Gauthier Le Bret succeeds Julien Pasquet, on parental leave
Gauthier Le Bret actually replaces Julien Pasquet, currently on parental leave. The one who officiated for the last time in “L’heure des pros” this Monday, January 6, 2025, said a little more about his new role and about the show itself to Pascal Praud: “'100% political' changes the formula a little since it is shortened by half an hour (Olivier Benkemoun is expected at 11:30 p.m. for “The best of the news”, editor's note). We are going to try to do a hosting show in the evening, a rhythmic show in which I will try to put all my energy into making it work“, he declared. And detailed: “We are going to offer you different sequences with an editorial that I will provide at the opening, carte blanche for the columnists, a political duel at 10 p.m. (Julien Odoul, deputy for the Yonne National Rally will face Karl Olive, deputy for Ensemble pour this evening the Republic of Yvelines), a top/flop every day“.

BFMTV launches its “20 Heures” with Maxime Switek
Gauthier Le Bret, on CNews, will face the second hour of “20H BFM”, a new two-hour slot presented from Monday to Thursday by Maxime Switek. “We will offer viewers a '20 Hours' with all its codes, but adding a little 'twist'. We are going to try to dust off this format, moving away from the classic litany and bringing some good humor. Those who follow me on BFMTV know that even if I am serious and rigorous, I always have a little eye that curls“, the journalist told “La Tribune Dimanche”.I am aware that the guests do not yet know about this new meeting. But our ambition is to tickle TF1 and France 2 a little so that important speeches are also made here. And this in all areas“.
