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).
The series has been referred to as a 1970s version of the Christmas gospel, where the characters move out into the countryside.
[2] The series is one of the titles in the 2009 book Tusen svenska klassiker (2009).
