One question I have about one of the earlier episodes (the one where the WPC is hospitalised), is whether those little troll things with the crazy haircuts existed back in '73. I can't remember any of my friends having them when I was a kid, and I always thought that they were more 80's than 70's.
It was so predominantly placed by her bedside, however, that it wasn't unintentionally placed there or unavoidable like the uPVC windows. Can anyone remember if they did exist back then?

Trolls in their collectible form were first created by Thomas Dam and his family, in Denmark in the 1950s. The first Dam trolls were carved in wood. Later, they were made of soft rubber, and finally, vinyl.
