This week the stage was set for the premiere of NRK’s new program “Easter crime games” with Markus Neby (32) in the role of presenter.
With him, he has ten familiar faces who will prepare themselves for a series of challenges, while a secret killer prowls around the hotel. Here it is about revealing the killer’s identity until Easter Eve.
An adventurous life
In the first episode, the participants were given a hint about who is hiding behind the mask and the clue read: “I like to build and renovate”. Names such as Synnøve Skarbø (53), Kjersti Bergesen (61) and Eyvind Hellstrøm (75) are highlighted as alternative “murderers”.
Norwegians are no strangers to taking part in guessing games, and are happy to help solve mysteries in programs such as “Maskorama”. Now all you have to do is buckle up and get ready for another one.
– Better to tear off the plaster
– Has some dark sides
Se og Hør has taken on the guessing game itself, and on that occasion has spoken to several celebrities who have a special connection to Easter.
Among those who have made up their minds is TV profile Øystein Bache (63), who for a number of years has led “Påskenøtter” together with Rune Gokstad (65).
– I’m probably as confused as everyone else. Building and renovating, sesame oil, tiger and bull… for now, my best tip is that it is myself, but I don’t tell that to anyone but you, and you probably don’t tell it further, Bache answers cryptically in an SMS.
Gokstad is also following the new Easter venture – and he has made up his mind about who the “murderer” is.
Reveals: Was a personal gift
– I follow the “Easter crime games” with pleasure, and have been on the same suspects that the participants have speculated about. Jon Almaas was my first thought, says Gokstad.
Now, however, he suspects his partner.
– But then it was someone in the family who suggested Øystein Bache. He has some dark sides, and is good at keeping a secret.
TV chef Arne Brimi (66) says that he has no concrete thoughts on who is hiding behind the mask.
– No. Unfortunately, it could be everyone, he replies succinctly in an SMS to Se og Hør.
Star-studded
The participants who appear in NRK’s new Easter initiative are Anette Trettebergstuen (42), Kåre Magnus Berg (45), Henrik Asheim (40), Lena Kristin Ellingsen (43), Rikke Isaksen (29), Esben “The Danes” Selvig (45), Kristine Grændsen (32), Mari Bella (19), Arman Surizehi (31) and Ole Henry Snilsdali (25).
Speaks out: – Became very Christian
These are probably not, but we should never say never. On Easter Eve, we will get the answer.
381,000 caught the first episode of “Easter crime games” at 19:50 on the Saturday before Palm Sunday. For comparison, 484,000 watched the first episode of “24-star Christmas calendar” on linear TV.
– These are good viewing figures, says media analyst Lasse Gimnes to Dagbladet.
