Welcome back to Tea Break Toons!
This week's Toon is:
Wallace & Gromit's Cracking Contraptions: The Tellyscope (2002)
Run time: 2 minutes
Recommended tea time treat: Mini Eggs Nests
It is Easter Monday after all and what's Easter without Mini Eggs, although what is happening to the size of these, they seem to be getting smaller every year!
Anyhoo these cakes are still delicious and a firm favourite of mine at Easter. I meant to take a photo of the cake as well but my family ate them before I got the chance, sorry...
Cake rating: 6/10
Wallace & Gromit's Cracking Contraptions is a series of shorts that were originally broadcast throughout the Christmas period in 2002 on BBC1. It was a great wee series containing ten episodes each lasting between one and three minutes. It featured a number of Wallace's infamous inventions and the disasters that surrounded them.
In The Tellyscope, Wallace invents a rather elaborate contraption that effectively reduces the need for a remote control and replaces it with a much more complicated version. Even if it is a bit of a dud, at least you now know what to do next time you lose the remote down the back of the sofa...
Aardman have very generously put all ten episodes up on their Youtube channel and created a playlist for you to watch. So if you have a bit longer than a tea break, enjoy! Just click this link and scroll down the page until you get to the Cracking Contraptions playlist.
Until the next time!
