Inevitably, a game like this was impossible to miss. Based on data from Médiamétrie, France 2 announced this Sunday morning that 7.2 million viewers had watched Saturday the XV of France dismember his English counterpart at Twickenham (10-53). That is 46.2% audience share for this meeting, which kicked off at 17:45 p.m. A peak of 9.2 million was even noted.

This is the best score of the public channel since the beginning of the Six Nations Tournament, even if the historical record was not surpassed. This England - France does not reach the France - England (25-13) on March 19, 2022, which had allowed the Blues to win their first Grand Slam after 12 years of scarcity.

France - England 2022 still ahead

8.95 million people had followed on France 2 this duel played at the Stade de France, with a peak at 10.4 million. But this meeting had been broadcast on a Saturday at 21 p.m., perhaps a better time to be in front of the TV than 17:45 p.m.
