The whole of Holland also bakes fake? ‘Janny van der Heijden doesn’t really eat!’

It couldn’t get any crazier: after Boerderij Van Dorst and the Bauers soap, Heel Holland Bakt also turns out to not be one hundred percent authentic. “Janny van der Heijden doesn’t eat everything.”

Raven van Dorst always pretends to be so mega-authentic, but their program Boerderij Van Dorst also turns out to be typical TV: according to Ellen ten Damme, it is all quite staged. A shame, says Angela de Jong. And according to her, Frans Bauer also has to be careful, because she has the feeling that his Christmas soap is not completely authentic either.

Garbage bin

What does Privé star journalist Jan Uriot think of this? Are we being fooled as viewers? “I am completely amazed at what is happening here, because suddenly it has become a new media thing,” he says in the section What does Jan think?.

“It’s because of Ellen ten Damme, who was cutting a salad in that broadcast and that salad never made it to the table, because a company catered there and that salad was thrown in the garbage bin. That’s where the story comes from. It then also turns out that the farm does not belong to Raven, but that it is simply a location that is rented.”

“It’s fake!”

The result? Fuss. “Now it’s suddenly a hassle, like: ‘It’s fake!’ Nothing is real in showbiz. Then I think: what are you so worried about? Did you really think that Rik Felderhof’s villa at the time, in Saint-Tropez, was his? So no. Beau van Erven Dorens is in a villa in Italy and it is not his, it is all rented.”

“It now turns out that De Bauers’ soap also contains all kinds of fake things. That’s just how it works! What were you thinking?”

Janny also fake

Jan reveals that Heel Holland Bakt is also not one hundred percent authentic. “That Janny van der Heijden at Heel Holland Bakt, he’s not eating all those cookies, is he?! Because then that person will no longer be able to get through the door! I mean: it’s all fake and that’s how television works.”

It is understandable that Janny does not eat all the cookies, says co-host Pim Sedee. “But maybe it could just be an ounce less, right? I mean, we don’t all have to pretend that Ellen ten Damme was preparing a whole salad?”

Jan: “Sometimes you have plays, yes, well.”
