Better late than never come back, but not with Gerard Cox, Peter Faber and Barrie Stevens | show
the TV show Better late than never returns to the tube, but no longer on RTL 4. SBS 6 will broadcast the series and allow another company to go on a trip. Peter Faber, Gerard Cox, Barrie Stevens and Willibrord Frequin were the first company to visit Asia in 2018 with Olcay Gulsen as tour guide.
The five visited Japan, Vietnam, Thailand and Sri Lanka. Shortly before the corona broke out, the quartet was allowed to travel again, this time to Central and South America. Now Katja Schuurman was her supervisor. The show was critically acclaimed, but the second series aired during the 2020 pandemic felt a bit strange, as touching and shaking hands was now out of the question, but footage of a busy carnival in Rio de Janeiro was shown.
Around this time, Willibrord Frequin stated that he was ‘in talks’ for a third edition (“There are still many beautiful places to visit”), but that did not take off. The journalist and presenter passed away two years later, on May 26, 2022. Gerard Cox (83) confirms that the three gentlemen do not have to pack their bags for a third edition this time. “They called me very nice that they were going to do that with others. No problem, mind you. I don’t think I can anymore. We enjoyed it and it looked great, but it is very strenuous. I think we did twenty flights. I was very much against it.”
It has not yet been clarified who will succeed Olcay Gulsen and Katja Schuurman, but it has been said that she would be a ‘sports presenter’. Estavana Polman said that she was not in the photo. Chatilla van Grinsven, who she can be seen regularly on SBS 6 shows, could not be contacted. Better late than never in the subway, who will participate and where the trip will go, has not yet been announced.
