Overview

• ProSieben’s BBC-licensed format concluded on October 6 with Alessia Herren crowned after a finale built on recycled questions from earlier episodes.
• The last three contestants were Alessia Herren, Mario Basler and Calvin Kleinen, with Kleinen exiting first after answering more correctly than his rivals.
• Final rounds showcased high-profile missteps, including Herren guessing a cube has twelve sides and Basler calling Africa a country.
• The deciding prompt about Pippi Longstocking’s house name saw Basler write “Villa Kunterbunt” as Herren offered only “Kunterbunt.”
• Hosts Amira Aly and Christian Düren presented the tongue-in-cheek prize as Herren joked about her performance, Basler offered supportive words, and Kleinen said he was not proud of finishing third.
