Nick Newman

    Nick Newman is a lifelong nature lover from the UK. Po absolvování školicího programu v roce 2014 odcestoval do Jihoafrické republiky, kde se kvalifikoval jako terénní průvodce a s potěšením trávil čas v africké buši. Jeho život se však nepředstavitelně změnil, když dostal jedinečnou příležitost monitorovat nosorožce černé. Toto se shodovalo s obdobím, kdy se současná krize pytláctví nosorožců v Jihoafrické republice blížila k bodu zvratu. Nick, který se ocitl v takto privilegované pozici pomáhat chránit kriticky ohrožený druh, dnes cítí svou povinnost a zodpovědnost pomáhat dalším ochranářům zvyšovat povědomí o těžké situaci nosorožců sdílením svých příběhů z první linie.

      It's the night before Gromit's birthday, and Wallace is in the shed planning a surprise: a party with lots of balloons and home-brewed cheese. It's a surprise, alright, when Wallace goes overboard with the helium, and the shed disappears into orbit where zero gravity makes the Home Brew Cheese Kit go into hyperdrive. Soon, Mr. Patel's greenhouse suffers a close encounter of the direct-hit kind and, with West Wallaby Street facing its very own "Edamgeddon," Wallace assembles a crack team to journey into the unknown. Thus, man and dog blast off into space, and with First Knitting Officer Wendolene and Bill "Cheesy" Cheeseman also aboard, Crackers in Space may be Wallace & Gromit's cheesiest mission yet.

      Set in a secluded walled garden, two elderly sisters live by their late mother's strict almanac, believing that isolation is their only path to survival. Their self-sufficient existence is disrupted by the arrival of a young boy, who challenges their perceptions of safety and truth. As one sister clings to their mother's teachings, the other yearns for a different life, leading to a tension between tradition and the allure of the unknown. The boy's true nature adds an unsettling layer to their already fragile world.
