Video: Wallace & Gromit visit Loch Ness in tourism ad

Plasticine duo Wallace and Gromit have been to the moon, fought off evil penguins and solved one small town’s rabbit problem, but now they’ve done the impossible - they’ve had their picture taken alongside the Loch Ness monster.

The image of the animated man-and-dog duo at Loch Ness was created as part of a £4 million campaign to boost British tourism.

‘The Great Adventure’ was created by Aardman, the Oscar-winning team behind all the duo’s escapades, and features a whole host of UK landmarks.

The VisitEngland campaign, which is backed by VisitScotland, is accompanied by a new short film featuring the duo.

In the video, inventor Wallace’s holiday plans run into trouble when his ‘Holiday Hot Shots’ machine runs into trouble.
