The South Bank Show is a TV arts programme broadcast in the UK. Their most recent programme featured a profile (and interview) with animator Nick Park. You can download the interview from the link below. It's about 20 minutes long (and 55MB in size).

Nick Park comes across as such a nice, friendly down-to-earth person. It's great listening to him. This isn't the whole programme though - there were also interviews with many of his colleagues and collaborators including Peter Sallis (voice of Wallace), Aardman co-founders, Peter Lord and David Sproxton, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and others too. These aren't included in the video above unfortunately.
No mention was made in the programme of the recent split between Dreamworks and Aardman, so I can only presume the programme was filmed before news of the split was issued.
