Double bad luck for “The Geissens”: Robert’s boat crash calls the police into action
Actually “everything is going well at the moment”, as Carmen Geiss, 57, reveals in the new episode of “Die Geissens”. In a Preview for the show On May 9, 2022, her husband Robert Geiss, 58, announced that the two were traveling with his beloved boat “Donzi” off the southern Keys Islands in the US state of Florida. Robert is looking forward to lunch at a special restaurant and his fishing trip. But before that, the self-made millionaire has to bring his luxury ship ashore – and that’s where the mess begins. As RTLZWEI announces, he initially gets stuck in a sandbank with the motorboat, then the engine briefly goes on strike.
However, the crowning catastrophe follows in the island’s harbor: while Robert is trying to maneuver the ship to the jetty to dock there, another boat crashes! The result is a big dent in the moored catamaran and a big scratch in the “D” of the “Donzi”. While onlookers on the shore reacted with a great shock, Robert first of all bubbled out the accusations towards his wife: “Yes, watch out here! You’re standing there. Why aren’t you looking?” But he seems to be more worried about the onlookers than about the damage: “Very embarrassing docking maneuver.” He doesn’t get too annoyed about it after all. “Shit happens, we have insurance for that,” he concludes. And Carmen also takes it easy: “Where there is planing, there are also shavings,” she says with a shrug. However, the two are not off the hook yet. Because while the millionaire couple is looking forward to their lunch on the island, police officers from the coast guard appear to assess the damage to the catamaran. Means for Robert and Carmen: The food has to wait.
Action at “ZDF-Fernsehgarten” takes viewers too long
The fans of Andrea Kiewel, 56, have been waiting for this for months: finally the “ZDF TV Garden” has opened its doors again and promises the best entertainment on Sunday afternoons all summer long. But the start of the season on May 8, 2022 apparently caused some viewers to show signs of fatigue. “My eyes are closing” was an example read on Twitter.
The literal boredom apparently triggered an actually spectacular-sounding action, which, however, was a long time coming: parachutists were announced, who would jump over the Lerchenberg in Mainz and form a diamond formation. But the promising spectacle was delayed and had to be bridged by a lengthy expert discussion. “The following broadcasts are postponed by thirty minutes”, one user scoffed on twitter. “Far too much gossip”, said another viewer his displeasure. A test of patience, which was compensated a little later with the promised aerial performance and not least with musical flights of fancy: Maite Kelly, 42, Luca Hänni, 27, Beatrice Egli, 33, Glasperlenspiel and Giovanni Zarrella, 44, brought the opening show to its usual entertaining level and whetted the appetite for a fruitful season in the “ZDF TV Garden”.
