I often wonder if Helena and Hagen's room aren't the same set just differently decorated? We saw Hagen's room recently when Dana woke from her nightmare and Helena's room when she was dreaming of Daniel. Both both don't seem to used that often anymore. Tristan's bedroom is a pretty fascinating set for me because it really doesn't get used all that much but I also don't see which other set could be it.
The hospital hallway is naturally a new set, but anybody have any idea which set left because of it? When's the last time we saw the inside of the stableset? The patient room gets used to much less frequently that I'm almost suspecting that it isn't a set, but I have to admit I haven't been paying much attention recently. But like it was said, it seems they brought back the Olli bedroom set for like one episode during the breakup crisis, which seems almost even more pointless than having a set which used every once in a while. All very confusing.
But yeah, I think the flatshare is supposed to have 4 rooms, going back to the Chrolli, Lydia, Constantin, Judith days. I remember being people being very WTF when somebody new moved in and they explained it just by, "oh, you can have the spare" room.
I think that Chrolli have one room, Dana has one room, Andi has one room and Jessica has one room. Daniel started out on the couch, lived in Dana's room while she was gone I think and now is rooming with Andi?
Sheesh, Helena really should make him get his own place if she wants to date him. I mean if Chrolli+Jessica is awkward, think about how akward would it be if Helena has couchsex with Daniel on the same couch where she and had countless sex sessions, right next to her ex-boyfriend and the woman who had sex with both her ex and her current bf.

I wonder at what point VL 'set-making people' will realize that it is getting ridiculous with the flatshare. (I'm saying this as if there was nothing wrong with it before ) I mentioned this somewhere earlier, based on whatever knowledge I've got of VL, they can surely afford to build just 1 more flat set, that too in their own building, I would've said a new bedroom set for our boys would do, but they need to get the #&$% out of that flatshare already!!!

I fear that even if they built a new set it probably wouldn't be for Chrolli. Chrolli just isn't one of the big screentime storylines. Even Daniel/Helena which is shaping up to be the new big story doesn't even have a proper set for the dream guy.
SPOILER I'm not surprised that the teens are getting a set when they arrive in Düsseldorf, but I'm surprised why they don't just move the teens in with Ricardo and Clarissa in one place. Seems like that would be a better use of Nico's old place since they apparently want to keep that around. But now it looks like it's just Ricardo in that place and the teens in Charlie's place.

Seriously, especially since it's not even Daniel's place. He is more or less a guest of Andi. "Bro, thanks for letting me stay in your place. Is it ok if I bang your ex-girlfriend there on the same couch where you guys used to have sex."
I mean jeez, at least Olli was an official flatshare member and Coco had already moved out by the time Chrolli started doing it in the same places.

I have literally lol:ed my way through most of this thread (well except for the two recent posts maybe), awesome posts and lots of pics, plus a super sweet backstage clip of Olli/Jo describing the new set of No Limits, (from back in the days when he just had become NL partner w Gregor). Chrolli live in a flat-share with extraordinary and magic architecture, that they sleep - or slept - in a bedroom with magic open walls and double doors....! Hell, I even had to go back and watch some really old clips from like 2007 to make sense of references in some of the flat-share layouts and interior decoration. Well, there's still a few mysteries I can't really wrap my head around.... that may go unsolved. - What's up with the two doors from [what used to be] Chrolli's bedroom, and the scary open wall by the windows? - What's the deal with the thick horisontal yellow stripe along the living room wall; suspiciously similar to that of the hospital set wall blue stripe..? - And how much more making out will that blue living room sofa stand until it breaks in two? Four more years? ;D

I think Christian and Oliver need a new apartment it is too crowded. VL is a bit unrealistic, why would a doctor such as Daniel live with christian and Oliver? Wouldn't a doctor make enough money to afford his own apartment. Also, all of the characters on the show are in their 20s or 30s, aren't they a bit old to be living together?

I get what you're saying, but they are all single. Dana and now maybe Dainiel are the only two that are in a relationship, and they are both early on into them.
Chrolli on the other hand make no sense, after the divorce and everything that lead up to it, we were made away that they own the building and there are plenty of rooms. There is just no logical reason for them to be living with anyone and to top that off, from what Olli said, in a smaller room in the flat to boot.

