  • Summary

  • A hilarious take on modern dating through the eyes of Northern ex-pat Grace and laidback Londoner Elliot as they attempt to navigate life while being haunted through the years by a blind date that goes disastrously wrong.

    Grace Williams and Elliot Dowd meet for a blind date arranged by Connector Magazine’s ‘Match-Ups’ feature, a popular free mag flung in to the hands of commuters at tube stations. They both arrive with good intentions but the date quickly turns sour due to a series of hilarious mishaps...the date is deemed a disaster, and neither Grace not Elliot want to see each other ever again. The Universe however has other ideas...the feature is a hit for the magazine and it goes viral turning them both in to overnight celebrities. As the years pass and Elliot and Grace’s world’s continue to collide they can’t deny their enduring, if infuriating, connection.

    Written by accomplished audio writer Eddie Robson, Car Crash is produced for Audible by Bafflegab, an award winning leader in audio production.

Started good, went off!

This was so funny, short, sharp, witty, two contrasting characters meeting for the worst blind date ever. Then it deteriorated into two guys arguing about football, which went on too long, it lost it's zest so I stopped listening.

Absolute gem!

Really enjoyed the whole thing. There's comedy, romance, and it's thought provoking. It's very well executed and feels like watching a movie, except the scenes are in your head. If you're are a light hearted listen, I'd recommend this without a heartbeat.

Enjoyable and easy listen

I wasn't really sure what to expect but got into the storyline quite quickly. It was really easy to listen to and listened to most of it in one day as the episodes are short. Entertaining storyline.

Enjoyable comedy-drama

I really enjoyed listening to this comedy-drama about dating and different perspectives - it kept me company while working! All the acting was really good, especially the two main characters, and the script/ producing/ sound effects also great.
