"Provençaalse kip"

Here's a funny parody of Lekker thuis, a cooking programme broadcast on the Flemish channel VTM and hosted by Piet Huysentruyt (a West-Fleming). This parody was a sketch for 'Chris en Co'.

Alles kan beter (4)

Let's watch a couple of other fragments from the tremendously hilarious show Alles kan beter. The first extract is evidence that French-speaking students of Dutch are not the only ones who make mistakes when saying the plural form of a noun:



Waw! The former rector of the K.U.Leuven, André Oosterlinck, had a combover! Gotcha!


"Na de maaltijd begaf minister-president Van den Brande zich naar de toiletten. Daar zag ie drie lavabi. Hij deed pipo in de middenstens.



"Blind date?"
"Een 'Braille-afspraak'."

"Hoe noemt men Vlamingen in Benidorm, bijvoorbeeld? 'Paellatievepatienten'?"
"Baignoren."
"VTM-ers?"

Alles kan beter (3)

The team of Alles kan beter hasn't forgotten old people who are a bit deaf: they've created a special newsprogramme for them:



"Met een beetje geluk, tot morgen!"

A comparison between the VRT and VTM news programmes:

Jean-Marie Pfaff, Flemish Star

Jean-Marie Pfaff, probably the best Belgian goal keeper ever, is now what we call a BV (Bekende Vlaming, Famous Flemish). He has such a high status that he has a reality show where cameras follow him in his everyday life, along with his family in Braschaat (near Antwerp). The show is aired on VTM, a popular Flemish channel. There have been 5 seasons, and probably a 6th one as from September 2007. Anyway, in order to advertize for that show, they painted a tramway with his picture, with is arm to make as though he was giving a kiss.

What strikes me is that he has a LEFT hand instead of a RIGHT hand (look at the thumb)!!! It's a vulgar Photoshop effect, with a fake arm stitched on him… :D
