The strong performance of the man from central Switzerland was met with a huge response. And he convinced the "Wetten, dass..?" producers at ZDF so much that he was hired as a field reporter several more times. Whenever I met Frank Elstner in Luxembourg or Germany long afterwards, he would always ask me: "How is that crazy Zurfluh doing?" Frank will also miss Kurt.
Kurt Zurfluh not only worked hard and well, he china rcs data also liked to party often - and in his younger years he really let off some steam. on party benches on Sunday mornings and then present on TV in the evening. I remember how he presented "Sport aktuell" one evening in a beige suede jacket with a sheepskin collar. "What's that outfit for?" the viewers asked themselves. The answer to the riddle: Kurt didn't have a coat in his TV dressing room. His bosses and the TV audience were happy to forgive the charmer.
There is no other year group like this: around 40 Swiss people from the media, politics, theatre and show business were born in 1950, including me. That's why we wanted to organize a big party for our 40th birthday in 1990. The only colleague from abroad who would have been invited was Thomas Gottschalk, who was also 50 years old. "But I want to be there too!" Kurt said to me at the time. When I pointed out to him in a friendly way that he was born in 1949, he said sheepishly: "Yes, but I'm only four months older than you..." Because we started preparing too late, the event didn't take place.
