The Karbonkel puppet from the Dutch youth series Ik Mik Loreland was restored after spending years in a corner of the Beeld & Geluid depot. It is on public display from Saturday, allowing visitors to see the character in person. Puppeteer Siem van Leeuwen said the encounter may show that Karbonkel is not as frightening as some viewers remembered.
