2013 Specials, Episode 1 - Dave Podmore's Ashes Shame
It's an Ashes summer, and England's sleaziest ex-cricketer Dave Podmore has lost his home, his dog and his job as global ambassador for cheapfags.com. Has Pod finally met his match?
Further details
Radio One County's Andy Hamer finds Pod at the lowest of unfair ebbs, suspended from his radio programme for disloyal tweets to a rival broadcaster and stripped of his role as global ambassador for cheapfags.com.
When the nation bids farewell to a controversial yet iconic figure from the East Midlands - his beloved dog Saxon - Pod blows his questionably-gotten fortune on the funeral.
With his prospects in the gutter, and bailiffs turning up faster than grey streaks in his mullet, has Pod finally met his match? Or can a precocious young Tyke help him save the day?
