He became champion of the 12 noon shots last week and celebrated his fourth participation in the game of Jean-Luc Reichmann this Sunday. He won once morest his opponents without too many problems and even pulled off a superb masterstroke worth €10,000. The kitty shared between the midday master and a viewer is now €21,000! The mysterious star is only five spaces long and now reveals a new clue: a bathtub which is added to the previous clues (a mountainous landscape, an apple, a basket, a wood chisel, a plane and a sculpture ). Faced with the mysterious star, Laurent proposed the name of actor Fabrice Eboué but without success. If all goes well, he might discover the solution at the beginning of the week!
