Audiences on Thursday, August 31, 2023 for programs broadcast in the first part of the evening.
This Thursday, “The Great Chessboard”usually on France 3, switched exceptionally to France 2 for a program devoted to Armenia, organized in partnership with Le Figaro Magazine. Guests linked by blood or feelings to this country (Simon Abkarian, Sylvain Tesson, Patrick Bruel…) hailed or sang the fighting spirit of a nation bruised in the past, today threatened by Turkey and Azerbaijan.

Hosted by Claire Chazal and André Manoukian from the Royal Opera of Versailles, the program attracted 1.35 million viewers, or 7.9% of the public. The previous “Grand Échiquier”, broadcast in June this time on France 3, only brought together 728,000 people. Far from the two million curious people that Anne-Sophie Lapix managed to bring together in 2018 on France 2, when he took over Jacques Chancel’s cult show.
Success for “Trains like no other”
This score places France 2 in fifth place in the hearings, this Thursday evening. First place is held by M6, which was broadcasting free-to-air for the first time cruella, a film released in 2021 starring Emma Stone. 2.55 million viewers, or 15.8% of the public, viewed it. TF1, in second position, replayed the American blockbuster Thor: Ragnarok (2017), starring Chris Hemsworth and Benedict Cumberbatch. 2.12 million French people attended.

The program achieved the good score of 2.09 million viewers, or 11.0% of the public, who headed to southern Argentina. Philippe Gougler’s show is now a meeting place for viewers. Last week’s issue had 1.50 million viewers in Serbia.
