Famous Five Art Nostalgia – Character Portrait: Julian [François]
Introductory post
Masterpost
Character profile (adapted from Wikipedia):
Julian is the oldest of the Five, cousin to George and elder brother to Dick and Anne. He is tall, strong and intelligent as well as caring, responsible and kind. His cleverness and reliability are often noted by Aunt Fanny. He is the leader of the group and is very protective towards Anne and sometimes, to her frustration, towards George. Twelve years old at the start of the series, Julian is the most mature of the group but, although well-meaning, his manner can at times come over as overbearing, pompous or priggish.
In Claude Voilier’s continuation series ‘Les Cinq’, Julian can often be found correcting Dick for his colloquialisms or cheeky barbs. Despite being the voice of caution, he can rarely stop his headstrong cousin George from acting recklessly.

And as a bonus, here is probably my favourite scene featuring Julian when, in #03 Five Run Away Together, he masterfully faces off the Sticks who would have denied the Five their meal. Enjoy!

Famous Five Art Nostalgia – Character Portrait: Anne [Annie]
Introductory post
Masterpost
Character profile (adapted from Wikipedia):
Anne is the youngest in the group, and generally takes care of the domestic duties during the Five's various camping holidays. As the youngest (ten years old in the first book of the series), she is more likely than the others to be frightened, and does not really enjoy the adventures as much as her brothers and her cousin. She sometimes lets her tongue run away with her, but ultimately she is as brave and resourceful as the others. She likes doing the domestic things such as planning, organising and preparing meals, and keeping where they are staying clean and tidy, be it a cave, house, tent or caravan. In Smuggler's Top it is suggested she is claustrophobic, as she is frightened of enclosed spaces, which remind her of bad dreams. But the adventures invariably lead the Five into tunnels, down wells, and into dungeons and other enclosed spaces, demonstrating how brave she really is.
Anne keeps the same general characterisation in Claude Voilier’s continuation series ‘Les Cinq’, although she occasionally insists that her brothers and cousin take part in household-y chores.

Famous Five Art Nostalgia – Character Portraits: Aunt Fanny [Tante Cécile]
Introductory post
Masterpost
Character profile (adapted from Wikipedia):
Aunt Fanny is George's mother, and aunt to Julian, Dick and Anne. She is married to Uncle Quentin, and is, through most of Blyton's Famous Five novels, the principal maternal figure in the lives of the children. She is a very kind and easy-going woman, and shows considerable patience with her husband over his short temper and absent-mindedness.
In Claude Voilier’s continuation series ‘Les Cinq’, Aunt Fanny remains ever supportive of her husband, daughter, niece and nephews, but also takes on some hobbies such as antiquing, leading the children to some of their adventures.
