Monsieur X: The incredible story of the most audacious Monsieur X: The incredible story of the most audacious

He remained one step ahead of the authorities until finally the government criminalised his activities, driving him into the arms of the underworld. After his coronation in 1814, the title passed to Charles Philippe, Count of Artois, his younger brother.From 1643 to 1660, while both princes were alive, Philippe was commonly known as le Petit Monsieur, while Gaston, his uncle, was known as le Grand Monsieur. De 1997 à 2015, cette voix mythique de l'antenne a été aux manettes de l'émission "Rendez-vous avec X" qui dévoilait les coulisses d'affaires diplomatiques ou d'espionnage, sensibles ou secrètes. Une phrase que tous les auditeurs de "Rendez-vous avec X" connaissent bien, et qui est le fil rouge des émissions. In modern French, monsieur (plural messieurs) is used as a courtesy title of respect, an equivalent of English " mister" or "sir".

De l'assassinat de Martin Luther King au trésor de Rennes-le-Château, des gangs marseillais au masque de fer israélien : 14 émissions à réécouter, découvrir ou partager.

The council’s record says its outreach service attempted to locate Mr X on March 21 but he was not parked on the road where he said he had been sleeping and he needed to contact the Housing Options Service in core hours. Retour sur les soupçons autour d'un agent communiste potentiellement double qui, en 1940, a été arrêté par la Gestapo de Strasbourg et serait devenu un espion retourné par les Nazis pour compromettre la Résistance communiste dans la Zone sud.Mr X told the council he had been sleeping in his car for three months and that his 16-year-old son sometimes had to sleep in the car with him. They said Mr X was now sleeping in his car and that his children were staying with numerous family members. Mr X said he took medication for depression and pain in his back and legs and that his eldest son also had health problems. A man left homeless was forced to sleep in a car for almost a year with his 16-year-old son after Liverpool Council failed to deal with their housing issue.
