Since August 2021, Cyril Féraud is in charge of the daily gameFamily duelswhich he himself designed and which he produces and hosts every day of the week, instead of the cult game Numbers and letters, demoted to the weekend. In this new family game, Cyril Féraud pits two families from two diverse regions against each other, around questions of general culture. Families can win up to two thousand euros per day, and come back as many times as they can, until they are dethroned by another winning family. A game which was a great success, and which allowed France 3 to see its audiences progress in this time slot previously occupied by Laurent Romejko, Arielle Boulin-Prat and Bertrand Renard.
This Wednesday February 28, 2024, while he hosted a new unpublished Family duelsCyril Féraud was surprised by the surprise arrival of the host of whom he is the biggest fan: Michel Drucker ! The octogenarian, who has experienced many health problems in recent months, has returned since the start of the school year to host
Looking forward to Sunday
, every Sunday on France 3. At first glance, Cyril Féraud’s astonishment and emotion leave little room for doubt as to the surprise of this sequence. Either the host is a very good actor, or he was truly trapped by his production teams and was not informed of the arrival of the man he nicknamed “the boss”.
Half a century separates them
“I’m going to do television, I need advice” ironically mocked the sacred monster of the French audiovisual landscape. Cyril Féraud, speechless, had a hard time getting his show back to normal: “But I’m hallucinating!” It must be said that Cyril Féraud was lulled by Michel Drucker’s broadcasts. Born in 1985, forty-three years separate him from his idol. When he was born, Michel Drucker had already been doing television for more than twenty years. In this year 2024, the host will celebrate his 60 years of television, after starting as a commentator for the 1964 Olympic Games. The sports journalist gradually turned to magazines and streams, and hosted numerous shows that became great monuments, such as Champs-Élysées, Studio Gabriel, Stars 90 or Sunday meetings. If Michel Drucker began his television career in 1964, Cyril Féraud started it forty-five years later… in 2009 !
