Wallace & Gromit Double Bill: A Close Shave + A Matter of Loaf and Death U
This December, Showroom are delighted to be screening all four classic Wallace & Gromit animations in beautiful 4K restorations ahead of the premiere of brand-new feature Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl on BBC One this Christmas Day!
The second double-bill showcases the Claymation latest adventures that have demonstrated their timeless staying power as icons of British animation across the decades since their first film in 1989 as we look forward to their first film in 16 years!
A Close Shave
Love blossoms in the course of Wallace and Gromit’s latest business, the Wash ’n’ Go Window cleaning Service, when they are called out to clean the windows of the attractive Wendolene Ramsbottom. Little do they know that a lamb, Shaun is hiding in their house after escaping from the clutches of evil sheep rustlers.
A Matter of Loaf and Death
Wallace and Gromit have opened a new bakery business – Top Bun – but a deadly murderer is targeting all the bakers in town. Wallace couldn’t care – he’s found true love in the shape of Piella Bakewell, former star of the Bake-O-Lite bread commercials. Can Gromit discover the identity of the Cereal Killer before Wallace becomes the next victim?
Tickets to each double bill are £5 for all ages.
