Watch the scenes as Wallace & Gromit fans queue for final days of Nick Park exhibit
These were the scenes as hundreds of Wallace & Gromit fans queued for a final chance to see Nick Park’s exhibition, which finished at the Harris Museum this weekend.
Video shows the enormous queues forming outside the Harris Museum, as Wallace & Gromit fans came to Preston for the final weekend of Nick Park’s exhibition.
People travelled from Nottingham, Manchester and even Poland for a chance to see original sets and models from the animated stop-motion franchise by Aardman Animations.
The recent boom in visitor numbers led the museum to stop anyone joining the lines from 13:00 GMT each day until the exhibition closed today.
Morgan Clossick, who works at the museum, said the unprecedented demand had "just carried on each day”.
In the video above, one visitor explains how his companion had ‘travelled over from Poland’ just for the occasion.
Another person, from St Annes, said it felt like a ‘real treasure’ to be able to visit the exhibition.
A visitor from Stockport spoke to us after viewing ‘A Case At The Museum’.
“It was nice to see all the different sets and also get the background of Nick Park, as I knew very little about him.
It was definitely worth the wait. It was really busy in the museum, but everyone was really enjoying it so it was good.”
