Huis Lelieveld S1
In the series finale of Ouboet & Wors, Molly (Lizz Meiring) lost her job as a dentist’s assistant when her employer decided to emigrate. The spin-off series, Huis Lelieveld, sees Molly take up a position as the new matron at a retirement home filled with quirky staff and zany residents.
Look out for familiar favourites from the long-running original hit comedy series, like Wors (Willie Esterhuizen, who is also this series’ creator), Gielie Goosen (Wynand van Vollenstee), and Tannie Poppie (Hélène Truter).
“In this new series, viewers will see that golden oldies are just young people inhabiting older bodies,” says Willie. “They’re still as involved with all kinds of mischief and antics.”
