Christophe Dechavanne (born 23 January 1958) is a French television and radio host and program producer. He is the host of La Roue de la fortune. Dechavanne attended the Cours Hattemer, a private school. He started working as a radio host in the early 1980s. In 1985, he presented the daily talk-show C'est encore mieux l'après-midi on the state-owned television channel Antenne 2.

5.6At 55, Gabrielle, a brilliant scientist who has just been laid off, decides to take her life back into her own hands: she wants to have a child! Her mother, Rose—eccentric and kind-hearted—enthusiastically gets involved in helping her find the “perfect sperm.” That’s when Gaby meets Pierre, 58, a charming man in crisis, and Max, 26, his son, who’s searching for a father rather than a pal. Between desire, taboos, and pretenses, each finds themselves confronted with their own contradictions. A tender, sharp, and deeply human comedy. Because, in the end, everything is always possible.

This documentary evening recounts the breathless life journey and the twists and turns of Jean-Luc Delarue's career. Telling Jean-Luc Delarue is to tell several lives, the ambivalence of the character publicly strong, powerful and ambitious, but ultra-sensitive and tortured in the intimacy.

7.5Christophe Dechavanne recounts the provocative, scandalous, and irreverent television of the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s, which he experienced from the inside. From political programs to talk shows, entertainment to news programs, no genre escaped its sometimes provoked, often unexpected missteps, which amused, shocked, and even upset the public. Thanks to the testimonies of Léa Salamé, Michèle Cotta, Marie-Laure Augry, Enora Malagré, Patrice Carmouze, Alain Bougrain-Dubourg, Michel Field, Benjamin Castaldi, Eric Naulleau, and Marc-Olivier Fogiel, this documentary takes us behind the scenes of these cult sequences of French television.
