I was just watching a movie where they prefaced the story by asking “Out of the wide range of English literature, who would you consider to be the most fabulous character?” Instantly I went “Whinnie the Pooh!” then after thinking about it I followed closely with “Elizabeth Bennett or Mr. Darcy” then, “a G. A. Henty book Hero”… However in their list of fabulous English literature characters none of the ones I chose showed up. Perhaps if I had gone on thinking long enough I might have picked Robin Hood(the first name they mentioned), but I certainly wouldn’t have picked some of the characters they picked. And since the movie was “The Wind in the Willows” they finally settled on Mr. Toad of Toad Hall as the most fabulous character. While Mr. Toad doesn’t appeal to me, I did like the Mole though…
