The most beautiful moment
Daphne Agten has been in The smartest person then Erik Van Looy, she says. She was featured in the very first season, when Bruno Wyndaele was still presenting. As a thirteen-year-old, the actress was then allowed to ask a quiz question from the audience. “What do you know about Hamlet?” “I don’t remember exactly how I ended up in the studio, I think through a call. But I was already involved in theater at a young age and was very curious about how TV programs were made.”

The puzzle round is about having a ‘crush’ on someone. Daphne Agten: “I like to ask people which celebrity they have a crush on, that says a lot about someone.” Van Looy: “I’m thinking about it. Victor, do you ever have a crush?” Schelstraete quickly answers: “Jennifer Anniston.” To which Agten: “That is a red flag. That’s really the easy choice, Rachel Friends.” Schelstraete: “She’s just hot.” Agten: “Okay, it can be that simple of course.”
