Wallace & Gromit's Cracking Contraptions
Wallace invents an array of contraptions to try and make life easier but it's always Gromit who picks up the pieces. A series of 10 short films featuring some of their more outrageous inventions including the "Soccamatic," which is supposed to help Gromit's goalkeeping skill
When Wallace takes Gromit to the park for a game of football he plays to win. Unfortunately he is constantly frustrated by Gromit's goalkeeping prowess. Wallace is forced to reveal his "Soccamatic", a circa 1938 penalty taking machine he recently purchased mail order from Preston North End FC. It seems that Wallace has finally got the upper hand as balls whistle past the hapless dog. But Gromit has an ace up his sleeve.

Breakfast is Wallace and Gromit's favourite meal. But why bother cooking yourself when you have an "Autochef", the combined cooker and waiter on wheels? Wallace is anxious to prove that his troublesome invention is perfectly safe around the home. Gromit isn't so sure about the cheeky robot and he may have good reason to be wary.

It's nearly Christmas and Wallace is getting into the festive spirit. He's decided to make some "tasteful" Christmas cards with the help of Gromit, lots of glitter and his brand new card-making machine. But Wallace is so carried away by the resulting masterpiece that he fails to notice the extraordinary scene unfolding in the garden.
