Patrick Bruel victim of a rare “technical incident” on TF1: the front page makes a big decision

Cult play, adaptation of the play The First Name is just as much so thanks to the remarkable performance of the actors who took part in the film by Alexandre De La Patellière and Matthieu Delaporte. Among them, Patrick Bruel, Charles Berling, Guillaume de Tonquédec, Judith El Zein, and the late Valérie Benguigui.

A casting which allowed the film to be praised by critics and still attract viewers, even several years after its release in cinemas which dates from April 25, 2012. This is why television channels do not hesitate never to offer this comedy every year.

TMC had for example decided to offer it to its viewers last Wednesday, November 27. But the broadcast experienced a rare technical problem.

Technical bug for “Le Prénom” on TMC

Indeed, the broadcast of the comedy with Patrick Bruel began at 9:28 p.m., as is often the case on the group's channel. But after 10 p.m., when the first page of advertisements launched, the film The First Name surprised viewers.

Because when the film returned, it did not resume where the broadcast had left off. Indeed, TMC effectively restarted the film from its credits, forcing people in front of their television to see the scenes they had witnessed a few minutes earlier. Channel 10 unfortunately failed to rectify the situation.

Patrick Bruel finally back on TMC

As noted by our colleagues from Parisian, “after having rebroadcast the same first half hour, a new advertising session was launched at 10:42 p.m. Instead of offering the sequel to 'Prénom' with Patrick Bruel, TMC continued at 10:48 p.m. with 'Barbaque', another comedy by and with Fabrice Éboué”.

On the side of TF1the string indicates that it is a “incident technique rare”, and assures that he has taken “all measures” so that it does not happen again.

To make amends, our colleagues emphasized that TMC had made the decision to broadcast the comedy with Patrick Bruel in the coming weeks, once again. “TMC will once again broadcast Le Prénom during the end-of-year holidays“, announced the group TF1.
