This week, Post of the Week is something a little different - a superb stop-motion animation sent in by Will, age 10, from Bedfordshire!

It shows a modelling clay character building a Blue Peter ship, who then takes it to the water to set sail.

By our count, the animation is made up of 367 individual pictures, which must have taken a lot of patience! It even features sound effects, and the original BP theme tune. We're very impressed Will! A Blue badge well earned.

The BP ship and the modelling clay character are super makes in their own right!

Two stills from the animation, one showing the sea waves Will has drawn, and another the city skyscrapers background Will has drawn.

Will also did a great job decorating his set with hand-drawn backgrounds. Fantastic work!
