Berlin (dpa) - Comedian Luke Mockridge finds small-town roots extremely helpful.

“I'm not a big fan of red carpets and Instagram stories with celeb friends.

That's why I'm very happy to still have this healthy home base with all the hype that is going on around me, "said the 31-year-old of the German press agency.

The moderator comes from the Bonn district of Endenich.

Even today he likes to stroll through the center with his mother and hear gossip about the residents.

“If I had stayed in Endenich, I would probably be teaching English and sports today, coaching the local football club or playing there and going to my local pub diligently.

And if I imagine it that way, it wouldn't be the worst life either. "

Mockridge plays the main role in the three-part series “ÜberChristmas”, which will run on the Netflix streaming service from Friday.

There he can be seen as an unsuccessful musician who visits the family in his home village over the holidays.
