For two weeks, only one episode cut in half was broadcast on Friday evening on TF1. Many fans were annoyed with this shortened program, with one of the episodes truncated without elimination. "We made this decision in order to delay the final as much as possible, so that it can take place as planned live", explains Denis Brogniart. The containment measures prevent for the moment to bring together the presenter and the candidates in the recording studio.
Other episodes cut before the final?
"We do not know exactly if we will cut other programs until the end ..." warns the host. The production intends to push back the date of the last episode as much as possible, so that it takes place in the most classic conditions possible. "We want to be able to bring together the 20 adventurers and celebrate this great season as it should be," he smiles.
