Mark Owen as a German cult presenter?

“We had a good time together”: This is how Gottschalk said goodbye to the around 2,000 people in the Baden Arena after the last “Wetten,dass..?” broadcast (Saturday, November 25, 2023) with him as moderator. As guests he welcomed actor Matthias Schweighöfer, the British boy band Take That, the singers Helene Fischer and Shirin David, and also the ex-national player Bastian Schweinsteiger and his wife Ana Ivanović.

One of the Take That members was particularly made fun of on social media. The boy band was a guest at Gottschalk for the seventh time – they have of course gotten older over time – but they have also changed visually. Today, Mark Owen has long hair, a mustache, and, according to many presented and threatened losers with the show mascot “Zonk”. The first memes came just as quickly as the realization of a similarity between the boy band singer and the presenter.

A few of the Take That memes:

“I’m not that good with names”

There were a few mistakes from Gottschalk again this time. He greeted the actor Matthias Schweighöfer as “Matthias Schweinsteiger”. Former professional footballer Bastian Schweinsteiger was introduced as “Bastian Schweigsteiger”. “I’m not that good with names,” joked the 73-year-old. And just as quickly as with Mark Owen, the next memes followed on social media.
