5.0 out of 5 stars Great selection of shows 22 Sep 2006
By Madge
Format:DVD
This DVD is fantastic. It's a collection of the other side of Aardman that people aren't normally as familiar with. All the animation looks great as you might expect. But this one is nothing like Wallace and Gromit or Chicken Run - these shows are rude, dark, weird and sometimes really funny. It features gems such as Big Jeff, Rex The Runt and Angry Kid - my favourite. This DVD gives you a really good selction of these different characters and different animations. Its great.

3.0 out of 5 stars the rspca should do something about this dvd 17 May 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Wallace and gromit get special edition dvds and blu-rays, but the brilliant rex the runt only gets a couple of episodes on this poor excuse for a dvd. Its animal cruelty thats what it is. i want rex the runt complete and on blu-ray now aardman, so sort it out.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Town Called Panic 15 July 2007
By Peter
Format:DVD
All 5 stars to A Town Called Panic. Shame there is only a proportion of the 20 episodes made. I hear though a dedicated DVD will be out soon. Its the funniest animation I've seen for years

5.0 out of 5 stars reply to Philip Vandenbossche
"A Town Called Panic" included in this compilation dvd is the English-language version of "Panique Au Village" which was re-voiced by Aardman with Pic Pic Andre's approval.

4.0 out of 5 stars Aardman made in Belgium
