The men of Today Inside have been watching it for two weeks, but they really don’t think Rob Kemps is the new figurehead of the Jumbo. “Frank Lammers was more suitable.”
Anyone who thought that Frank Lammers was an annoyance as the figurehead of the Jumbo has not yet seen his successor Rob Kemps at work. Frank was actually better, Johan Derksen now concludes Today Inside. “I was not a fan of that actor… but that actor worked from a family situation and that is very recognizable for the viewers.”
‘He’s an actor!’
René van der Gijp also points out that Frank is a real actor. “He’s also an actor, right, Johan, that makes a difference.”
Johan: “Yes, but if you have a family, you have many more creative options, but now Rob Kemps… He has been busy for two weeks now and he is already a cheap clown who makes funny faces.”
René: “But Johan, he is not an actor. Then it quickly becomes village theater. That Frank Lammers is just an actor.”
Crazy pelvis
Rob is a wrong choice by Jumbo, Johan believes. “It’s making funny faces. This is going to be annoying, you know. It’s making funny faces and having fun.”
Table guest Thomas van Groningen: “I find it painful when you look on social media and you see messages from Jumbo, then people react underneath. So they take the time to write: ‘We want Frank Lammers back.’ I find that quite painful. That you can miss someone in an advertisement.”
Clown
Johan thinks it is a blunder. “Yes, but Frank Lammers was the father in that family and the mother and children all played a role, so these are recognizable videos for everyone in the living room and now a clown appears. We are waiting for the moment when the entire staff has to move from left to right. That will come at some point.”
René: “I think that Frank Lammers, because he played in films and such, also had the ability to work on the script.”
Johan: “He would have given hints.”
René: “Yes, that is his job…”
