Lost in Time People
In Season Four, Hilda bought a clock shop which had what seemed like an ordinary grandfather clock in the back room. However it turned out to be a magical Lost in Time clock from which certain people from past centuries or decades emerged. These people included:
Marie and Pierre Curie: In Ageing Not So Gracefully, the Curies became lost in time after having an argument (circa 1899). Marie was first to come from the clock. When Hilda got her to the house, she was spouting French, but Zelda turned her French to English with her magic. Pierre later turned up, and Hilda and Zelda tried to find out what attracted one Curie to the other. While Hilda danced with Pierre, Zelda worked with Marie. However, Hilda soon became too tired to dance, and Zelda soon got fed up of Marie's bossing her about, and accidentally setting the carpet on fire. Luckily, following another argument which Hilda and Zelda could hear from the kitchen, they started waltzing around the living room where Marie accidentally knocked over Zelda's vase. It is also revealed in season 3 that Marie dated Salem before cheating on him with Pierre.
Leif Ericson and Daniel Boone: In Salem's Daughter, Hilda and Zelda used the Lost in Time clock to get dates for Anabelle's wedding. Zelda selected Leif Ericson, and Hilda picked Daniel Boone. Daniel appeared again in the following episode, Love in Bloom (which aired before Salem's Daughter, but is set afterwards) in which Zelda learns that Hilda has been hiding him in the attic, and forces her to send him back. A running gag throughout Salem's Daughter is that Daniel is frequently mistaken for Davy Crockett, make Daniel replies "I´m Daniel Boone" a gets a little angry; this happens so often, when somebody (Salem) says he real name, he screams "I´M DANIEL BOONE! Oh, sorry..."

“The presence of a grandparent confirms that parents were, indeed, little once, too, and that people who are little can grow to be big, can become parents, and one day even have grandchildren of their own.
