The short premiered on 4 November 1989 at the Bristol Animation Festival at the Arnolfini gallery in Bristol.〔 It was broadcast on BBC One on 25 December 1989, and a year later, on 24 December 1990, it aired on Channel 4.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wallaceandgromit.com/about/ )〕 ''A Grand Day Out'' is followed by 1993's ''The Wrong Trousers'', 1995's ''A Close Shave'', 2005's ''The Curse of the Were-Rabbit'' and 2008's ''A Matter of Loaf and Death''. ==Plot== As Wallace and Gromit relax at home, wondering where to go on vacation during the upcoming bank holiday, Wallace decides to fix a snack of tea and crackers with cheese. Finding no cheese in the kitchen, he decides that the pair should go to a place known for its cheese. A glance out the window at the night sky gives them the idea to travel to the moon, since, according to Wallace, "everybody knows the moon's made of cheese." They build a rocket in the basement and pack for the trip, but after lighting the fuse, Wallace realizes that he has forgotten to bring any crackers. Hurrying to the kitchen, he grabs several boxes and returns to the rocket just in time for liftoff. When they arrive on the moon, they discover that the entire landscape is in fact made of cheese. They set up a picnic and sample some, but are unable to match its taste to any cheese they know (Wallace thinks it tastes like Wensleydale, Stilton and Camembert). Looking for a different spot, they encounter "The Cooker," a wheeled, mechanised, coin-operated device that resembles an oven and storage cabinet. Wallace inserts a 10-pence coin, but nothing happens immediately; only after he and Gromit have left does the Cooker spring to life, popping jointed arms out of its side panels. When it finds the picnic site, it becomes agitated and gathers up the dirty dishes; finding a skiing magazine nearby, it develops a desire to travel to Earth and experience the sport. The Cooker glues a discarded spike of cheese back onto the spot from which Wallace cut it, issues a parking ticket for the rocket, and becomes annoyed by an oil leak from the craft. The Cooker spots Wallace and Gromit in the distance, Wallace having cut another spike of cheese, and sneaks up with a truncheon in hand. Before it can hit Wallace over the head, though, the money Wallace inserted runs out and it freezes in place. Wallace takes the truncheon as a souvenir, inserting another 10 pence in exchange, and he and Gromit prepare to leave. Returning to life, the Cooker realizes that the rocket can take it to Earth and chases after them. Wallace panics, thinking that the Cooker is angry over the cheese he is taking with him, and he and Gromit prepare for an emergency liftoff. Unable to climb the rocket's ladder, the Cooker cuts its way into the fuselage with a can opener, but accidentally spills and ignites the fuel. The resulting explosion blows it backward and allows Wallace and Gromit to lift off. The Cooker is left on the moon, with nothing but two strips of metal torn from the fuselage; initially crushed by its failure to reach Earth, it fashions the strips into a pair of skis and is soon happily skiing across the lunar landscape. It waves goodbye to Wallace and Gromit as they return home. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Grand Day Out」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
