Barbara Schöneberger takes over “Do you understand fun?” and moderates everything else that is on TV. Your secret of success? She hands it out, takes it, and laughs the loudest of them all.

The Studio H in Berlin-Adlershof. Dancers are sweeping across the stage in the fog, the choreographer is not entirely satisfied, dance more compactly, please. Break. The cameramen stretch their legs, mumbling in the studio. The director says sternly into her microphone: “I would like to have complete peace during the rehearsals with Barbara.” At some point, only the ventilation hums. Barbara Schöneberger comes in, gets wired – and first goes to the crew: “I’m the new one!” She calls. “And I’ll tell you: It’s all about the quota, nothing sexual today!” The moderator laughs out loud and dances to the stage. Adlershof joins in the laughter. The tone is set. With absolute calm, that will no longer be the case today.
