Nice move for M6. On the sidelines of MIPTV, the international market for television programs whose 2023 edition ended last week in Cannes, the channel has acquired the rights to a new Belgian format, Destination X. Even if the title is ambiguous, it is indeed an adventure game successfully broadcast since the beginning of the year on the Belgian channel VTM under the title Destination X. At our neighbors, the broadcast will end this Saturday, April 29, 2023. “It’s a real phenomenon, both on the air and digitally, with up to 42% market share on the commercial target.“, greets the director general of programs of M6, Guillaume Charles, in The Parisianthe daily that revealed the information.
Destination X : ten participants on their way to the unknown in the new M6 game
The concept is different from that of Beijing Express : ten participants who don’t know each other board a bus for a road trip through Europe. But the production is careful not to tell them the destination, it is up to them to guess where they are at any time. behind his screen, the viewer is placed in the same situation. “Everything is done so that their senses do not allow them to get there“, indicates the Belgian program. To do this, the team competes in ingenuity, even going so far as to make participants believe that they are in the open sea while their bus is on a platform controlled by a crane!

According to our information, the channel has not yet chosen the host or hostess who will carry this new program expected in the coming months. “We are not especially in an emergency to put on the air“, emphasizes Guillaume Charles in The Parisian.
