Well cor blimey and “butter me crumpets,” Wallace & Gromit are back.

Britain’s most adorable exports since the Minis — the Cooper and the Skirt — are back for another twee stop-motion animated farce that reminds us of how much we’ve missed them.

“Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl” sees our keep-calm-and-keep-inventing duo still snug and comfy in their Wallace & Gromit “Escape to the Country” small town living. But doggoned if the Foe that Made Them Famous — the disguised pengiun known as Feathers McGraw — isn’t ready to escape prison and finish the heist that began back in “The Wrong Trousers,” nearly 30 years ago.

And this time, he’ll pin his “blue diamond” theft on hapless Wallace and his always-underestimated “best pal,” Gromit.

Wallace’s latest invention is a help-around-the-home digital garden gnome, a “smart gnome” who can “tidy up” your garden, clean your house, make your tea and do your knitting, all chores those pottering Brits are famous for loving to do the old fashioned way.

“Norbot” (voiced by Reese Shearsmith) is a persistent, quick-learning bot who just might be Wallace’s first lucrative invention ever. He’ll program the robot to make more Norbots and hire them out as handy-gnomes.

“The more Norbots, the merrier,” the broke Wallace crows. “What could possibly go wrong?”

The dog knows. The dog always knows.

Feathers McGraw, doing hard time (for an Adelie penguin) in a local zoo, silently and expressionlessly cooks up a scheme to hijack the gnomes, bust out of “prison” and pin all sorts of crimes on Wallace, and by extension Gromit.

The late voice actor Peter Sallis died in 2017, and there really is no replacement for that daft, befuddled and ever-cheerful “blokety bloke” North Country accent he summoned for the screwball inventor who always has his biscuits saved by his clever boy dog. So longtime Wallace & Gromit filmmaker Nick Park got actor Ben Whitehead to come in and do his best Peter Sallis. It works.

But as amusing as Wallace’s sputtered reactions to their predicaments always are, as cute as the work song the singing gnomes compose might be — “We break our little backs, and never stop to have a brew ’cause we’ve got battery packs!” — it’s the parade of sight gags that sell these clay-animated comic jewels.

Gnome puns abound. Gromit’s mastered using his retractable leash as a grappling hook. Gadgets like Wallace’s ever-evolving “wake me up/bathe me/dress me/jelly me toast” conveyor belt/amusement park ride tickle.

To break Feathers out of the zoo, the gnomes DIY an escape submarine out of the sheds and contents of sheds from assorted English gardens. Naturally, they don’t forget to include a pipe organ. Every Brit villain should know how to play Bach’s Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor, even the penguins.

And what penguin escape would be complete without a nun’s habit as a disguise?

Chief Inspector MacIntosh (Peter Kay) now has a new trainee, Police Constable Mukhergee (Lauren Patel), one way these films have “evolved” over the decades. Aardman Animation has taken DEI lessons to heart, as this film looks like the clay-animated diverse Britain of today.

Granted, both MacIntosh and Mukherjee leap to the wrong conclusions about who the “bad’un” is here. MacIntosh is long enough in the tooth to still refer to the police as “Old Bill.” He’s distracted by dreams of a puttering retirement on his canal boat (“narrowboat”), which he’s named “Dun Nickin’.”

There are more grins than laughs in this outing, but Aardman addicts (myself included) will get a kick out of “The Night of the Hunter” and other film references, at the sight gags that land hard and the ones that just tickle.

It’s comforting to think there’ll always be an England, and even more comforting to hope that there’ll always be a Wallace and his Gromit “over there” to amuse us.
