Olsen-banden (English: The Olsen Gang) is a series of Danish crime comedy movies revolving around Egon Olsen and his gang and their (mostly unsuccessful) crimes. The series consists of 14 movies released between 1968 and 1998 (with a considerable gap between the last and second last films). Around the time of the fourth movie, Egon started to commit his burglaries using highly unusual plans, involving creative use of everyday items, as well as social engineering by playing on broad stereotypes. These plans would become the most defining and popular trait of the series. At the same time, a significant amount of social and political commentary was introduced. In a clear criticism of the capitalistic society, the number of Corrupt Corporate Executives, as well as impoverished and alcoholic characters, rose dramastically.Norway and Sweden both made their own version of the series, with different approaches: The Norwegian version sticks very closely to the Danish one, using the same plots, mostly the same characters and largely the same names. However, the gang name is written as one word, "Olsenbanden," as opposed to the Danish hyphenated "Olsen-banden". The films themselves also tend to be renamed in adaptation, with the exception of Olsen-bandens sidste bedrifter and Olsen-bandens sidste stik which were simply spelled differently to accomodate for spelling differences between Danish and Norwegian. In March 2022, a reboot for this version was announced, with a September premiere the same year. The Swedish version diverged from the others quite a bit, starting with its title, Jönssonligan. For one, they did not remake all of the Danish movies; rather, eight films were made in its first run, of which the first three were straight remakes and the last five used mostly original plots that only borrowed certain plot points from the Danish series. Further, some of the characters were either Demoted to Extra or became Ascended Extras. It was also rebooted twice (to date) in 2015 and 2020, and a third reboot has been announced for December 2024. Other than the films, there are also two Licensed Games: Jönssonligan: Jakten på Mjölner and Jönssonligan går på djupetTranslated"The Jönsson Gang: The search for Mjolnir" and "The Jönsson Gang Plunges the Depths" respectively) released in 1999 and 2000. Both of the games were written by Per Demervall, who also drew some comics about the gang beforehand.In 1999, a Spinoff Babies version of the Swedish adaptation called Lilla Jönssonligan (The little Jönsson Gang) was released. This soon led to Spinoff Babies versions of both the Danish and Norwegian versions being created as well, both called Olsen(-)banden Jr.The series has a character page which goes into more detail on the central trio as well as other recurring characters in all versions of the series.Not to be related to the Olsen Twins. Or the Olsen Brothers.

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other
 Olsen-banden / int_10dcbe05
comment
Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Rocky and his wife Eivor are portrayed this way in Varning för Jönssonligan. She's a bit of a ballbuster and he's very meek, but any time Sickan insults one in front of the other, he ends up on the receiving end of a "The Reason You Suck" Speech. It's especially scary when Rocky does this.

Impossible Insurance
 Olsen-banden / int_12641dc0
comment
Impossible Insurance: In one movie, the gang are working for a Corrupt Corporate Executive who owns an insurance company, tasked to steal a MacGuffin containing sensitive information for him. Once they retrieve it, however, he decides that it would be cheaper to just kill them and take the MacGuffin, rather than pay them the two million he promised. Narrowly escaping an attempt on his life, Olsen - knowing that nobody else would be willing to pay for the information - comes up with a plan: He takes out a life-insurance with the company, with a 5.000.000 payout. Thus, it would no longer be economical for the Corrupt CEO to kill him, since it would cost as much as negotiating, while involving more dangers. But when he shows it off to the CEO, the latter quickly gets over the surprise and points him to the 'small print', which shows the exceptions to the policy, many of which could be easily used for arranging an 'accident'. Cue Egon tied up on a conveyor-belt over a vat of acid.

No Celebrities Were Harmed: The recurring villain in the Swedish films, Corrupt Corporate Executive Wall-Enberg, is a very un-subtle jab at both the Wallenberg family (one of Sweden's most influential "old money"-families) and the then-famous corporate raider Anders Wall.

The Old Convict
 Olsen-banden / int_16ccd84b
comment
The Old Convict: Although the movies are never set in prison, Egon shows traits of this. The entire staff knows him, he knows them, they know his tics, and the only people to know more about prisoner transport than Egon are the police. Egon's address in police files is Kjeld's house and Olsen-banden på spanden heavily implies that Egon, apart from Vridsløse prison, has no other place to sleep but with the Jensens. Finally, while it is left to other people to point this out, Egon occasionally does lose track of the outside world while in prison.

 Olsen-banden / int_170128e9
comment
Right Behind Me: Happens twice in the Swedish series. In Jönssonligan dyker upp igen, just as the other characters discuss his flaws and declare that "Sickan is over", the camera pans out to reveal he has entered the building. Despite the other characters obviously acting guilty once they realise this, Sickan ultimately doesn't seem to care... Although when this repeats in Jönssonligan på Mallorca, he isn't nearly as forgiving:

The Cameo: Many small roles were played by well known Danish actors, sometimes even after having played other major roles earlier in the series: In one of the movies Benny and Kjeld break in to a kiosk when they are noticed by three drunk Norwegian tourists, played by the actors who played the gang in the Norwegian series. In Olsen-bandens sidste stik Egon accidentally opens a door to a room where two old men are writing on typewriters: Erik Balling and Henning Bahs, the creators of the series (director and special effects creator, respectively).

The early movies don't feature Jensen, bringing us The Klutz Mortensen instead (or him and his clones, given the series' loads of similar characters). He gets suspended in Olsen-bandens store kup due to the chief getting the mistaken impression that he has gone insane, so Jensen's appearance is not that sudden.

