Television - HR ends "Tatort" with Broich and Koch

Filming for the last Frankfurt "Tatort" with the investigative team Janneke and Brix - Margarita Broich and Wolfram Koch - has been completed. After almost ten years and 19 cases, Broich (63) and Koch (61) are saying goodbye to Frankfurt and the audience together, as the ARD broadcaster Hessischer Rundfunk (HR) announced on Tuesday. The last episode will be shown in the second half of 2024. Who will follow in the Frankfurt "Tatort" will be decided at the beginning of 2024, HR explained. It is certain that investigations will continue in the Main metropolis and the surrounding area.

"We would like to thank Margarita Broich and Wolfram Koch for a wonderful time together, during which they shaped Frankfurt'sTatort. Filming with them always felt like a family coming together," explained film producer Jörg Himstedt.

Their latest case, entitled "Es grünt so grün, wenn Frankfurts Berge blüh'n", is about Tristan Grünfels (Matthias Brandt), a psychologist and victim counselor for the Frankfurt police, who keeps having blackouts and talking to himself. When he leaves for his practice one morning, he kills a police officer. Due to a misunderstanding, Grünfels of all people becomes the victim's counselor for the relatives - and thus accompanies Janneke and Brix in the murder investigation. The "Tatort" episode is expected to be broadcast in the second half of 2024 and is a production by Hessischer Rundfunk on behalf of ARD Degeto.

"Wolfram and I have known each other from the theater for many years, and filming the Frankfurt "Tatort" with him was pure pleasure," explained Broich. Now it's time to say goodbye to Frankfurt, "because we want to set off again, other projects, more theater and for me also more photography and a little more time for the grandchildren," said the actress.

Koch added that a "very nice, year-long journey" was coming to an end, during which the courageous editorial team had repeatedly pushed through very unusual film projects. "Now it's time for new journeys - I'm looking forward to it!"
