Wallace & Gromit: A Matter of Loaf and Death is a 2008 British stop motion animated short film produced by Aardman Animations and created by Nick Park. It is the fifth Wallace & Gromit film, and the first short film since A Close Shave (1995).[2]
A Matter of Loaf and Death is a murder mystery, including a serial killer murdering bakers. Wallace and Gromit operate a bakery business, during which Gromit tries to solve the case before Wallace himself ends up as the killer's latest and final victim.[3] It was the last Wallace & Gromit film before the retirement of Wallace's voice actor Peter Sallis in 2010 preceding his death in 2017. The short was also one of the most watched television specials in the United Kingdom in 2008 and received critical acclaim. It received an Academy Award nomination for Best Animated Short Film at the 82nd Academy Awards, and won a BAFTA and an Annie Award for Best Short Animation and Best Animated Short Subject respectively in 2009.
