THE World of James Herriot, in Thirsk, is to show the Wallace and Gromit film The Wrong Trousers as part of the Museum at Night scheme.

The visitor attraction in Kirkgate is to screen Nick Park's award-winning animation on Saturday, May 24, as it joins 69 other museums and galleries taking part in the scheme.

It forms part of the Museums and Galleries Month and is supported by the creators of Wallace and Gromit, Aardman Animations.

Museums and Galleries Month runs through May with a series of events and activities.

Alison Scurrah, centre manager, said: "This is the first time we have taken part in this event. It is a one-off chance to see Wallace and Gromit at their funniest.

"We hope lots of people will come along, watch the film and make a Shaun the Sheep puppet - it promises to be a fun night."

The film shows are at 5.30pm and 6.30pm with booking essential. Tickets cost 2.50 and children must be accompanied by an adult. Book at the centre on 01845-524234.
