An incredible £1.32 million was raised for Bristol Children’s Hospital and the St Michael’s Hospital's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at the Gromit Unleashed 2 auction.

Aerospace Bristol became the world’s most colourful auction room as it was filled with the 66 sculptures of Wallace, Gromit and Feathers McGraw which have lined the streets of Bristol for the past two months.

Auction guests who were keen to make the sculptures their own were welcomed by the much loved British actress, writer, comedian and presenter Dawn French, who introduced renowned auctioneer Richard Madley.

Richard, the former President of Christie’s in New York, had the job of bringing down the hammer in front of a crowd of hundreds.

Below is how much every sculpture sold for.
