Acting
Axel Milberg's spectacularly uncomfortable physical comedy and deadpan delivery.
Writing
Medical mysteries that actually make sense, wrapped in social disaster.
Production
North Sea coast location so moody it deserves billing as a character.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This German adaptation softened Martin's abrasiveness compared to the British original — German audiences apparently found the original 'too mean.'
The fictional village of Neustadt am Rübenberge is actually multiple North Sea locations, and locals still do location tours.
