Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Richard Adams hated the 1978 film's violence so much he approved this gentler series—then watched it still traumatize children anyway.
The Efrafa warren's 'Mark' system parallels totalitarian surveillance states; Adams based it on his WWII service and Orwellian anxieties.
