In the columns of Courier Picardon newsstands Tuesday December 31, 2024, Alison Gagu spoke about her participation in the 12 shots of noonbroadcast in mid-January 2025. The opportunity for the thirty-year-old to discuss a particular request from the production to the candidates who succeed one another facing Émilien, the current Maître de midi.
But how far will Émilien go in his tremendous success at the 12 shots of noon ? This is certainly the question asked by TF1 viewers, who met the young man, a history student in Toulouse, more than a year and a half ago now. Present in Jean-Luc Reichmann's game since September 2023, the 22-year-old from Vendée continues to string together victories thanks to his unfailing general knowledge. Knowledge which allowed him to win no less than sixteen Mysterious Stars and more than 1.8 million euros in winnings and gifts. But the successive candidates facing him have the hope of dethroning him, starting with Alison Gagu, originally from Haute-Somme, whose participation will be broadcast on Saturday January 18, 2025. Aged 31, this mother of three children gave an interview to Courier Picardpublished Tuesday December 31, 2024.
Emilien eliminated from the 12 shots of noon? A candidate responds!
With our colleagues, Alison Gagu looked back on her time at 12 shots of noon. Having left Bray-sur-Somme, in the north of France, the thirty-year-old went to the Paris region to meet the host Jean-Luc-Reichmann and his future opponents, including obviously Émilien, who has become the best player in the history of the show. “We were even warned to take eight business days off, in case the filming had to be back to back if we became Maître de midi,” she revealed to Courier Picard. But don't try to find out if the candidate managed to bring down the great Master of Midday: the production of 12 shots of noon ensures confidentiality is respected. “I can't tell you anything, it's in my contract! All I can divulge is that I did well. You'll have to watch the show on Saturday January 18 at noon to find out”, she simply replied to the regional newspaper.
For Émilien, the 12 coups de midi are “the adventure of a lifetime”
The participants in the 12 shots of noon are in fact bound by confidentiality and cannot reveal the outcome of the filming before the broadcast of the number on TF1. As we write these lines, Émilien still holds the title of Maître de midi, at the head of a very nice prize pool which should allow him to realize his dreams alongside his girlfriend Jessica. “It’s a year for you, for me it’s the adventure of a lifetime. It’s extraordinary, it’s a superb year and see you next year”he declared with emotion on the set of 12 shots of noonDecember 31, 2024.
