15 years after their last case together, Jochen Horst and Ludger Pistor are again playing in their star roles as Balko and Krapp in the Ufa fiction production “Balko Teneriffa”. Shooting for the multi-part action comedy film series, which is to be broadcast on RTL from 2022, was on October 21. As Ufa Fiction further announced in Berlin, the cult duo is now investigating in Tenerife and is getting support from Commissioner Alicia Ruiz (Tamara Romera Ginés). The production is a new edition of the successful crime comedy series “Balko”. Between 1995 and 2006 it had more than six million viewers at RTL, and there were eight seasons with 120 episodes in total.

The cult series was best known for its dry humor and bizarre cases and the main actors Jochen Horst and Ludger Pistor were awarded several prizes.

In the reboot, the two will again take on the roles of the cool, but also daring Balko and the always correct Krapp and together the former investigator duo will go on the hunt for criminals again. However, with two main differences: The series heroes have gotten older and instead of Dortmund, the popular Canary Island Tenerife will be the scene of the new edition. “The turquoise blue Atlantic, but also the impressive volcanic landscapes and nature reserves next to exciting cities like Santa Cruz form a unique and diverse backdrop,” says Ufa Fiction.
