On the program of Antoine Genton's media newspaper, legal setbacks for Canal +, the return of Adriana Karembeu and Michel Cymès for a new issue of "Extraordinary Powers of the Human Body" and a world premiere on Gulli.
Canal + sued by UFC-Que Choisir
The consumer defense association will file a group action against Canal today - before the Nanterre court.
She asks for the reimbursement of sums illegally invoiced by the channel.
In 2017, Canal + had imposed a price increase on some of its subscribers - an increase described as wild by the UFC-Que Choisir.
Canal + ended up admitting his guilt and paying a fine last year.
But she refused to take the initiative to reimburse affected subscribers, hence the lawsuit filed today.
Canal + no longer wishes to broadcast all the matches of the French football championship
The channel only wants the best Ligue 1 posters for next season.
That's
L'Equipe
who said this morning.
The Professional Football League is looking for a solution.
She got in touch with Dazn.
She is discussing with the platform specializing in sport the possibility of broadcasting the other matches of the championship.
Marie-Sophie Lacarrau absent from the TF1 antenna
It will be for a few more days.
The presenter of the 1 p.m. newspaper tested positive for Covid.
She announced it on social media.
In the meantime, it is her joker, Jacques Legros, who replaces her.
The focus of the day - this is the new unpublished issue of
Extraordinary Powers of the Human Body
on France 2
Issue devoted to taste and smell.
Topical topic because of the Covid, but this disease, it is very little question, and only at the end of the show.
Before that, a lot of experiments to understand how these two senses work, how they can be influenced depending on where you are, also influenced by the color of a plate or the shape of a food.
It's amazing !
Experiences carried out by the two hosts - Adriana Karembeu and Michel Cymès, who never stop teasing each other (this is one of the hallmarks of the show).
Adriana Karembeu who seemed to have a much better sense of smell than her playmate. What does not vary is the bond of the duo.
They have been working together for 9 years to the delight of the facilitator.
The Extraordinary Powers of the human body
on the mysteries of taste and smell, this evening at 9:05 p.m. on France 2.
Beijing Express
victim of its success
The show is overwhelmed by applications.
She received 60,000 for the next season, the 15th.
A record.
And it's not over - the casting is still open for a good two weeks, until May 15th.
60,000 applications, at least, whereas usually there are nearly 40,000 - which is not bad.
This is what the host of the show told the 20 Minutes newspaper.
Stéphane Rotenberg who presents the final of season 14, this evening at 9:05 pm, on M6.
A first for Gulli, tonight
First live bonus.
It will be the show by comedian and magician Eric Antoine,
Connexions
- a show created last December to be played remotely.
It has already been featured on Zoom, several times but not yet on television.
Live on TV - it's a risky bet for a magician.
The show was designed to be viewed through a screen.
Small difficulty: keep the interactive side of the show, while it will not see the spectators behind their television, only those who will be on Zoom.
But Eric Antoine has planned several experiences that viewers can follow.
He will learn how to tear and reconstitute toilet paper: a nod to the rays robbed during the first confinement.
There will be an unpublished number, created especially for Gulli.
A world first that Eric Antoine has agreed to reveal to us.
"Normally magicians always have the predictions on their side of the stage, it is never the viewer who opens it. Here I try something that has never been done: send a prediction in the mail."
Connections
by Eric Antoine can be seen tonight at 9:05 pm on Gulli, TNT channel 18 - it's free.
Also to be continued via Zoom, but there the show is paying.
€ 25 per connection, regardless of the number of people participating.
An amazing story to end ...
That of a young Russian, hired as a translator in a Chinese tele-hook “Produce Camp 2021”.
The production eventually asked him to take part in the show, which he agreed to.
He quickly regretted it.
He openly showed his lack of motivation on the air.
He even said "don't love me, it won't get you anywhere".
But he was not heard.
His character appealed to the public who systematically voted for him to stay (he could not give up on pain of paying a heavy fine).
Against his will, he reached the final, where he was knocked out this weekend, much to his relief.
