Wallace and Gromit are great! Fact! And eccentric inventor, that looks like Prince Charles if he were bald, and a very clever dog whose eyebrows express his feeling more than words, makes for very enjoyable bank holiday viewing. The first 'film' (I put it like this because they are only about 30mins long) saw the duo fly to the moon. The third saw a cyborg dog. But this one, the second, surly wins it. A penguin disguised as a chicken, giant robotic trousers, a diamond robbery, and the greatest chase sequence ever, make this the best claymation film ever. Lets star at the beginning. Its Gromits birthday. He gets given a giant pair of mechanical trousers that Wallace makes to help take Gromit for his "walkies". Bills are too expensive so they have to rent out the spare room. A small penguin takes the room, however in the process kicking Gromit out the house, and stealing the trousers for a robbery. The only one who can stop him is Gromit. I wont give too much away, but its worth watching the first 20, very enjoyable, minutes just for the train chase at the end. I have these on DVD and i will never tire of that sequence. Its just brilliant!!
