Remember Grommit?
Remember Grommit? Some may remember that a couple of years ago Ardman Animations the Bristol based company that started the Wallace & Grommit series of cartoon films, had a brilliant idea to raise money for the Bristol Childrens Hospital fund by sponsoring
about 70 large Grommit figures spread all over Bristol in public areas. They went down a storm, people went mad organising tours to visit all. You could buy an "App". 1st Bus put on Bus tours etc.
Well that crazy idea raided over 4.5 Million Pounds sterling to aid the hospital.
Now they are doing it all again only this time Grommit has morphed into "Shaun the Sheep". Again over 70 of the large figurines have appeared all over the region and peple are going mad to be pictured with them, its certainly pulling in the tourists!
will try to add a picture of one if I can figure it out!
