Munich was once a party stronghold. But that's a long time longer, thinks Michael Graeter, who used to never miss a break.
Munich – Gossip columnist Michael Graeter, role model for tabloid reporter Baby Schimmerlos in the cult series “Kir Royal”, mourns the sweet life in his home town of Munich.
“It has become a very slowed-down village. It used to be sexy in the 60s, 70s and 80s, ”the 80-year-old told the“ Augsburger Allgemeine ”. The city is ruled by people "who use pitchforks to stick out the enamel of this city".
He is also taking a tough stand with the policy of the corona measures. “You can say: the sweet life has been shut down. If (Franz Josef) Strauss were still alive, there would never have been such a lockdown. "
Graeter served as the "king of the gossip reporter" director Helmut Dietl as a model for the television series "Kir Royal". Meanwhile, however, he also renounces the wine drink. He now drinks three different juices every day: pomegranate, carrots and spinach. "This way I save myself the vegetables when eating." Dpa
