Other Wallace and Gromit Movies

Synopses of Other Wallace and Gromit Features:

Cracking Contraptions:

Soccamatic - When Wallace takes Gromit to the park for a game of football, he plays to win. Unfortunately, he is constantly frustrated by Gromit¹s goalkeeping prowess. Wallace is forced to reveal his Soccamatic, a circa 1938 penalty taking machine he recently purchased mail order from Preston North End FC. It seems that Wallace has finally got the upper hand as balls whistle past the hapless dog. But Gromit has an ace up his sleeve.

Snoozatron - Getting to sleep can be a problem when you eat as much cheese as Wallace. His solution is the Snoozatron, a simple device to aid the restless insomniac. For Wallace, the machine is a triumph of precision engineering. For Gromit, his part in the machine's cycle is a regular chore he could do without.

Snowmanatron - It's time for the annual West Wallaby Street Snowman Competition and this time Wallace is determined to win. Gromit may be a dab hand (or paw) at sculpting but Wallace has his new Snowmanatron which will do the whole job at the touch of a few buttons. Wallace is thrilled with his resulting masterpiece but Gromit is left feeling rather flat.

Autochef - Breakfast is Wallace and Gromit¹s favorite meal. But why bother cooking yourself when you have an Autochef, the combined cooker and waiter on wheels? Wallace is anxious to prove that his troublesome invention is perfectly safe around the home. Gromit isn't so sure about the cheeky robot and he may have good reason to be wary.

Bullyproof Vest - It can be a hard life Up North and home security can be a problem these days. So perhaps Wallace is right to be scared when the lights go out one dark and stormy night. A cup of tea and a cracker should calm his nerves but who is that lurking in the shadows? It may be time to utilize the ultimate burglar deterrent, Wallace's fearsome Bully Proof Vest.

Shopper 13 It's just a short jaunt to the shops but it can become a daily chore when you have all that cheese to carry home. Wallace has decided to save his legs by initiating a program of guided shopping trolleys to the supermarket. Mission 13 is the big one; he's going for the largest ball of Edam on the shelf. All seems to be going well until disaster strikes on the return leg. Can the heroic Gromit save the day by piloting the stricken craft back to 62 West Wallaby street or will the cheese be lost forever?

Tellyscope It has always been Gromit's job to walk over and switch the TV channels on Wallace's aging set. Wallace decides to save his legs by inventing a simple remote control device. Unfortunately, though the machine provides fingertip control, it is hardly instant. When Wallace turns on the TV and is confronted by a hard-hitting penguin documentary, he needs to change the channel fast. That's when Wallace realizes the flaw in his design.

Turbo Diner Another chore Gromit dislikes is clearing the table after meals. Wallace's Turbo Diner is designed to do the job fast and efficiently; all they have to do is top up the electricity meter. Everything seems to be going well until the lights start flickering. 525 Crackervac Gromits daily chores include sweeping up, unfortunately Wallace wants to help. The 525 Crackervac will save Gromit's time and take the strain out of cleaning and it has a cracker sensor to boot! However, things don't go quite as Wallace planned and it's up to Gromit to save the day.

Cardomatic It's nearly Christmas and Wallace is getting into the festive spirit. He's decided to make some tasteful Christmas cards with the help of Gromit, lots of glitter and his brand new card-making machine. But Wallace is so carried away by the resulting masterpiece that he fails to notice the extraordinary scene unfolding in the garden.

A Grand Day Out Wallace likes a nice bit of cheese with his crackers, so when this eccentric inventor finds his fridge empty and the local corner shop shut for the Bank Holiday, he is forced to look further afield for his cheddar. His faithful dog Gromit is used to his master's flights of fancy but this time his ears prick up with excitement because our two plasticine heroes are about to blast off in their home-made rocket on the ultimate day trip. Wallace and Gromit are off to the moon!

The Wrong Trousers This time it's action and laughter all the way as our plasticine stars are plunged into a hilarious tale of skullduggery involving an extraordinary pair of automated trousers and a villainous penguin. Posing as an innocent lodger, the fiendish fish-eater sets about recruiting mild-mannered Wallace as an unwitting accomplice to his dastardly plot ­ a diamond heist with a technically advanced, trouser-inspired difference. It is left to the faithful Gromit to turn detective and save the day as malice and mayhem culminate in a breathless train-top chase ­ around the sitting room!

A Close Shave Trade is booming for Wallace and Gromit's Wash 'N Go window cleaning service and love is in the air as Wallace falls for the owner of the local wool shop, the lovely Wendolene Ramsbottom. But Wallace has a new invention a Knit-O-Matic machine ­ and adventure looms: sheep are being rustled, wool is in short supply and Wendolene¹s malevolent pooch is on the prowl.
