About this listen

Meet Cecil "Crabby" Crabtree—Britain's Most Enthusiastic (and Misguided) Electric Car Evangelist!

When 69-year-old retired engineer Cecil Crabbtree decides to join the electric vehicle revolution, chaos ensues with spectacular British flair. Armed with outdated overalls, dubious technical theories, and an unshakeable belief in his own genius, Crabby embarks on a mission to educate the masses about the wonders of electric cars—whether they want to be educated or not.

Accompanied by his long-suffering wife Maude (who still doesn't understand where the petrol goes), the delightfully mischievous "Living Dead" (his mother-in-law with a talent for weaponising chocolate peanuts), and his reluctant best friend Reg (a man who prefers the reliability of vintage calculators to Crabby's wild schemes), this unlikely band of electric evangelists leaves a trail of short-circuited dealerships, bewildered salespeople, and power cuts in their wake.

From disastrous test drives and impromptu art installations to hamster-powered theories and televised meltdowns, Crabby's quest to save the planet becomes a hilarious odyssey of good intentions, spectacular failures, and the kind of British eccentricity that turns ordinary electric car shopping into front-page news.

Perfect for fans of The Vicar of Dibley, Only Fools and Horses, and anyone who's ever wondered what would happen if your most enthusiastic relative discovered renewable energy, this laugh-out-loud comedy celebrates the triumph of optimism over common sense—and proves that sometimes the most unlikely heroes create the biggest sparks.

Warning: May cause uncontrollable laughter, sudden urges to check your home's electrical wiring, and an inexplicable fondness for hamster-wheel metaphors.
