Originally a Trilogy of Stop Motion animation shorts by Nick Park following the Character Wallace and his
Dog Gromit (named after the piece of electronic equipment: A Grommet)
Through their adventures involving a pair of mechanical trousers and a
penguin, A small mischevious sheep, and trips to the moon in a homemade rocket.
Despite what you may read above, None of the episodes (including the film) are
based in, or on Wensleydale, Wallace loves the
cheese...That'
s about it.. The characters live at
62 West Wallaby Street, Wigan, Lancashire.
This is seen when Gromit collects the morning post, and the envelope shows a Wigan postcode.
