In the latest episode of Lightbox Skwigly talks to Aardman co-founder Peter Lord, creator of the iconic character Morph.

Since creating Morph in 1977 the character has had multiple outings, including as an animated companion to TV presenter Tony Hart in Take Hart and Hartbeat plus the TV shows SMart and The Morph Files. Following a successful crowdfunding campaign, Morph was revived for a brand new web series that ran throughout 2014 and will make his return to UK TV screens this month on CBBC.
