We thus directed our research towards this princely place where we sought help from Inspector Paoli, who will be featured tonight on TF1 in the first episode of “Brigade Navarro.”
N-P: Inspector Paoli, good morning. We are investigating a certain Anthony Dupray who allegedly impersonated a police officer.
Anthony Dupray: We’re going to try to find him, I’m here for that.
N-P: You know him, I suppose.
A.D.: I have indeed heard of him. It rings a bell.
N-P: What do you think of his character?
A.D.: He’s a pretty nice guy. He’s not much of a morning person.
N-P: How does he behave with others?
A.D.: Pretty well.
N-P: Does he have any flaws?
A.D.: I think he’s a perfectionist. It’s a quality but also a flaw when it becomes excessive.
N-P: Any qualities?
A.D.: He’s cool, zen. He loves the easy life.
He’s an actor, right? Or is he a fake police investigator?
N-P: He’s a fake police investigator.
A.D.: Oh, that’s serious then.
N-P: Especially since this isn’t the first time he’s assumed a false identity, and I believe Anthony Dupray isn’t even his real first name.
A.D.: Oh, but you dig deep (smile)! You really go far in investigating.
N-P: He’s a recidivist.
A.D.: Today, that’s highly punishable by law. Be careful!
N-P: Moreover, I think he’s not going to stop here.
A.D.: Apparently, he’s set to play some roles. He even played a surfer, which obviously wasn’t easy as he had never done it before. He prepared himself. He rode some waves. It’s already challenging to get on the board and then to stay on, but it’s not easy. He takes risks. Anthony is a courageous guy. (Smile)
N-P: Do you know the starting point of this recidivism?
A.D.: I think he has always wanted to get noticed. The first time he arrived, he landed by parachute. He fell into a cafeteria. Already, you could sense a bit of a daredevil.
N-P: In fact, he likes doing stunts.
A.D.: Yes, he trains for them. I was told he trains about 1 to 2 hours every morning. He’s a sporty person and that’s a quality: Discipline and respect.
N-P: Do you think he will reoffend?
A.D.: Yes, yes. I’ve heard he’s going to assume another person’s identity very soon, and that’s why he’s physically training to gain weight and change appearance for a role that might be quite violent. He’s preparing.
N-P: He also works a lot with Inspector Boldec.
A.D.: Oh my, I can really talk about him. He too, has taken another identity. That’s a big problem. Boldec is quite a character. Dangerous. Keep away, I’m telling you. It’s concerning.
N-P: And Filip?
A.D.: He’s a nice guy. He’s okay.
N-P: Not like Boldec?
A.D.: Oh no, Boldec complains all the time, he’s never satisfied.
N-P: Yet he gets along well with Investigator Paoli.
A.D.: It’s like a cat and dog relationship. They hate each other but they love each other too.
