Coronavirus: Michel Drucker totally lonely on France 2: Femme Actuelle Le MAG

Like everyone, in these times of covid-19 crisis, the TV Taulier is confined. Confined, certainly, but on its own plate. March 22, 2020, the presenter of Strongly Sunday Michel Drucker arrived alone on the set of France 2's flagship program. No audience and no applause for this program specially dedicated to Jean Ferrat. With the coronavirus crisis, the France Télévisions program teams had to adapt. Michel Drucker thus presented himself alone in front of the cameras, offering viewers a special opening. Hello, it's a more intimate, more personal Sunday that I present to you tonight on France 2 ”, he started, standing, right in the middle of the mythical white and red plateau. "More intimate because there is no audience on the studio Gabriel set for reasons you know." And to clarify, in a deep and solemn voice: “It will be the case for several more Sundays.”

A "Strongly Sunday" particular in times of coronavirus crisis

Another element testified to the exceptional circumstances that dictate new rules for everyone during this covid-19 crisis. At the start of the show, while the stars' friend was presenting the program, viewers could see a banner scrolling down the screen: “This program was recorded before the last government measures linked to the Covid-19 health crisis”, could we read. The show Strongly Sunday was also broadcast on a staggered schedule and started at 4:20 p.m. At the beginning of the afternoon, at 2:10 p.m., the French were able to find Louis de Funès with pleasure thanks to the broadcasting of The big mop, who made an audience card and showed that the inhabitants of the Hexagon undoubtedly needed to change the ideas. Thus, more than 5 million viewers watched this cult film, for a market share of 29.8%. Some attentive Internet users have also noticed with humor that the production and distribution company of The big mop, whose name appeared at the beginning of the film released in 1966, was none other than "Les Films Corona." Difficult, ultimately, to escape the news.
