Du restaurant
With more than 780,000 establishments, France has the largest number of restaurants per capita in the world. This is a real passion, which has grown over the centuries. Surrounded by two chefs - Grégory Cuilleron and Nathalie Nguyen - Stéphane Bern invites you to go back in time to discover the birth and transformation of the restaurant. A journey through time in costumes and in rigorously reconstructed period settings. This fabulous story begins in the Middle Ages, with the appearance of inns, and continues during the French Revolution, when the first modern restaurants developed.
De la maison
In the form of a pavilion or an apartment, the house is the project of a lifetime for many French people . The majority of our fellow citizens spend weekends tinkering or gardening to make their homes. This house, a "family" refuge, the plan of which seems immutable to us - with its individual bedrooms, kitchen, living room, dining room and bathroom - was built gradually in our past. Stéphane Bern therefore offers viewers a unique experience : literally going back in time, to discover concretely, during several chapters of our history, the transformation of our habitat and our way of living "at home". A journey through time in costumes and in rigorously reconstructed period settings.
Stéphane Bern has chosen to take on this trip two guests very concerned by this theme of the house: the host Églantine Éméyé, passionate about flea markets (author of a remarkable book on this theme) and the young decorator Thomas Lecointe, decoration columnist and DIY expert.
De l'hygiène et de la beauté
Cleanliness has not always had the same meaning as it does today. At the court of Versailles, under Louis XIV, appearances triumphed with perfume, make-up and wigs, including for men. It was not until the end of the 19th century and the progress of science that hygiene, in its current meaning, gradually entered the daily life of the French, with the appearance of bathrooms. Stéphane Bern has chosen to take on this trip two young guests specializing in the issue: the star of social networks Emmy Make Up and the sports coach and model Laurent Maistret.
À l'école
Stéphane Bern offers an insight into the history of the school, from the Middle Ages to the 1950s. Contrary to popular belief, the school was not invented by "that sacred Charlemagne". From hopscotch to the very first textbooks, its existence spans several centuries. Thanks to an immersion in costumes, in carefully reconstructed sets, Stéphane Bern lifts the veil on the reality of these establishments of yesteryear, in the company of the comedian Jarry Angelina, who represented France at the Eurovision Junior 2018, journalist and host Jamy Gourmaud and actress Charlotte de Turckheim.