Breaking the Fourth Wall: At the end of the Norwegian version of Olsen-bandens sidste stik, Egon has finally got the money and proclaims he has a plan, whereupon the camera zooms out to reveal the movie crew and the director yelling: "No Egon, not another plan!" The Danish version ends both Olsen-bandens sidste bedrifter and Olsen-banden over alle bjerge with Benny, Kjeld and Yvonne waving goodbye to the audience. Egon salutes the audience at the end of several other movies as well.

comment
The Holm of the Olsenbanden Jr series is also an example, since his actor, Johannes Joner, also played Holm's partner Gran in the adult series. The Hermansen and Holm duo of the Jr movies play off each other in a very similar way to Holm and Gran, though they're notably sillier and less competent. Hermansen Senior in particular is a pompous Know-Nothing Know-It-All, while Holm is his inexperienced and often bumbling assistant who nevertheless is far more likely to grab the Smart Ball.

Mythology Gag
 Olsen-banden / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Benny's original actor, Morten Grundwald, once commented that the only vehicle he didn't get to drive despite his character's Universal Driver's License was a plane, and mused that that may have been due to budget constraints. This may have inspired a scene in the second Norwegian Olsenbanden Junior, in which a twelve-year-old Benny does get to fly a small plane, claiming to have learned how from reading the Biggles books. (He gets it in the air but doesn't know how to get it down again, needing instructions over the radio on how to land.) From the Swedish series: In Jönssonligan på Mallorca, Harry suddenly utters a line in surprisingly good Finnish; this may be a reference to that his role in the gang was originally taken by a native Finnish speaker. One of the Swedish comics involve a relatively simple plan to earn money by staging a lottery. The "winner" happens to have the last name Billgren, just like an alias Sickan had used in Jönssonligan på Mallorca. In Jönssonligan - den perfekta stöten, Charles-Ingvar's uncle and original partner in crime Ralf is clearly designed to resemble the Charles-Ingvar of the original movies, although older.

Spiritual Successor: To the 1965 Danish movie Slå Først Frede (distributed abroad as Operation Lovebirds), also written/directed by Balling and Bahs, and with Sprogøe, Grunwald and Bundgaard in the leading roles. Slå Først Frede spoofs James Bond-style agent movies in the same way the Olsen-banden movies spoof crime/caper movies and Grunwald's character, Frede Hansen, a happy-go-lucky novelty salesman who is mistaken for a secret agent, is very similar to Benny.

Bilingual Bonus
 Olsen-banden / int_294ed981
comment
Bilingual Bonus: Jokes that require uncommon language skills are often included, for example: A corrupt oil sheik's crest carries the motto "Pecunia non olet" (Money has no smell). A not too bright nobleman's family motto is "Honi soit qui pense" (Shame on those who think). An Stasi-esque government surveillance and registration building has "Per fas et nefas" (With or without rights) written over the door. The World Bank's motto is "Sine Pecunia Dolet" (It hurts to be without money). German/English is rarely subtitled in either the Danish or Swedish original, despite often using misunderstandings over lingual false friends for comedy. For instance, somebody talking about „Köstliche Instrumente“ („delicious instruments“ instead of kostbar/valuable) or a misunderstanding about "möglich/mögligt" (the former German for "possible", the latter Swedish for "moldy"). Two French CorruptCorporateExecutives are named „Vilain“ and „Canaille“ („villain“ and „crook“ respectively).

Lampshade Hanging
 Olsen-banden / int_2a090d00
comment
Lampshade Hanging: In Olsen-banden går amok, Yvonne tells Egon to go and turn himself in to get Kjeld and Benny out of prison, because he's always the only one to get arrested. And in the next movie, Yvonne justifies having hidden the loot because this is the part of the plan where everything always goes wrong. Unsurprisingly it does, and partially because of her actions. A few times Egon leaves prison and Benny and Kjeld are not there (yet). As Egon wonders what's going on, we get a brief shot of what the scene should look like, before snapping back to reality. Occasionally made even funnier by soundeffects, such as in Olsen-banden deruda'.

Limited Wardrobe
 Olsen-banden / int_2a7e7af1
comment
Limited Wardrobe: The main members of Jönssonligan tend to wear the same outfits throughout the movies (save for the occasional disguise): Sickan is the standout example. He wears the exact same black suit, plaid beige waistcoat, striped bow tie and black beret in all of his five movie appearances. Rocky, while only appearing in two movies, still has the same leather jacket, plaid blue shirt and flat cap in both. Harry is never seen without his dark brown suit and circle-patterned red tie. While his shirt does change slightly, it’s always a beige, plaid one of some sort. Vanheden is a downplayed example. He rarely wears the exact same suit, but the general colouring usually applies (light grey plaid blazer and light grey pants) and always has the same black hat. The only exception is in Jönssonligan spelar högt, where he wears a completely different suit (but still the same hat).

Take That Us: In a teaser trailer for the 2010 animated movie, they take great care to separate the 13 original movies from the 14th, calling it the "senior citizen movie". Most of the third Danish movie towards Copenhageners. To elaborate: The crew go to Jylland, expecting to have an easy time cheating the local „peasants“ and ending up being cheated themselves repeatedly.

Egon: "I have a plan," "No, no, no!" and "It's all timed and organized."In Danish"Jeg har en plan," "Nej, nej, nej!" and "Det hele er timet og tilrettelagt." Meanwhile, Sickan replaces the last one with "Timed and prepared down to the last detail" and tends to respond to specific statements, especially Vanheden praising his smarts, with "Of course!"In Swedish"Tajmad och klar in i minsta detalj" — "tajmad" originally a form of Gratuitous English that was integrated into Swedish due to overuse — and "Självklart!" respectively

Arve Opsahl, who played the grown up Egon in Norway, was born in 1925. The continuity of the spinoff franchise would have made more sense if the "junior" gang had made their shenanigans in the thirties, rather than in the fifties. But then again, they never would have a chance to play rock`n roll.

Comic Trio: The Gang is one of the most popular and beloved examples of this trope in Scandinavia. Egon is of course the leader, with Benny (while less The Fool and more the Yes-Man) acting as the follower and Kjeld as the helpless dragalong who always knows that things are going to go wrong.

