Wallace and Gromit's Grand Appeal auction

Remember the Gromit Unleashed trail that took place over the summer in Bristol?  Last night the 80 Gromits went to auction and a staggering £2.3 million was raised for Wallace and Gromit's Grand Appeal.  The top pooch was Gromit Lightyear, designed by Pixar, who sold for £65k, and Bristol Royal Hospital for Children will benefit from the generosity of those bidding.

"Cracking good job, Gromit!"

Gromit Roger

Another Gromit I met on my travels over the summer was Gromit Roger, who was designed by the animation director of Disney's Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Richard Williams.
