Overview
- Host Kai Pflaume led the annual recap with a rateteam of Günther Jauch, Barbara Schöneberger, Jan Josef Liefers and title defender Florian Silbereisen.
- Silbereisen balked at a slime‑covered snail race stunt before completing it fastest at 29 seconds, topping Liefers, Jauch and Schöneberger.
- The London Vegetable Orchestra performed, and Schöneberger surprised viewers by coaxing clear tones from a carrot, drawing praise from Pflaume.
- Pflaume’s on‑air use of the phrase “fette Props” prompted a teasing rejoinder from Schöneberger, adding to the show’s lighthearted tone.
- Questions revisited 2025 headlines such as Germany’s new government, President Donald Trump’s second-term start and the Louvre jewel incident, with guest appearances by Inger Nilsson plus satirists Fabian Köster and Lutz van der Horst; coverage did not confirm the overall quiz winner or a fourth title for Silbereisen.
