Kevin Shepherd: Caronicle
No matter how rubbish it was, you loved your first car. Even now the memory of that unreliable, uncomfortable, death-trap can still make you smile.
Join Kevin as he attempts to understand how ten inanimate objects and some harmless anthropomorphism have influenced his behaviour, relationships and manhood (not that one).
Caronicle is the story of Kevin’s life told via the medium of the cars that he has owned. You don’t need to have driven a car to enjoy this show you just need to have lived.
