Andrea Gerhard is no longer part of the “Bergdoktor” crew.
The actress has already commented on the ZDF expulsion - now her TV colleague Ronja Forcher is also speaking out.
Berlin – A few days ago, series fans received the sad certainty: actress Andrea Gerhard (40) will no longer be part of the ZDF “Bergdoktor” in the future.
The series favorite has already spoken out on Instagram.
Fellow actress Ronja Forcher (27), who plays the daughter of TV doctor Hans Sigl (54) in the popular Alpine series, also comments on Gerhard's expulsion from ZDF - and speaks plainly.
“It’s part of the job”: “Bergdoktor” star Ronja Forcher on Andrea Gerhard’s series exit
The “Bergdoktor” expulsion came as a surprise to Andrea Gerhard, the Marburg native said via Instagram shortly after the station’s announcement.
But TV colleague Ronja Forcher doesn't find the end of the series all that surprising.
In an interview with
t-online
, the actress says that she can understand the writing of the series role in a certain way.

“Unfortunately, it is part of the job that roles are swapped,” says Ronja Forcher in an interview.
As an actor you always have to expect to be taken out of the story.
The broadcaster also argues this and says about Andrea Gerhard's ZDF exit: "With the development of new impulses for the narrative arc of the horizontal story, ZDF and production have decided, in agreement with the actress, not to continue the role."
First episode of the 17th season: “Der Bergdoktor” started with a solid market share
The first episode of the latest “Bergdoktor” season unfortunately only came in second place in the ratings race on January 4, 2024 – closely followed by “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?”, as
dwdl.de
reported.
With a market share of 19.7 percent and an average of 5.52 million viewers among the total audience, the ZDF Alpine series only catapulted itself to second place in the rankings.
Ronja Forcher will miss her “Bergdoktor” colleague Andrea Gerhard
Even if Ronja Forcher has now gotten over her co-actor's exit from “Bergdoktor”, she will miss her series colleague.
“Of course that makes me sad because I will miss Andrea at the Wilder Kaiser.
We will definitely continue to be friends, that's for sure."
