Awesome animation duo Wallace and Gromit are back for a brand new adventure.

The as-of-yet-untitled film features Wallace and his inventions, and this time he's developed a "smart gnome" that Gromit is suspicious of.

Fans of the famous films face a bit of wait though, as the new movie is scheduled to appear on the 鶹Լ over the Christmas period in 2024.

"It's incredibly exciting to be taking British audiences on a cracking new adventure with Wallace & Gromit!" Said 鶹Լ Chief Content Officer, Charlotte Moore.

The 鶹Լ made the announcement after the success of the Shaun the Sheep film; The Flight Before Christmas which was shown on 鶹Լ One on Christmas Eve.

Shaun the Sheep was originally a Wallace and Gromit character from their 1995 film A Close Shave.

"Wallace and Gromit are so loved by everyone at Aardman - they're like family to us, and we couldn't be more excited to be creating a brand-new film for them to star in," Sean Clarke, Managing Director of Aardman, said.

"When Nick came up with the concept for a 'smart gnome', we all agreed that Wallace would find the idea irresistible - despite warnings from Gromit, who is wise beyond his (dog) years. We're sure audiences will find the story irresistible too."
