Norwegian television personality who, while studying medicine (and
ending up a full fledged doctor of medicine in 1980) worked at NRK
(Norwegian National Broadcasting Network) and through hosting a series
of educational and entertaining shows for kids and youths in the 1970s
became an icon to a generation of Norwegians. Today he is considered
one of the best loved comedians, writers, TV hosts, recording artists
and doctors (!) in Norway, a legend in his own time.
