Albert Verlinde also left the TV hit today Inside because he did not receive any appreciation from the Talpa summit, for example from John de Mol. “While I really got my neck out.”
Before the end of Albert Verlinde’s TV career, it is a shame that he switched from viewing figure hit today Inside to Megaflop RTL Tonight. He received all the praise for his performances as a Wednesday substitute for René van der Gijp, but still took the legs. Why actually? It was partly the lack of appreciation, according to the show connoisseur.
Little appreciation
Albert tells in conversation with Wilfred Genee, for his podcast As long as it’s funthat he never received an app from the Talpa summit and therefore from the big boss John de Mol. “I think afterwards I think: there could have been a little more appreciation that I put my neck out in January by taking René’s place.”
It was quite a risky step, he continues. “Because that could have went very wrong and you link you to the program. I thought there was very little appreciation for it at the top. That I did that and it went well. I never heard anything about that that it went well.”
No contract
Recognition in the form of a contract was also not forthcoming, says Albert. “They didn’t want that. Well, then it will stop a bit too.”
In the end, he therefore opted for the ‘reunion feeling’ at RTL, where his former Boulevard colleague Peter van der Vorst is now in charge. That VI exit is somewhere a shame, says Albert. “A bit. I still think I still find … you can’t get anywhere or people say,” We’ll miss you inside today. ” The audience thinks that is a shame. “
Bad weather
Apparently the Albert states that John does not just take the phone. And that while the gentlemen know each other well; Earlier Albert made the failed 6 Inside for SBS 6. “I really owe a lot to him, isn’t it. He treated me fantastic and never ran away for appointments we had together.”
He continues: “But it is not immediately the man who calls and says,” Gosh, the weather is bad, I’ll call you. ” He is not seeing that at RTL, that a little more apps or calling.
Rather Joop
Albert has a better click with Joop van den Ende. “I also had a lot of fun and good conversations with John, but John and I both work in a different world.”
“You will meet each other, but John wanted to go to a musical once – that was The Bodyguard with Romy – but for the rest I don’t want to be found dead in a musical room. We actually have our own world, but Joop and I have the same world.”
