Scary or upsetting scenes 

Certain scenes or characters may be upsetting for very young children. When the gnomes turn evil, their eyes glow and try to harm other characters. 

An old enemy of Wallace and Gromit's attempts to take a valuable item from them and almost kills one of them as a result. The character at risk dangles from the side of a bridge and falls, but they are saved. This may upset young viewers, however the scene moves on quickly and the characters appear safe and happy. 

Violence

Some scenes have mild, slapstick violence, such as when Wallace’s inventions go wrong, and when a character comes face to face with a lion in a zoo and it tries to attack them. No blood or injuries are shown.
