They are ready to do anything to realize their dream: to participate in the Beijing Express adventure show. The application deadline for the next season of the show was announced for May 31, 2023, but the site finally closed 15 days earlier than expected. “We feel like we are experiencing an injustice”, say the two young women, disappointed at not having been able to send their video already ready for casting.
Determined to try their luck on this show where candidates have to race through different countries without money, Fanny and Linda have a crazy idea. Hitchhiking to Paris from Finistère, as the pairs do on the show. Once the 500 km traveled in regarding ten hours, and the 9 cars necessary to go to the capital, they intend to file their file in person, at the production box.
Saved by a restorer
But not everything went as planned for the two adventurers. Corks, bad addresses… It is not at the headquarters of M6 that applications must be submitted but to the production box. Except that the offices are already closed when they get there. Linda and Fanny do not give up and the savior is in the local restaurant where they sit down to rest.
“I met them in my restaurant,” says Mayer, a cook in Boulogne-Billancourt. “They were desperate not to have been able to file their case, so I went back for her the next morning”. But despite the efforts and his precious help, the casting is definitively closed for this year. Thierry Guillaume, the producer of the show, nevertheless advised them to apply for the following season, by the classic route. It remains to be seen whether “intrepid Breton mothers” will succeed in passing the casting stage.
