Laurent Ruquier officiates every day on the show The Big Heads on RTL. Accustomed to this type of program, the host is one of the few who imposes a rule on his team when filming his shows. Confidences.
Laurent Ruquier revealed a whole new side of his personality on the show The Traitors. And she is her friend and columnist of Big HeadsCharlotte de Turckheim who pushed him to participate in this new season, after having been captivated by her participation last summer. The actress seems to be at the origin of many vocations, because Stomy Bugsy also claimed to have joined the cast thanks to her. This year, Laurent Ruquier decided to make a change in his career by abandoning political and cultural interviews to devote himself to entertainment shows. If he is still at the head of Big headshe was also an investigator on the show Mask Singer on TF1. A change of direction that he confides on Guillaume Pley’s YouTube channel.
Why are Laurent Ruquier’s shows so long?
Laurent Ruquier left his mark on the France 2 channel with his show We are not lying downA program known for its buzz, but also for its length, broadcast in the middle of the night. “The later we went into the night, the more market share we gained”explains Laurent Ruquier, revealing the objectives of producer Catherine Barma, even if she was losing viewers. Despite the length of his shows, the RTL host imposed one rule: never stop. “When I shoot, I like it to shoot and it’s over. You can manage if you have to pee.”Laurent Ruquier then says.
“It’s a bit difficult the way we work today”confides Laurent Ruquier
“Even for the Big heads besides. For 2h30-3h, I don’t take any breaks. (Editor’s note: The columnists.) They’ll pee whenever they want, I don’t care, I don’t want to stop. I find that we lose the feeling, we lose the energy.“justifies Laurent Ruquier, who deplores a change of mentality in filming methods. “For me, the way we work today is a bit difficult. We tend to start all over again, to redo, to stop for this, for that. In this case, Barma listened to me, she understood. We never stopped.”explains Laurent Ruquier. The key to success for a show that lasted 14 years.
