What to expect from Linda's Summer Week

There are few Dutch-language programmes you can keep me at home for. Not necessarily consciously, but instead of Penoza, I am team Game of Thrones, and Humberto I swap for Jimmy Fallon and James Corden. But what you can find me at home for is the queen of Dutch television and her Summer Week. And tonight the fifth series finally starts.

Want to know who all can be found on Linda de Mol's sofa this year? We have Patricia Paay, who is teaming up with Jan Versteegh and whose promo you may have already seen passing by. ‘I want to taste everything, know everything, everything... It's always been like that.’ ‘All that tasting hasn't gone quite right then.’ Yahaa, Jan is just saying what we're all thinking. Incidentally, Jan also tells the story of how his parents encouraged him to come out of the closet - so you can all see how that turned out tonight at 9.30pm on RTL4.

Who else we can all expect to see are Feyenoord coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst together with actress Elise Schaap, comedian Claudia de Breij with gymnast Epke Zonderland, writer Saskia Noort with comedian Najib Amhali and, as the final duo, presenter Astrid Joosten and presenter Beau van Erven Dorens will be found on Linda's infamous couch.

But first Patries and Jan for the kick-off. Come onrrrrrr.
