Pilot Episode: Chazza Bobby Dazzler

Trev would give anything for a quiet life at home with his favourite jigsaw, but when the phone rings, disaster hits. It’s just 1 week until James’ wedding and Val has nothing to wear! With funds running low, can Trev convince Val a charity shop rummage could be the answer to her Wedding ‘Bobby dazzler Queen’ outfit dreams? Featuring chats with local charity shop enthusiasts and repair cafes in Amber Valley Derbyshire, this podcast weaves together community chats and comedy in this Community Documentary Comedy Drama. 

Celebrating all things preloved, this episode shines a light on some of the wonderful ways people on our doorsteps are reducing waste and costs of living by reusing, repairing and creative upcycling in their communities.
