Popular TV series “Uncles” gets second season

The humorous fiction series about the Persyn family will therefore be continued in a second season. The season finale, tomorrow on Play4, is therefore not a final goodbye to the three West Flemish brothers, their entourage and the Cameroonian refugee Innocent.

“Warm Responses”

Jelle De Beule (uncle Luc): “Great news and a great desire to get back into our pen and into our characters. Especially after all the warm reactions of the past few weeks. The series has made young and old laugh. That’s the best compliment for all of us. Blaise, Isabelle, Emilie, Silke, Wim and Rik have really become family. For that alone, Nonkels II is a gift: a long-awaited family reunion.”

Rik Verheye (uncle Willy): “The response was absolutely overwhelming. From quotes that were yelled at us to a bulging mailbox with photos of, according to Carine, correctly served – rik an rik, equal two half moons – pancakes. Not to mention hilarious selfies with Uncle Willy’s grass-green Porsche and the many photos of a random patch of artificial grass. How wonderful is that?!”
