Intervilles: these emblematic cities of the show refuse the new version of France Télé

ENTERTAINMENT – We don’t joke with the cow. The cult show Intervilles will return in the summer of 2025 on France Télévisions but two emblematic cities of the game refuse to participate. In question: the absence of the famous cow.

Thus, and Mont-de-Marsan, outraged by the exclusion of the cow, announced that they will not participate in the new version of Intervilles. However, both cities have a great history with the show as each has won it three times. In 1962, 1971 and 2008 for Dax and in 1998, 2006 and 2007 for Mont-de-Marsan.

The mayor of Dax, Julien Dubois, explained to France Bleu Gascogne that he had been contacted by the production company, which “confirmed the absence of cows”. “This implies that they would suffer trauma by participating in Intervilles. Which is absolutely not the case. In this context, we declined the proposal made to us,” he declared.

And obviously no regrets at not being part of the adventure, even though Dax was the first city to win the game in the year it was created in 1962. The mayor emphasizes that “It was then a show that took place within a certain framework, and not with underlying messages that did not correspond to us”.

The original show denatured »

The feeling is shared by the mayor of Mont-de-Marsan, Charles Dayot. He also believes that the idea that cows could suffer from the emission is erroneous. “ I think that indirectly, it is also, not a form of attack, but a denigration of the traditions surrounding animals like the Landes cow and others… and it is obvious that the town of Mont-de-Marsan has not not much to do with an Intervilles without cows”he told France Bleu.

Referring to a distorted broadcast, the mayor regrets that this new concept is far from that of the first version, even though it is the latter which “filled the arenas”. He knows something about it since in 2007, he was the captain of the Mons team which won.

“Intervilles without the cows, it’s a bit like surimi or Canada Dry, it lacks flavorhe insisted to France Bleu Gascogne. More seriously, Intervilles without cows is not Intervilles. It’s something else, it’s a fair, or a game show of some sort, but it’s not called Intervilles.”

For this new version of the show, France Télévisions has relied on iconic faces from its channels: Nagui therefore returns as conductor, surrounded by several other hosts and in particular Bruno Guillon.
