Les 12 coups de midi: Emilien has become the man to take down for his opponents
Due to his status as undefeated champion for over a year. Emilien is regularly challenged to a duel by his competitors. “Only there can we beat him. If he makes a mistake. Otherwise the 60 seconds are gone“, had notably indicated a candidate who had challenged him during the episode of 12 coups de midi broadcast on Thursday November 21, 2024 on TF1.
“Everyone has a bit of the same reasoning throughout the broadcasts. We want to remove Émilien from his post. IIt’s been there for a while now. Whoever manages to bring it down is sure to do so. He has a good chance of winning behind. So I think this is the best chance I have to remove him.”had also highlighted another participant who had challenged Emilien to a duel the same day.
A candidate loses her means in the final against the Maître de midi
Sunday December 15, 2024, the Master of Midday won his 445th victory. After defeating three new opponents. In the final, Emilien was opposed to a young woman named Elodie. During their face-to-face meeting, the candidate, who sells cars, had great difficulty giving the correct answers due to stress. “Do you sell a lot of cars?“, Jean-Luc Reichmann then asked him.
“It’s okay, I’m getting by on that. But not on the questions/answers“, the participant of 12 coups de midi replied. “Yes, but selling cars still makes more money“, the host then replied. “No more than Emilien“, Elodie then retorted. Which made the Master of Midday smile. “He has more cars at home than at our dealership“, she also added, before bursting out laughing.
