Bennie, a clumsy criminal who's touchy about his weight, teams up with his adoptive father's biological (serial killer) son, his employees who in his absence turned his snack-bar into a quiche bakery, a suicidal manic-depressive woman and a Yougoslavian who keeps blowing things up unintended.

In 2016, the Noordbrabants Museum in the Dutch city of Den Bosch held a special exhibition devoted to the work of Hieronymus Bosch, who died 500 years ago. This late-medieval artist lived his entire life in the city, causing uproar with his fantastical and utterly unique paintings in which hell and the devil always played a prominent role. In preparation for the exhibition, a team of Dutch art historians crisscrosses the globe to unravel the secrets of his art. They use special infrared cameras to examine the sketches beneath the paint, in the hope of discovering more about the artist's intentions. They also attempt to establish which of the paintings can be attributed with certainty to Bosch himself, and which to his pupils or followers. The experts shuttle between Den Bosch, Madrid and Venice, cutting their way through the art world's tangle of red tape, in a battle against the obstacle of countless egos and conflicting interests. Not every museum is prepared to allow access to their precious art works.

9-episode travelogue through The Netherlands of 1823, following the itinerary and words as jotted down in the diary of young Dutch author Jacob van Lennep, who hiked -by foot and coach- during three months in the rainy summer of 1823, through the young Kingdom of the Netherlands, eight years after its becoming independent. Author Geert Mak, as narrator, joined me during the sunny summer of 2000 on a trip retracing the footsteps of Van Lennep, with the amazing result that most of the 19th century's locations could be found intact, following the original footpaths and coach-routes. Thus this mini-series turned out to be a living testimony of cultural-history of The Netherlands of 200 years ago.
