RTL 4 does not rule out that they will make an offer for the men of Today Inside, now that their contract with Talpa has expired. “We never make statements about this,” the channel said when asked.
Today Inside’s contract will continue for one year after the current TV season and that means that Wilfred Genee can start looking around. RTL, the previous employer of the VI trio, has recently been led by their former boss Peter Lubbers, who succeeded the politically correct Peter van der Vorst. Is a transfer coming?
Lobbying
Wilfred and René seem to be pragmatic, but Johan Derksen wants to remain loyal to John de Mol, although he emphasizes that ultimately everyone is for sale.
The VI mustache says in De Telegraaf: “John de Mol has freed me from a football talk show that was boring me. He has turned it into a general talk show, which I feel comfortable with. Then I will not lobby to be able to go to RTL for a few extra cents.”
Half a million
There must be a very good offer, says Johan. “If RTL throws crazy amounts, such as five thousand euros, then you should consider that. But I don’t have the feeling that they intend to do that.”
What RTL thinks about it? In response to the rumors, they say: “We never make statements about whether or not we are interested in or thinking about a new program title. This also applies to these jokes from the men at the table.”
