Wat blijftActrice Linda van Dyck (18 mei 1948-17 december 2023)Linda van Dyck kwam uit een acteursnest: haar ouders acteerden allebei en haar stiefvader was de beroemde Ko van Dijk. Ze maakte haar debuut in de speelfilm, ze werd bekend door haar rollen in 'Twee vorstinnen en een vorst', 'Ciske de Rat' en ‘Ademloos’, maar veroverde later ook mooie rollen op het toneel. Ze werkte hard en serieus, totdat ze eerst een burn-out kreeg en vervolgens in 2021 een herseninfarct. Ze raakte deels verlamd. In Wat Blijft volgt Peter Blom haar spoor terug en praat met collega-vriend Jeroen Krabbé, toneelcritica Hanny Alkema van Trouw en Linda’s zoon Jamie Trenité.2024-03-2436 min
