Michel Drucker interviewed Frida in Zermatt. The questions were asked in French but she answered in English. Alain Boublil joined Frida briefly to answer some questions. Frida talked quite fondly and openly about Abba, reminisced on her divorce from Benny, how her life changed to the person she is now, plus was not afraid to talk about her feelings of loss as a mother and a wife.
They taped two versions of the show, one shorter than the other; the shorter one was the international version that was exclusively dedicated to ABBA (except for the short part about Alain Boublil's new musical) which also included singer Sylvie Vartan's brief guest on the show and a performance by the Mamma Mia! ensemble.
