Doan is currently shining with his performances in Everyone wants to take their place, on France 2. However, the champion has already achieved greater feats on another channel, in 2007.
Everyone wants to take their place is an institution.
Launched for the first time on France 2 in 2006,
the show was initially hosted by Nagui, who held the helm until 2021. She then saw the presenters succeed one another. First of all,
Laurence Boccolini tried the exercise but only lasted two seasons. Comedian Jarry then played the program for a (very) short time (one season), before giving way to Cyril Féraud.
The presenters are not the only ones playing the game of musical chairs in Everyone wants to take their place. The champions also come one after the other. Viewers particularly remember Marie Christine, an emblematic champion who won €196,900, 4 trips and 1 car in 2018. More recently, the public was also able to delight in the exceptional abilities of Blaise or Isabelle.
A game presented by Benjamin Castaldi where Doan had shone
But at the moment, it's Doan who reigns over the France 2 show. The fifty-year-old veterinarian has occupied Cyril Féraud's red chair since November 14, 2024, succeeding Anne, who herself had put an end to Isabelle's (very beautiful) journey. Monday, November 25, the candidate has just won his twelfth duel against the challenger. To date, his prize pool amounts to 13,900 euros. A nice and (almost) tidy sum, yet far from another performance achieved by this gaming fan in the past.
Doan is not new to television sets. Far from it. In 2007, he participated in the 1 against 100 game presented by Benjamin Castaldi and broadcast on TF1. Due to lack of audience, this game was not broadcast for long on the first channel. The veterinarian nevertheless had plenty of time to demonstrate his skills.
Doan, his extraordinary performance in 2007
During the very last stage of the game, broadcast precisely on April 11, 2007, Doan managed to eliminate all his opponents from the wall (100 people!) on questions of general knowledge. This feat had earned Doan the sum of 200,000 eurosthe maximum gain of the emission.
This TV game addict had also already participated in Everyone Wants to Take Their Place in the past. At the time, it was Laurence Boccolini who hosted the show. Unfortunately, he had not managed to climb onto the famous red armchair. But this failure allowed him to come back stronger, as we can currently see by seeing his performances on the second channel. How far will Doan go?
