'The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists' a delight

Bristol-based Aardman Animations, the Oscar-winning creators of 'Wallace and Gromit' and 'Chicken Run', discover their sea legs in this salty escapade based on the book by Gideon Defoe.

Five years in the making, 'The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists' showcases the extraordinary craftsmanship and dedication of director Peter Lord and his team, who have brought this colourful world vividly to life through the painstakingly slow process of stop-motion animation.
