I love Aardman films but there's a BIG question mark when it comes to their supposed brilliance at development. 'Pirates', 'Arthur Christmas', 'Flushed Away' anyone ? - and those were the ones that actually made it through the gate.

The cult of Aardman is part of the problem in UK feature animation and it would be nice to see some of that Lottery cash go towards other suitably experienced and ambitious producers with perhaps a more exciting and internationalist development approach. Think Laika, Studio Ghibli, GKids, Illumination, etc. More support to encourage live action autuers into animation would also be welcome. Look what Garth Jennings (who of course is British!) has just done with "Sing".
