–Rating:  3/10  
–Rating: ***
–Comment: I only noticed this boy in short Lederhosen with H-sytle suspenders. Not sure about the fabric. Brief scene. (I might have missed some other scenes).

So rating ~3 only.

I also found a handsome blonde, freckled boy (B&w) in Landarzt Dr. Brock (ep 13) but no Lederhosen. Maybe Lederhosen scenes in other episodes, some are in color.

Die Koblanks

 

Family series, 13 ep
–Year: 1979
–Year in film: 1880s  
–Country: Germany
–Who in clothing: boy, sailor suit, other hist. cl.
–Who in clothing 2: boy, pants with H-style suspenders, women
–Available on DVD: yes
–I own: no
–Clothing occurrence: low  
–Rating:  4/10  
–Rating: ****
–Comment: One boy in a short blue sailor suit (short blue collar, 3 stripes), a boy in a long Lederhosen style pants with H-style suspenders /at least in ep 7), some other boys in historical clothes and also few women in sailor-style dresses and lace collars. Not sure about their names. Also men in long leather aprons.

Set in Berlin in the 1880s. Starring Günther Pfitzmann and Wolfgang Völz. 

Interesting series, I think I have seen that in 1979. Unfortunately few scenes. Pic from ep 5. Another scene in ep 7 (dining). I think only full view in ep 5. Novel by Erdmann Graeser.

Nice setting, dialect and actors, but for the few scenes I can only give rating 4. I also prefer longer collars. Hair-style (of the boys) looks also more like the 1970s.
