The murder of a baby occupies the star lawyer Anna Conti in “Conti – My Two Faces” (Das Erste). ZDF shows “The Beatrice Egli Show” with many musical guests. In addition, Vin Diesel is looking for a super weapon in “xXx: The Return of Xander Cage” (Sat.1).

The singer Elisabeth “Liz” Jordan (Larissa Sirah Herden) is said to have killed her baby Zara. Her defense becomes a comeback for the former star lawyer Anna Conti (Désirée Nosbusch). In the trial of the murder of little Zara, Conti faces her former trainee Henry Mahn (Malaya Stern Takeda). It is the first case for the young prosecutor. He is exploited by the press, and the accused is ruthlessly (pre-)convicted.

Ten stars from all walks of life appear in oversized, elaborate costumes that make them completely unrecognizable. One can only speculate about the identity of the prominent undercover singers.

8:15 p.m., ONE, The Denmark crime thriller: Bloodline crime thriller
Closing off a crime scene in the forest with a man’s corpse – that underwhelms Ida Sörensen (Marlene Morreis). Until the homicide squad arrives from Copenhagen, the patrol officer confidently expands her job. To the chagrin of her conspicuously bad-tempered colleague Magnus Vinter (Nicki von Tempelhoff), she begins to investigate on her own. The fact that Horik Holm (Luca Kruse) was executed with two Viking arrows astonishes inspector Frida Olsen (Katharina Heyer) as well as the family background: The victim is the son of an underworld boss who comes from the tranquil coastal region!
