Jonny Buchardt
Cagliost:
'''Jonny Buchardt''' (born '''Herbert Günther Schlichting''', born 16 September 1925 in [[Wuppertal]], died 8 October 2001 in [[Bensberg]]) was a German actor, comedian and [[Master of Ceremonies|MC]].
==Life==
Buchardt was the son of [[Claire Schlichting]], a well-known German comedian at the time, and Herbert Schlichting. His half-sister is the actress [[Monika Hansen]]. Called Jonny by his parents, he adopted the name Buchardt as his [[stage name]]. This was the surname of the partner of Claire Schlichting's second husband's mother. With his stepfather, the dancer Erik Hansen, Buchardt also performed together under this name.<ref>Ben Becker: Na und, ich tanze, Verlag Droemer, 2011, S. 36 ff</ref>
Buchardt's most famous sketch, the "gin number", was a pretend advertisement for [[Gordon's Gin]]. This sketch showed a very formal and smooth-talking presenter, who promoted Gordon's Gin as "sooo gentle". However, over several commercial breaks, the spokesman became increasingly drunk and lost control over his body and pronunciation.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tELW1n5auQU</ref>
Jonny Buchardt was a notable figure at the [[Cologne Carnival]]. In one appearance as MC in 1973, he after priming the audience to answer his calls of "[[de:Zicke zacke zicke zacke hoi hoi hoi|Zicke zacke zicke zacke hoi hoi hoi]]" and "[[Cheering|Hip hip... hurray]]", he got them to shout "[[Nazi salute#Sieg Heil|Sieg heil]]". Buchardt reacted to this with a gesture of mock horror and an exclamation: "That mustn't be true, man! What? So many old [[Nazism|comrades]] here tonight?!" This received renewed attention in 2013.<ref>https://ift.tt/2wszf1A>
Buchardt was married to the German actress [[Barbara Schöne]] for several years and had a son from this marriage. He was married to Blanka Schlichting (née Jakob) until his death in 2001.
