Thomas Vanderveken brings TV legend Stephen Fry to his show: “Doesn’t cost more than some video clips” | Showbiz

A little stunt. For example, you can safely call the hundredth guest in ‘Only Elvis will survive’. Because no matter how beautiful names like Tommy Wieringa, Tom Barman, Eva Van Braeckel, Michaël Borremans or Anna Teresa De Keersmaeker also adorn the poster of the new season, headliner is without a doubt Stephen Fry. The actor, author and presenter will be featured in the very last – the hundredth too – episode of the season.

“All in all, it was not very difficult to convince him,” says Thomas Vanderveken. “As is the case, we contacted his management. They warned us that Fry doesn’t do that many programs anymore. But we sent in a subtitled episode to convince him and not much later he agreed. It was our first party when we saw that he had downloaded the wetransfer file with the episode, but when we heard that he was going to do it, it was a bit unreal. A while later I traveled to London to meet him. ”
