History
On 9 May 2016, Yann Barthès announced that he was leaving Canal+'s Le Petit Journal, a programme which he had presented since it began in 2004.[2] On the same day the TF1 Group announced that it had recruited Barthès to present two new programmes: a daily show on its channel TMC and a weekly show on the TF1 channel.[3] Canal+ later announced that Barthès would be replaced as presenter of Le Petit Journal by Cyrille Eldin.[4]
The first episode of Quotidien, broadcast 12 September 2016, featured a guest appearance by the singer Vanessa Paradis who opened the series.[5] It also featured an interview with the Socialist Party politician and former Minister of Justice Christiane Taubira, an appearance by the actor Valérie Lemercier, and a live performance by the band La Femme.[5] The show was watched by 1.3 million viewers, representing 6.3% of the total audience.[6]
