TV4’s cunning tricks to solve the supervisor problem

Mauri Hermundsson and a party leader – in a minor car accident.
It happened during the recording of the TV4 program “Vem kan styra Mauri?”.
– We can say that there was shouting from the party leadership, says Mauri to Aftonbladet.
Mauri Hermundsson in the program “Vem kan styra Mauri?”, which premieres in August, will practice with the party leaders. This week, the last episode was recorded – and all the car trips hardly went without a hitch. On the contrary.
– Now I’m no longer worried about someone canceling. We can say that there was shouting from the party leadership. We were involved in a minor accident, says Mauri to Aftonbladet.
But he doesn’t want to reveal more details than that.
– It’s not every day you get to be part of a minor traffic accident with a party leader, or maybe even a future prime minister.
TV4’s clever solution
Until August 1, there is still a requirement that a supervisor must attend a supervisor training course in order to practice driving privately. It has TV4 solved by using a car with three seats in the front, so that even a driving school teacher can fit.
– It was only two and three or the party leaders who had supervisor training, and it is difficult to force them to attend such during an election year.
He states that the car was “damn hard to find”.
– We searched for quite a while. It’s a public bus, like. We found about the only three-seater that is also manual.
– There is a driving school teacher sitting next to us. When it’s really a crisis, he is there so as not to endanger their safety completely.
Focus on the person
Each episode of “Who Can Control Mauri?” will be around 20 minutes. In a press release at the beginning of July Mauri explained that the focus will be on the person and not just politics.
