Lou van Burg
Lou van Burg is a Dutchman who has had a successful career as a television personality, singer and game host in Germany. Born in The Hague, van Burg began his career as a singer and lecturer in Parisian pubs. He made his first appearance as a television presenter on Austrian radio ORF in 1958 and shortly thereafter on German ARD. When Germany's second ZDF television station was founded in 1963, van Burg became the host of Der goldene Schuss the following year, a game show that quickly gained immense popularity. Referring to Schiller's Wilhelm Tell, in an early example of an interactive game, contestants, assisted by the viewer on the phone, must correctly execute the crossbow while attempting to hit the target on a target screen. The ritual, accompanied by van Burg's slogans, has become a television classic. On August 25, 1966, the show was even broadcast from the Monte Carlo Casino with Grace Kelly and in 1967, it was accepted by the British ITV network.
