	Bernard Pivot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bernard Pivot (born 5 May 1935) is a journalist, interviewer and host of French cultural television programmes.
		Pivot was born in Lyon, the son of grocers.
		Pivot eventually heard about Lipton's questionnaire, and was surprised when he saw an episode: here was a humble Frenchman's programme inspiring an American show, and in such a way that the original programme was mentioned and honoured, instead of having its core ideas being just stolen.

	The Hindu : What does one go looking for in India?
		AS the main theme of Bernard Pivot's "Bouillon de culture", the most popular literary programme on television in France, the title was catchy.
		Whenever an author was invited, his or her publisher made sure that the books were readily available and expected the public to charge to bookshops the very next morning and buy the books of the writers impressed upon them the previous evening.
		So when Pivot suddenly decided to devote a whole evening to India, there was considerable surprise, especially as a country rarely figures as the main theme of the programme.

		In 1945, Charles was released, and the reunited family returned to Lyon.

		This unlikely-sounding event was the 4th in a series of annual National Spelling Championships, founded by Pivot himself, and which by now have become something of a national institution.
		Relying for their success on a strange mixture of nostalgia for the daily dictation of many people's childhood and the spirit of competition, these 'championships' have at least one thing in common with Olympic events: it is well-nigh impossible to achieve a perfect score.
		Even Bernard Pivot himself, when interviewed recently, declared that he wouldn't be against a certain amount of "weeding" in today's spelling.

	AATF French Review
		Taking Bernard Pivot's "Dictée" (no one had a perfect score and the French Review's own Colette Di{c}o was sent scurrying to determine whether or not the word "baba" was invariable!) was exciting and challenging, and the entertainment provided for us during his program, "les profs en fête," taped by TV5, was exceptional.
		Apparently, Bernard Pivot engaged the delegation from the Ministère des Affaires étrangères in debate to secure renewed support for the renowned journal, Le Français dans le monde (the first issue appeared in May 1961) soon to be on-line, but whose hard copy edition was to be dropped after the September-October 2000 issue.
		Though its editor, Jacques Pécheur, and his associate, Françoise Ploquin, have announced their retirement, the tentative plan is to have the FIPF take over the publication of the journal.

		Lipton always gives credit for this list to French talk show host Bernard Pivot, who hosted Apostrophes from 1975–1990 and Bouillon de Culture from 1990–2001; he often mentions that the list originally came from French novelist Marcel Proust (1871–1922).
		Proust did not actually create the questionnaire that frequently has his name attached, though he did famously answer two versions of it (once at age 13, and a second time at age 20), and thereby gave the lists a certain notoriety.
