Wallace and Gromit are returning to T.V late 2008 (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7024834.stm)

so I decided to do a poll to bicker over which half hour short was the best

my vote goes for a grand day out "everybody knows the moon's made of cheese." :D

But how could anything compete with a penguin using a rubber glove to disguise himself as a chicken...

Why no "curse of the wererabbit"? But I would still vote for a close shave, simply for the line "We'll call him Shaun"

I think the revelation that all robots secretly dream of skiing speaks wonders

Why no "curse of the wererabbit"? But I would still vote for a close shave, simply for the line "We'll call him Shaun"

there really wouldn't be any point though :(

You can't top the penguin.

I can never quite choose between "The Wrong Trousers" and "A Close Shave." They're both too perfectly wonderful.

Gotta love the Penguin.

Although A Grand Day Out is, well, grand, I’m plumping for The Wrong Trousers.

The model train track scene kills me every time.

Does anyone else feel the need for some cheese and crackers?

Indeed, just reading this thread made me crave some Wensleydale. :)

Even though Feathers McGraw has to qualify as one of the all time top baddies, you just can't beat A Grand Day Out. The later ones went too far from their roots with too much emphasis on the Heath Robinson inventions for my taste.

The Wrong Trousers is absolutely hilarious. A Grand Day Out is a bit too rough and ready for me although I love the mice in the basement with their sunglasses. A Close Shave had lost something on TWT and I haven't even seen curse of the were-rabbit. Feathers McGraw is an absolute villain :D
