This film marks the 35th year of their adventures, beginning with the short film “Wallace & Gromit: A Grand Day Out” in 1989, all of them rendered in lovingly detailed stop-motion animation. “Vengeance Most Fowl” is only the second feature-length film,

Part of the charm of the “Wallace & Gromit” films is their unabashed Britishness, which the filmmakers have had to fight (politely) to preserve as their audience has become more and more global. While Netflix was largely supportive, they did have a bit of a back and forth over the turn of phrase “Flippin’ Nora!” (They ultimately kept it.)

Nick Park, co-director and creator of 'Wallace and Gromit,' and Merlin Crossingham, co-director and Aardman's Creative Director, enthuse about the iconic duo's return.

Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl is scheduled to run until 7.30pm, around 1 hour 20 minutes. It is slightly shorter than the previous film - Curse of the Were-Rabbit - but longer than the short movies. If you can’t watch it live, the film will be available to stream on BBC iPlayer.

It’s a Christmas present wrapped in claymation, a stocking stuffer wrapped with laughs, a wonderful treat for the holidays — it’s the new Wallace & Gromit
