Dennis Siva Lie new host of Good evening Norway
Marte Bratberg is back from maternity leave, and together with Dennis Siva Lie will lead “Good evening Norway”‘s digital initiative.
Dennis Siva Lie was in this year’s season of “Kompani Lauritzen” on TV 2, and in recent years has been the host of the children and youth program “Newton”. Now he enters a somewhat unknown terrain.
– I thought: “Shit, can I do this here then?”. I have to fill some big so in a big program, but I was very happy when I was asked to be the host. I’m really looking forward to working with Marte, says Lie.
We have become well acquainted with Dennis through his participation in “Kompani Lauritzen”. The program throws many of the participants into deep water, and they come up in situations you are not usually exposed to. Something that can come in handy in the new role.
– I’ll probably be put in some situations I’ve never been in before, and that’s exactly what I need, Dennis continues.
“Good evening Norway” has visited many exciting and exclusive guests, and for Lie is especially a guest who had been the dream.
– Yes, it must be Nima Shahinian, Norway’s potential first astronaut.
In the last year, Sophie Elise Isachsen, as well as Martine Lunde and Aleksander Sæterstøl, have acted as substitutes for Bratberg, who has been on leave.
Now she is very ready to return to work with her new partner.
-I’m really looking forward to coming back to work, and I like Dennis very much, so this is really cool. What’s cool is that we’re from the same place. Namely Vestby, and we have had the same gym teacher, says Bratberg.
TV 2’s program editor, Kathrine Haldorsen, is pleased with the signing of the new host.
– We are very happy to have secured Dennis Siva Lie as the new host. He has extensive experience from “Newton”, and together with Marte Bratberg they will form a very good team as program managers for “Good evening Norway”, says Haldorsen.
Next Saturday, the “Golden Route” will be launched in Bergen, and both Dennis Siva Lie and Marthe Bratberg will be seen on the red carpet.
