If I've counted correctly, Germans can/could watch Dinner for One (The 90th Birthday) 14 times today on different TV channels, between 9:40 and 23:40, and also nine times in different German dialects, including Schwiizerdütsch.
And this year there is a big show on two channels, celebrating the 60th anniversary of Dinner for One.
Very strange folks, the Germans.
Well, judge for yourself.

I hear that 90000 (in words: ninety thousand) earth-dwellers – LGBTQIA plus all those genders still to discover, and, believe it or not, even a few women and men) – from this and that continent and many an island swam and walked in a climate-neutral way to Dubai to act as world saviours.
And that's exactly what they did for 14 days in air-conditioned rooms and on full board. Acting.
So let's enjoy a climate of peace on earth, now and forever.

Typo in the title?
Nah. It's just that I would not let a tiny T spoil an avantgardistic alliteration.
Doctrine
Beat the drum and don't be afraid,
And kiss the sutler!
That is the whole science,
That is the deepest meaning of books.
Drum the people out of their sleep,
Drum Reveille with the vigour of youth,
Always march ahead drumming,
That is the whole of science.
That is Hegel's philosophy,
That is the deepest meaning of books!
I have grasped it because I am clever,
And because I am a good drummer.
Heinrich Heine (13 December 1797 – 17 February 1856)
