A good start to the series
Review date: 2005-12-08 Rating: 10 out of 10

This first volume is a good start to the series. It features the first 3 episodes, however many movie and book fans will probably dislike the fact that the series writers kind of fast forward through the whole Sandleford part of the story as the first episode begins with the rabbits as they just left Sandleford.
Anyways great animation and terrific voice work from the likes of celebrities like Rik Mayall (Keehar), Jane Horrocks (Hannah) and Phil Jupitas (Dandelion) whom appear through pretty much most of the series along with a lot of new voice actors.

Episode 1 just basically tells how the rabbits got to Watership Down.

Episode 2 shows the rabbits dealing with a weasel, as well as some of their own personal problems like will the bucks pitch in to help Blackberry (who had been changed to a female for the series) with the digging.

And Episode 3 which will probably be the best episode on the disk for movie and book fans as it introduces us to Cowslip's Warren with Stephen Fry as Cowslip himself.

Overall a great start to the series.
