Tour de France on French game show

[[email protected]]

I'm watching the French game show "Attention a la Marche". One of the
skill testing questions was: Which Spanish cyclist won the 2007 Tour
de France? Neither contestant had any idea. To understand the level
though, one of them responded to: Who was the French leader from 1940
to 1944? with Charles de Gaulle.

Well le grand Charlot did hang out in the York Minster Pub in Dean
Street Soho London and proclaimed himself leader of the Free French. The
posters & photos are still there, although Gaston the moustachioed
landlord is long gone.
