didn't expect it.

To talk about the link that the actress maintains with the stage, Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine broadcast images from 1994 when Corinne Touzet played Célimène at the theater in the play
Le Misanthrope
alongside Roger Hanin.
The host then clarified that she had not, at the time, been back on stage for ten years.
“You couldn’t believe Roger Hanin was calling you
,” she announces.
Corinne Touzet, visibly moved, answers him.
“I’ll tell you the truth.
I had just given birth.
My baby was backstage, I was breastfeeding him during the show.
I absolutely did not expect to play again so quickly
,” she remembers.
Also read Corinne Touzet: “There is not a day when people do not talk to me about A Woman of Honor”
“Roger Hanin is a bit like my godfather for many things. “He is someone that I loved very much and who helped me a lot in difficult times and that was an immense happiness
,” she explains before being overcome by emotion and to have tears in my eyes.
“Sorry, because I wasn’t expecting that at all.
I never saw it again
,” speaking of the excerpts broadcast.
She then continued with this memory.
“
I had been doing television for almost ten years.
I believed in it more because, when you tour a lot, after a while you are forgotten in the theater and vice versa.
A role like that cannot be refused and it was the return to the stage for me after many years of absence.

In the rest of the show, Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine and her colleagues discussed
A Woman of Honor
, a TF1 series in which Corinne Touzet played the main role of gendarmette Isabelle Florent for twelve years (from 1996 to 2008) and enjoyed his greatest popular success.
“I wanted her to go dancing, to have a jules and nothing was possible”

The actress explained why she decided to leave this role.
“I was doing my stunts.
I learned boxing, I did rock climbing.
I did dangerous things on the water and in the air and that was my kif
, she explains.
And, three years before it stops, no more stunts, only interrogations.
It wasn't serious, but I was starting to say, “I miss it.”
It was a hit no matter what.
I wanted her to go dancing, to have a jules and nothing was possible.
In the 90s, everything was formatted.
It doesn't matter, we left as good friends.
