End clap for the “Crime à…” collection on France 3. The series of TV films carried by Florence Pernel and Lola Dewaere (“Astrid and Raphaëlle”) will end in January after nine years of existence, with a final unpublished opus, “Crime in Ramatuelle”.
The investigations of the prosecutor Élisabeth Richard and the captain of the gendarmerie Caroline Martinez will stop on France 3.
The channel has just announced that Crime à Ramatuelle, which will be broadcast on January 7 at 9:10 p.m., will be the last TV movie in the “Crime à…” collection carried by Florence Pernel and Lola Dewaere (Astrid and Raphaëlle).
Contacted by us, France 3 explained to us that “the series ends with a view to renewing the brands of France Télévisions, after 9 years on the air”.
A policy of renewal which, this year, has already caused the end of several detective brands of France 3 such as Police of Characters, Please Investigate and Perfect Crimes.
On this subject, Anne Holmes, director of programs and director of fiction at France Télévisions, told us last September: “If we want to launch pilots, we have to stop certain fictions”.
Moreover, according to our information, the upcoming season 7 of Tandem, which will be offered during the first half of 2023 on France 3, should also mark the end of the series with Astrid Veillon and Stéphane Blancafort.

A last “Crime à…” in January on France 3
Launched in March 2014 with Crime in Aveyron, the “Crime à…” collection will therefore include a total of ten TV films, each based on an investigation bringing together a judicial police officer and a magistrate from the public prosecutor’s office.
The only actress in the series to appear in each episode, Florence Pernel, alias Elisabeth Richard, has had several successive partners over the various opuses in the collection: Vincent Winterhalter first, then Guillaume Cramoisan and Lola Dewaere from the sixth TV movie , Crime in the Luberon.
The last TV movie in the series, Crime à Ramatuelle, will be broadcast on Saturday January 7 on France 3 and will see Florence Pernel and Lola Dewaere resume their roles one last time (Guillaume Cramoisan not appearing in the credits of this “final”). With by their side Matthieu Burnel and Florent Peyre, already present in Crime in Biot last year.
