About this episode
It's time once again for our annual round-up of the minor incidents that got everybody hot under the collar for five minutes on social media at some point this year. And what a bumper harvest it's been. Caroline van der Plas performed a hardboiled cunning stunt in front of Geert Wilders, a man called Willie fell foul of the regulations on phallic garden ornaments and Nicky Minaj was jailed for trying to take drugs out of the Netherlands. We'll also remind you of how Brussels tried to cancel a Dutch delicacy and why a group of pensioners revolted over a bingo booze ban. And don't forget to vote for your favourite so you can win a deluxe Dutch News mug and a coveted Zeesluis IJmuiden coaster.
