Patrick Kurtz, proprietor of Kurtz Detective Agency Münster, was heard on 08.10.2015 in a telephone interview on the Morning Show of Antenne Münster with Eva Tanski and Henrik Hanses. The segment is an edited compilation of a longer conversation recorded in advance.
Henrik Hanses: “Next Saturday evening, you will not even have to leave your home for gripping entertainment – it will come directly to you: a new Wilsberg crime episode will be broadcast on ZDF. Once again, the private detective solves murder cases using the wildest methods. It will certainly be amusing, but to be honest, Wilsberg is often a little unrealistic.”
Eva Tanski: “Someone who ought to know is Patrick Kurtz. He is a private detective in Münster and therefore something of a ‘real Wilsberg’. We do not have him on the line undercover now: Mr Kurtz, exciting cases, murders and so on – does the life of a private detective in Münster really look like that?”
Patrick Kurtz: “We do regularly have exciting cases, murders rather less so, but plenty of infidelity.”
Eva Tanski: “Who contacts you? Are they completely ordinary people?”
Patrick Kurtz: “Most of them are indeed ‘ordinary’. We sometimes receive somewhat unusual callers – certainly. We have a rule of thumb: anyone who calls after 10 pm is either drunk or otherwise disturbed – at least in most cases. But during the day, of course, we have entirely normal callers. These are people with genuine problems that need to be resolved. And Kurtz Investigations Münster is naturally pleased to assist.”
Eva Tanski: “What was the most bizarre case you have ever investigated?”
Patrick Kurtz: “In Münsterland, it was not very long ago that a woman suspected her husband of having affairs. I should add that both were already retired. For several nights nothing happened, but on the final day of surveillance, a group entered the house. They were clearly prostitutes. One prostitute was transsexual, the other was a typical adult film star type. They then went into the retiree’s house, and one can of course imagine what they were doing there.”
Eva Tanski: “The wild retired residents of Münster – it is hard to believe! Thank you, Patrick Kurtz, and continued success in your investigations!”
Patrick Kurtz: “Goodbye!”
Henrik Hanses: “And there will certainly be more exciting cases on Saturday evening at 20:15 on ZDF. That is when the new episode of Wilsberg will be broadcast. What is it called, Eva?”
Eva Tanski: “48 Hours.”
Due to limited broadcasting time, the interview was heavily edited. Individual responses did not follow the same questions as in the original interview, and certain sentences were made in different contexts from those presented here.
