Now "The Undertaker" is also showing in French-speaking Switzerland
For the first time in 15 years—or for the first time since «Lüthi und Blanc»—Western Swiss Television (RTS) has translated a German-Swiss TV series. The crime series «Der Bestatter»—or «Le Croque-Mort»—has been airing on RTS 1 since Thursday.
Various media in French-speaking Switzerland had reported on this, and RTS confirmed at the request of the news agency SDA on Friday that it was the first SRF series since "Lüthi und Blanc" to be dubbed. For the time being, RTS plans to broadcast the first two seasons. In an interview with Le Matin, RTS program director Gilles Pache explained that the quality and originality of the series were the deciding factors in taking it on. The first episode of the third season aired in German-speaking Switzerland on Tuesday. As "The Undertaker", actor and comedian Mike Müller, alias gravedigger Luc Conrad, repeatedly reverts to his old role as a detective inspector. RTS shows "Le Croque-Mort" every Thursday evening at 9.25 pm.
