I Love You, You Big Dummy' is a love story set in a record store.
Dave is in love with vinyl as much as he loves his wife, Christine. From behind the till of his shop, Spindle Wear, he tells us the story of how he met her; how she actually made records and got in the charts, and how he almost lost her to a drummer called Jeremy Clarkson. No, not that one.
Produced by The Cotswold Players for the One Hundred Lights project, I Love You, You Big Dummy was written and performed by Ben Wardle, whose biography of Talk Talk frontman Mark Hollis, A Perfect Silence, is out in spring 2022.
