Instead of the entertainer Günther Jauch, who was canceled due to Corona, RTL sent eight women into the race on Saturday evening at prime time.
Shortly after the live show "Because they don't know what's going to happen", eight female substitutes came into the studio, they all wore photo masks with the 64-year-old's face.
The eight substitute women who stood by Barbara Schöneberger and Thomas Gottschalk at short notice were gradually unmasked.
Jungle camp presenter Sonja Zietlow and dance trainer Motsi Mabuses (“Let's Dance”) were among the team at the games.
"We counted twice: We know that someone is missing," said Gottschalk at the beginning of the show.
Schöneberger added: “This older gentleman with the crooked blue jackets.
He didn't show up today. «At the improv show» Because they don't know what's going on «, one of the three Jauch-Schöneberger-Gottschalk teams usually takes on the moderation;
This time Gottschalk stepped into the ring - each supported by a Jauch substitute player.
Long-distance runner Sabrina Mockenhaupt-Gregor and TV actress Caroline Frier ("Sister, Sister") competed against him and the eight substitute Jauchs.
Gottschalk joked: "Nobody knows how difficult it is to live with Günther Jauch's face - except for Günther Jauch." In the course of the evening, a video switch to Jauch was planned.