Actor Allusion: Both Gösta Ekman (Sickan) and Peter Haber (Dr. Busé) would later play Martin Beck in the two TV series made after the books. In the last movie, a prison guard is shown watching an episode of Beck (1997), with only some spoken lines heard ("This is Martin Beck. We know you are in there. You are surrounded.")

Noodle Incident: The Swedish films have two specific instances of this: In Varning för Jönssonligan, Vanheden immediately tenses up when a police woman says "cars" and claims that "That's all behind me now, not my area anymore, my bro Leopold did it!", possibly relating to a past as a used car salesman which never gets elaborated on. Early on in Jönssonligan och Dynamit-Harry, Sickan remarks that Harry "hasn't been sober since he blew up that parking meter on Valhallavägen!" Once again, this incident never gets elaborated on. More generally, while the Danish and Norwegian series usually show what event landed Egon in jail at the beginning of the movie, Jönssonligan får guldfeber and Jönssonligan: Jakten på Mjölner does not follow this pattern, leaving whatever heists landed Sickan there those times up to imagination.

Strictly Formula: The vast majority of sequels run on a simple plot: Egon gets hired to make a small heist, then his employer decides to dispose of him by somehow calling the cops' attention to him or attacking him instead of paying, then Egon decides to take revenge by stealing the MacGuffin back. Apparently this was used because it allowed the screenplayers to put multiple heists in one movie.

Adaptational Heroism
 Olsen-banden / int_3f45f1e6
comment
Adaptational Heroism: In the six Norwegian Olsenbanden Jr movies, the junior version of the gang appear to be straight-up heroic. They might occasionally cheat on a few tests or pull off some harmless pranks, which tend to earn them the ire of authority figures, and the younger Egon is still a schemer primarily motivated by self-interest... but the elaborate heists and schemes are generally employed to catch and expose criminals, not to commit crimes. This could also be why the Jr stories tend to have happier endings for the protagonists.

Never Going Back to Prison: After 20-30 stints in Vridsløse, Egon decides this at the beginning of Olsen-bandens flugt over plankeværket, even though he is usually not unhappy there. Benny's and Kjeld's reaction: „What, never again?“ It's justified as Egon risks being put into the prison's psychiatric ward.

Story Arc: Olsen-bandens flugt over plankeværket and Olsen-banden over alle bjerge form one, and the latter's ending only makes sense if you remember plot details of the former one. Specifically: when Egon gets caught, he gets sent to an insane asylum instead of jail, which is foreshadowed at the beginning of the former; meanwhile, Benny and Kjeld take care of a coat which was swapped with the coat of the subject of a minor plan at the end of the previous movie, and turns out the money which they wanted to steal in first place.

That's What She Said: In Jönssonligan dyker upp igen, Biffen uses the trope name verbatim about something he just said himself and burst out in laughter at his own joke... As the other present characters just look at each other in unamused silence.ExplanationHe specifically said "Nu börjar det dra ihop sig. ... Som flickan sade!" - the first sentence would idiomatically translate to "It's almost time," but literally means "It's starting to pull together"...)

Game Changer: By the beginning of Olsen-bandens flugt over plankeværket, Egon is actually scared of returning to the jail; a change in prison management means that he won't be sent to his old room to conceive the next plan, the next time he gets caught doing something, he'll probably end up in insane asylum. And by the end of Olsen-banden over alle bjerge, this actually happens.

Downer Ending: At the end of Olsen-banden over alle bjerge, Egon is put into the psychiatric division of the prison as an incurable criminal. While it's common for Egon to end up in prison at the end of a movie, not only is it implied to not be temporary this time, but it was also supposed to be the last movie (and was for 17 years). If a 14th movie hadn't eventually been made, Egon would canonically have spent the rest of his life in prison.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Olsen-banden / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: In the first movie, Kjeld and Yvonne have three children, of which Børge is the middle-child. The oldest and the youngest, a boy and a girl, are gone by the next movie and never as much as alluded to again. Benny has a pregnant girlfriend and, by the end of the movie, at least one child. This is also never mentioned again. A group of prostitutes, who the gang happily frequents, figures into the plot, something which would not have happened later. The series would not really resemble what it became until the third movie, with the formula complete by Olsen-banden går amok, with the introduction of Inspector Jensen, Sergeant Holm, Bøffen and the capitalist villain that would figure into most of the sequels. Some of the early elements got a proper closure, though: In the first movie, the gang discusses Egon's plans in a certain pub. In the second movie, Egon's presence happens to be linked to the interior being destroyed, twice, making the keeper unfriendly to Egon, and thus the gang switches to bringing some beer to Kjeld's home. The early movies don't feature Jensen, bringing us The Klutz Mortensen instead (or him and his clones, given the series' loads of similar characters). He gets suspended in Olsen-bandens store kup due to the chief getting the mistaken impression that he has gone insane, so Jensen's appearance is not that sudden. In the Swedish movies, Rocky and his family is this. Since Harry is considered a mainstay of the group in popular culture, most people tend to forget that he wasn't even in the first movie and only had a supporting role in the second.

Intercontinuity Crossover: A particularly strange and roundabout one in Norway with Dickie Dick Dickens. Since the Norwegian translations of the Dickie Dick Dickens audio drama was such a hit, the Norwegian director of the audio drama got the original authors' permission to write a few new adventures for Norwegian radio where the infamous Chicago gangster Dickie Dick Dickens visited Norway. The last and most obscure of these had Dickens team up with the Norwegian Egon Olsen for a minor coup. Perhaps even weirder: In 2010, the Gang appeared in a Danish-written Donald Duck comic, in which Donald heard about Egon Olsen on the radio, and after accidentally locking himself out of Scrooge's office when he was supposed to be watching it, got the idea of hiring the Olsen Gang to help him break back in.

