Commissioner Dobranski is the title of a completed twelve-part detective - radio drama series for adults by and with Konrad Halver , in Hamburg plays.

Framework story and characters

The main character in the series is Commissioner Horst Günther Dobranski, who is investigating from the Davidwache on St. Pauli in Hamburg and lives in an apartment in Hamburg-Altona . He has a rough shell and his pistol at hand quickly , but at the same time a soft core, especially when it comes to human fate. Dobranski is a down-to-earth, northern German guy: In the aftermath of the death of a suitor , he cooks his favorite dish several times, fried grützwurst with applesauce . During the lunch break he likes to get himself a fish sandwich and watches repetitions of the series Judge Barbara Salesch . He is supported by his partner and colleague Tom Hansen as a Hamburg original; the two share a love-hate relationship that is characterized by both taunts and reliability. The team is complemented by a forensic technician who is only known by his nicknameRocket ” because he delivers quick results and who speaks the Berlin dialect . Dobranski is by his wife Marianne, who alone in the formerly shared apartment in Hamburg-Eilbek lives, divorced , but has regularly regain contact with her and she would actually like for themselves. He is the father of a son named "Theo"; "Two children" or "a daughter and a son" are mentioned in some summaries of the Dobranski series, but these two representations are not covered by the statements in the episodes. In the episode The Fourth Man , Dobranski mentions that his son is gay and has just moved in with his friend Georg. The couple separated in the death of a suitor and Theo moved in with his father. The good relationship between father and son is evidenced by a saying by Dobranski in the episode The False French : “My son Theo is gay and that's a good thing!” Dobranski's mother is addressed by everyone, including her son, only as “Grandma Else”. She lives in a retirement home . Thematically, the cases of the Dobranski series deal with drug offenses , murder , organized crime and robbery in the big city, especially in the Kiez , but also in other parts of the city as well as in Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein .

Reference to realism and contradictions

Although the brands that appear in all 12 radio plays ( Aurora-Mehl , Bild-Zeitung , Budapest shoes, Diesel jeans , Salzbrenner sausages from Hamburg), Orte ( Gänsemarkt , Moldauhafen , Planten un Blomen ) and shops ( Hansebäcker Junge , branch of Deutsche Bank in Hamburg-Hamm , Kiezkneipe and boxing cellar “ Zur Ritze ”) are named with their real names, there are also misrepresentations and inconsistencies in the radio play series. So the Based at the Davidwache real Commissariat 15 is the criminal investigation for a ground area of only 0.92 square kilometers jurisdiction. With around 14,000 inhabitants, it is the smallest in Europe and only includes the red light area of ​​the Hamburg district of St. Pauli. However, Dobranski determined without any jurisdiction in the entire city of Hamburg and even in the Herold Center in Norderstedt , which lies behind the state border in Schleswig-Holstein. As a result, family ties called "rocket" from a crime scene in Winsen an der Luhe in Lower Saxony, where in reality no official from Hamburg should be active due to the state sovereignty . In addition, there is no political office of a city ​​council in Hamburg, since the city-state is a unified municipality and the functions of an intermediate administrative level are performed by the district offices and the state authorities at the senate level. As a result Elena Dobranski waits for the Hamburg city cleaning service , who is supposed to remove the consequences of a shooting in an apartment , although in reality these activities are carried out by commercial crime scene cleaners and not the garbage disposal. While Horst Dobranski and Tom Hansen clearly speak Missingsch and their colleague “Rakete” apparently comes from Berlin , Dobranski's mother “Oma Else” has a Rhineland dialect for which there is no justification in the series.

Origin, productions and discontinuation of the series

The Kommissar Dobranski series is a production by Konrad Halver, who has been responsible for radio play productions since the 1960s, such as a Winnetou series on the Europa label , and from 1972 onwards by PEG , a radio play label of BASF at the time . Most of the Dobranski episodes are designed as reports from Dobranski's point of view, who tells the plot in monologue form , accompanied by suitable sound effects . Short dialogue scenes in the style of classic radio plays with several speakers alternate with it. Almost all of the episodes begin with Dobranski getting a newspaper and two paper cups of coffee to take away in his traditional tobacco shop in the morning and end with the owner Heinz asking him if Hamburg is safe again, to which Dobranski "For the time being, Heinz, for the time being!" replied.

Initially, the series started as a low-budget production of "Audiobooks-on-demand Hamburg" (ABOD Hamburg) with distribution through tobacco shops and newspaper kiosks in Northern Germany. From episode 9, the audio division of Bastei-Lübbe-Verlag took over the production and simultaneously released two editions with collection boxes of the previous episodes (1 to 4 and 5 to 8). From 2012 to 2017, episodes 1 to 8 were published by Medienverlag Kohfeldt.

The episode Die Balkan-Connection was performed in 2007 and 2010 as a live radio play in Hamburg's Imperial Theater and in Kino 3001 . In the same year there was also The Fourth Man as a live performance in the Imperial Theater . The episode The Wrong French was also performed at the Imperial Theater in 2009, this time with an introduction by Lotto King Karl . In all live productions, despite restrictions due to his progressive cancer , Halver took on the role of Commissioner Dobranski; the performances were sold out; according to media reports, extra chairs were sometimes placed in the auditorium.

After Halver's death in autumn 2012, the series was discontinued and the domain www.dobranski.de switched off.
