Brunel
 

The BBC have contacted the current National Third Section Champion, Brunel Brass from Swindon to appear on the BBC 'Culture Show' for the 20th anniversary celebrations of the inimitable Wallace and Gromit.

Famous duo

Brunel Brass will travel to Aardman Studios in Bristol the home of the famous duo for filming later this month.

Brunel celebrate their third year of existence in December and are delighted to have been asked by the BBC, especially as there are a host of young (and old) fans of the plasticine celebrities in the band.

It promises to be a great experience for the many youngsters and older fans in the bandMD, John Winterflood

Great experience

MD, John Winterflood told 4BR: "It promises to be a great experience for the many youngsters and older fans in the band."

January 2010 will also bring new challenges for Brunel, as they have been promoted for the second consecutive year and will appear in the Second Section at the Regional Championships in Torquay.
