Based on the bestselling biography: Entertainer Horst Lichter has barely had time to relax on his holiday when his mother calls him. In her own dry way, she tells him that she has been diagnosed with cancer and that things are not going well for her. Immediately Horst returns to his hometown with his wife Nada. Returning home brings back childhood memories - of a loving father and a mother who held the reins firmly in difficult situations. Horst tries his best to support his mother Margret - he organises doctor's appointments and tries to provide a little variety into her daily life, even though the relationship between mother and son has been strained for a long time: he counters his mother's edgy, frosty manner as he had learned to do when he was young. He emphasises the positive side of any situation and is always ready to respond with a snappy retort. When Margret learns how serious her illness really is, Horst begins to rethink his own life as well.
“The Crocodiles” are back and they are in for quite an adventure! Frank is seriously hurt and needs a liver donation. In order to save him, the gang needs to get Frank’s brother out of prison. Their plan is risky and the stakes are high.
Ganz Deutschland befindet sich im Kochwahn, ein teurer Herd hat mittlerweile mehr Prestige als ein neues Auto. Ganz Deutschland? Nicht ganz! Denn mitten im Rheinland, im kleinen Ort Rommerskirchen, sitzt ein Mann und sagt: „NEIN!“. Kochen soll nicht „in“ sein, sondern lecker! Horst Lichter nimmt in seiner liebenswert charmanten Art kein Blatt vor den Mund und sagt es, wie es ist: Früher passten alle gängigen Gewürze in eine Gewürztrommel, heute sind die Gewürzregale im Supermarkt so groß, dass man die Erdkrümmung sieht. Heute kochst du mit Sachen, die früher in den Schweineeimer kamen - und dann auch noch Sushi … Für einen Mann, für den alles Fleisch unter 400 Gramm Carpaccio ist, ist Sushi die ultimative Beleidigung - und vor allem: Wofür braucht eine Sushibar einen Herd?
