Cyril Féraud launches this Monday at 4:15 p.m. a new daily game on France 3. An original program that he created, mixing entertainment and regions. This new show takes the space previously occupied by “Numbers and letters”. Two families from different regions confront each other in duels of general knowledge, duels of words, images, music. In all, about fifty events will change with each broadcast. 2,000 euros are up for grabs every day and up to 5,000 euros on Fridays.
Families playing all week
And with a particularity: families stay and play all week. “We are used to seeing champions who come back day after day, as they win. There, the families compete for an entire week, that is to say that it creates complicity, it creates an emulation. When we lost, for example on Monday and Tuesday, we are back with all the members of his family to give everything and climb to the final, “explains Cyril Féraud at the microphone of Europe 1.
All in an apartment setting, where families also come to talk about their region, advise viewers of places to visit. And that makes sense, since the regions are the DNA of France 3. Cyril Féraud also created this game for the channel. Duels in families takes the place of another historical game: Numbers and letters. Does Cyril Féraud therefore feel more pressure by launching this program?
A “smart” game
“You have to know that when we did the pilot for this show in December, last year, in December 2021, France 3 had a crush on family duel and told us ‘We want to go there, we want to do it, but we don’t know in which box yet’. And most sincerely in the world, we learned about a fortnight ago, before the first shoots, that we were going to succeed Numbers and letters at 4:15 p.m., which was a big surprise for me. So, is there pressure? There always are. Me, I always put pressure on myself, whatever the program. Now I really hope the fans Numbers and letters will be seduced by family duel. It’s an intelligent game, it’s a game in which we will learn things with a smile and in which we will sweep away all aspects of general culture”.
The show Duels in families airs weekdays at 4:15 p.m. on France 3just before slamthe other game hosted by Cyril Féraud.
