Toine van Peperstraten about crying fragment: ‘VI exploited that professionally’ | TV

entertainment">Looking back on the TV moment, Van Peperstraten might have needed some guidance from the NOS, in the run-up to his farewell speech. „That someone from Studio Sport take you by the hand and say, ‘John, have you thought about it? Your last words, what are you going to do?’ That could have been done, for example. I wasn’t prepared for you to break,” the ESPN host told the podcast Broadcast.

entertainment">Van Peperstraten then left for Fox, where he was going to present a football program on Monday evening. This also meant that, at the time, Football International no longer allowed to use Eredivisie images. “In fact, we sat across from it, which was a very stupid choice. because WE had such a football-minded audience of its own. And they now had something in their hands that they could poke fun at Fox, and actually me. So it was actually a confluence of circumstances. (…) Yes, they just exploited it professionally. They know that things score.”

The VI viewer

entertainment">Only then did Van Peperstraten find out how great the influence that René van der Gijp and Johan Derksen in particular have on their audience. „You noticed that the WEviewer is someone who watches everything from the couch and lets his opinion be shaped by what is said on TV.” As a reporter for ESPN, Van Peperstraten often visits stadiums and he is also confronted with it. “Sometimes I just literally hear texts from Van der Gijp or Derksen about players. Then I think: what are you saying? You don’t know what you’re saying at all.”

entertainment">In retrospect, Van Peperstraten would have approached the farewell differently, but now he also knows that it is part of his TV career. “Look, it shouldn’t have happened, I’m still disappointed, but if I eventually stop as a presenter or die, then it is probably a reference to that farewell. Because everyone remembers that. It does have a kind of signature. Humor starts with self-mockery and I would have liked to have picked that up more easily, were it not for the fact that those men from WE were ahead of me.”

Farewell Radio 1

entertainment">In the podcast, Van Peperstraten confirms that he will leave as a presenter of NPO Radio 1 on 1 January. “We are very disappointed. We hope to leave through the front door, with significantly higher numbers than before. We hope that there will be a lack of understanding in public opinion as to why the program has to go.”

entertainment">Initially, Van Peperstraten presented the program with Dionne Stax, but it soon became apparent that there was no question of chemistry. “Dionne and I are completely different characters. We had hoped that we would complement each other. If you are going to make a duo program, you have to make sure that one plus one is much more than two. That you bring out the best in each other and that a kind of chemistry is created. That was just really hard. We had too little common ground.”

With Mischa Blok, Van Peperstraten will present the NPO Radio 1 program Blok&Toine until 1 January.
