Actor Walter Sittler considers himself primarily a team player and much less a good sole decision maker.

“I’m a team person, it’s never been any different. I often trust the ideas of others more than my own,” says the soon to be 70-year-old resident of Stuttgart. “And if I’m left alone, I’m just useless.” Finding your own way is not easy for him today.

However, there are also disadvantages to always listening to the ideas of others. “I think then, that will be good, but that’s not true,” says Sittler. “Because nobody really knows. And those who always claim to know, should question that from time to time.” The best example of this is politics.

The two-time German TV award winner Sittler, who will be 70 on December 5, is best known for TV series such as “Nikola”, “The Commissioner and the Sea” and its follow-up crime series “The Commissioner and the Sea”.
