For the past 40 years, NRK veterans Christian Borch (79), Ole Torp (71) and Hans-Wilhelm Steinfeld (72) have been rolling in appearing in front of the state channel’s camera.
From 2014 until 2021, however, one by one fell from the TV screen, and today they are enjoying retirement – at least on paper.
– I never said that
In an interview with Dagens Næringsliv, the journalists come out hard against the so-called tabloid and you journalism, and at the same time make spicy revelations from their long careers.
– Juice soup made from celebrity fluff
The famous NRK trio agree on a lot – but some apparently have stronger opinions about certain things than others. Borch explains to Dagens Næringsliv that he has hardly watched Dagsrevyen since he left.
– They are no longer significant. I didn’t want to sit and get annoyed that others did stupid things that I hadn’t done myself, he says.

Earlier this year, Borch’s autobiography “Behind the Scenes: Memories of a Life at the Sharp End of Journalism” hit store shelves.
In the book, he claims that NRK had “more or less unconsciously succumbed to commercial trend thinking and slipped sideways into a brain-dead market psychosis”, according to the newspaper.
Make a comeback
In the above interview, he elaborates on what makes him so irritated. Borch believes that the homepage of the state channel has become a “juice soup of celebrity fluff and you-journalism”.
Women’s briefs and proposal letters
Borch, Torp and Steinfeld can’t escape the fact that – for many Norwegians – they are celebrities themselves.

While Steinfeld, for his part, claims that he has received “a lot” of attention over time, Borch still has proof of this.
– So I have a drawer with proposal letters and pictures of ladies with and without clothes and things, he says.
Borch, on the other hand, is not alone in having received “gifts” from unknown women. Torp says that he once received a pair of women’s panties.
– I perceived it as special, says Torp.
