Research Unit: The Unexpected Return Of The Series On Tf1

While TF1 had announced the end of the series "Section de recherches" in 2022, the network has ultimately decided to revive this police drama by airing a double episode on Thursday, February 1st. Here are 3 good reasons to watch this special double episode.

This episode marks the return of the series on TF1.

Good news for fans of this police series: "Section de recherches" is making a comeback on TF1 on Thursday, February 1st, 2024, almost two years after its finale! The series, led by Xavier Deluc, Fabienne Carat, Franck Sémonin, and Élise Tielrooy, bid farewell in April 2022 after fifteen years of broadcasting on the channel.

However, barely a year later, the network reconsidered and ordered two new episodes. The crime series is therefore making a big return this Thursday evening with a double episode titled "Mortelle randonnée."

Viewers will be delighted to see the actors who are the pillars of this fiction. Xavier Deluc has played Martin Bernier since the first season aired in 2006, Franck Sémonin joined the cast in season 8, Élise Tielrooy in season 12, and Fabienne Carat in season 14.

For this special double episode event, the cast is rounded out by Olivier Sitruk in the role of the refuge owner, Élodie Varlet from "Plus belle la vie" as his partner Sophie, and also Isabelle Vitari, well known to viewers for her role as Karine Becker in the series "Nos chers voisins" on TF1.

It was filmed in beautiful landscapes.

This special double episode features stunning natural scenery. It was indeed filmed on the island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean.

For this new episode of Section de recherches, the writers have imagined that Bernier (Xavier Deluc), Ariel (Élise Tielrooy), Lucas (Franck Sémonin), and Jeanne (Fabienne Carat) go hiking on the island of Réunion.

The newly retired police commander dreams of having a good time with his partner and friends. But of course, their trek does not go at all as planned!

He offers an entertaining investigation.

Gone for a week of trekking in Reunion, Bernier must return to service with his former colleagues when one of the members of their hiking group is the victim of a murder. From the first morning, a hiker is found hanging from a tree. All the people present in the shelter where Bernier and his friends spent the night are potential suspects.

This double episode filmed in an exotic setting offers a clever mix of humor and action scenes. In short, it brings together all the ingredients to provide viewers with excellent entertainment. Fans of this series will certainly not hide their enjoyment!

To conclude this article with another piece of good news, a double episode is currently being filmed in Martinique and will be titled "The Twelfth Passenger". Already last April, the TF1 channel had specified that it did not rule out shooting other new episodes and has kept its promise.
