The Connection is a knowledge quiz that revolves around a single answer: the ultimate connection. Hosted by Patrick Lodiers, the show features three Dutch celebrities along with viewers at home competing across four rounds. The correct answers in each round are linked to one another, ultimately leading to a single, all-encompassing answer. For instance, what is the connection between Alicia Keys, the Guggenheim Museum, the Yankees, and *Friends*? Or between the color red, May 1st, Jan Wolkers, and Doorn? Which contestant possesses not only a broad range of general knowledge but also the ability to link all the answers together to uncover the ultimate connection?

De Avondetappe is a daily television program during the Tour de France that discusses the stage of that day. From 2003 to 2014, the presentation was in the hands of Mart Smeets. In 2015, the program was replaced by NOS Studio Tour, but since 2016 De Avondetappe has returned to the screen, now with presenters Dione de Graaff and Herman van der Zandt.