^^ Re Chrolli: Exactly. And it so happened that I just watched parts of an episode in "deepdarkmidnight's"' wonderful Chrolli-kisses series; "Kiss 186", from the time of their first marriage, when Chris and Olli are looking at buying a nice big flat for themselves! Why oh why didn't that work out. Indeed, they deserve and need a place of their own now to get the present flat-share mötley crew out of their hair. DDM's clip is from MM's Chrolli series part 64a (which is in turn from VL episode aired on 24.03.11).

The guys never seem to have any time for themselves someone is always getting in the way whether it is Jessica, Daniel, Dana, Andi, ect. I guess the VL writers want to have a actors together to illustrate they are friends. Maybe it is too expensive to make a new set? I don't know but it just seems so unrealistic that Christian and Oliver could not afford a place for themselves.

Well. Actually, they have their own place - they own the friggin house still, don't they?! So in theory they could decide to more or less evict the other lot and finally get their married life back, yay! No, wait! That could lead up to too much Chrolli happiness so that's a no-no. So long live the sehr, sehr unrealistic flatshare angst...I guess.

Yeah, I love how they don't have much money when it comes to where they stay, but Olli could run off to Majorca or to Ibeza, when he's trying to get away from Christian. I just don't understand why one person has more money than 2. I guess Christian is a drain on the bank account.
At least we don't see any of the bedrooms in the flatshare. If they had ended up giving Dana/Hagen one I would not have been happy.

That's how it's works on soaps people who have little means seem to do a lot of things. They can go on trips and go shopping but last week they were broke. I wish I could do that but that only happens in Soap land. LOL

Twatts, I've explained you amonth ago; a direct flight to Baleares can be found for 100 - 150€ and hotels are very cheap (more, during the stay with Rafael, Olli and him were in the house of Rafa's friends). So, for a week in Ibiza or Majorca you can pay 5 - 600€ for example. An honeymoon can cost a lot more, naturally.

Olli must spend all him money buying him food! ;D ;D (We all know how Olli likes to keep his Chrissie happy )

It wouldn't cost anymore than the trip to Ibiza, if they didn't want it to. It could be a few night in a hotel in Cologne. It doesn't have to be a big deal. After all it's their second time around. Why are they making such a big deal out of it now, they didn't when they did the big wedding. I know you have your opinion philos, but just like the privacy rears it head when its not Chrolli so does the money thing. That's my opinion and I'm sure it will continue.

That's exactely MY opinion, too!!! Two people, a bed, and privacy! All the rest is just an excuse! Of course it would be weird, to say the least, in the flatshare, but as Trish said, any good hotel room would do!

Is it me or did they get rid of the bathroom set too in the flatshare? Chrolli don't have a bedroom anymore and I miss their wonderful bathroom scenes...But I don't see anything happening in that bathroom anymore. Does anybody know something about it??

Yep the bathroom set is gone, which is a shame, because yes Chrolli had some great scenes there, but all the flatshare members could use it. It's really kind of boring with everything especially all the love scenes happen on the sofa. Not to mention kind of gross.

Thanks for the update. What a shame! I so loved their bathroom scene, especially in the tub! No bedroom, no bathroom for Chrolli...that's kinda sad...

It makes wonder what TPTB have in mind for Chrolli as a couple in the future. Their universe has shrunk to NL where there are always other people, the flatshare lounge where there are always other people and the stable office where there are normally other people. It's impossible for them to have a private conversation let alone funky times unless they do it on the floor of the bar after hours or in the street.
I know the same thing seems to be the case for other characters but Chrolli have been an established couple for nearly four years now and so the idea of them still living like squatters in a one room, overcrowded flatshare is nonsensical, especially as someone pointed out earlier that they actually own the entire building. Even if they go back to wanting a kid where would they put it? The corridor's the only other part of the flat that still exists and depending on any other character they attempt to squash into the flat even that may no longer be available.

I think if they want, they could always use Marlene's room for Chrolli's bedroom and they have had no problem givng others privacy in the flatshare. Olli/R were alone there plenty of times given his short stint. I wouldn't give up hope of Chrolli having private moments. Unfortunatley, it's all in the writers hands as to when it will happen. Also, as you pointed out they are an established couple so they aren't as important as the newer ones. The terrible thing is that they did the major break up without ever truly giving us much of a real reconciliation. The scene in the hospital was nice, but not nearly enough.
