About this episode
Eleanor & Alasdair take you down to Watership City, where the grass is green and the girls are... hang on, where are all the girls?
We read Watership Down, Richard Adams's 1972 epic. It's Brer Rabbit meets Mad Max, but does the novel live up to the movie's grisly reputation? Is it really a kids' book? And why do we keep singing the X-Men theme?
