According to the presenter, Nicolette would also find that ‘very cool’. “It is my baby, I still think it is a fantastic program and I have also left my fingerprints on it Expedition Robinson. Of course I would be open to it if I could return.”
Daily program
Early next year, Rooijakkers will make a current affairs and opinion program for SBS6 together with Malou Petter. “On TV people are shooting from the hip by people who do not necessarily know the facts, but can formulate their opinions well. Bee News of the day we are going to do it differently.”
The program will be shown daily between 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM. “That timing is definitely a risk, but I believe in the strength behind it. I have no illusions that we have had the wind at our backs from day one. But we are going to try to create something beautiful.”
