Mr Park, who won Oscars for animations such as The Wrong Trousers and A Close Shave, said: “Even though it’s precious stuff and nostalgic – and it’s dreadful news for the company, in the light of other tragedies it’s not a big deal.”

Fire crews were called to the building near the city’s Temple Meads station at about 0600 BST on Monday. They were unable to stop all three floors inside collapsing.
