La Légende des Chevaliers aux 108 Etoiles - Visitez l'album photo de la série Découvrez le "roman-photo" espagnol La Frontera Azul La série La Légende des chevaliers aux 108 étoiles est devenue elle-même une sorte de légende pour les téléphiles. Diffusée en 1977 sur TF1 dans le créneau du samedi soir à 21 h 30 (qui accueillerait bien des séries restées célèbres, comme Dallas, Starsky et Hutch, Serpico…), elle fut rediffusée ensuite en 1982 dans le cadre de l’émission Féminin Présent animée par Evelyne Pagès puis Soizic Corne (occupant toute l’après-midi du mardi, l’émission hébergeait une série d’une heure diffusée vers 14 h 05). La chaîne française diffusa dix épisodes, mais la série complète en compte vingt-six, répartis en deux saisons de treize. L’adaptation anglaise a elle-même sa petite histoire, qu’il est difficile de vérifier. La version anglaise de la série propose en tout cas un découpage en deux saisons de 13 épisodes qui ne correspond à aucune réalité de diffusion. Thierry LE PEUT Notes 1. 2. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
