Second season: The film is currently being shot in North Rhine-Westphalia, the new episodes about a factory heiress and her family will be broadcast in 2023.

Two years ago, around six million viewers watched the economic miracle mini-series “Our Wonderful Years” with stars such as Katja Riemann, Anna Maria Mühe, Hans-Jochen Wagner and Ludwig Trepte. ARD is now continuing the series that was broadcast in March 2020 as a three-part series in double episodes.

Filming is currently underway for the second season of the so-called WDR/ARD Degeto Event series, based on the novel by Peter Prange, as the first announced on Wednesday. The broadcast of the six episodes of 45 minutes each is planned for 2023.

The new episodes will again be shot in North Rhine-Westphalia, for example in Dormagen, Gummersbach, Mönchengladbach, Rommerskirchen and Cologne. They continue to tell the story, which began in the 1940s and 1950s, of the factory owner Christel Wolf (Riemann), her three daughters and their children in the 1960s – around the 1968 upheavals.
