Beau van Erven Dorens picks up his talk show on RTL4 on Monday evening. Many topics are corona related this season. According to the presenter, not everything has been said about that, he says in AD.
“This news concerns us all. I see so many topics. I read about ‘immunity’. What is it then? People who eat red salt? Jump naked in cold water?” Van Erven Dorens asks himself in conversation with the newspaper. .
The 49-year-old television maker has been intensively involved with the virus and its consequences for a while: “Corona, virologists, experts, the crisis, the economy, I have been doing nothing else for weeks. Tear up all the newspapers, wrestle me through files, go off all news sites. “
“A few weeks later, three people died”
He wants to reserve the first half hour of his talk show for informative items, but Van Erven Dorens also wants to pay attention to personal stories about the crisis.
“I experienced that with Beau Stays Inside, a modest fun thing that brought me directly into people’s living rooms. So many emotions arose there. Then a woman told about a 50th wedding anniversary in March. And of which three people died a few weeks later. “
Van Erven Dorens says he has a lot of respect for his colleague Eva Jinek, with whom he shares the time slot at night. Whether he is in her ratings (between 800,000 and 900,000 ed.), he does not know: “It will not surprise anyone if I lose some viewers, but I would like it if I manage to get close.”
