In this edition of MediaWatch we examine the public's reaction - both at home and overseas - to France's new prime minister. Manuel Valls appears to be popular with the ladies, adored by the Spanish, and the envy of Tony Blair's former spin doctor. We also look at a controversial petition to remove some romance from the city of love... and at other unusual stories making the headlines on April 1st!
