Bjarne Mädel as Heiko Schotte (2012)

Crime Scene Cleaner can be described as a mixture of chamber play, sitcom and comedy of manners. Guest actors include Sandra Hüller, Florian Lukas, Matthias Brandt and Fritzi Haberlandt.

Plot

Bjarne Mädel plays the crime scene cleaner Heiko "Schotty" Schotte. He works as a facility cleaner (specialized on crime scenes) whose job it is to remove the last traces of the living, in and around Hamburg. It is not a crime thriller nor detective story,[2] it rather takes a closer look at the work of the crime scene cleaner in a humorous way, where the criminal cases have a rather subordinate importance. The main focus is laid on scenes which mirror the style of a chamber play.[2] Those scenes are garnished with situational humour, which results from Schotty's interaction with the spouses, acquaintances of the victim or in one case even with the ghost of the one victim.[3] In multiple episodes Schotty's deep connection to the soccer team SV Hamburg is either briefly mentioned, or partially becomes the in-depth subject of the conversation.

Foreign broadcasting

After the Video-on-Demand rights were already sold to Canal+ in France in the fall of 2013, the Studio Hamburg sold the right for broadcasting and DVD-Releases to the American television station MHz Network.[4] Since 5 December 2014, the network aired season 1 and 2 of the show under the title Crime Scene Cleaner in the original German soundtrack with English subtitles.[5] The episodes 1 until 10 were released on DVD on 27 January 2015.[6]

An adaptation for BBC One titled The Cleaner starring Greg Davies was broadcast in 2021, with Helena Bonham Carter, David Mitchell, Ruth Madeley and Stephanie Cole as guest actors.[7][8][9][10]

DVD releases

The first season of the TV-Show was released on DVD on 9 March 2012.[11] On 7 June 2013, the second season DVD as well as the Blu-ray-Completed Edition, containing the first two seasons were released.[12] On 10 October 2014 the third season DVD was released, which contained the not-yet-aired episodes. On 13 March 2015 the fourth season was released as well as the limited collectors edition “Böse Dose” (eng.: Evil Can), which contained all episodes that were aired by then on three Blu-ray Discs. The fifth season was released on 11 March 2016.[13] On 13 October 2017, the sixth season appeared on DVD and Blu-ray. The final season was released on 25 January 2019. A complete edition on 7 DVDs followed at the end of the year.

Der Tatortreiniger is also available on multiple video on demand services like Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, Google Play and iTunes.[14] All episodes also appeared freely accessible on the VOD platform of ARD.

Recurring cast

Many of the guest actors return in the final episode.

Composer Carsten Meyer (episodes 7 and 24), the former football player Uwe Seeler (episode 22) and rapper Marteria (episode 31) have cameo appearances.
