Following the first teaser earlier in the year, here’s a longer and more complete look at footage from** Shaun The Sheep**’s movie, following the adventurous ovine and his buddies as they hit the nearby metropolis.
There’s a definite flavour of Wallace and Gromit at the start here, especially given that regular Shaun character Blitzer reminds us strongly of Aardman’s most famous canine.
In this expanded adventure, Shaun and his pals decide to take the day off. That would be fine, except they don’t bother to tell the Farmer where they’re going, causing no end of trouble and leading to the poor, put-upon bloke being carted off to the big city. Shaun and co. must travel to the confusing, chaotic city and help him out.
We’re promised the usual sheep-powered chaos plus a few new characters including animal warden Trumper and Slip, an orphan dog who helps out our heroes. You’ll want to bleat it (sorry, couldn’t resist) to cinemas when Shaun The Sheep arrives on February 6.
