Erinnerungen an "Wetten, dass ..?": Oberpfälzer Nase an Nase mit Thomas Gottschalk

Im Dezember 2014 lief nach mehr als 30 Jahren die letzte Show der Reihe "Wetten, dass ..?" im ZDF. Jetzt, zum 40. Geburtstag der Sendung, teilen zwei Oberpfälzer ihre Erinnerungen an ihre Erlebnisse hinter den Kulissen.
