Baptiste Lecaplain remembers being “terrorized” before performing in Impossible duetswhile his friend absolutely wanted him in a sketch. But the actor had no inspiration. He then thought of another friend… “And I had an idea. If Guillaume Bats comes with us, I would like us to do something like The Hunchback of Notre Dame“he declared without much certainty to Jérémy Ferrari. The latter himself was not very convinced. “I don’t know where we’re going but I like the idea.”he responds spontaneously. However, this is how one of the most well-known and viewed paintings was born – 5 million views – on the comedy gala’s YouTube channel. “It was an incredible memory on stage“admits Baptiste Lecaplain, undoubtedly still thinking of his deceased colleague.
