Les 100 tours de Centour

Les 100 tours de Centour was a 1971–1972 French language children's television show made in Quebec by Radio-Québec.

The show's main purpose was language acquisition, which was conveyed by the way Verbo would do magic: when he needed to perform a trick, he would ask his talisman (named "Memo") for a formula (always in the form of "it is a [subject], it is an [object], it is the [subject] of the [object]".)

Centour on his part would perform magic by reciting similar formulas while shaking his magic wristband (which looked like a gaudy wristwatch).

Verbo's constant companion was Picot Cotton, a young human male whose family was often the target of Centour's tricks.
