There is nothing more traditional than the characters Spejbl and Hurvínek. They appeared on the scene already in 1926. They are the main actors of both civilian and fantastic stories, they are commentators, discussing philosophically about basic life issues. Their already traditional opponent is a similar female couple, Hurvínek‘s inseparable friend Mánička and her pedagogically focused „grandma“, Mrs. Kateřina. This basic four protagonists is complemented by an inseparable dog Zeryk.
