Content and broadcasts
In Back then we are looking for a special year between 1950 and the last year before the current program. At the beginning of a broadcast, Wolfgang Lippert asks viewers what year they are looking for for the competition. The year you are looking for is presented using music, television programs and their actors or other artistic contributions such as sketches or the like. In addition, the top news of the year, especially from politics and sport, appear in television programs and contemporary witnesses, mostly artists, tell of the special experiences in each year. In the "hit story", an artist is interviewed about his hit of the year sought. Since 2016, reporter Bürger Lars Dietrich has also presented the technical or fashion trends of the year in question in the “Bürgerertrend”.
In addition to the monthly TV broadcasts, 30 extra issues have been broadcast so far, for example it was Easter or similar news.
