They're one of Britain's best-loved double acts - the cheese-loving inventor and his genius pet dog.
It was back in 1989 that the plasticine heroes were first unveiled by creator Nick Park in a short film titled A Grand Day Out at an animation festival at the Arnolfini Gallery in Bristol.
Over time the cat became a dog and the man lost the moustache that Nick had originally drawn him with. But the idea of the ingenious inventor and his cautious canine was there in his student sketchbook. He reveals on his website that one of the most common questions he gets asked is where he got the inspiration for Wallace and Gromit from. In Wallace’s case, this came from his own family.
It's said that Gromit’s intellectual, cultured character is perhaps a little inspired by the character Snowy from Tintin - Hergé's classic cartoon creation was a favourite of Nick’s when he was growing up.Following its debut at the Arnolfini Gallery in November 1989, A Grand Day Out was transmitted on Channel 4 on Christmas Eve, 1990 - six years after production began.
Despite a few hiccups with their homemade rocket, the duo make a successful lunar landing, arriving just in time for lunch.
