Cover of the DVD "The Triplets and Gaudí.

The Triplets ("Les Tres Bessones" in Catalan) are three fictional characters (Ana, Teresa and Elena) created by Catalan children's literature illustrator Roser Capdevila.

The Triplets were created in 1983, based on Capdevila's own daughters, three actual triplets born in 1969. The stories were immediately successful and began publishing in many countries. In 1985 a new character, the "Bored Witch" ("La Bruixa Avorrida") was added to the plots to form a collection of classical stories, "The Triplets and (...)"

In 1994, television producers Cromosoma and Televisió de Catalunya adapted the stories to make a cartoon series based on the books. The series became very successful and profitable and led to the production of a second series with the Bored Witch as main character, together with France 3, Canal J and Storimages.

By 2004, The Triplets series consisted of 104 episodes, while The Bored Witch reached 52. They've been translated to 35 different languages and have been shown in 158 countries or territories.

Plot

The plots of The Triplets follow a definite pattern. The sisters play some prank or manage to annoy the Bored Witch, and, to punish them, she sends them into a classical tale, legend, or children's literary work. The main structure of the classic remains, but some twists are introduced to favour each plot and define the sisters' personalities.

Chapters

The Triplets find themselves involved in a different classic story each chapter.
