C à vous (French: [se a vu]) is a French TV show hosted by Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine that has been broadcast on the channel France 5 since 7 September 2009. The name is a pun on the French expression "C'est à vous" (in English, roughly, "The floor is yours"). The show is shot in an informal format in a Parisian loft. Lemoine and her columnists discuss current affairs with guest(s) of the day around a table, while a chef (occasionally a famous chef) prepares a dish for them to enjoy.[1] The show airs Monday to Friday at 7 p.m.[2]

History

edit

The TV show C à vous was created in September 2009 and was presented by Alessandra Sublet until June 2013.[3]

A new segment called C à vous la suite (C à vous Continued), the next part of the show, has been broadcast since August 2010. This segment lasts around 12 minutes and introduces a dessert guest, who joins the dinner guest(s). It usually ends with a live song. From August 2010 to May 2013, it was broadcast at 8.25 p.m. Since June 2013, it has been broadcast at 8 p.m. after the main show, following a short advertising break.[4]

Since September 2010 a selection of the best moments chosen from that week's shows has been broadcast every Saturday. It is called, C à vous, le meilleur (The best of C à vous). The scheduling of this Saturday show has changed several times. It was broadcast at 12.30 p.m. from September 2010 then at 5.55 p.m. from September 2011, at 7 p.m. from September 2013, then back at 12.30 p.m. and finally at 1 p.m. in 2014.

C à vous celebrated its 500th show in February 2012. For this occasion the guests of honor were Bruce Toussaint and Jean-Pierre Pernaut, two ex-bosses of Alessandra Sublet, who by that time was the presenter of the show.[5] This special show was watched by 1.1 million viewers and produced 5.1% viewer share.[6]

Anne-Sophie Lapix hosted the show from 2013 to 2017 and Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine, assisted by Patrick Cohen since then.