Hollywood Density: Played straight in movie 6. Egon should have realized much earlier, that a bag containing diamonds should be much heavier… Benny and Kjeld have obviously fallen for this one in Olsen-banden på sporet, although it is ultimately averted. Had they known how much 90 million crowns in gold ingots weighed, they would certainly not have volunteered to do the loading. Also, Benny might have gotten a sturdier truck. Similarly in Jönssonligan får guldfeber, where the Briefcase Full of Money contains 55 million SEK in diamonds and gold bars, but routinely get mixed up with two other briefcases (containing beer and fishing gear, respectively), which should be noticeably lighter.

comment
Casting Gag: Happened a few times. The lovesick Danish tourist who pursues a reluctant Benny in the prologue to Olsen Bandens Sidste Bedrifter is played by Lily Weiding, Morten Grunwald's longtime girlfriend (and later wife). In the Danish Olsenbanden Jr. movie, Egon's father is played by Henning Sprogøe, the son of Ove Sprogøe, who of course played Egon in all 14 original movies. In Jönssonligan spelar högt, actor Johan Ulveson plays Sickan's younger brother Sven-Ingvar "Sivan" Jönsson. What makes this a gag is that Ulveson previously had played a character who encountered Sickan's actor Gösta Ekman (playing himself) in the film Ogifta Par, and Ulveson's character had suggested that he could play Sickan's younger brother, should another movie be made. The character of Sivan himself had been introduced a year earlier in Lilla Jönssonligan och cornflakeskuppen, though.

Sticky Fingers: Melvin from Jönssonligans största kupp is an improbably skilled and possibly cleptomaniac pickpocket, leading to a number of funny moments. At the end, he pickpockets the chief of police's wallet and the key to the handcuffs he's currently wearing, without even knowing what it is.

Things do develop in small ways, such as Børge getting older and eventually going off to get married, but on the whole, status quo usually ends up reasserting itself. Even on the very few occasions when the gang do succeed with their coup, they will either at the very end of the movie or the beginning of the next one wind up losing everything, and Egon will wind up in jail for crimes that may or may not have been connected to the coup.

Action Prologue
 Olsen-banden / int_77414bc2
comment
Action Prologue: Most of the Danish and Norwegian movies have a pre-title sequence consisting of a small heist which fails and lands Egon in prison. While early entries used these to provide an Establishing Character Moment for Egon with his friends escaping and him pretending to be part of scenery while police arrives, later ones started to make these heists funny. Interestingly, in Olsen-banden på sporet, Bøffen pulls a heist on Egon.

Real Life Writes the Plot
 Olsen-banden / int_786bf97f
comment
Real Life Writes the Plot: Several instances: Egon smokes his perpetual cigars less and less (instead chewing on the cold stumps) because actor Ove Sprogøe didn't smoke in real life. Børge after Olsen-banden ser rødt, as mentioned under Put on a Bus on the main page. Sources differ about the reasons (alternatively drug problems or Jes Holtsø feeling that he hadn't gotten his fair share of the success). In the Cold Opening of the 6th Danish movie, which takes place on Mallorca, Kjeld has caught a stomach bug and constantly has to run offscreen to find a bathroom. This was written into the script because Poul Bundgaard was playing in a revue in Denmark and could only come to Spain on his day off. Sickan is only the leader of the first five (of eight) Jönssonligan movies because the actor Gösta Ekman d.y. got involved with the first series of Martin Beck movies.

Celebrity Paradox
 Olsen-banden / int_7b8b3def
comment
Celebrity Paradox: The Norwegian gang tried to break in at the biggest cinema in Oslo, during a screening of a popular theatre production which had been adapted for cinema at the same time. The movie contained a number of skits, among them a monologue presented by actor Arve Opsahl (who also played Egon Olsen). Benny got distracted by the movie, and Egon had to haul him out, while Benny explained that it was so funny to watch "that angry man" (Opsahl). Egon angrily retorted that he should mind his job, and not get distracted by such drivel. Opsahl was present both on screen in the cinema, as well as backstage in his role as Egon Olsen, in a subtle and brief Show Within a Show, because he also was on screen in the Olsen Gang movie.

Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: Unlike his Danish counterpart, Wall-Enberg is always shown as being the same character from movie to movie, and hires or agrees to buy something from Sickan and the gang on several occasions. Despite stabbing them in the back every single time, Sickan keeps taking him up on his offers or offering something himself, often hoping to do the same to Wall-Enberg for all the times he's betrayed Sickan or his team.

Suspect Is Hatless: Played with in the Norwegian 1977 installment. Bøffen grabs Egon´s money and runs away with it, whereupon Valborg calls the police, describing him as "somewhat fat and ordinary". The police actually runs with it, and when Bøffen gets arrested at the end of the movie, the policeman who arrests him gives the same description. The officer in charge concludes with delight: "That´s him!"

World of Ham: Part of the movies' charm is that the characters are larger than life, and that Egon tends to take this the longest. This is lampshaded at one point, where Egon hides from some policemen by pretending to be a mannequin holding a sign saying "Gamle krukker" ("Old jars"); "krukke" (jar) is Danish slang for a Large Ham.

Breaking Out the Boss: Never happens in the original series, surprisingly enough - Egon can break his way into pretty much everywhere but never even once tries to break out of Vridsløse prison. The Swedish movies do this twice, however: Jönssonligan på Mallorca downplays this when Vanheden and Harry conspire to free Sickan while he is being transferred from one prison to the other. Jönssonligans största kupp starts with one of these as Vanheden and Harry attempt to break Busé out. This goes awry when Busé lets his cellmate go over the prison wall first only to get caught before he can make it out himself.

