This Saturday, five of the main protagonists, Alexandre Brasseur, Franck Monsigny, Arnaud Henriet, Alice Varela and Charlotte Gaccio, left the city of Sète, where the series is filmed, to meet the lucky Belgian winners of a competition organized by RTBF and Auvio. The last hour interfered in the first autograph session which took place in Charleroi in the morning. A moment out of time when we measured the true effect tomorrow belongs to us on Belgian viewers.

On the Place de Digue, a wave of fans swept over Médiasambre. In the lead, Christelle, Audrey, Faustine and Anaïs, series enthusiasts. “We came from Tournai just to meet them”explains one of them. “We don’t yet know what we will say to them once in front of them. We will appeal to our spontaneity.”

“You don’t have extra tickets?“, then launches a fan who is unfortunately not one of the winners of the contest. The latter came especially from Chapelle-Lez-Herlaimont to try her luck. In vain… It will be for next time, probably in Sète where she goes every year to see the actors in their element.

Shortly before 11 a.m. the doors open. Fans are closer to their favorite comedians. “What to do now?” asks, impressed and a little confused, the first to go to meet them. “Put a little note in the hat!” responds with humor Arnaud Henriet, interpreter of Sylvain Moreno. “And can I have your 06?” then retorts the viewer.
