1) I love Willow and the brownies are amazing, although I couldn't define their accent as Welsh or Scottish really. I just love their comedy arguing ("You are drunk, and when you are drunk you forget that I AM IN CHARGE"), and their mad hair.

2) I would probably have to say that this is my favourite book- I know it's really impossible to choose one, but if forced at gunpoint...The reason is Tiffany's relationship to the land and her grandmother. Plus Pratchett's concept of witchcraft is most fully explained in this book, I think. And I love Tiffany, and the fact there's a heroine with dark hair who doesn't fully get on with people and reads everything she can lay her hands on, and is so tough and rescues people instead of being rescued. Plus the pictsies- I did think that maybe some Scottish people would be offended if it was made into a film, but I think most of them would love it. My mum's Scottish but she hasn't read the book so I can't do any unscientific opinion polls, sorry.
