On the 200th anniversary of Napoleon s death, French TV channels are dedicating their airtime to screen documentaries, programs and special evenings that explore unknown, and sometimes dark sides, of the late emperor s life.
On April 13, France 2 TV inaugurated its commemoration of Napoleon s death with a special episode of the Laissez-vous Guider program with Stéphane Bern and Lorànt Deutsch, who took the audience on a journey following the steps of Napoleon from Paris to the Aix Island.
