The fundraiser for the actors who played Pippi, Tommy and Annika was set up by two writers. “Everyone had fun with Pippi, except Pippi himself. Very poignant. Hopefully we can still thank them," says writer Heleen Bosma. Swedish actress Inger Nilsson, who played Pippi Longstocking fifty years ago, told this newspaper on Friday that she never benefited from the success of the film adaptations. A donation of one hundred euros is accompanied by the caption: "This is a great promotion! It is incomprehensible that these actors and actresses were fobbed off like this at the time!”
