It’s been almost 13 years since the show Les 12 coups de midi is a hit on TF1. A success which is not surprising, when we know the endearing personality of the person presenting the game. Indeed, Jean-Luc Reichmann has a lot of experience on TV and radio. Moreover, in a survey published last December, he even ranks as the French’s favorite presenter. This news undoubtedly touched him a lot! Thus, the famous program does not seem to be stopping any time soon. But recently there has been something new. To start, Stéphane Patingre finally lost his role as midday master. After him, several champions tried to win, but without managing to go the distance. For now, the title goes again to Florian, a young man of 23 years old. And recently, he revealed the item he wants to win above all else in the window…
The 12 coups de midi: winnings and prizes
As a reminder, here is a little reminder about the principle of the show: 3 new participants compete around questions of general culture. The goal? Dethrone the master of midday. But of course, there are many other issues in the 12 noon shots. Like the mysterious star. This is an enigma, which hides the name of a famous personality. The champion has 12 seconds to guess the identity of the star. And it can rely on visual clues, revealed over the days. If he wins, he wins prizes. And by anyone! In the window, we find objects of great value, such as cars or scooters. Enough to nicely complete the winners’ prize pool.
So, after his 153 passages in the 12 strokes of noon, Stéphane has totaled more than 178,143 euros in earnings, just in gifts (digital objects, household appliances, vehicles, etc.). But recently, a new champion has appeared on the set. This is Florian, a young man only 23 years old. Interesting fact: his brother Nicolas, has already had the opportunity to hold the title of Maître de midi in the past. However, according to the new champion, he had not been too generous with his winnings.
« My brother didn’t give me anything from his window. He didn’t even give me the console he won. »
However, Florian had a fairly simple desire…
Passion for video games
Indeed, the new champion explained that he didn’t really think about the most expensive prizes. The gadget he wants the most is still much more affordable than a car.
« I just wanted one thing, a game console, the Switch! This is the thing I coveted the most. »
Let’s hope that the new champion will be able to leave the 12 strokes of noon with the famous object in his pocket. As for his brother Nicolas, he may well give him back his own coin.
“I’m not going to give my brother anything. Eye for eye, tooth for tooth ! He already had everything plus. »
A curious dream for those who already have more than ten victories in the show. However, the master of midday also knows how to be reasonable, and even very attentive to those close to him. Moreover, last Thursday, Jean-Luc Reichmann noticed that Florian had cut his hair. The young man then gave the reason for this change, in the 12 strokes of noon. And his confidences totally upset the host.
« My mother was diagnosed with cancer. so she went to chemotherapy. She lost her hair. And to support her, I decided to cut my hair and donate it to an association to make wigs. »
