Hi folks, Just joined the group today- Watership Down is probably my favourite novel. I`ve been through about five copies since I first read it at University...
so who is your favourite rabbitr/ what's the best and/or worst parts of the book in your view? i think the shooting of haze, the destruction of the sandleford...

Hi Lisa! Well I have to say that I like all the rabbits in different ways, but my favorite though is Fiver, with Hazel and Bigwig as a very close second. I...
Hello there! *waves a friendly paw* Welcome to the (only slightly insane) warren, and do help yourself to flayrah. (And no, don't worry, it's not brought here...
Hi there, and welcome to the group. *waves paw* Ooh... welcome to 2004 come to that. =;) Hopefully you'll be happy here. I guess it's easy enough to buy a new...
Yikes, questions... My favourite rabbit is definitely Hazel for his bravery. I think he is a lot more uncertain than Fiver and Bigwig and finds himself in the...
Interesting comments about Hazel's uncertainty, and for the most part I agree. It's probably something some of us lose sight of, given that (at least after we...
Konbanwa, Pretty much in agreement about Bigwig having some doubts, actually, but fairly understandable when you`re conducting a clandestine operation to ...
dan you're so right. i had never thought of hazel in thisway. That's what's so good about this list that poeple bring fresh views and ideas on wd. hazel, now...

I quite agree about everyone's discription of Hazel. Hazel is the cheif rabbit, however there are times where he will doubt himself and his own advice and...
That's a good point, Lisa - I'd forgotten about Fiver's comment. It really points up a difference between the book and the film, in that Fiver's character is a...
A twofold reason for the subject line here. Firstly, the obvious one that this is the first post on the Group for an entire week, which I guess just shows...
Konbanwa Maybe they were all taken out as part of the development programme that eventually accounted for Sandleford. Incidentally, the language school I work...
I'm not certain that would work, though, as surely the rabbits would have noticed, if not around Sandleford itself then on their way thence to Newtown Common....
A strange idea I know, but is it not possible there *were* several other warrens near Sandleford, however many of them were destroyed in the flood the previous...
David man again re sandleford. After all in sandleford they had seen man every day. Aslo wasn't their a warren on wd before hazel's lot? remember the burrows...

Believe it or not, Richard Briers reaches the grand old age of 70 today. "A tidy few summers," as another well known Richard had it about his brother. So happy...
Hi Everyone! Thanks for the help David! I love Richard Briers! If anyone is interested, the BBC are doing a special programme, part of The Best Bristish Comedy...
Yep, an age-old topic, this. How do people regard the possibility that, in his way, Hazel *is* El-ahrairah? After all, the link is explicitly mentioned in the...
Always an interesting point of discussion. To quote Fiver "a Chief Rabbit must be El-Ahrairah to his warren and keep them from death." I agree that Hazel, in...
On Mon, 19 Jan 2004 11:25:39 -0000 "Loganberry" ... one ... My take is there is one Frith, one Black Rabbit, one El-ahrairah, and ultimately, one Woundwort....
