Lelle Modig returns to TV4 after twelve years away from television. The 74-year-old reporter will start his comeback on Midsummer Eve. He worked at TV4 for twenty-three years before leaving the show during 2013. Modig became famous as the flying reporter who traveled across Sweden for news stories. He says he missed working on television during his retirement.

TV4 hired Modig when the channel first started broadcasting during 1990. He became well-known for reporting live from different places around the country. One Christmas story about wrapping trees made him internet famous many times over. The Estonia disaster coverage marked one of his most serious reporting assignments. Modig won the Guldkrattan prize during 2011 for his journalism skills.

Modig hosted another show called Lelle Knocks where he visited people for breakfast. Hockey player Börje Salming served him oatmeal porridge at his Vaxholm home. The retired reporter says he mostly missed meeting new people during his time off. He wants to travel around Sweden again and cover interesting stories. TV4 has not announced exactly what assignments Modig will handle this summer.
