A new issue of “Complément d’investigation” will be devoted to Cyril Hanouna this Thursday, November 30 on France 2. The investigation will focus on the behavior of the host behind the scenes.
Cyril Hanouna will be the subject of a number of Further investigation particularly expected. The investigative program will focus on the figure of the C8 host in “Cyril Hanouna, the new godfather of the PAF”, broadcast this Thursday evening on France 2 at 10:55 p.m.
This number of Further investigation unveiled its trailer this Monday, November 27, 2023, and will focus on telling the behavior of the “jester who became king”, the “troublemaker courted by billionaires”. The show will thus endeavor to paint a portrait of “this new cathode sovereign”, to tell the behind-the-scenes story of Do not touch My TV but also his relationship with Vincent Bolloré, owners of several media and in particular the group’s channels Canal++, like C8.
“In the small world of television, many are hesitant to confide in the new “godfather” of the PAF, capable of making and unmaking careers, or of distributing pressure and threats,” it is also indicated in the press release announcing the show, which will look back on “his career, his successes, his failures, his networks, his fortune estimated at 85 million euros, you will know everything about this little guy from 9-3 who took his time to conquer the small screen.”
A difficult show to put together
This show has been in preparation for several months, but it was announced on the TV program at the last minute by the France Télévision teams. At issue: the journalists in charge of this investigation say they encountered numerous difficulties during the preparation of this issue. Tristan Waleckx, presenter of the show, notably spoke of “unprecedented media pressure”.
The journalist Virginie Vilar says that it was the “most complicated investigation of all [sa] career”. Several dozen people refused to grant him interviews, worried about suffering reprisals, while others spread “rumors and false leads”. “A source asked us for mafia-style precautions, with protection, encrypted messaging, secret location,” she explains on Télérama.
Cyril Hanouna’s reaction
But what does the main person concerned, Cyril Hanouna, think? On May 22, the host of Do not touch My TV had declared that “this will be the end of ‘Further Investigation’ because I’m going to stick my nose in and you know that when I stick my nose somewhere, generally, I often blow things up.”
This Monday, November 27, when the trailer for this issue of Further investigationthe host quipped on air: “For the moment, I love it! I just hope that we will finish ahead of TF1 in terms of audiences, for me it’s my show. […] Now I’m very happy, I’ve only seen photos of people I liked, I just hope there won’t be my mother’s testimony.” Let’s see now if this reaction will change after the broadcast of the show, Thursday in the second part of the evening.
