Country: Germany
Who in clothing: boy, Lederhosen ?

Clothing occurrence: very low  
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.

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.

Happy Easter!

 


 Happy Easter to all my readers!

Maybe someone is also interested in my recent find for my school TV blog.

Clothing occurrence: low * 
Rating:  3/10 ? 
Rating: ***
Comment: Blonde son Thomas in longer Lederhosen with H-style suspenders (overlapping suspenders on front). Also sitting playing accordeon. But rather few scenes. Pic from recent episode s3e4. Set on a dairy farm in Nußdorf am Inn (Bavaria).

Ep 12. Kulinarische Schätze von der Ostsee bis zum Alpenvorland – Handgemachter Käse aus dem Inntal.

Please note that this is a new subseries Kulinarische Schätze. So not to be confused with season 3 of the main series (and obviously different than that series, available on DVD). The main series derived from a Swiss one. And there are also crossover series Land & Lecker.

Has been aired 2 or 3 days ago. Available on the ardmediathek (channel BR and WDR).
