Publisher's Synopsis
Wallace and Gromit's washing machine is all washed up. With only coppers in the piggy bank, buying a replacement is out of the question. So when man and dog see an invitation in the Inventor's Chronicle to attend An Invention Convention - with a £100 first prize for the best new invention - they have no choice but to enter . . . the kitchen, put the kettle on and have some more cheese.
So begins ANORAKNOPHOBIA, in which Wallace and Gromit arrive at the seaside get-together only to find their fellow inventors in a mortal tangle - thanks to the mysterious Herr Baron Doktor Count Napoleon von Strudel, head of the Acme Corporation, and his spider-training wife, Queenie.
