Fans will have to be patient to discover the semi-final of season 18 of
“Beijing Express”
. M6 has, in fact, chosen to deprogram its adventure game for two consecutive weeks.
During the last episode, broadcast on Thursday April 4, Ryad and Louison left the program. The elimination of the pair of unknowns, facing Jessica and Patricia, the Corsican colleagues, greatly saddened their many fans. From now on, there are three duos left in the show: the Corsicans, Flavie and Jérémy, the little Swiss and Romain and Laura, the hairdresser and his client. But, while the competition was to continue this Thursday, April 11 with the broadcast of the semi-final, M6 preferred to postpone its game in order to offer a football match. La Six thus broadcasts the quarter-final first leg of the Europa League between Benfica Lisbon and Olympique Marseille. Xavier Domergue and Jean-Marc Ferreri will comment on this duel live from 8:50 p.m. The Marseillais, led by Jean-Louis Gasset, will do everything to beat the Portuguese at home in the Estadio da Luz.
Two weeks of waiting before the semi-final
The following week, on Thursday April 18, M6 will not broadcast “Pékin Express” either but will offer the quarter-final second leg of the Europa League during which Olympique de Marseille will host Benfica Lisbon in its lair at the Vélodrome. A summit meeting which should delight football aficionados.
Fans of the adventure game will find Stéphane Rotenberg and the three teams still in the competition on Thursday April 25. In this penultimate stage, the candidates will compete in three races: a trek in the middle of the mountains, a mission on the water and an archery event. Challenges that will take place in North Vietnam and will require endurance, patience and precision. At the end of each race, the pair arriving last will draw a black envelope. At the end of the stage, two pairs will advance to the final.
