Wallace and Grommit Disaster

[Eric Mc]

Aardman Animation have lost most of their historic props in a huge fire at a Bristol warehouse, it's just been anounced.

Definitely not "A Grand Day Out".

I heard about the fire on the radio this morning. Didn't realise Aardman Animations were near Temple Meads. At least no one was hurt.

Nick Parks is being very philosophical about it. He says, in the light of more serious world events, this does not rate that high as a "disaster".

He sounds like a sound bloke.

Spokesman Arthur Sheriff said: "It couldn't have come on a worse day"

Yes it could - before they finished the film.

You'd think that after the Saatchi fire that warehouse storage units, containing one off pieces, would have upped their fire protection a little better.

Is there any suggestion of arson???
If so I have a suspect........
