The series was directed by Rolf von Sydow, Peter German, Celino Bleiweiß and Wilfried Dotzel.
Instead of appreciating the huge vote of confidence from the head office, she suspects an intrigue of her rival Dr Ralf-Maria Sagerer behind this transfer to the Hanseatic city in the far north of Germany.
However, many board members have little confidence in a female bank director and Dr Sagerer continues to stir up trouble against Julia.
Julia moves with her 12-year-old son Maxl and her resolute housekeeper Fanny into an Art Nouveau terraced house in Hamburg-Harvestehude in the fictitious street Eppendorfer Allee 35.
The charming private banker Thaddäus van Daalen also plays an important role, as he finally wants to get his headstrong son Hendrik married.
The Hamburg branch of the bank is staffed by the affable Kuno Grameier, also a Bavarian far from home, the bustling secretary Mrs Heise and the discreet and tradition-conscious porter Löhlein.
The family is repeatedly transported to the Bavarian mountains, the second major location in the series, where van Daalen senior takes Hermine into his care after retiring from business life.
A skiing holiday with an unexpected twist, a very special trip to California and many entanglements with bank customers keep the TV family on their toes.