Canon Discontinuity: The Spinoff Babies, courtesy of the age of the original actors, and the time of release for the first movies. In Norway, the first movie was aired in 1969, showing Kjell as a father of four. The last of the "jr" movies is set in 1960, giving Kjeld nine years to grow up, marry and have four children, one of whom is more than nine years old. The Norwegian 1982 installation gave the year Kjell and Valborg´s wedding: 1957! The two should then have been married at the time of "the black gold", being set in 1960. Arve Opsahl, who played the grown up Egon in Norway, was born in 1925. The continuity of the spinoff franchise would have made more sense if the "junior" gang had made their shenanigans in the thirties, rather than in the fifties. But then again, they never would have a chance to play rock`n roll. In the Danish version, Egon is said to be born in either 1925 or 1927 (the actor was born in 1919), so the movies should again have taken place in the thirties. The first three Swedish Lilla Jönssonligan movies have the same issue with taking place during the wrong decade, but at least still take place in the past. The fourth, final one doesn't even try, instead taking place in the modern day ( as in, the 2000's). On another note, the Lilla Jönssonligan series stars Harry even though one of Rocky's lines in Varning för Jönssonligan implies he should have been there instead.

Multiple-Choice Past: The Norwegian Spinoff Babies movies (ie. the Olsenbanden Jr. series) features this due to taking its parent series' Status Quo Is God tendency and running with it to create more of a Negative Continuity effect: The junior version of the gang, though still often involved in coups, schemes and small ways of cheating, are both more heroic and vastly more successful than their adult selves — but no matter how many times the junior version of the gang are hailed as heroes at the end of a movie, at the beginning of the next one they're back to being viewed as junior hooligans, distrusted by the police. The orphanage Egon lives at has a different corrupt and greedy head every movie, even the ones where the previous movie didn't end with the old head being arrested for corruption. The straightest example of the trope, to the point of becoming a Running Gag, is that each movie has a different version of the story of how Egon first got his trademark bowler hat: In one movie he swipes it of a random adult as part of a disguise, in another he inherits it from his long-lost grandfather... and in one movie, it's a gift from the King of Norway.

Ascended Extra: While Harry only appears in two of the danish movies (his actor, Preben Kaas, also appeared in one additional movie, in a different role), in the Norwegian and Swedish series, possibly thanks to the fact that both their versions had the role played by a popular and beloved comedian (Harald Heide-Steen Jr in Norway and Björn Gustafson in Sweden), Harry is a mainstay of the series. As such, in the Norwegian series he's a regular auxillary gang member who appears in roughly half the movies (and the movies featuring him usually upgrade him to titular character, like Olsenbanden og Dynamitt-Harry or Olsenbanden og Dynamitt-Harry går amok), and in the Swedish series he's a permanent member of the gang from Jönssonligan får guldfeber on.

Status Quo Is God
 Olsen-banden / int_a6e8221e
comment
Status Quo Is God: Things do develop in small ways, such as Børge getting older and eventually going off to get married, but on the whole, status quo usually ends up reasserting itself. Even on the very few occasions when the gang do succeed with their coup, they will either at the very end of the movie or the beginning of the next one wind up losing everything, and Egon will wind up in jail for crimes that may or may not have been connected to the coup. Subverted in Jönssonligan pÃ¥ Mallorca, the fifth Swedish movie. Considering that the previous movies usually ended with them earning a lot of money yet being out of money in the next,note which is especially jarring when the first movie ends with them earning 20 million dollars yet seemingly not having any of it left by the second the movie does give an explanation for where their loot from the last film went: they ended up investing their funds from the 4th in stocks that tanked, and may also have used some of it to finance Doris' new business in Mallorca.

Karma Houdini: Wall-Enberg from the Swedish movies only gets arrested twice: at the end of the first movie, and in one of the comic strips (in the latter case for a crime he didn't commit). Mafioso Motzarella from the 2nd Danish movie and Sonia from the 4th.

Only Known by Their Nickname: Rocky in the 2015 Swedish reboot is named Denise Östlund, but the only time anyone says "Denise" out loud is when Vanheden reads her name on a document (and she's not even present at the time). The mail slot on her apartment door reads "Rocky Östlund", and even the police treat "Rocky" like it's her first name.

Gray Rain of Depression
 Olsen-banden / int_a8982539
comment
Gray Rain of Depression: It only rains once in the original Danish series: when, at the end of Olsen-banden over alle bjerge, Egon has been arrested and faces life imprisonment, Yvonne has left Kjeld, and the gang didn't get the money. However, it's due to the rain that Benny discovers something important... Jönssonligan och Mallorca uses this in the beginning to create a contrast between Vanheden, Harry and Doris enjoying themselves in sunny Mallorca while Sickan is left behind all alone in a grey and rainy Stockholm. It is still raining in the next scene taking place in Stockholm, which is far more mundane (the police are just informed of Sickan being out of the country).

Con Men Hate Guns
 Olsen-banden / int_acd599b6
comment
Con Men Hate Guns: Discounting the Early-Installment Weirdness that's the pre-credit scene of Olsen-banden på spanden (and that's a water pistol), the gang never uses a weapon. Jönssonligan lampshades this when M.A.Busé joins them in Jönssonligan och den svarta diamanten and asks why they don't use any weaponry, prompting Vanheden to demonstrate why they don't need it. Even in the Darker and Edgier Swedish 2015 reboot, the gang almost entirely forgoes weaponry. Rocky uses projectile weapons twice during the movie, but none of them are regular guns: the first is a dart gun with tranquilizer darts to nonlethally subdue two security guards, and the other is a paintball gun that's only used to hit a switch through a small hole in a window.

Clock Tower

Clock Tower: One of the most memorable scenes in the series happens in Olsen-banden går i krig. Bøffen places Egon in front of the clock on the Copenhagen Town Hall Tower, waiting for the big clock hand to come down and send Egon more than 70 meters down to his death. Kjeld and Benny discover him in the nick of time, but when they try to free him, all three end up hanging on the clock hands, which in turn creates chaos in the mechanism knocking out Bøffen and fellow criminal The Black Baron. This scene is also famously recreated in the Swedish version, Jönssonligan får guldfeber.

