MORE CHEESE, GROMIT?
As a kid growing up, Wallace & Gromit was always a sure shot winner. I mean, how could you not dig adventures featuring a crazy guy inventor with a weird head, big ears, and an exasperated dog that is obviously smarter than his owner?
As I've gotten older, I've rewatched the Wallace & Gromit films, and they've pretty much gotten more amusing with each viewing. 1993's The Wrong Trousers is the perfect example, with its subtle homage to Alexander Mackendrick's The Ladykiller's, and evil mastermind penguin Feathers McGraw's silent, but menacingly deadpan presence.
Anyway, it's been 20 years since the duo's first adventure in A Grand Day Out. The BBC's Culture Show recently went down to Aardman Animations HQ in Bristol to chat with the team, and you can watch the special show tonight on BBC 2 at 7PM!
You might even catch the homie Gavin Strange grinning like a madman on camera. Set your televisions to record.
