#2Barend is weer bezig

Drama Series - 1972, 16 episodes as Barend Servet

8.8 / 10
Comedy

The television program was built around the character Barend Servet, played by IJf Blokker, who had first appeared in De Fred Haché Show in 1971. Other characters returning from the Haché Show were Sjef van Oekel (played by Dolf Brouwers) and Fred Haché (played by Harry Touw). In typical Schippers fashion, the program, like its predecessor, derived its comedic effects from crude humor, silly costumes or nudity, chaos, and absurdism; it combined the trivial and banal with controversial content. There were four episodes and a Christmas special, "Waar heb dat nou voor nodig?". For the Christmas special, two songs were written by Wim T. Schippers and Clous van Mechelen for Dolf Brouwers: "Vette jus" and "Juliana onze vorstin".

#680 jaar, reeds - op de T bij Wim Schippers

Movie - 2022, 2h 15m as Barend Servet (archive footage)

8.8 / 10
Documentary

An ode to multi-talented artist and radio and television producer Wim T. Schippers by absurdist Ronald Snijders. In a cheerfully disruptive manner, Snijders guides the viewer through a richly illustrated overview of Schippers' work, where they meet the man who could both seduce and intentionally bore, confuse, shock, and irritate Dutch television viewers. Many clips of Schippers became legendary, such as Queen Juliana cleaning Brussels sprouts, a naked Phil Bloom reading the newspaper, and the shows featuring Barend Servet and Sjef van Oekel. Schippers wrote the sheepdog play Going to the Dogs and has been the voice of Ernie in Sesamstraat for many years.
