Eliminated after 15 victories and more than €100,000 in winnings, Jérôme gave way to Laurent, the current midday master of the program “Les 12 Coups de midi” broadcast on TF1. This Saturday, January 15, 2022, the candidate thus had to face three new candidates who came to steal his throne. Among them was Virginie, a mother from Alpe d’Huez. In introducing herself, the woman did not fail to specify that she grew up in a region that Jean-Luc Reichmann, the presenter of the program, knows very well.
Indeed if she is now installed at the foot of the mountains, she was born and raised in Toulouse. “The crazy thing is to have gone to live in the mountains when I’m a pure southerner!” she launched. Something to intrigue the host who then asked: “But where were you before?”. “I was born in Toulouse, like you. I was born on November 2, like you… And I went to Sainte-Marie des Champs high school, like you! What a coincidence!” replied Virginia. “No! It’s crazy! You’ve seen, we’re the same age and the same course, it’s quite amazing!” then outbid Jean-Luc Reichman quite shocked.
“It’s a crazy story”
“I was told about you, some teachers alerted me that you had gone to the same school”, then explained Virginie. “So what did the teachers say about me?”, asked Jean-Luc Reichmann. “So many good things, Jean-Luc, so many good things…” replied the candidate. “Did you still have Madame Navarre, History-Geography teacher?” he continued. And Virginie to confirm: “That’s right !”. “It’s a crazy story…” concluded Jean-Luc Reichmann amazed.
