Bassie and Adriaan (born Bas and Aad van Toor) are a popular
clown and
acrobat duo who had their own television series, taped between
1976 and
1993 and are still
household names in both
the Netherlands and
Belgium. Prior to their television adventures Bassie and Adriaan were successful acrobats (The Crocksons) performing in circuses
home and abroad. The first three series feature a parrot called Sweety as the first in a row of non-human
sidekicks, it was
subsequently replaced by Lara (Adriaan's dog, who died in 1992) and Robin, a
robot born out of Bassie's attempt to fix a radio and an alarm clock. Bassie and Adriaan were long time
fixtures on public broadcaster
TROS but from the early Nineties on re-runs of the series were shown on commercial children's channel Kindernet; it's follow-up, the Dutch version of the
American children's channel
Nickelodeon continued to do so.
