Kölner Treff is a talk show hosted by Bettina Böttinger on WDR television .
history
The program is based on a format presented by Alfred Biolek in 1973, Wer wird, geht zurück, which was presented 43 times in the Cologne cabaret and cabaret theater Senftöpfchen within two years. The first broadcast of the talk show developed by Hans-Joachim Hüttenrauch with the first moderators of the show, Dieter Thoma and Alfred Biolek, took place in January 1976. Although both saw themselves as “outsiders” in the entertainment sector, they brought their cabaret experience to the show and allowed themselves occasional dodges to comedy , which was viewed rather critically within the producing WDR. Dieter Thoma even had to justify himself to the WDR Broadcasting Council for a rather harmless Elvis Presley imitation . The Kölner Treff was one of the first talk shows in which not only celebrities but also private individuals had their say.
Biolek stayed on the talk show until 1980, Thoma until 1982. In 1978 Elke Heidenreich took over the moderation, in 1983 the program was stopped for the time being. On September 27, 1992, the WDR showed another cut with highlights from the show. The reason was the retirement of Dieter Thoma.
Since March 3, 2006 there has been a new edition of the Kölner Treff with Bettina Böttinger as moderator. Achim Winter also took part in the first three months . The talk show has since been recorded in the WDR studios in Cologne-Bocklemünd , and at times also in the Vulkanhalle in Cologne-Ehrenfeld . Susan Link and Micky Beisenherz have been acting as representatives since 2017, and have also been guiding the Cologne Summer Meeting since then .
Since October 8, 2019, the program has been running under the term TALK on Tuesday , every four weeks in the first alternating with 3 to 9 , the NDR Talk Show and Here speaks Berlin .
