"Das Reduit" is the successor to the Gotthelf and Pfahlbauer series

 Swiss television is suspending its summer series next year. The reason for this is the European Championships and the Summer Olympics in Beijing. "Schweiz aktuell", as part of which the summer programs were always broadcast, will report intensively on both sporting events. As a result, there is not enough capacity for an in-house production, reports the TV magazine TV. However, another major summer project entitled "Das Reduit" is planned for 2009. According to the TV star, it will be a series about the outbreak of the Second World War. The occasion is the 70th anniversary of the mobilization for war in 1939. SF wants to deal with this topic using contemporary documents and eyewitnesses.