Catchphrase
 Olsen-banden / int_b01abe4f
comment
Catchphrase: The regular characters all have a few, although these vary somewhat between the different versions: Egon: "I have a plan," "No, no, no!" and "It's all timed and organized."In Danish"Jeg har en plan," "Nej, nej, nej!" and "Det hele er timet og tilrettelagt." Meanwhile, Sickan replaces the last one with "Timed and prepared down to the last detail" and tends to respond to specific statements, especially Vanheden praising his smarts, with "Of course!"In Swedish"Tajmad och klar in i minsta detalj" — "tajmad" originally a form of Gratuitous English that was integrated into Swedish due to overuse — and "Självklart!" respectively Benny: "Bloody good, Egon!"Danish"Skidegodt, Egon!" The Norwegian Benny, who swears less, says "Brilliant, Egon!"Norwegian"Helmaks, Egon!" instead, and generally uses the word "helmaks"/"brilliant" whenever he's satisfied about something. Likewise, his Swedish counterpart Vanheden uses "Brilliant/Splendid, Sickan!" depending on the translator.Swedish"Lysande, Sickan!" The 2015 Vanheden instead has "You can do better"Swedish"Du kan bättre", something he mostly tells himself and also being his life philosophy, to not settle for second best. Kjeld: "I knew it, I knew it!", "What am I going to tell Yvonne?", and "Is it dangerous?"Danish"Jeg vidste det, jeg vidste det!", "Hvad skal jeg sige til Yvonne?" and "Er det farligt?" His counterpart Rocky in the Swedish version, despite only lasting two movies, also had a tendency to say "Voi, voi!" (Finnish for "oh dear"). Yvonne: "You've put me through a lot during all these years..."Danish"Meget har du budt mig gennem alle disse Ã¥r..." Dynamit-Harry in the Swedish version has two: "What a friggin' blast!"Swedish"Vilken jädra smäll!", although he will occasionally go with "vilken jävla smäll" if the situation warrants it and a nonsense phrase along the lines of "Haderajan" (although the beer which was named after this phrase spells it "Hadiraja"). 2015 Harry instead has "Blow me up in the ass!"Swedish"Spräng mig i arslet!", used in the sense of "I'll be damned!" 2020 Harry doesn't have any catchphrase, but gets in one reference to one of the original Harry's by exclaiming "What a friggin' evening!" after a successful nighttime heist—"evening" in Swedish being "kväll", rhyming with "smäll". The Norwegian Olsenbanden Jr movies has the gang use their adult catchphrases a lot, but there are a few catchphrases unique to the series: Benny: "I've got to agree with Kjell/Egon there."Norwegian"Der mÃ¥ jeg være enig med'n Kjell/Egon." Usually said when Kjell and Egon are in a conflict and Benny tries to be reasonable about taking one of their sides. Hermansen Sr: "You can make a note of that, Holm." and "Holm, Holm, Holm! What am I going to do about you?!"Norwegian"Det kan De godt notere Dem, Holm." and "Holm, Holm, Holm! Hva skal jeg gjøre med Dem?!" Ingrid: "That's what my aunt says, and she knows what she's talking about!", generally following some negative opinion on men in general. She'll also without fail say "The same goes for you too, Benny!" whenever Valborg either tells Kjell off or invites him along somewhere.Norwegian"Det sier tanta mi, og hu veit hva hu snakker om!" and "Det gjelder deg óg, Benny!"

Mickey Mousing: Invoked in one of the most famous scenes of the series is in "Olsen Banden Ser Rødt", in which the gang breaks into the royal theater of Copenhagen while the orchestra is playing (a rearranged version of) the Overture to the Danish national play "Elverhøj". As the break-in requires many noisy tools and explosives, Egon has brought a note sheet so that he can time the crime perfectly to the music so they won't be heard. It's quite brilliantly done.note At last, a literal case of Orchestral Bombing! Jönssonligan spelar högt borrows from this plot; Harry uses a jackhammer to drill into a vault, camouflaged by Das Rheingold going on above them. Sivan literally conducts the drilling by reading the notes at the same time. In the 2020 Swedish reboot Se upp för Jönssonligan, this has become an integral part ot Sickan's main heist gimmick — every heist in the movie is timed and planned around a specific piece of music.

Take That!: The Swedish series brings up contemporary politicians twice in a clearly derisive manner: Jönssonligan får guldfeber features a scene where Vanheden directly mentions following in politican Ove Rainer's footsteps while discussing what tax plans to make for the millions they are trying to earn. This is a direct reference to Rainer having been accused of making investments with the purpose of lowering his own taxes as much as possible. Jönssonligan på Mallorca has a line where Vanheden is comparing despotic figures with a Napoleon Complex, with his full list being "Napoleon, Hitler, Lenin and Feldt." The last one presumably refers to Kjell-Olof Feldt, the Minister of Finance and Trade at the time the movie was recorded.

Hypocritical Humor: In Varning för Jönssonligan, the gang robs Wall-Enberg while disguised as police with uniforms and a cop car they stole from the police station. When they run out, Sickan yells at Vanheden for leaving their car unlocked, and Vanheden replies with "Nobody would steal a cop car, right?" Cue the trio looking up into the air in realisation for a moment. Jönssonligan på Mallorca does this a bit more subtly early on; Sickan is seen telling his compatriots (who he is pretty cross with at the time) that he prefers working "on his own without any help"... Minutes after the beginning of the movie showed that he will still plan imaginary heists and act like his compatriots are there when they aren't (see Go Mad From the Isolation above).

Shout-Out: To Star Wars, of all things. In Olsen Banden - deruda'(1977) the Gang breaks into a bank disguised as three boxes on wheels. When Kjeld is separated from the others at one point, his box starts bopping up and down and squeaking like an agitated R2-D2. In the first Swedish film, Vanheden gives Sickan a thumbs up and tells him "Gröna sidan upp, va?" ("Green side up, alright?") which references a (then popular) radio comedy act by Hans "Hasse" Alfredson.

