As surprising as it may seem, François Vérove participated in the show Everyone wants to take its place in 2019. If this name doesn’t mean anything to you, it’s actually the serial killer better known as “The Pocked”. The man admitted in a letter, written before taking his own life in September 2021, to having committed several murders between the 1980s and 1990s.
These are our colleagues from Marianne who found images of Grêlé on the set of the show France 2 formerly led by Nagui before Laurence Boccolini and Jarry succeeded him.

An incognito arrival
A few days after the broadcast of these archive images, Nagui partially reacted to the controversy over France Inter. “It’s an interesting story, beyond that. There are people who would be happy to hear you about it”launched Tanguy Pastureau in his column before the host simply replied: “To say what? That I had nothing to do with it?”.
Guest on the show Hello Alex
It is Magali Ripollthe host’s sidekick in Do not forget the lyrics, who was questioned on the subject. Alexandra Roost indeed sought to find out what the reaction of Nagui when he learned that Le Grêlé had gone to his set, incognito.
Magali Ripoll still can’t believe it
“I can’t speak for Nagui of course. But Nagui, in this, is only an element, a detail of this situation. That is to say, it could have been, that’s it, Jean-Luc Reichmann, Cyril Féraud”first indicated Magali Ripoll before the journalist retorts: “Yes, but he was the one who got the scoop because this serial killer committed suicide in 2021. He was wanted, he never gave an interview, it was Nagui who got him in front to him, who shook his hand, obviously without knowing who he was, but it was still crazy”.
The host’s sidekick finally recognized that the situation is “crazy”. Especially the fact “that this guy came on TV in a show”. “But what the fuck? Anyway, I think he was completely crazy. So there, it’s very complex, it’s fragile, it’s intangible. And it’s true that Nagui found himself face to face with him. But my God I can’t even imagine if he had known, very soon after, that this person was that kind of person… yes, it’s shocking”she finally admitted, still embarrassed by imagining the situation.
