Overview
Figure skating was his life, he died in the ice rink. Stefan Müller froze to death after being knocked down on the ice by a stranger. A case for the Cologne murder commission. Inspectors Max Ballauf and Freddy Schenk quickly realize that the former competitive athlete, trainer and judge didn't just have friends. The rumor mill is bubbling: there is talk of partisan judges' decisions. There are doping allegations and Müller is even accused of sexual abuse of minors. Above all, the ambitious mother of the ice skating student Jeanette doesn't mince her words. Ilona Hinze always felt disadvantaged by Müller and her daughter. On the other hand, he was completely fixated on his young model student Lily Wandhoven. In fact, Müller not only supported the girl professionally, but also financially together with his brother Martin Müller. Müller's wife Sonja and his son Peter confirm: After the death of his daughter in a traffic accident, Lily was his one and only for Stefan Müller. What's with the dirty rumours?
About the show
Tatort is a long-running German/Austrian/Swiss crime television series set in various parts of these countries. The show is broadcast on the channels of ARD in Germany, ORF 2 in Austria, and SF1 in Switzerland. The first episode was broadcast on November 29, 1970. The opening sequence for the series has remained the same throughout the decades, which remains highly unusual for any such long-running TV series to date. Each of the regional TV channels that together form ARD, plus ORF and SF, produces its own episodes, starring its own police inspector, some of which, like the discontinued Schimanski, have become cultural icons. The show appears on DasErste and ORF 2 on Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and currently about 30 episodes are made per year. As of March 2013, 865 episodes in total have been produced. Tatort is currently being broadcast in the United States on the MHz Worldview channel under the name Scene of the Crime.
