Saturday August 5, Philippe Etchebest took the lead of a team in Fort Boyard. The chef had to carry out a test with a teammate whom he described as a “ball”.
The Dino Rodeo, pirate boards, the fight, the garage, watchmaking… Every Saturday evening, a sign that summer is here, the famous adventure game Fort Boyard – and its formidable trials – is making a comeback on France 2, to the delight of young and old viewers. This year again, the program is renewed to amuse the fans. The candidates must face dangers they know… but also new perils. In parallel with the tests, they are confronted with the strengths of Father Fouras. In 2023, we discovered the mysterious Jokers, but also a team divided in two.
Saturday August 5, the chef Philippe Etchebest took the lead of a team made up of Diane Leyre (Miss France 2022)of Thomas Voeckler (cyclist)of Claude Dartois (Koh Lanta) and of Carla Lazzari (singer). A sixth person – not a personality – was also there to defend the association Pompiers solidaires: a firefighter named Julien Le Marec. Moreover, because of the cursed asset of Father Fouras, the candidates were entitled to the support of a seventh person, A “cursed teammate”. The famous juror of Top chef was not kind to him, going as far as qualify it as “ball”.

Philippe Etchebest: “I don’t want to hear you”
And it was none other than Magloire! The ex-columnist Morning Live (M6) – who has embodied the genius Magik since 2019 in the Fakir test and had participated in 2017 as a candidate –, landed this Saturday as a participant in the 34th edition of the game show. “Whoever is chosen will be attached to this seventh candidate”immediately warned Olivier Minne. And it was Philippe Etchebest who had this honor.
“What a pleasure to join the team”, reacted Magloire. On the other hand, Philippe Etchebest was far from being so delighted. “Ah yes, it’s a cannonball!”, exclaimed the chef when he saw him arrive at the fort. And to add, foreseeing what was going to happen to him: “It’s not funny, it’s not funny.”
Philippe Etchebest and his playing partner had to participate together in the Bank’s now cult event. Authoritarian, the star of Kitchen nightmare immediately wanted to set things straight: “So listen to me. I’m going to tell you something. Don’t yell, okay? I don’t want to hear you yell.” Strict instructions which obviously provoked the laughter of his comrades. During the ordeal, as the chef feared, Magloire didn’t stay calm for long. Nevertheless, although both were attached, which complicated their progress, a key was recovered!
