In the early days of German television there were very few receivers. The general public watched television collectively in so-called 'Fernsehstuben' (televison lounges) of which there were two types. In the more simple versions there was just a television, but there were also some places with bigger screens which used mirrors to enlarge the images and in the fragments of this film it is one of these which is shown. Nevertheless, the enthusiastic audience that comes pouring out has been posed, which is revealed by the repetitions of shots.
