50 Minutes Inside: Who will replace Nikos Aliagas at the presentation?
After 16 long years as the program’s presenter, Nikos Aliagas is stepping down to take time for himself and let a new face run 50 Minutes Inside.
The identity of her successor, for yes it is indeed a woman who will take her place, was announced yesterday, Tuesday 24th May The Parisian.
The announcement of his departure from the show had caused a great uproar among his listeners. He had confessed his desire to retire from the program after spending all those years keeping it going Sandrine Quetierin an interview with puremedia April 25th.
He assures that he did not take this decision lightly and that this decision was carefully considered and that he was in agreement with it TF1. He justifies himself by saying that this show is “a big part of his life” and that he sacrificed 16 years for it. Nikos Aliagas therefore explains: “For 16 years I have been on the air on Saturdays at 5:50 p.m. and back at 1 a.m. That is much. I want to take time for myself, focus on other subjects and develop what I do more and more around photography.”
It was a heartbreaking farewell, both for his viewers, who had grown accustomed to him over the years of his presentation, and for Nikos Aliagas and the show’s production, as it is the one he has presented the longest of his career.
