- You may be looking for the in-universe Wallace & Gromit or the in-universe Shaun the Sheep.
Wallace & Gromit was a multimedia franchise created by Nick Park centring around the titular characters, beginning with the film A Grand Day Out in 1989. One film in the series, A Close Shave, introduced the character of Shaun the Sheep, who would go on to star in his own spinoff series, Shaun the Sheep. This itself got a spinoff revolving around Timmy, Timmy Time.
Crossover
The series crosses over with the Doctor Who universe in the Roblox game Wonder Chase [+]Loading...["Wonder Chase (video game)"]. Since the game's inception, an advertisement could be found in Wonder Central for Shaun the Sheep, with an image of the titular character giving two thumbs ups.
Later, on 30 May 2024, a "Shaun the Sheep Update!" was released, adding various characters to the game alongside a new location, Dream Factory, and various stickers based upon Shaun the Sheep.
