The Who is the mole?fever officially broke out this afternoon among fans of the NPO 1 hit when mysterious boxes appeared in five places in the Netherlands. They could open Molloten by doing assignments, helped by the people in the other cities and fans at home. Only then would they find out which celebrities are participating in the new season, which takes place in South Africa.
It was pretty busy inside Whonors, iJsselstein, Deventer, middelburg and Haarlem (023), the first letters of which refer to the program’s well-known abbreviation (WIDM) and to area code 023, due to the 23rd season. The program shared the coordinates of the five spots last week and wrote that fans should “work together”, but what would happen was not clear at the time.
It now appears that the first hint (‘will you announce the candidates?’) applied to today. A live stream could be followed from every location on the program’s site. It is the first time that the makers of the program give fans a chance to find out participants in this way. Each box was good for two names of participants. If Mollots managed to open all boxes before 5 p.m., they would find out all the names. That finally worked.
After a first assignment, the players already received ‘Mollenpost’, which was written in different languages spoken in South Africa. It turned out to be a clue to the country where the new season was filmed.
It is the second time that the program takes place there. The thirteenth season, in 2013, also took place there. Then Kees was Tol de Mol. Presenter Rik van de Westelaken takes the candidates to the Western Cape province for a visit to Cape Town, to continue the journey via the Tulbagh Valley to the semi-desert Karoo and coastal town of Wildernis.
The 23rd series of Who is the mole? will start on January 7 at 8.30 pm on NPO 1. The first episode traditionally lasts extra long, an hour and a quarter. Last year, 2.5 million people watched the finale, in which actor Everon Jackson Hooi (Bing in Good times Bad Times) was exposed as the Mole.
