Unlike some Star Wars fans, I have always been very fond of the Ewoks. This affection led me to meet one of the lesser-known Star Wars celebrities. At a Star Wars convention in London some years ago, I saw that Katie Purvis, who played the Maternal Ewok in Return of the Jedi, was there and she was the only actor who had no line to meet her. I had to go and have a chat. She was such a lovely lady. More recently, at Star Wars Celebration 2015 convention we went to a panel presentation on vintage Ewok Collectibles. Who knew there were so many?! I was inspired, and although I already had a few cuddly collectibles, I decided the time had come to expand my collection of all things Ewok!
