THE TWELVE BLOWS OF NOON. After two weeks spent in the 12 noon shots on TF1, Cécile is gradually discovering new clues about the mysterious star.
[Mis à jour le 17 août 2022 à 11h19] Brittany continues to win in the 12 noon shots with Cécile who celebrated her 15th participation this Tuesday on TF1. The Breton midday master won without too much difficulty against the other candidates who challenged her to a duel. Arriving with €30,000 in potential winnings at the masterstroke stage, Cécile however stumbled on two issues. She still wins €300 to be shared with a viewer. His personal kitty increases by €150 and reaches the sum of €33,450. The mysterious star, on the other hand, reveals several clues at this point: a garden setting surrounded by trees, a ping pong table, coffee cups, a red scooter and a straw hat. Faced with the enigma of the midday star, Cécile proposed the name of George Clooney but without success.
It was on Tuesday July 26 that Yaël found the last mysterious star of the 12 strokes of noon. The champion of the time had then revealed only three clues: an airliner, a desert landscape and a red umbrella. There were still many boxes to reveal in the puzzle, but that didn’t stop him from finding the solution. The stretcher-bearer from Orne proposed the name of Bérénice Bejo before explaining his theory. The desert is none other than Patagonia (Bérénice Bejo was born in Argentina), the red umbrella is a reference to musicals (she wanted to become an actress by watching this kind of film) and finally the plane is a reference to a film in which she played a flight attendant (unless it’s just a reference to one of her first films called Comme un avion). In doing so, Yaël won more than €59,000 in her personal kitty, which reached the sum of €129,459. Unfortunately, Yaël was eliminated from the 12 noon shots the next day.
