Midi-Première = Midi-First
Apparently Midi-Première was always broadcast live from a different French city every day and was a variety show around 26 minutes long.
ABBA performed I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do on this programme which was broadcast from the newly-built and inaugurated Auxerre Market (ABBA performance probably not recorded there but back in Paris).
The edition on 23 April 1975 was broadcast from Auxerre Market and a short report about the market was filmed for the programme and that's the only part of this programme left in the archives. The ABBA appearance does not exist in the French TV archives.
* The filming date is according to ABBA - The Book by Jean-Marie Potiez (p.112). ABBA were only in Paris for 2-3 days between the dates of 16-20 April 1975.
