Overview
- During the Jan. 6 3‑Millionen‑Euro‑Woche episode, Leonard Sträter showed a photo of a keyring labeled “Dr. Jauch,” tying it to the host’s early years in Münster.
- Günther Jauch reacted with disbelief on air and confirmed his father Ernst‑Alfred held a doctoral title.
- Sträter said the photo was obtained “über viele Umwege,” and studio chatter suggested the keys could be for the cellar rather than the apartment door.
- Sträter reached €16,000 and qualified for Friday’s finale under the week’s format requiring that threshold.
- Former million‑euro winner Dr. Leon Windscheid accompanied Sträter in the audience, adding a notable connection to past WWM moments.
