The individual football matches were even broadcast under the Nickelodeon flag (with promos and logos such as "Nickelodeon is Oranges"). Nickelodeon's regular programming was only occasionally interrupted for an evening, for a report and review of a football match. The television channel was therefore started as Talpa and that officially happened on Saturday, August 13, 2005. The first day was well viewed, but apart from the football broadcasts, the viewing figures of the other programming lagged behind the competition. Talpa managed to attract a large number of well-known television personalities: including Barend en Van Dorp, Linda de Mol (john de mol's sister), Jack spijkerman, Humberto Tan, Jan Mulder, Caroline Tensen, André Van Duin, Henny Huisman, and Others.