Removable Steering Wheel: In Olsenbanden og Dynamitt-Harry (the second film of the Norwegian series), Harry tries to drive while heavily intoxicated.

Taken further in the Swedish Jönssonligan på Mallorca, where the gang tries to escape by car in the narrow city streets. When they get cornered, they quickly remove the steering wheel and pass it to Harry in the back, who attaches it there and drives away in the other direction. The mechanical intricacies of said car has not been brought up until then, so it all comes as a big surprise.

Series Continuity Error
 Olsen-banden / int_ca95473c
comment
Series Continuity Error: Egon says that he was born on March 12, 1925 in Olsen-banden på spanden, but his entry in Mortensen's rogues' gallery in Olsen-bandens store kup claims May 3rd, 1927. The actor is even older, having been born on December 21st, 1919. To make it weirder, Egon starts displaying signs of old age by Olsen-banden deruda' (forgetfulness), when the character would only have been around 50. A propos of Egon's forgetfulness: Both this and his decreasing vision in Olsen-banden ser rødt are used for gags in one movie and then dropped. Even the very old Egon from the last movie reads without glasses and seems to have an excellent memory. Instead, he has become hard of hearing. In Olsen-banden på spanden, Egon celebrates having been released from prison for the tenth time. But then, in Olsen-banden går i krig, he is welcomed in Vridsløse prison for the tenth time, when even on-screen he's been there nearly twice as often. Børge's girlfriend Fie is already pregnant when they get married in Olsen-banden ser rødt. Not only is their son not born until three movies later, but Egon is explicitely said to have served nine months at the beginning of the movie and this is given as the reason why he didn't know about the impending birth.

The replacement actor, Tommy Kenter, is 17 years younger and by the time of production was a middle-aged man. During production of Jönssonligan dyker upp igen, Gösta Ekman d.y. had a life-threatening accident on set that hospitalised him. His brother Mikael was used as a stand-in for certain shots where Sickan's face would not be seen well while Gösta was recovering.

In My Language, That Sounds Like...
 Olsen-banden / int_d9723630
comment
German/English is rarely subtitled in either the Danish or Swedish original, despite often using misunderstandings over lingual false friends for comedy. For instance, somebody talking about „Köstliche Instrumente“ („delicious instruments“ instead of kostbar/valuable) or a misunderstanding about "möglich/mögligt" (the former German for "possible", the latter Swedish for "moldy").

Red Herring: When Egon lays out the plan in Olsen-bandens flugt over plankeværket, he goes into detail about the shady dealings of the insurance company and its CEO, only to then say "But that doesn't interest us at all" and start expositing about a different character instead.

Adaptation Name Change
 Olsen-banden / int_dc057cf3
comment
Adaptation Name Change: In the 2015 Swedish movie, Harry is given the surname Berglund. While it was never specified if Rocky from the first two Swedish movies was a given name or a nickname, the 2015 movie gives him a Gender Flip and names her Denise Östlund with "Rocky" as her nickname. But nobody calls her Denise anyway. Harry is never called "Dynamit-Harry" in either of the Swedish reboots. Justified for 2020 Harry who has nothing to do with explosives, but 2015 Harry is even more adept with them than the original. 2015 Charles-Ingvar is never called "Sickan" either.

Inspired by…: Part of the inspiration to the Olsen Gang came from "Det borende X" ("The drilling X"), a Danish burglar, who in the years 1909-31 carried out a string of meticulously planned and technically complicated safe-burglaries. When he was finally caught it turned out that he had used the money to keep up appearances as a respectable greengrocer and family man.

Universal Driver's License
 Olsen-banden / int_dd797c1c
comment
Benny's original actor, Morten Grundwald, once commented that the only vehicle he didn't get to drive despite his character's Universal Driver's License was a plane, and mused that that may have been due to budget constraints. This may have inspired a scene in the second Norwegian Olsenbanden Junior, in which a twelve-year-old Benny does get to fly a small plane, claiming to have learned how from reading the Biggles books. (He gets it in the air but doesn't know how to get it down again, needing instructions over the radio on how to land.)

Television Geography: The Clock Tower scene is guilty of this both in the Danish and Swedish versions. The Danish one claims there are offices in an area which is free to the public, and the actual clock tower is smaller in real life. Meanwhile, the corresponding building in the Swedish version doesn't have a clock tower at all!

Last-Name Basis/First-Name Basis: The Swedish protagonists have an odd case of using both tropes at the same time. Ragnar Vanheden generally calls everyone else by their first name or nicknames, but most other characters - even his cousin in his first appearance - call him Vanheden in return. That said, Harry starts calling him Ragnar when he formally joins the gang, and in the video games the only one calling Vanheden that is himself.

Disguised in Drag
 Olsen-banden / int_e37f19
comment
Disguised in Drag: Kjeld does this in Olsen-banden på spanden, even introducing himself as „the young girl who cleans the room“. Olsen-banden over alle bjerge provides us with Egon assuming the identity of Egonne in order to pass as a maid in a hotel. He also does this in one of the Olsenbanden Jr movies at the age of twelve, spending a short while disguised as a girl... and pulling it off quite well, after a couple of false starts. In the Swedish movies, Sickan does it a total of three times - in Jönssonligan får guldfeber, in Jönssonligan på Mallorca, and the first game. The latter two are relatively convincing apart from the Larynx Dissonance, although it is implied that the first attempt only succeeded because their mark had very bad eyesight. Harry joins in on it in Mallorca as well (using the nickname "Harriet"), with slightly less convincing results.

They show up throughout the movie doing his bidding prior to that.

