Let’s hang out-the host of the program changes. Earlier on Tuesday, Yle announced that in the upcoming season, Mervi Kallio will start as the host of the program and Matti Rönkä will continue as a judge.
Jenni Poikelus, who was the host of the program in previous seasons, will not continue in the program. He now explains on his Instagram account why he is no longer seen in the program.
– As someone may have already noticed, I will not be participating in the upcoming season. There is nothing more dramatic about it, he writes.
– I was offered the opportunity to do one (still secret hihihi!) new thing, which unfortunately did not work out according to the schedule together with Hengailu. I decided to go for something new, so more about that later! The exception continues.
In his publication, Poikelus praises and praises the program’s working group and the viewers.
– I got to make the Hengaillaan program for three wonderful seasons with absolutely wonderful people! It was an honor to start something new with all of you.
The Hengaillaan program was piloted in the previous season by Jenni Poikelus and Matti Rönkä. Matti Matikainen
He also congratulates his successor, Mervi Kallio, on his new job.
– Thank you Jenni. I have big boots to fill, Kallio answers.
– It feels exciting and tickling, but in a good way. I’m facing something new, I’ve never done this type of entertainment program before, Kallio described his mood in the press release.
