Sien Eggers

No one is so inextricably bound up with the Flemish television landscape as Sien Eggers. The seventy-year-old actress is engraved in the collective memory thanks to legendary characters such as Lydia Protut in 'Het eiland', butcher's wife Liliane in 'Van vlees en bloed' and Ria Goudezeune in 'Eigen kweek'. Her unforgettable one-liners from 'In de gloria' are still quoted in many a Flemish household. Eggers also played in numerous theatre productions of, among others, the KVS, hetpaleis and HETGEVOLG. Her inimitable career will soon be celebrating a golden jubilee, and a Lifetime Achievement Award seems the perfect gift for it.
