Dandelion is a supporting character in the 2018 miniseries, Film, Book and TV Series Watership Down.
==Biography==
For the TV Series, He is first seen in episode 1 where is talking to his friend Hawkbit, who asks him if he thinks there’ll be a lot of does out this evening, to which he grumpily replies “Is that all you ever think about Hawkbit, does?” He is again seen with Hawkbit when Fiver warns them both about Sandleford being destroyed. He comes along with Hawkbit, Hazel, Fiver, Bigwig, Bluebelle and Blackberry when they leave to find a new home.
While they are resting somewhere, they are attacked by a murder of crows, they need a plan to get them away, and Dandelion decides to run off to lure them away. One of them manages to grab him and drags him up in the air but he luckily manages to escape.
A few days later it is implied that him and Hawkbit both have romantic feelings for Strawberry. After Strawberry walks away from Hawkbit and Dandelion walks up to him and Says “Somebody told her I have the white blindness and I think it was you”. The scene cuts away, and then when it cuts back to them, they have gotten into a fight over her which causes everyone to come out and break it up.
Everyone eventually temporarily leaves except him, Hawkbit and Strawberry. The three of them decide to dig out a warren. They fight over Strawberry again as Dandelion says he’ll help Strawberry dig while Hawkbit watches Kehar. Hawkbit asks why he has to watch Kehar and Dandelion lies that he’s afraid Kehar will attack him, so they are clearly arguing over Strawbery, she tells them to stop fighting or else she won’t be friends with them anymore. They stop fighting and the three of them dig out a warren.
He is later seen with Hawkbit, Fiver, Bluebelle and Blackberry when they are inspecting a railway crossing. Fiver walks out in front of a car, and almost gets run over before Dandelion risks his life by jumping out to save him from being run over.
After the does have escaped from Efrafa and came to Watership down, him and Hawkbit decide to stop fighting over Strawberry and let her make her decision. When Hawkbit is explaining to Strawberry that they will stop fighting over her and she says she will take some time to chose either Dandelion or Hawkbit, Hawkbit says not to take to long as there are now a lot of does at the warren and he might get a mate. This annoys Dandelion as Hawkbit didn’t say that when they rehearsed it. He asks Hawkbit why he said it and Hawkbit says it’s because he doesn’t want to end up alone forever.
Later that night, him and Hawkbit are out standing guard, watching for efrafan rabbits. Hawkbit starts banging on about how he thinks Strawberry loves him and Dandelion says he’s going to kill himself if he doesn’t shut up. They eventually encounter a few efrafan rabbits. Dandelion uses his legs to launch Hawkbit into the air and Hawkbit knocks them out.
At the end of the series. Him and Hawkbit both look at Strawberry with Bigwig (since she becomes his mate instead of one of them) and look disappointed. But they are both quickly distracted by another doe who they both chase after and likely start fighting over again.
==Personality==
He is shown to be a fairly grumpy rabbit as he usually gets annoyed with Hawkbit and yells at him. He is also a quiet rabbit as he has very few scenes where he actually says anything, and the only rabbits he’s ever really seen speaking to are Hawkbit and Strawberry. He is though a selfless rabbit as he risked his own life twice to save his friends, such as when he lured the crows away and saving Fiver from being run over. Due to his low amount of screen time, not a lot is known about his personality.
