Great bit of animation don't you think?

When money troubles prompt Wallace to take in a lodger, life at West Wallaby Street gets complicated for poor Gromit.

Was always going to be a classic.

Didn't the lodger get a job with a well known internet based bike accessory company and criticise the management or something?

There were certainly some sheep sheared as I recall.

Sheared or simply fleeced?

Wrong Trouser Bridge was the setting if I'm not mistaken.

I'm a bit late clearly but is it at all possible that a well known and loved manufacturer of insectivore based clothing are not making them in the place implied by their name?

I think Nick Park has a good sense of humour and wouldn't do something like that...

For balance, and possibly since it all seems to have gone a bit MBR here today; I believe the plot could be read in different ways and all will be revealed in a forthcoming stw approved sub plot in due course.

Set there perhaps, but I heard rumour it wasn't actually filmed there. This has (potentially) caused me great upset and personal trauma.

I believe the animation is now being done off region and not at the Aardman studios.
There may be questions asked about publicity photos taken on the original sets.

surprised at how quick everyone turns against one of their own, or perhaps everyone just likes a good gossip / p take.

I think mainly enjoyment of a p take, particularly when a brand makes such an earnest play of it's marketing, as it can come across a bit smug. I'm sure some hater's will be hating for whatever reasons; see brewdog threads and folks wanting it to be known they never liked the stuff in the first place. But I think for most folk it's just a bit of a giggle.

Personally I have found the STW reaction more amusing, I wouldn't have even commented on the original thread as I don't really care about the brand or its buyers. But when people start censoring, for whatever reason, it gets a bit more funny.
