France 3 has scheduled a two-episode “Alexandra Ehle” block for Tuesday, May 26, beginning at 21:10, according to broadcaster and TV-listings pages published or indexed this weekend. The crime series stars Julie Depardieu as the Bordeaux medical examiner Alexandra Ehle, with Bernard Yerlès among the recurring cast. France.tv, the public broadcaster’s streaming platform, also shows direct pages for the two episodes slated for that night. Social posts on Sunday drew attention to the schedule and pointed viewers toward replay options. ### Which “Alexandra Ehle” episodes are on France 3 on May 26? Tuesday, May 26 is listed as a double bill. A TV schedule item published Sunday by Coulisses TV said France 3 would air “Message pour l’éternité” at 21:10, followed by “La peste” at 22:45. France.tv carries matching episode pages. The platform says “Message pour l’éternité,” identified as season 5, episode 1, begins at 21:10 on May 26, while “La peste,” identified as season 2, episode 2, begins at 22:40. The small difference in listed end-start timing reflects separate schedule and platform entries, but both sources show the same Tuesday-night lineup.

France.tv describes “Alexandra Ehle” as a French crime series centered on a singular forensic doctor who seeks to restore both the physical and “human” integrity of the dead while helping bring justice. The series page names Julie Depardieu, Bernard Yerlès, Xavier Guelfi, Sara Martins and Sophie Le Tellier among the cast. (france.tv) The show is set in Bordeaux. Coulisses TV’s May 26 listing likewise describes Alexandra Ehle as a médecin légiste at the city’s forensic institute and frames the evening as a chance to “voir ou revoir” two investigations, signaling a rerun night rather than a new episode launch. (france.tv) ### What happens in the first episode, “Message pour l’éternité”? At 21:10, “Message pour l’éternité” opens with the discovery of an unregistered mummy in the reserves of Bordeaux’s archaeological museum, according to France.tv and the TV listing. The victim is identified as François Von Kert, an archaeologist and president of the University of Letters of Bordeaux who had been missing for 70 days.

The France.tv page lists the episode as a 2023 production and says it remains available until June 9, 2026. (coulisses-tv.fr) ### What is the second episode, “La peste,” about? At 22:40 or 22:45, depending on the listing source, France 3 moves to “La peste.” France.tv says the episode begins with a man found dead on a boat moored in Bordeaux’s marina, with pustules and blackened extremities indicating plague. (france.tv) The episode then places members of the victim’s family in quarantine on their wine estate, according to France.tv and Coulisses TV. Both summaries say Alexandra Ehle comes to believe the infection was not accidental and that someone close to the victim inoculated him with the bacillus.

The series landing page offers seasons 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6, while the individual episode pages show the scheduled start times for Tuesday night. On Sunday, May 24, social-media posts flagged the May 26 France 3 airing and linked viewers to discussion and replay-oriented coverage. (coulisses-tv.fr) The next concrete step is the May 26 prime-time broadcast on France 3, starting with “Message pour l’éternité” at 21:10, followed by “La peste” later that evening. (france.tv)
