Watership Down is an animated television series based on Richard Adams' novel of the same name. It was a co-production between Alltime Entertainment in the United Kingdom and Decode Entertainment in Canada, and it was produced by Martin Rosen, the director of the 1978 feature picture adaptation. Watership Down aired 39 episodes and three seasons on YTV in Canada and CITV in the UK from 1999 to 2001, albeit the latter did not air the third series. It starred a number of well-known British actors, including Stephen Fry, Rik Mayall, Phil Jupitus, Jane Horrocks, Dawn French, John Hurt, and Richard Briers, among others. Stephen Gately sang a fresh arrangement of Art Garfunkel's "Bright Eyes," which had been included in the 1978 feature picture, while Mike Batt and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra contributed an entirely new score. Composer Eric Robertson, together with David Greene and Mike Batt, were nominated for a Gemini Award for Best Original Music Score for a Dramatic Series for their work on the show in 2003. Some episodes from the adaptation were released on VHS and, later, DVD. In the United Kingdom, a Region 2 DVD box set containing all three seasons was published in October 2005.
