The Mockridges
The six boys are out of the house and a new life is starting in Bonn-Endenich - at least that's what Bill Mockridge, stand-up comedian and "Lindenstraße" star, and his wife Margie Kinsky, also a stand-up comedian and model chaos mother, hope. In the fictional comedy series, the real-life Mockridge family shows that you can never really get rid of family. In the four episodes, TV and You Tube star Luke Mockridge first moves back home. This means that the new-found peace is soon gone, because Luke not only makes himself comfortable, but also brings his new flame with him, which does not go down well with his mother. Besides, Margie has other plans. But so does Bill. Margie's spontaneously planned tour of Germany and Bill's various visions for the future are difficult to reconcile - and with six sons, everything turns out differently than expected in the end anyway.
In the new WDR series, the Mockridge family plays their biggest role yet: themselves! The ensemble is completed by neighbour Petra, played by Anna Stieblich ("Türkisch für Anfänger"), and Luke's new girlfriend Nina (Inga Lessmann).
