More Wallace and Gromit For TV

"Wallace and Gromit" are to return in a half-hour television adventure - their first since 1995's "A Close Shave" reports The BBC.

Aardman Animations has announced that the cheese-loving inventor and his loyal dog will star in "Trouble at' Mill" which will screen on BBC One in late 2008.

Trouble at' Mill is a murder mystery that sees Wallace and Gromit running a bakery business - with their house converted into a granary with ovens and robotic kneading arms. It also introduces a new love interest for Wallace - bread enthusiast Piella Bakewell.

The 7-8 month shoot begins in January at Aardman studios in Bristol. The new film will reunite Nick Park with writer Bob Baker who co-wrote both "The Wrong Trousers" and "A Close Shave."
