Closing of C8: suspense and final curtain for Cyril Hanouna
Launched on March 31, 2005, C8 and NRJ 12 are closing their doors this Friday at 11:59 p.m. La Huit has made a big deal of the farewell of its star presenter: on air this Thursday for a final evening of "Touche pas à mon poste" live, he promised to provide clarification on his television future.
By Benoît DaragonSoon, all this will be nothing more than old memories, carefully archived by the INA (National Audiovisual Institute). Like this solemn minute of farewell that preceded the closing of La Cinq by Marie-Laure Augry, Jean-Claude Bourret and Patrice Duhamel. It is the last notable channel to have definitively lowered the curtain on Sunday April 12, 1992.
In 33 years, the French audiovisual landscape has seen dozens of births but few deaths. This Friday at 11:59 p.m., C8 and NRJ 12 will go off the air , one month before their 20th anniversary, to make way in a few months for Ouest-France TV and T18, the channel of Daniel Kretinsky (the Czech businessman who already owns the magazines "Elle", "Télé 7 Jours", "Marianne", from the publishing giant Editis and holds a stake in the Casino group). This is what Arcom has decided, criticizing the former for the total absence of new programs and its tap of reruns and the latter for the too many slip-ups in " Touche pas à mon poste " and the lack of reaction from the management of the Canal + group despite 35 fines or reminders to order against its small channel.
