Phil Nichol is Bobby Spade, a performance poet troubadour thief. He lives in a netherworld of sadness, doubt and lust. He is lonely. He is horny. He eats a lot of cheese. Married three times and divorced once; everyone and anyone Bobby Spade has ever loved have left him. He is an egocentric misogynist and a suicidal narcissist. Oddly, he can’t keep a girlfriend. Remember him, the haunting deadpan poet – the man that was… Bobby Spade!
