Quotes15

  • Wallace: Have you been peckish during the night? Only, someone's been at me cheese.
  • Wallace: Won't you come in? We were just about to have some cheese.
  • Wendolene: Oh no, not cheese. Sorry. Brings me out in a rash. Can't stand the stuff.
  • Wallace: [gulp] Not even Wensleydale?
  • [to Gromit, after he escapes from jail with the help of Wallace and the sheep]
  • Wallace: I suppose you'll have to skip the country, now. A fugitive, ay? You'll be hunted down like... well, a dog.
  • Wallace: [seeing Preston operate a replica of Wallace's Wash-O-Matic] Where'd you get that from? That's MY machine! I've got patent pending on that!
  • Wendolene Ramsbottom: Yer dog's waiting.
  • Wallace: Aye, I'd better see to him. The bounce has gone from his bungee.
  • Wendolene Ramsbottom: He's malfunctioning.
  • Wallace: Mal what?
  • Wendolene Ramsbottom: Malfunctioning. Preston is a cyberdog.
  • Wallace: Cyber what?
  • Wendolene Ramsbottom: A robot. Daddy created him for good, but he's turned out evil.
  • [last lines]
  • Wallace: What's wrong with Wensleydale? Talking of which, all the more for us. And not a sheep to worry us.
  • [Lifts the cover of the cheese tray to discover Shaun eating the cheese]
  • Wallace: Get off me cheese! Get off! Get o... Gromit? Gromit! Go for 'im! Oh!
  • [the sheep have climbed on top of Wallace in order to help Gromit escape from prison]
  • Wallace: [as they pull Gromit to safety] Oh, brilliant teamwork, lads!
  • Wallace: [he slips on a bar of soap randomly lying about on the pavement and they all come crashing down] Oh!
  • Wallace: [putting Shaun in his Knit-o-Matic] There. Nothing to fret over. Just a quick shampoo. We've tested this on Gromit. Haven't we, lad?
  • [Gromit nods wearily]
  • Wallace: We'll call him Shaun, eh!
  • Wallace: [repeated three times as he keeps track of Gromit's trial] Oh, Gromit...
  • Wendolene Ramsbottom: I'm sorry about this.
  • Wallace: For what?
  • Wendolene Ramsbottom: Nothing. Just stay away from me, from my shop, and my silly, silly windows.
  • Wallace: Is this place yours?
  • Wendolene Ramsbottom: Mm-hmm. My father left it to me. Along with his debts, and a few other things.
  • [first lines]
  • Wallace: [in bed] Porridge today, Gromit! Tuesday!
  • Wallace: Do something, Gromit!
