Where Matthijs van Nieuwkerk is challenged by almost everyone, Jan recently defended him. If he is a guest in the past month Beautiful lashes out at Suzanne Kunzeler, the head of BNN. “Look, we are so good, black blouse on, hair pulled up in a bun and see how humbly I apologize now.”
If he came yesterday op1 enters as Sinterklaas, falls out of his role almost immediately. “I was alone with colleagues from BNNVARA, but they didn’t let me in.” Then when Welmoed Sijtsma asks him if he was too white or too old, he is really on the right track. “No, nobody opens the door anymore. All black dresses and skirts above the knees. I didn’t like it one bit. I handed over a pallet of brooms, because their brooms were all worn out. Sweeping the street, sweeping the street. And mirrors. Let them take a look at you.” Presenter Jort Kelder can’t help but remark that St. Nicholas is “good at conveying politics”.
op1 visible every working day at 22:30 on NPO 1.
