All kicking off on Dutch telly, too. Private channel RTL4 has Lego masters and De 1% quiz on Saturday night, and SBS6 goes with Ik hou van Holland and De Alleskunner vips. Sunday is Miljoenenjacht, the game with twenty-six sealed boxes etc. Expeditie Robinson began last Monday on RTL4, and celebrity guessing game Fout maar goud comes to Thursday - looks closer to Guessable than The Connection.
