Youp van ‘t Hek complained for the umpteenth time about the farewell gift that he received from the VARA – a bottle of wine – and that causes annoyance at Jan Uriot. “It’s really an old nag.”
It was eight (!) Months ago in the news: Youp van ‘t Hek who is angry with BNNVARA because they gave him a bottle of wine after his last New Year’s Eve conference. And yesterday he again complained in Opium, the talk show of Cornald Maas. “Do you give a glass to a trainee who leaves, but not to someone with whom you have been working for 42 years?”
Instigator
Jan Uriot, star journalist of the private person, finds Youp an instigator. “It is such a strange message, because Youp is actually not of things like that. They don’t want those big worions at all. Just do it, then you do crazy enough with him. And now the box of wine is not good again. What is you getting a bit an old nag, isn’t it?”
Show expert Jordi Versteegden then says in the podcast Strictly private: “What did he want? A PowerPoint presentation or something? With all kinds of highlights? I mean: I also assume that he is well paid for all those years for what he has done.”
‘Also offended’
He does understand that Youp was angry about something else. “Yes, what was not so handy from the VARA is that they had not brought their abacus, because they had written on a card at that box of wine:” Thank you for nine New Year’s Eve conferences, “and it turned out to be ten according to. And he is already offended about that.”
Jan: “He is already offended about that? What a nag. No, I also read a message this week that he no longer wanted to perform in a certain theater, because he once went there and then he wasn’t even offered a cup of coffee.”
‘Oh, how pathetic’
Youp who doesn’t get coffee? Ai … Jordi: “Ah, how pathetic.”
Jan: “Then I think: well, then walk to the kitchen and grab a cup of coffee yourself. Youp starts to be an old nag.”
The smartest human producer Marc Dik is also critical. He writes down X: “If Youp sets such a prize on attentive thanks, I hope that he also sent something nice to BNN/VARA. Because he received between 1 and more than 2 tons per New Year’s Eve conference and did 10.”
Unprofessional
Yet Youp also has supporters. Albert Verlinde says in Good morning Netherlands: “Then you say as management: how are we going to do this, boys? Do something to put that man on the throne. Not done, just given a bottle of wine. And I know BNNVARA a little, so I also think the worst wine there is.”
And TV authority Tina Nijkamp In her podcast“Yes, such a bottle of wine was of course quickly bought at the Albert Heijn or at the local wine trade. Yes, then prefer nothing, so to speak. It fits in a row of BNNVARA of more blunders.
