Trivia
The injunction against the repetition of episode 5 also prevented the episode from being used on DVD. This order was obtained by Georg Haupt Bekleidungswerke GmbH in Lippstadt , as the editors of the series had given the series the name "Haupt" to one of the companies involved, which, in circumvention of the world textile trade agreement , traded shirts brought to the FRG via the GDR . At the beginning of 2010 an agreement was reached between the clothing company and the NDR. Under the condition that the information appears several times that all company names are fictitious, the decision was revoked.
