But also in front of his show: “this game of fools with strangers who think they’re stars and who are afraid of a little spider.” Whether it’s Blanche (Tamara Payne) who offers him an anthology rock/paper/scissors and confusing Jérôme de Warzée in La boule (“have you lost weight?”), chef Willy who looks “like a Libyan terrorist” or a Father Fouras in great shape. Played by James Deano, this wise old cult of the Fort would be “a big pervert who has been convicted several times”. And Damien Gillard, parodying Olivier Minne, then gave him a “stop busting your balls by throwing out your verbs at the end of sentences, you’ll be like the Flemish Yoda!”
“Ahhhh technicians, hello little ones, how are you?”
Without forgetting the highlight of the sketch, the famous and famous enigma of Father Fouras (“day or night you can savor me, I am said to have the odor of holiness but for that you must first of all taste me: who am I?). What could have ended up as a “pet-de-nonne” (a pastry) will ultimately be… “abbé Pierre’s b***.” “Because you have to live in it.” Hilarity on set. “He’s mentally ill!” concludes the fake Olivier Minne.
Louis de Funès leaves this body
In the first part of the show, Kody also parodied Didier Reynders and his money laundering woes. With, as lawyer, an overexcited master Aucaigne imitating Louis de Funès. A great moment from Pierre Aucaigne (famous for his character Momo) who calls Jérôme de Warzée “Waar is de zee”. Just like Fabrizio’s return to New York (“in the rain, it’s like Charleroi“), Olivier de Benoist’s “love letter” or this parody of American Christmas TV films poorly dubbed into French. Between a lip that doesn’t match, stupid situations (“what’s stupid” we hear the guests, laughing) and repeated beeps at each insult or sexual allegation, the caricature of the duo Giroud and Stotz hits the mark.
Finally, at the very end of the show, the actors offered a medley of Christmas songs including one by Slimane (“Come on, we love each other”), played by the excellent Fabian Le Castel (who had already parodied him in last May). Or when the Grand Cactus already dares to laugh at the accusations of sexual assault from the interpreter of “Mon Amour”. As soon as Fabian Le Castel parodies the title in his own way and sings “We bleed”, Jérôme de Warzée then asks the “technicians to intervene” for Slimane and get him out. And Slimane’s character retorts: “Ahhhh technicians, hello little ones, how are you?”
The show can be seen again here on Auvio.
