That's it, it's over. Goodbye to the Tuesday morning debrief of “Love is in the meadow”, which (I hope) fueled your coffee breaks or your lunches with colleagues. Rest assured, we're not going to say goodbye like on a train station platform, M6's flagship program is already preparing its twentieth season for the start of next year. In the meantime, Monday evening, the public once again responded (4.26 million viewers) for the second and final episode of the report.
Gilles and Marie, we each pulled so much on our side
You will have understood, the soundtrack of this article revolves around Jean-Louis Aubert's hit, That's it, it's over. And “pulled each on our own”, Gilles and Marie did it, by visiting each other after the program, despite the 800 km separating them. But the distance got the better of their feelings, the two septuagenarians recording their breakup on a bench, facing the sea. Little Marie, in her little voice (Francis Cabrel, are you there?), did not hide her tears, facing camera. “I gave my all, I did everything necessary and I think that Gillou is not up to it, that he doesn’t deserve me.” Also moved, the party-loving farmer draws a bitter conclusion alongside host Karine Le Marchand: “I accept a lot of things, apart from the distance”.
Pascal and Murielle ended up saying that we would avoid the worst
Still feeling sluggish, Pascal showed up alone for the review of “L’amour est dans le pré”. The announcement of the breakup did not go unnoticed. And the production composed, like me, with a musical title that was original to say the least. The latter chose to play “I’m coming back to piss you off”, a parody of the song I'll come back for you by Gilbert Bécaud. A parody that has gone viral on social networks. A timely choice nonetheless as the separation, recorded by Murielle with her farmer, was cruel. The candidate for love notably criticized Pascal for lacking hygiene and not being seductive. Hence Karine Le Marchand's relevant advice to Pascal: “You have to learn to seduce, to keep the flame alive in everyday life.”
Ludovic and Giulia, the end of Lyrics, lyrics
Come on, let's change records a little. Make way for “Words, words” by Dalida. Because Ludovic, the winemaker with the expression “fifty-fifty” who will remain in the annals of this season of “ADP”, has long procrastinated – and chatted – between his two suitors, Manon and Mélanie. Seeming to live perfect love with the latter, Ludo made a surprising revelation: he is no longer with Mélanie! “We have temperaments that are not made to be together. I wasn’t comfortable,” the young man assured Karine Le Marchand. But the latter is not a heart to take, since he met a young woman named Giulia. “She’s like me, she makes big statements.” Words, words, I tell you!
Renaud and Anne, Mistral winner
When your name is Renaud, the musical choice is even more obvious: Mistral winner. “Hearing your laughter which cracks the walls, which above all knows how to heal my wounds”, perfectly sums up Renaud and Anne’s assessment. Appearing more radiant than ever with a new haircut, Anne seems to have “healed the wounds” of the farmer, a great friend of Gillou, who remained in a difficult relationship. Bursts of laughter and beautiful declarations, the two lovebirds seem to be carried by the wind of love. Better yet, Anne left her region to settle in with Renaud.
Christophe and Yann, divine idyll
How to listen to a playlist of French songs without a Vanessa Paradis hit? During the season, Christophe told how he had hidden his homosexuality for years. The farmer, who initially had a crush on Guillaume, arrived, in the end, on the arm of his second suitor, Yann. After a weekend in the north of France, at Yann's, the friendly suitor announced to Karine Le Marchand that he had gone to the South to come and settle in with Christophe and live a divine idyll. They are among the eight couples (out of twelve contenders) in season 19 of “L’amour est dans le pré” which will have won many hearts.
