NPO apologizes after abrupt end of Eva talk show, Digi Mart USA News: Marnix van Egmond, editor-in-chief of Eva, told the newspaper AD that a “technical error at the NPO” caused the broadcast to end a few seconds early. “As a result, our broadcast was accidentally ended a few seconds too soon.”
According to him, the Eva broadcast was not too long. “We were exactly at the required 47 minutes.” Asked whether Eva and her team were upset, he suggested that was not the case.
“It can happen,” the editor-in-chief said.
A spokesperson for the NPO also said the problem occurred during the switching moment to the NOS Journaal news program. “We understand that this is unpleasant for everyone who followed this conversation.
We are looking into how this could happen. We apologize.”
In the interview, Eva spoke with actor Pierre Bokma about his role as Rembrandt van Rijn in Spinoza. They also discussed a biography being written about him and Bokma’s hope for a role in GTST.
“I don’t know if it could happen in the short term, but in principle I would like to work on a short stint,” he said, referring to his wish to enter Meerdijk. “I want to know how it works.
All those people are doing their best, and they have a large audience.”
Right after that remark, the broadcast was cut off. The episode can still be watched in full via NPO Start.
Viewers on television did not hear Eva say: “Pierre, it was a pleasure to see you again. The film Spinoza opens in cinemas on November 19.
Thank you for watching, and see you tomorrow.”
Social media users reacted to the sudden ending, with some asking whether the program had been dropped for running long and others noting that no farewell was announced.
