What happens

Graf Yoster gibt sich die Ehre (French title: Le comte Yoster a bien l'honneur) – which translates to English as Count Yoster has the Honour – is a television series produced between 1967 and 1976. Starring Lukas Ammann and Wolfgang Völz, the series followed the adventures of the titular aristocratic gentleman detective and his working-class butler. It was a success, in particular in West Germany and in France. Originally the show was a West German production in black-and-white but it evolved into a European co-production in colour.
