Looking for the name of a german actress

GermanActressFilter: Looking for the name of a german actress. I only have some vague info :-/

These are the things I know of her:
- I believe she's in her early 20s
- Has blonde hair, blue eyes
- "Petite" body
- Mainly does TV work (made for TV films, TV series)
- I've only ever caught her in two settings, one was a tv movie, the other a tv series:
In the movie, she played a slightly retarded girl, employed at a small corner shop. Constantly got made fun of by local kids; lived with her single mother.

In the TV series (a detective series featuring a female detective in her 50s, I think), she played a waitress working at a hotel where a murder crime had been committed.

Both appearances were fairly recent (last 2-3 years), broadcast on german TV (ARD/ZDF)

Help me, Ask-Me MetaFilter, you're my only hope!

Response by poster: at first I thought it was #1, but the female detective i remember seeing was much ... ermm... rounder. And had red hair, afaik. Oh, and she was perennially pissed off at the people around her not doing as they were told.

Response by poster: I could've sworn it might be Bella Block (the detective of the series i'm thinking of), but none of the listed episodes match what I remember, and no mention of blonde actresses

Interesting coincidental pose in the photos at the top of those Rosa Roth and Bella Block links.

xiojason: the reason why detectives on german public tv use mobfons a lot is that they earn money with product placement :D they also have fancy cars
