Stockinger

Stockinger

"Stockinger" is an Austrian-made police television drama, with fourteen 45-minute episodes first aired from 1996 to 1997.

The series is a spin-off from the popular Austrian television drama Inspector Rex, and focuses on Ernst Stockinger, one of the original members of the "Mordkommission".

Stockinger (Karl Markovics) leaves the series to return to Salzburg where his wife (who did not appear in the original series) has inherited a dental practice. He is appointed a "Bezirksinspektor" (District Inspector) at the "Landesgendarmarie" (provincial police-force), sharing an office with District Inspector Antonella Simoni (Sandra Cervik).

Unlike the members of the team in 'Rex', who appear to be self-directed and are seldom seen to answer to senior management, Stockinger reports to Herr Hofrat Dr Brunner, a philosophising bureaucrat.

Stockinger is portrayed as a clumsy, almost Inspector Clouseau-like character, driving a clapped-out 1973 VW Variant, but single-minded when following up clues.

The series was first broadcast in Australia in February 2008 on SBS television.

First Episode

'Stocki' arrives at the height of the Salzburg Festival, receiving free tickets to the annual performance of Jedermann (which he misses). Coincidentally, this event will set the scene for his first case which involves the murder of one of the city's chocolatiers, Herr Fehling. His bitter business rival, Baldinger, is the obvious suspect but Stockinger isn't prepared to jump to conclusions.
