TV Tips on Saturday - TV Tips on Saturday
This Saturday at 8:15 PM, German viewers will have a wide choice of programmes across major channels. While entertainment shows and romantic comedies fill the schedule, one crime drama stands out—Munich Homicide: A Deadly Deception on ZDF, which explores the brutal attack on taxi driver Emily Hübner. The case has drawn attention due to its extreme violence and a key suspect under investigation.
Meanwhile, other broadcasters offer lighter fare, from music specials to family quizzes and star-studded game shows.
The attack on Emily Hübner shocked investigators due to its ferocity. Her father could only identify her by a tattoo, as her injuries were so severe. Detective Angelika Flierl has suggested the attacker was likely a man, given the level of violence used.
Ex-convict Anton Krall has emerged as the prime suspect. He was the last passenger in Hübner’s taxi before the assault, and forensic traces at the scene link him to the crime. Authorities are also examining possible ties to the darknet, though no further details have been released. While ZDF airs the crime drama based on the case, other channels present contrasting entertainment. Das Erste will broadcast *The Beatrice Egli Show*, a music programme featuring Maite Kelly, Heinz Rudolf Kunze, and Annett Louisan. RTL, meanwhile, offers *The Pumuckl Show*, a family quiz hosted by Tobi Krell with guests including Ingo Zamperoni and Ilka Bessin, where the mischievous Pumuckl character creates playful chaos. ProSieben’s *Beat the Star* pits host Sylvie Meis against entertainer Riccardo Simonetti in up to 15 challenges, with the winner claiming €100,000. Over on VOX, viewers can watch *Last Christmas*, a romantic comedy about Kate, a struggling dancer whose life changes after meeting Tom—a man with a hidden secret.
The investigation into Emily Hübner’s attack continues, with Anton Krall remaining the focus due to forensic evidence and his criminal history. The crime drama on ZDF will bring the case to a wider audience, while other networks provide lighter alternatives.
All four programmes—*Munich Homicide*, *The Beatrice Egli Show*, *The Pumuckl Show*, and *Beat the Star*—air simultaneously at 8:15 PM on Saturday, alongside VOX’s festive film.
