– Extremely strange – news Culture and entertainment

– I feel incredibly lucky to have had eight years with “Nytt på Nytt” and the superb editorial staff, says Pernille Sørensen and adds: – It has been a gift to sit and discuss news every Friday with the world’s most polite and smartest people. Since 2015, she has been a fixture on the panel of one of Norway’s most popular entertainment programs, where she has delivered one satirical joke after another. But on Friday he has his last broadcast. – It is extremely strange. I feel a jumble of feelings. – There are a bunch of very funny people I won’t be working with anymore, and that makes me very sad, she says. Takes time to digest The comedian has been a central figure in humor in Norway for the past 20 years, and she has worked on many different productions on TV and stage. Sørensen is therefore used to big changes of pace, but admits that this time is extra special. – It’s because I’ve had this job for so long. And we work so intensely and so closely together throughout the year. Then you become very attached to the people you work with, she says. The same applies to “Side om side”, according to Sørensen. Earlier this winter, the news came that the autumn season will be the last. – It will take time for me to digest that a whole decade of two major job productions with so many people I am happy with is over, she says. – So I’m probably going to have a bit of that thick dusty voice with the crying quite a lot throughout this spring. Because I am so grateful that I have been so lucky and been able to take part in so much fun. Pernille Sørensen says that she has never regretted a joke she has made. But that he is sometimes afraid of hurting someone if the joke is a bit on the edge.

And this Thursday he will have celebrity company. Then it’s none other than Jon Almaas and Knut Nærum who guest on the programme. – The last broadcast will be with all the boys I have worked with. The circle is closed. It couldn’t have been anyone else but them, underlines Sørensen. Colleagues about Pernille Sørensen: Ole KalandBård Tufte Johansen Comedian and presenter – As a comedian, Pernille has a very large register. Pernille can shoot hard and precisely, but can also shoot a cute little flag that says “bang” on it. You never know what’s coming, except that it’s probably something funny. As a person and a friend, she is funny, chatty and thorough. So it’s even better that I get to keep her as a friend. – Pernille rarely has a bad broadcast and has a lot of credit for the fact that “Nytt på Nytt” has such a high bottom level. She will be missed on TV and in the editorial office. I’m against her quitting. Ole KalandJohan Golden Comedian and presenter – This is sad for everyone. For all of Norway. But especially for Pernille’s family who are now forced to have a Pernille at home who is not allowed to chat away at work. My thoughts go out not only to everyone who has been hurt, but especially to the children and Dagfinn. – Pernille is impossible to replace. It’s just a Pernille. Luckily. But as some wise man said: “The churchyard is full of irreplaceable people”. So we’ll probably get through. It will be a story. Jon Almaas Comedian and program manager – Pernille has roots in Bærum and Bergen. It makes for a special mix. She has the authority of a mountaineer and the agility of a bear. She is cheeky and elegant at the same time and thus gets away with a lot. – As a presenter, it is very safe to have Pernille by your side. She has good flair and never misses. She is an intricate mixture of Greta Garbo and Kjerringa med stave. With knitting in one hand and a Dior bag in the other. – At news, they are fond of maritime metaphors, I know, and you can say that Pernille has been the spinnaker on the “Nytt på Nytt” ship for many years now.Anne Life EkrollKnut Nærum Comedian and author – Pernille is carbon-based. Hilarious. And skillfully. In other countries, one would have had to use three people for this: To be a permanent participant in Norway’s most popular entertainment program, in the top tier of stand-up comedians and to play a supporting role in the country’s most watched situation comedy. In Norway, we have Pernille who fixes all three. – Through her role in the program, Pernille has formulated our nation’s conscience in jokes. “Nytt på Nytt”‘s function is to tell when something or someone is getting a little too much, and she is the one who has said it most clearly. For eight years. Which must be some kind of record. Rune LindKjetil Kooyman Project manager, “New to New” – Pernille was already a big star when she started in the “New to New” team manager job, and over the years with us has strengthened her position as Norway’s best, the very best comedian. – She is smart, careful, a joy to work with and has the capacity to both do her job as a team manager while at the same time she has the surplus to take care of the guests in the program and the people around her. – In that way Pernille has contributed heavily to creating the most artistic possible “New to New” for the Norwegian people on Friday evening well over 200 times. It’s just a matter of thanking and bowing, and congratulating her on her efforts and wishing her to close with all the fun she now has a little more time to create. New big comedy series Although this week is Sørensen’s last broadcast, she will not be absent from the comedy universe. As a comedian, screenwriter and comedian, she has many irons in the fire. It is also the reason why she gives herself up in “Nytt på Nytt”. She needs time to focus on new projects. Already after the summer you see her as the character Lisbeth in the last season of “Side om side”. In the autumn, she will also premiere on Latter with the comedy show “3 for 1” with Live Nelvik and Kristine Riis. In addition, she will work on a new major comedy series for news at the same time. She is also a screenwriter on two other projects. – When all these balls land at the same time, it becomes difficult to have a full-time job as “New again”. The universe only has 24 hours in a day, and then it becomes difficult to juggle four jobs, she chuckles lightly. Pernille Sørensen has many balls in the air, and is looking forward to new projects. Project manager Kooyman says that they are slowly starting the process to find Pernille’s heir. – There are big shoes to fill, but at the same time we have to look at it clearly: there are many good people out there that we are curious about, he reveals.

At the same time, I dread saying goodbye to a wonderful era in my life, says Sørensen. You are allowed to call private experiences epochs too, can you not then, she asks. And concludes quite quickly: – Yes. I am far too happy in this job to just call it a time. It deserves to be called an era, yes.
