Het Is Weer Zo Laat!
''Het is weer zo laat!'' ("It's that time again!"), also known as ''Waldolala'', is a Dutch television show from 1978, written and directed by Wim T.

It was the last TV show written for Dolf Brouwers, who had played the character Sjef van Oekel in previous shows ('' De Fred Hachéshow'', '' Barend is weer bezig'', and '' Van Oekel's Discohoek''). The show ran for ten episodes, and featured Brouwers as Waldo van Dungen, formerly a waiter at the night club Waldolala, who had acquired the club after a rich woman (Gé Braadslee, played by Mimi Kok) fell in love with him and bought the place for him.
