In May 1974, Valéry Giscard d'Estaing became President of the Republic and wanted to bring about a new era of modernity. One of his first decisions was to break up the ORTF with the creation of three new television channels: TF1, Antenne 2 and FR3. Three new public channels but autonomous and competing. It is a race for the audience which is engaged then, and from now on the channels will make the war! This competition will give birth to a real golden age for television programs, with variety shows in the forefront. The stars of the song are going to invade the living rooms of the French for their biggest pleasure. This unedited documentary tells the story of the metamorphosis of this television of the early 1970s, between freedom of tone, scandals, political intrigues and programs that have become mythical.

Estamos en el año 50 A.C. Toda la Galia está ocupada por los romanos… ¿Toda? ¡No! Una aldea poblada por irreductibles galos resiste todavía y detienen siempre al invasor. Exasperado por la situación, Julio César decide cambiar de táctica: como sus ejércitos han sido incapaces de imponerse por la fuerza, será la misma civilización romana la que se encargará de seducir a los bárbaros galos. Para ello, ordenará construir al lado de la aldea una lujosa residencia para romanos: “la residencia de los Dioses”. ¿Podrán nuestros amigos galos resistirse a la tentación del dinero y el confort romano? ¿La aldea se convertirá en una simple atracción turística? Astérix y Obélix tendrán que esforzarse para frustrar los planes del César.

La pequeña aldea gala va a recibir a Gudúrix, el sobrino del jefe, que ha encomendado a Astérix y Obélix la misión de convertirlo en un hombre hecho y derecho. Pero, a pesar de sus aires de superioridad, este adolescente de Lutecia no es más que un cobarde redomado, y el entrenamiento de choque al que lo someterán no parece que vaya a cambiar mucho las cosas. Mientras, los vikingos desembarcan en la Galia dispuestos a encontrar a un «campeón del miedo» que, tal y como les ha prometido su mago, sea capaz de enseñarles a volar, ya que, según él, «el miedo da alas». Cuando los vikingos raptan a Gudúrix se desata la catástrofe. Astérix y Obélix deberán hacer lo imposible por encontrarlo. Mientras se lanzan hacia el Gran Norte en busca de su joven protegido, éste, que se ha visto implicado contra su voluntad en un infame complot, conoce a la bella e intrépida Abba y se da cuenta de que el amor puede tener el mismo efecto que un puñetazo. ¡Todo un choque de culturas!

A small village lies peacefully nestled in the hills beneath the Provence sun... until the arrival of an odd group of vacationers. Who are these gorgeous young women from the big city strolling on the village square under the watchful eye of a chaperone as beautiful as she is authoritarian? Scandal arises when it’s learned these dreamy creatures are none other than the employees of a Marseille brothel come to enjoy the good clean air of the country. All hell breaks loose as the villagers take a stand for or against the presence of these "ladies of pleasure". The mayor is called on to relay women of the moral rules of the region to the women. But the fact remains, they can’t be forced to leave: while they have no intention of plying their trade, no law exists to bring their country retreat to a premature end.

Es ocioso pensar que los británicos se han hecho raros a través de los siglos. Ya eran realmente diferentes desde sus mismos orígenes. Como los británicos no pelean nunca durante las horas del té, o en los fines de semana, al César le resultó muy fácil derrotarles, a pesar de haberse presentado de una manera increíblemente desorganizada. Afortunadamente, ¡una aldea bretona aislada sigue resistiendo! Habiendo sido solicitada su ayuda, los romanos se apoderan de todos los barriles de vino que pueden encontrar en Londinium, incluido el de los Galos, demasiado ocupados en recuperarse de su primera comida inglesa. Cumpliendo órdenes, los legionarios comienzan a catar todos los barriles para averiguar cuál es el que contiene la pócima mágica. La ceremonia de la cata se convierte en un caos cuando los soldados se emborrachan bebiéndose hasta la última gota.
