Wallace & Gromit - The Wrong Trousers (VHS, 1995)

I love Wallace and Gromit. I have a one year old now and I am collecting such items for her. It's an awesome tape.

You have to watch all of the earlier Wallace and Gromit shows to understand the later ones as the later ones always reference the earlier. The Wrong Trousers episode features the crafty thief Penguin who attempts to undermine Wallace and Gromit's loyalty to one another. Wallace attempts to short cut his dog walking duties (not that Gromit needs it) by inventing a walking pair of trousers which the new roommate uses to walk into a jewelry store and walk off with a valuable gem. The claymation is beautifully, painstakingly done and the episode is well written. See every episode so you are inside every joke.
