The controversy over the departures of Bertrand Renard and Arielle Boulin-Prat, the two pillars of the game show “Numbers and letters”, continues to swell. This Friday morning, on Virgin Radio, Arielle Boulin-Prat returned to this eviction to everyone’s surprise. “We were treated with great contempt. For the chain, we are nothing. You should know that we had no phone call from anyone“, she explains before returning to the way in which France Televisions ejected the two pillars. “We were fired in video, in ten minutes. That’s the reality. It’s been 36 years since I was at ‘Numbers and Letters‘”.
The latter also indicated the date of the last show where we can still see her with her sidekick Bertrand Renard. Her big regret: she was unable to say goodbye to the viewers. “Our last show, which will air on September 11, was recorded in May. In May, there was absolutely no question of anything. We mightn’t even say goodbye to the viewers. It’s awful“, concluded Arielle Boulin-Prat.
A former candidate, Stéphane Crosnier, and a school teacher, Blandine Maire, will replace Bertrand Renard and Arielle Boulin-Prat as arbiters of “Numbers and Letters” When the dismissal of the two pillars of the game was announced, Bertrand Renard and Arielle Boulin-Prat had denounced a “forced and forced” departure. The main host of the game broadcast on France 3, Laurent Romejko, will continue to occupy the role he has held since 1992. This season, however, the game will no longer be broadcast daily but only at weekends.
