Custard

Custard


Trust me - you will never look at custard the same way again

Percy is a deviant from the norm at the Crumbs Custard factory - he seems to actually like his job. But perhaps a little too much? This animated tale with many Pythonesque touches is as ridiculous as it is charming. It was written, animated and directed with immense ambition by Phil Austin and Derek Hayes whilst at Sheffield Polytechnic.

An animated cartoon about a worker in a custard factory who is considered a pervert by his neighbours and work mates because he loves his job. Their victimization of him eventually goads him into taking revenge and he threatens to flood the city with custard.
