Plot
The Wikmansson family consists of Linda, the mother, Ludde, the father, as well as their daughter Agnes, the adoptive son Bertil and their adoptive-father. Linda, the mother, was pregnant and the major issue was if their child would be a boy or a girl. The baby in the womb was called "broster" (a combination of bror and syster, i.e. brother and sister).[1] The family also fought pollution and shopping hysteria.
The series has been referred to as a 1970s version of the Christmas gospel, where the characters move out into the countryside.[2]
Later
The seriews is one of the titles in the 2009 book Tusen svenska klassiker (2009).[3] Reruns aired between 23 February-6 April 1982.