We Need a Distraction: Distracting people is a common element in Egon's plans, and it is often down to Kjeld to play this part. For example, by telling a guard that he has an appointment at twelve o'clock just before midnight. And when the guard tells him to come again tomorrow he does so... A few minutes after midnight!

Disco Dan: While the series clearly takes place in the seventies, certain sections of society all seem to be decades behind in clothes and mentality, from an era of all men wearing hats and suits. The police seems to be wearing very similar sets of plaid suits as casual wear, with petit-fours for the upper echelon. Much comedy is derived from the contrast between the liberal ways of the seventies and the characters who are perpetually about two steps behind it.

One-Steve Limit: Depending on whether you interpret Bang-Johansen/Hallandsen/Holm Hansen as one character or Inexplicably Identical Individuals, they avert this. Averted in the Swedish series in two ways: There are technically two Criminal Inspectors named Persson. The first is a Large Ham who gets fired at the end of film 3; the second (a much calmer and savvier man) takes his place in film 4 onwards. Lilla Jönssonligan och cornflakeskuppen gives us the in-series explanation for Charles-Ingvar Jönsson always getting called "Sickan": there was a mixup between him and his twin sister in school once. Oddly enough, the credits then list them as "Sickan Jönsson" and "Sikkan Jönsson" respectively.

Distracted by the Sexy
 Olsen-banden / int_f10d3363
comment
Distracted by the Sexy: While in Paris, Egon decides to hire a prostitute as an additional helping hand. However, interlanguage communication problems leads Benny to stop helping Egon with a heist, thus forcing the team to make another one. A lesser example happens in Olsen-bandens store kup, where a competing trio of thieves utilizes their human resources to steal just stolen money that Egon for whatever reason decided to hide in plain sight. Varning för Jönssonligan features two instances immediately after each other. First Vanheden spots a woman on the sidewalk while driving and gently crashes his car into another as a result. Then Sickan is shown accepting a plate with drinks from a stewardess on his flight, turns his head to watch her walk down the plane... And tips the plate over as a result. Exploited in Jönssonligan dyker upp igen: the gang utilizes an unknowing Doris for this purpose (the only time in the Swedish movies they do) to distract Wall-Enberg while they infiltrate his illegal casino.

The Swedish movies replace this gag with a few others featuring the gang's Chevrolet Impala.

In the first movie it's also a running gag for Rocky to simply mutter "Skitbil" ("shitcar") whenever it acts up.

Suspiciously Similar Substitute
 Olsen-banden / int_f5a3e496
comment
Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Egon's Swedish counterpart, "Sickan" Jönsson, only appears in the first five movies. In the final three, he's had a nervous breakdown and been placed in the psychiatric ward, and the gang has a different leader for each subsequent movie. In chronological order, they are: Dr. Max Adrian Busé (Sickan's psychiatrist), Herman Melvin (Buse's cellmate) and Sven-Ingvar "Sivan" Jönsson, Sickan's brother (with the aid of their grandmother). The writers did go to the effort of having Melvin and Sivan have twists related to their similarities and differences to their predecessors (Melvin isn't the criminal genius Sickan and Busé was — he mostly relies on a plan Busé told him while they were cellmates. Sivan is by nature a similar character to his brother, but has spent much of his life trying to be different to distance himself from his criminal brother, and doesn't give in to his tendencies until a while into his starring movie).

He does it to show it's a knockoff though. And then played straight when Egon gives the genuine vase to Børge's fiancee to hold for a moment...

Running Gag
 Olsen-banden / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: Any vehicle Benny drives will invariably run out of gas. He will then, without fail, exclaim that he's just filled the tank. This gets Parodied in a couple of the Olsenbanden Jr movies, where Benny generally rides a bike, which doesn't need gas... but it can get a flat tire, or lose a wheel, which is what happens. The Swedish movies replace this gag with a few others featuring the gang's Chevrolet Impala. The trunk won't close properly and the front falls apart at the slightest provocation, yet Vanheden tends to get pretty defensive if anyone points out what a state it's in. In the first movie it's also a running gag for Rocky to simply mutter "Skitbil" ("shitcar") whenever it acts up. Egon occasionally gets Bound and Gagged by the villains. In each case, he's gagged with his cigar stub still in his mouth, and when the gag is removed the cigar swups out of his mouth. While we're at villains, the Tap on the Head also counts. In one movie Egon already anticipates it and hands over his hat to prevent damage to it. See any stack of barrels or barrel-like objects? Expect it to collapse. The Book Ends of Egon being released from prison at the beginning of the movie and going back there at the end. Speaking of Egon's releases, these also follow a standard pattern. Becomes Lampshaded when, each time there's something not looking quite as it should, we get a brief shot of what the scene should look like instead. Safes by Fran(t)z Jäger, Berlin. Lampshaded again with Francis Hunter, Chicago, Francis Hunter, Birmingham or François Chasseur et Cie (all direct translations of the name). Egon gets into contact with the Corrupt Corporate Executive of the Week through his cellmate in prison. Yvonne's casual announcement of the arrival of the police. Benny's little piece of metal that he uses to open doors or crack any machine with a coin slot. The outlandish resources that are the core of Egon's plans. In the Olsenbanden Jr movies, on a few occasions Hermansen and Holm find themselves needing a vehicle like a bus or a boat, and Holm borrows one from his uncle. Said vehicle is always stuck in reverse and can only go backwards, whereupon Holm will quote his uncle and say "even if it goes backwards, it still goes forwards!" And, probably the most famous one, the image of the gang walking one behind the other in cadence (with Benny having to occasionally do a little skip to get back into it).

Pet the Dog: Varning för Jönssonligan's plan requires a city bus, meaning that the gang needs to steal one, which they do when the driver needs to stop for a bathroom break. However, Sickan and Vanheden are nice enough to leave the driver a lunch by the side of the road. After the initial shock wears off, the driver shrugs and sits down to eat. (One of the Danish movies has a similar scene.)
