Since it first aired three seasons ago in 2015, VeranderDinge has covered a variety of individuals, trends, and topics with the aim of inspiring viewers to embrace change in their lives. It is co-presented by Eloise Cupido and sponsored by BrightRock.
"I have so enjoyed my time on VeranderDinge, and my return to Sunday night TV. The show has such a novel approach to lifestyle programmes, and it was a great privilege to be given a glimpse into other people’s lives. That said, I feel it’s time to get involved with other projects," says Landman.
Bekker is known for her drive time show on RSG, Tjailatyd, which been broadcasting to Afrikaans audiences for the past 13 years. It’s her first stint on television in over 20 years. "I am thrilled to be presenting VeranderDinge, as I have been a fan of the show since its first season. Much of what viewers love about it will still be there, but, of course, we have made some changes to keep the show fresh. Change, after all, is the subject of the show."
To mark the handover, Landman will be Bekker’s first guest on VeranderDinge when the fourth season begins on Sunday, 8 October. Ruda, in turn, also interviewed Bekker as part of her Ruda Talks Change web series on BrightRock’s Change Exchange.
"Ruda is certainly leaving big shoes for me to fill. It was an honour to interview her, and I think it is very fitting that she will help me kick off our new season," adds Bekker.
Landman also talked to Bekker about the upcoming series of VeranderDinge in a shorter interview, which can be watched here.
