Sven Kockelmann causes quite a bit of annoyance with the fountain pen he continuously holds on television. “What weight does that give you? I think it’s ridiculous!”, says TV star Koos Postema.
It disturbs TV star Koos Postema immensely that many presenters on television continuously hold a pen, while they do not use it at all. It’s a fad that he says he can’t get used to. He is especially disappointed in Sven Kockelmann, because he is one of his favorite presenters.
Very big pen
Koos doesn’t understand it. “The most annoying thing about television right now, I think – and that has been going on for months – is that almost all female presenters have a pen in their right hand and sometimes point it at the person they are interviewing,” he says. in the AD Media podcast†
What kind of pen? “Usually a small pen. But what is my surprise? Sven Kockelmann is also doing that. And of course he has a really big pen. He is pointing menacingly at the people with a kind of fountain pen.”
“Why the hell?”
According to Koos, Sven really doesn’t need that. “What the hell would that be? What weight does that give you? Does that make you less nervous? I can not imagine it. Ridiculous.”
Incidentally, Sven’s pen seems to be a very expensive model from Montblanc. It would be about it Meisterstück 149 GT model worth 855 euros. Many buyers are enthusiastic. “A formidable pen: oversized, good balance and a large nib with excellent writing comfort,” reads a customer review.
