Yeh, it's a sweet one isn't it?

Did you read all the controversy around Watership Down being shown over the Easter weekend? We recorded it but I haven't shown it to DD yet and I'm not sure if I will just yet. I saw it when I was little and I remember loving it but being really upset at the same time.

I love Watership Down but did think it was a strange choice for family viewing on an Easter weekend!

From my experience most Disney films have at least one bit in that young children could find really scary, but Watership Down is on a whole other level!!

the song 'bright eyes' made me cry from the first time I heard it, long before I knew it was linked to Watership Down! DD wants to see it, but she gets very emotional very easily and I don't think I can cope with it yet!

Yes, that song always brings a lump to my throat as well. It was my 'lullaby' that my grandparents used to sing to me to get me to sleep.

It's one of those songs that instantly take you back to your childhood.
