Wilfred called this day ‘an historic day’ at the beginning of his radio show. He is still stunned by the news. “I am being called drowsy. I still have to let everything sink in. It has been TV for twenty years. I can’t say anything about it. It is still fresh,” he says.

Wilfred finds it ‘a pity’ that the program is ending. “I think it’s a shame. I think there were opportunities to continue.” The program did not have to be taken off the tube by the broadcaster. “If Johan stops, we must also stop. That has been the agreement from the beginning.”

Wilfred looks back on the infamous TV moment with mixed feelings. “It was misplaced,” says the presenter. But he also tries to nuance it. “Things are exaggerated with us.” It is still unclear what Wilfred will do in the field of television. “Not the faintest idea. I have to let it sink in.”

Now that the talk show cannot be seen tonight, Wilfred has a free evening with his family. “I’m going to sit down with my family. The Stir I saw,” he says with a laugh about the new programming. “It was the most watched talk show in the Netherlands. I think they (Talpa, ed.) are fed up with it. There’s bound to be something new.”
