We had not seen him on TF1 since the end of the year celebrations six months ago, but he is back in force.

Next Friday, Camille Combal will host the

Marble Mania 

marbles competition 

and this Saturday, he will be at the head of

Camille and Images

, a format he is co-producing.

Cult TV sequences, funny images of confinement, the host takes control of a format halfway between blooper and zapping with Artus, Lola Dubini, Hakim Jemili, Philippe Lellouche and Clara Luciani.

Fan of Emile and Images (and especially of the song 

Closest to the stars

), Camille Combal presents at

20 Minutes

this program with the funny name.

What will

Camille et Images

look like

 ?

It's a zapping of confinement, we come back to the highlights of the year that made us laugh.

We are not going to put Angela Merkel announcing that she is leaving the government, it is less my role, I am less expected on that.

We also allow ourselves to go to cult images that we love to see and see again.

It's a zapping with guests on the set.

Afterwards, it's our sauce, that is to say it's our way of interpreting images, as we like to tamper with them, to laugh about them, to play with them.

It's a TV night with friends and with all the people who are going to watch us.

So these are not just images taken from confinement?

It's a lot of recent images but we can start with things a bit old-fashioned. We have not verified that each image of the networks has been filmed between such and such a date, it is not contractual. If the image is one year and two months old, we pass it and we are very happy. The goal is to have fun. There is a lot of TV from all over the world and there are also all the new ways we have had to work: the failed Zooms, everything that happened in telecommuting, the geniuses of the containment, all those who have figured out how to get out on the street. We are going to try to sweep all that aside. Afterwards, we had so many laughs that we have a lot of images that we didn't have time to go through. We had seven or eight categories to do, and we could only do four or five because we were very late,we did too many things on set.

How was the show born?

It is a desire of TF1 to make a program of images for the summer, as they are used to doing.

They have always made bloopers during Christmas periods and during the summer.

This is our version.

These are cult images, original images but we have our way of treating them with the guests.

It's a show that you are co-producing.

Is it additional stress?

I learned something with TV, which is that you can order a program from you three weeks before, three months before, three years before, the last two weeks, whatever happens, it's the rush. It's a bit of a rush but we worked well. We are stressed that we like it. Obviously we would like to have a lot of audience, we are lucky to have done that with

La Grande Incruste

. The most important thing is that people like it. There is the audience side but there is also the side in the street, when you get out of the lines of

La Grande Incruste

, it's too fun.

Once again, we are not revolutionizing the PAF.

I just hope that the show, with a lot of humility, will bring some good humor, will allow people to think of something else, to get away from it all, that's the only point of the thing.

I hope she will like it.

That's what stresses me out, people like it.

I am always afraid of disappointing people.

You are at the head of

Dance with the stars

,

La Grande Incruste

,

Who Wants to

Be a Millionaire

,

Mask Singer

… Will all this come back?

All the brands you just mentioned will come back, even

Plan C

normally.

In this health context, it is impossible to turn, we are not going to do

Carpool Karaoke

 with masks and wash our hands every two seconds.

We have to wait for the health context to allow it.

This is also why

DALS

jumped this year, you couldn't dance a merengue from 1.5 meters away while wearing the mask, it's not easy.

We tried the FFP2 on Denitsa, it's not phew.

We hope to bring everything back and we are still working on other things.

If you had a message for TF1 executives, what would you like to ask them?

After giving me the show where everyone is in cuddly toys, after giving me the bead show, I'm counting on you to call me for the next WTF lunar show that will be in your head.

If it's a show where you have to join Thomas Pesquet in a hot air balloon, if it's a show where you have to go around Ile-de-France on foot, I don't know.

Do not hesitate to call me anyway, I will always be.
