Nick Newman

    Nick Newmans levenslange passie voor de natuur, aanvankelijk aangescherpt tijdens zijn carrière in de renpaardenwereld in het VK, nam een ​​onverwachte wending toen hij zich kwalificeerde als veldgids in Zuid-Afrika. Daar vond hij diepe voldoening in het werk in de Afrikaanse bush. Zijn leven werd onherroepelijk veranderd door de zeldzame kans om zwarte neushoorns te monitoren tijdens een kritiek hoogtepunt in de stroperijcrisis. Newman voelt nu een diepe plicht om zijn ervaringen van de frontlinie te delen, waarmee hij natuurbeschermers steunt en wereldwijd bewustzijn creëert voor het lot van deze bedreigde dieren.

      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.
