For a special double episode of the Dutch tv programme 'Netwerk' we were asked to supply the production with a courier who could cycle on a bicycle with wooden tires to show the important work done by these women for Walraven van Hall. This man was the banker of the resistance.
We of course were happy to help, we send them actress Marloes who brought her own authentic clothes, paperwork, a bag full with documents to smuggle past the Germans and we arranged a bicycle with wooden tires.

This episode was broadcasted on the 11th and 13th of februari on Channel 1
