BUGS BUNNY

Digging for carrots in the corner of Leicester Square, and celebrating an 85th anniversary this year, is Bugs Bunny.

Eh…What’s up, doc?

Gracing a flower bed in the northeast of the square, Bugs Bunny is an unmistakable presence for visitors to Leicester Square.

Bugs first appeared in the cartoon A Wild Hare in 1940 and became the official mascot of Warner Bros. He has remained a global cultural icon ever since and is celebrating his 85th anniversary this year.

Bugs is best known for his roles in Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies. In this classic depiction of Bugs he can be seen eating a carrot alongside his mailbox, as he utters his famous catch phrase “Eh…What’s up, doc?” in his distinctive Brooklyn accent.
