Jes Holtsø
Jes Holtsø (born 30 December 1956) is a Danish actor most notable for his role as Kjeld's son Børge in the ''Olsen-banden'' films. The reason that he was chosen to play Børge was actually his thick glasses, which became his characteristic. Later he played the Olsens' son (unrelated to the Olsen Gang), William Olsen in the Danish television series '' Huset på Christianshavn'' from 1970 to 1977 and the film based on the series ''Ballade på Christianshavn'' in 1971. As an adult Holtsø never pursued acting, though he did take part in the last Olsen Gang film, ''The Olsen Gang's Last Trick'', as the adult Børge. After having been a drug-addict and alcoholic for much of his youth, Holtsø is now clean, and has, himself, worked at an institution to help addicts. Since 2002, Holtsø has worked as a theater technician at the Royal Danish Theatre. In 2009, Holtsø competed as a singer in the Danish counterpart of ''Britain's Got Talent'', after which he released an album. In 2012, h ...

The Olsen Gang Never Surrenders
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers.
