game show called Rueda la letra, which features a segment called El rosco, a famous TV challenge. The show's host, Carlos Sobera, announced the show's premiere, referencing the return of a prodigal son. El rosco was originally a part of Antena 3's Pasapalabra, but ITV, the British production company behind Pasapalabra, owns the rights to the El rosco brand. Sobera mentioned El rosco several times during the show, seemingly addressing ITV's lawyers.
