I didn't think you'd want to watch it - it's so violent, but I love the bunnies, Hazel-raa and Fiver and the naughty sea-gull. You see if I told you it was on I would have made you cry.
I love the book too, I think the book is brilliant.
I had to watch Dr Who at the same time as they were both on freeview not normal Tv.

I've enjoyed the book inmensely and even have an autographed copy of it. About 30 years ago I attended a lecture by Richard Adams on the book.
The film is great too but I haven't seen it for a long time but I do have a book on the film. I like how they painted the british landscape.

wow, I read it and saw it as a kid but it's scary stuff! Brilliant in its way and very clever.
Keep hold of that autographed copy - it'll be worht something one day I hope!
I'll read it to my boys when they are bigger and the Waterbabies, with the little chimney sweep, can't remember who it was by but I read it when I was about 9 and it was brilliant too.

I guess it will be worth something but I will never part with me if I don't have to. I love the book and the memories.

it was on Channel Four yesterday
had a good cry at the end too.
The bright eyes sequence make me well up as well (same for hearing the song on the radio)
Somewhere I've got a non-english version of the single with one of the terrifying kiler rabid looking rabbits on the front.
I love this film, I've got the book but need to re-read it.
