TV 2 has commissioned Denmark Stands Together, a special entertainment show from Banijay Group company Nordisk Film TV that is set to air this Saturday.

The special broadcast event is all about moral support and unity in this worldwide crisis. Denmark Stands Together will see hosts Natasja Crone, Puk Elgård and Anders Breinholt broadcast live from two makeshift studios, Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen being the main location. Out in the open and with six feet between them, they will talk to well-known and unknown Danes who are doing something special in these unprecedented times. Sharing stories from all over the country, there will also be the opportunity to say “thank you” to the many who are making a difference in the country right now. The show will bring live “at-home” Danish performances from major Danish artists.

“In recent weeks, TV 2’s focus and public service efforts have naturally been about delivering the Danes news and information about the guidelines we must follow,” said TV 2’s program director, Lotte Lindegaard. “Now it must also be about saying thank you for being there when it really counts—and for keeping your head up and standing together in these difficult times. Although we cannot physically gather, we need something to bring us together. At TV 2, we will, in our own way, open the closed doors. It is important that we forge a bond between ourselves at home and the many who deserve great thanks for their efforts when they care for the sick and the old, when they help the vulnerable in everyday life, or when they pick up our trash, complete store jobs, and generally make society work.”
