    If only you knew. That pig was enormously expensive - there are in fact two pigs used in the series (one is a stunt double obviously) and they have slightly different eyes.

    You won't believe how much the production company paid to get them made !!!!!

    Can you not auction one of the pigs on eBay or do they still need it? I guess the Pig would fetch a few quid :)
