Hello, sorry it has been so long since my blog. I seem to catch a different illness every week at the moment!!!! Thank you all for "get well" notes on the blog when I had the dreaded pox!!!!

Well I 'm back now and fighting fit. Today is the first day in ages I haven't had a backlog of work so I'd thought I'd up date you all on what's going on here in Bristol.

We've currently completed 19 shots (almost a minute!!!!) from the opening 3 scenes of the movie.

Lots of new sets arrive each week, one is so big it touches the roof of the studio and it's an internal set!!!!!!!!!!!! Your all going to be blown away when you get to see this stuff!

Over half the story boards and voice records are complete and we ramp up to full crew as of the 24th March.

I'll a chat with the powers that be and see if I can up load any pics to wet your appetites!!

All the best

Hello and greetings Josephine,
I was just wondering, how does one learn that Wallace plays the banjo?

Hi guys!

Hello, gromitlove - sorry for the late reply to your good question!

And HELLLOOOO to you, too, Markie Sharkie, old fruit!

Now, and his banjo/guitar... I think it is on the "were " DVD where the Two Almighties - Nick P and Steve Box - are commentating on the scenes that were not used in the final cut of the aforementioned film. There you see the storyboards where is playing the banjo/guitar in the Anti-Pesto van and singing a song.

I hope this helps!

Yours rockin' with the ukelele
