Trivia / Purno de Purno

• Keep Circulating the Tapes: One episode of the fifth series, Zwarte Sjakie was long thought to be lost to time. While no official reason has been given by VPRO, it's believed that the episode's satirical themes revolving Blackface (the title's even a pun on Zwarte Piet) made it unavailable outside of home video. It wouldn't be until 2020 when someone acquired the rare Purno de Purno DVD and ripped the lost episode to Archive.org (known for the Wayback Machine) for preservation purposes.
• No Export for You: As is the case with numerous media from Europe, the show was never exported outside of the Netherlands. The only way you can watch the series without acquiring the rare DVD is via the Internet (e.g. YouTube, Archive.org, etc).
