IJf Blokker

IJf Blokker (born 2 September 1930) is a Dutch musician and television actor and presenter.

Blokker was born in Den Helder and studied drums at the Amsterdamse Muziekschool, and worked in a number of orchestras in the Netherlands and Germany, including the Snip en Snap Revue.

These shows, conceived, written, and directed by Wim van der Linden, Wim T. Schippers, Gied Jaspars, and Ruud van Hemert and aired on VPRO, caused consternation by having naked dancers and extras, cursing actors, and absurdist humor.

After the controversial scene in which Barend Servet interviewed Juliana of the Netherlands,[4] Blokker received angry letters and phone calls, even a bomb threat.

[5] Blokker had minor roles in the television shows Zeg 'ns Aaa, SamSam, Pompy de Robodoll, Seth & Fiona, and Filmpje!, and in the 1990 television production of the Herman Heijermans play Eva Bonheur.
