Business tycoon Bernard Grubb has commissioned the famous duo to spruce up Cardiff in time for his festival. There's absolutely heaps to do and all manner of contraptions to discover - including the colossal cleaning robot, 'Big LAD'.
But help is at hand from BERYL, a fussy yet friendly Artificial Intelligence - perhaps she can help find Gromit, who appears to have gone walkies...
