René van der Gijp does not want the butt ticker of Today Inside to receive a definitive studio ban. Apparently it’s not allowed, but I’ve done it before. haha! Not you?”
As a nod to the disturbances in Eva Jinek’s studio, Today Inside decided to hire a stripper the day before yesterday. During the live broadcast, the woman suddenly took off her clothes and then walked through the set. On her way to the exit, a gentleman in the audience slapped her on the buttocks.
butt ticker
This boy, who was wearing a white shirt, was immediately kicked out of the studio of Today Inside. The stripper in question was paid to take off her clothes in the TV broadcast and not to be touched unsolicited by someone in the audience.
René van der Gijp came back to that butt tick incident yesterday, so one evening later: “The butt ticker! The butt ticker! But he was also completely free, hey, the butt ticker!”
Studio ban
Wilfred Genee: “Yes, he thought: I also contribute.”
Rene: “Hahaha!”
Johan Derksen: “It was a very quiet boy who sat there on the corner.”
Wilfred: “Yes, with his three friends. Yes, he was immediately directed out by André, of course.”
René does not think that the boy should get a permanent studio ban. “Yeah, but I’ll let it come sometime. Yes Yes Yes. Tapping the buttocks… Yes, yes… Apparently it’s not allowed, but I’ve done it before. haha! Not you? Not you?”
Wilfred: “Well, not in that way, to be honest.”
Rene: “No?”
Wilfred: “No, no.”
Not awake anymore
In any case, something is happening, says René. He finds the competing talk shows boring. “Yesterday I was watching both Op1 and Jinek and if you’ve watched that completely, then you only hope for one thing: that you don’t wake up the next morning. That you just stay in it.”
VI is intended to provide people with some entertainment, according to René. “You know, come on man. I drive here every day, hoping it will be a fun program. No more.”
Intensly sad
What is René’s mission at VI? “That it can be laughed at a bit, Johan says some sensible things, Marcel throws in a nice joke and then I go home and I think: well, that was fun.”
“But when I’m watching those two programmes, then I really think: that someone else is watching. It makes me very sad.”
