Florian Silbereisen Makes ARD Quiz Debut Hosting 'Die große Maus-Show' on Saturday

Stepping in for Esther Sedlaczek during her parental leave, he says a red “lucky” gift from Barbara Schöneberger will steady his nerves.

Overview

  • The one-off episode airs Saturday at 20:15 on ARD as part of the WDR-produced family quiz.
  • Silbereisen calls it his first time hosting a quiz on the channel and notes there is “no second chance” for this single appearance.
  • Confirmed guests include Wincent Weiss, Annette Frier, Jörg Pilawa, Motsi Mabuse, Michael Mittermeier and Andy Borg.
  • He plans to wear a red lucky underwear for the broadcast, a tradition he has followed at ARD live shows since 2004 with this pair gifted for his 20-year milestone.
  • WDR says the iconic Cologne Maus statue, damaged by arson in late July, has been repaired and returned to its spot ahead of the show.
