A German TV magazine has stated that another private station, Tele 5, will
broadcast the missing 8 episodes (the final is a double feature) starting
January 18, 1992. Those jerks at RTL+ did *not* give a hint about this and
simply stated something like 'the mystery of TP will never be solved. Period'
when they aired the 'last' episode (=2013) yesterday. If *this* is the essence
of private TV... OTOH, none of those greedy oeffentlichrechtliche Senders
(who charge you DM 23,- per *month* from next year on!) bothered to buy TP.
