// News

Aardman’s Shaun the Sheep is to star in his first ever half hour Christmas special in 2015. Shaun the Sheep – The Farmers Llamas will air at Christmas the same year that the Shaun the Sheep movie is released marking one heck of a year for the mutton marvel. The short, commissioned by BBC One, BBC Comedy Commissioning and WDR Germany will premier in the UK before being released Aardman’s global partner channels.

Here is the synopsis for the film, just over a year to wait folks!
