The Historically Vôtre team, led by Matthieu Noël and Stéphane Bern, is celebrating its 200th program on the occasion of the 35th anniversary of Coluche's death, Friday June 18 between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.
What do Coluche, Joseph Grimaldi and Boris Yeltsin have in common?
A big red nose!
The shock duo will be surrounded by their usual acolytes Clémentine Portier-Kaltenbach, David Castello-Lopes and Olivier Poels.
For this special, the Historically Yours team brings together 3 characters who have a big red nose:
• Coluche
, who
died in 1986 and who officiated at the blue microphone of Europe1 where he launched, on September 26, 1985, in particular an improvised appeal for solidarity which gave birth to the Restos du coeur; a big-hearted clown with his curly hair, his round belly, his striped overalls, but a clown like no other, with that voice and that banter recognizable among a thousand ... a provocateur who liked to put his feet in the dish.
• Joseph Grimaldi
,
Prince of Laughter, he became one of the greatest British clowns of the early 19th century.
His life was told by the great Charles Dickens in the book
The Adventures of Joseph Grimaldi
.
•
And a politician who also had a big red nose and a very pronounced taste for vodka:
Boris Yeltsin
.

Romain Goupil, filmmaker and director, who was the friend of Coluche and his campaign manager during the 1981 presidential elections, and Pascal Jacob, circus historian and author of
Clowns
, to be published in the fall by Editions du Seuil will be the guests of this special.
David Castello-Lopes will come back to the origins of the "beep beep when the trucks are backing up", Clémentine Portier-Kaltenbach will take the listeners behind the scenes of the appeal of June 18 with Elisabeth de Méribel, the secretary of General de Gaulle who typed in the machine the text spoken that day by the general at the BBC ... And to celebrate this 200th program Olivier Poels will tell the story of Rosé champagne!
As with every program, the "Bern To Be Alive" quiz will allow listeners to test Stéphane Bern's knowledge, by confronting him with historical questions ... from the most pointed to the most eccentric!
