Rudolf Prack plays the title role as the countryside-doctor in a small village on the heath in Lower-Saxony. Strangely the series turns to colour half way (colourised or real?). A fine and cosy atmosphere is created with such characters as the burgomaster (KURT GROSSKURTH) and Opa Stockmann (Henry Vahl), both semi-regulars. There are some notable guest appearances by Viktor Staal (in the thirties a leading man in German cinema), Heinrich Gretler (the Swiss "Heimatfilm"-regular) and even a young Horst Janson (yes, "Captain Kronos", the vampirehunter!).
THIS TIME RIGHT!
