Paul read the first chapter to 23 children aged between six and eight – a tough crowd even

We chatted to Paul about his memories from the day:
“I remember one of the kids asking me a question, ‘How old is Wirral?’ And I thought,
‘Hmmm I don’t know!’
“It was a very difficult question! In the movie we are currently working on we’ve got him
as a mid-teenager. I think back then though, on that particular day, I thought he was
about seven or eight and I think it might have been because the kid asking me was about
that age!
“I have since revised my opinion for the forthcoming ‘High in the Clouds’ animation film.
So Wirral has grown up a bit – now he’s a teenager!”
We’re very excited to meet the teenage Wirral… watch this space!
