Wallace & Gromit will always be one of my favourite Aardman characters, and I truly love the background history of Nick Park's groundbreaking career in animating A Grand Day Out. Now I wish to read the full script (if it still exists)...

It’s so sad that those old clay models used in the first three Wallace and Gromit movies are now gone. They were all lost in a fire, along with the storyboards.

I’m Japanese high school students but I love Wallace&Gromit. I want to watch not only making but also new movies.

A truly British institution - utterly brilliant, always love Wallace and Gromit! RIP Peter Sallis, whom I first knew of in Last of the summer wine. Thank you, Nick Park for this wonderful gift that all children - and adults, too absolutely adore!

I am a scale model builder. I've worked for many of the largest architectural firms in the world. Restored beautiful models of classic buildings for special exhibits. Exhibits that have traveled the world. I've even worked for Kermit the Frog on several of his, and his friend's, film adventures. - but if there's one place I really wish I had worked - even if it took six full years before the project is completed, it would have been Aardman. Beautiful work. Incredible detailing. Imaginative everything. I truly envy that I've never had this experience. I would have worked there for a piece of

Rest in peace Peter Sallis 😢. I've done stop-motion on and off and when I mention it it's like "stop motion" *not a clue*. "Wallace and Gromit" now they got it :P

Like Wallace with the help of his rocket - Nick flew out of his old life, making his progress towards his bright future.
And words cannot describe how happy I am for him.
