The 50

The 50 clueless celebrities arrive at the castle. The trouble begins at the meet and greet. Eric Sindermann makes himself the most unpopular guest. The lion lets the cat out of the bag: The contestants are going to face the toughest challenge of their "careers". With the kick-off for the first arena game, the players start fighting for their survival.

Tear alert: the first big elimination. The room distribution leads to unpleasant but entertaining scenes. Alliances are forged - big words, little substance. Ehrenmannrius gambles against the fox. Brains are required in the arena, which is tricky when it comes to reality stars. And Yasin falls in love with Jenny Elvers. Second-hand embarrassment deluxe!

The lion calls for a tea dance in the arena - which may become a disco fox to the sidelines for some. The winners have the power: Who will be kicked out of the show? Now the shameless scheming begins. Matthias is seriously complaining about the standard of the others. Kate and Sam, best friends forever, have the relationship crisis of the century. Glorious hubbub!

Big clean-out: After the arena game, five celebrities are lovingly kicked out of the show by the winners. Yasin and Jenny can't keep their hands off each other. Paulina and Theresia show how professional bitch-biting works. Strategies are being rigorously worked out. The girls team up against the boys. It's a festival of backstabbing!

During musical chairs, the celebrities get the chance to win one of the saving jokers - motivation enough for some to play shamelessly unfair. One player collapses, even though he has supposedly made no effort. Love Machine Yasin has to justify his affair with Jenny. In the group game, another top loser emerges. And boys' tears are shed.

After the arena game, it's time to muck out again. Everyone is in alliances, only Cosimo sees himself as a lone wolf. Paulina cries several times - which she does very convincingly. Christina is played for a fool and snaps in an artistic manner. Giulia and Serkan also bang up a storm. And one celebrity reveals his handmade sex secret.

Today is a big day: One match follows the next. Cosimo has to take on the fox. The group game involves 8,000 euros for the jackpot - to be added or subtracted. One celebrity brazenly lies about his age. Eva believes that Carina is making a pass at Chris Broy. And: Full pants after the arena game! Who will be sacked immediately?

Six celebrities are kicked out. Despair, anger and tears - in other words: high-quality reality. Chris and Eva are passionately bickering with each other. Crisis in the male alliance, as well as with Tommy and Paulina: disappointment everywhere. Raffa asks herself - in this show of all places - the question of purpose. Diogo and Vanessa have their first deep talk after a horrendous break-up.

New game, new tragedy: After the arena, there's a new battleground. One celebrity scores zero points - their ego is crushed. The celebrities get to know each other better and better, unfortunately generally not a great experience. Jenny successfully reduces her fan club, and now half the crew is against her - a remarkable achievement.

The lion is throwing a pool party. As always, there is a lot of plotting, scheming and manipulation. Serkan is developing into a master strategist, at least that's what he thinks. An unexpected celebrity wins the joker game. In two other games, there's some serious cash at stake. And a minor injury occurs during a scuffle.

In the arena, a jigsaw puzzle is being put together, and for four of the celebrities, this will be their last day on the "Golden Lion" playground. As expected, the men's brilliant alliance fails due to the egos of those involved. There is also turmoil among the women, thanks to Paulina. She even tries to come to terms with her unresolved break-up from Yasin. (Spoiler: to no avail.)

Who will bowl themselves out of the arena? What initially looks like a quick decision takes a surprising turn. Frugal Cosimo pulls out his long-saved joker, and the result is a pool of joyful tears and gratitude. Things look bleak for Serkan's social life: His list of friends has officially dropped to zero.

Today the decision is made over who gets to write "THE 50 Finalist" on their résumé. Big emotions: One celebrity will sacrifice themselves for the others. Paulina and Tommy have their own private arena game under their bedsheets. Cosimo shows off his little man. And in the climbing challenge, several celebrities end up falling straight out of the show.

The final four celebrities are competing for glory - and the jackpot. There's a sexy topless dance. Carina gets a belated fan club. Lazing by the pool for one last time, accompanied by conversations that are thankfully not too deep. One last fox game, with a large sum of money at stake. Then the final arena game - a nail-biting final match.
