Commenting, Nonce Paolini, Chairman of the TF1 group, said: “Recognition from TV viewers is essential for TF1, especially in a context of expanding offers and an increasing number of channels. That recognition rewards the fantastic work put in by the channel teams and news teams, who work passionately to entertain and inform French viewers with an unwavering focus on quality. These distinctions also reward the diversity of our programmes, as well as our ability to surprise, attract and move a very wide audience. TF1 remains the standard-setting family channel with broad appeal, open to all, and with which each viewer can identify. The prizes awarded to us at the 2015 TV Notes serve to strengthen our ambition in this respect.”
