To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the cult show

As reported by our colleagues from
Parisian
, Patrick Sébastien recounts the "dramatic" genesis of the show.
"I did not want to recognize the body at the morgue"
Patrick Sébastien had the idea for the
Grand Bluff
following the death of his son in a motorcycle accident in July 1990. "I didn't want to recognize the body at the morgue. In my subconscious, I always have this idea that it was not him”, confides the host to C8.
"I imagined him under every biker helmet I saw. And one day, at a gas station, one of them came to see me. He had a beard and I imagined Sébastien in disguise. I said to myself : 'Come on, take it off, I know it's you!'
It all came from that!”, explains the star of the PAF.
