The hour long programme features an extensive interview with Wallace and Gromit creator Nick Park, as well as contributions from Peter Lord and David Sproxton from Aardman, as it follows the loveable clay character’s journey from film school project to Oscar winners.

Along the way Nick Park also talks about his animation of the dancing chickens in the Sledgehammer video and the role the video played in the development of Aardman, “it was an incredible milestone… a game-changer.”
