Additional information

Einer wird gewinnen = One Will Win

Einer wird gewinnen
was a very famous game show hosted by German TV personality Hans-Joachim Kulenkampff. The abbreviation "EWG" is the same as for "Europäische Wirtschafts-Gemeinschaft" (European Economic Community) - the predecessor of the European Union. So the quiz-show had candidates from different European countries: eight competitors from different countries played in four rounds for the main prize. The series ran for three months from 25 January 1964 to 1998 on Saturday evenings and contains 92 Episodes.

On this episode Frida performed Here We'll Stay and I Know There's Something Going On.

Other artist on this episode:

  1. Zupfgeigenhansel (Folk Group) sang two songs
  2. Theatre scene (Eva Kotthaus, Edith Volkmann, Ruth Niehaus)
  3. Comedy sketch: Robin Hood made a mistake.

As Frida does not appear with the host and did not appear at the end-scene, her performances were most likely pre-recorded (perhaps at the same time as Bananas performance in May 1983) and inserted into the live broadcast.
