Munich “Tatort” commissars criticize austerity measures – SPIEGEL ONLINE

They are the oldest investigators in “Tatort”, the beginning of April as Franz Leitmayr and Ivo Batic celebrate silver wedding anniversary. However, shortly before the 25-anniversary of Munich “Tatort” commissars Udo Wachtveitl and Miroslav Nemec have lamented the increasing time and cost pressures during the shooting.

“We are now close to the limit of what is reasonable,” the 57-year-old Wachtveitl said in an interview the “Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung”. There is a point at which a product can not be better, but must be worse if you too save on the resources, the actor said. “And at this point we have long since arrived. This concerns money, and it relates to time.”

His colleague Nemec, 61, criticized the longer working hours. Just a few more days of shooting would relieve the team. “The days have become fewer, the hours for more.” It will now work with the motto: “The day has 24 hours, and if it was not enough, you take the night to do so.”

In the 25 years in which the two stood for ARD front of the camera, they have also turned not only good thrillers. The episode “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” in 1993 was “by far the most unpleasant history” was, Nemec said. But “He who dies twice” was “not been very doll”. Wachtveitl called the episode “song of dead things” in 2009 as a low point and called them Esoterik- “Tatort”.

On April 3 Wachtveitl and Nemec can show what they can, despite austerity measures. Then the anniversary episode “Mia san jetz there where it hurts” is broadcast.
