Trivia
The appearance of the characters was inspired by a visit that Peter Firmin and Oliver Postgate made to the British Museum, where they saw the Lewis chessmen which were probably made in Norway, but were found in the Western Isles.

Rare Children's Fantasy Series I Want on DVD

I have been looking for new animated series to watch, and I had watched this 1959 series from the U. K. on YouTube (despite six episodes missing), and I really love it. Also, I really wish the series was on North American DVD. For those of you who don't know, this series is a children's fantasy series about a Viking prince-turned-king named Noggin and the adventures he, his family, and friends have.

You know, from watching the episodes I've seen, I thought the animation reminded me a little of the "cut-out" animation of the human characters from the "Paddington Bear" TV series from 1976. I'm afraid there is nothing else to say other than I love this rare children's series, even though I'm 37 years old. And again, I really wish the series was on North American DVD.
