Public service is shaking : this Monday January 8, 2024, TF1 brings out the heavy artillery by modifying its schedule. In the morning, the first channel will program a new morning show soberly called Good morning, and who will be played by Bruce Toussaint. The former BFMTV morning worker will be surrounded by around fifteen columnists well identified by viewers, since we will notably find Christophe Beaugrand, Karima Charni, Hélène Mannarino, Ange Noiret and Adrien Gindre. But that’s not all : Bruce Toussaint did not hesitate to steal people from the competition, and notably offered itself two columnists from Telematin, in the persons of the journalist Maud Descamps and the doctor Vincent Valinducq. A hard blow for the France Télévisions teams, who fear this fierce new competition more than ever.
According to information from Parisianthe production of Telematin has already reacted and decided to recruit two personalities well known to viewers: several times a week, the former Miss France Marine Ltemporel will offer a health section, which will compensate for the departure of Vincent Valinducq. But that’s not all: Thomas Sotto and Marie Portolano during the week or Damien Thévenot and Maya Lauqué during the weekend will regularly give “carte blanche” to comedian and impersonator Marc-Antoine Le Bretwhich already regularly intervenes in The Big Heads on RTL, and who will team up with Alex Vizorekwhich offers occasional humorous spots in the morning.
