Didi's Comedy Show

Didi's Comedy Show (other title: Die Didi-Show) was a 1989 German comedy television show starring Dieter Hallervorden that ran for 10 episodes. Didi is a bumbling detective who is struck by "brilliant" ideas which turn out disastrously; he eventually comes out on top, however.

The show is based partly on Didi's comedic antics, many of which would be impossible in real life. For example, he takes part in a hammer throwing competition at a police sports event, forgets to let go of the hammer, and is pulled by centrifugal force into the skies; he is saved by hanging on to an aeroplane.

It was quite popular in India as a comedy show on the national television station Doordarshan in the 1980s, and in Uganda in the late '80s on UTV (now UBC).
