Bobby Is Fully Charged

Live show in June for the popular webseries.

27 April, 2018

Wouldn't it be great if there was a show that was a bit like Top Gear, but based around environmentally-friendly electric vehicles? And wouldn't it be even better if that show was available for free, and hosted and created by Red Dwarf star, electric car advocate and all-round good egg Robert Llewellyn?

Well, this isn't just some crazy fevered product of our imagination - but something that actually exists. Fully Charged has been running for over eight years now, fronted by Bobby and co-host Jonny Smith. It's got over 280,000 subscribers on YouTube, a hefty portion of whom also help keep the show going by contributing as monthly Patreon subscribers. And it's not just about cars, either, but has expanded to cover all manner of renewable energies and technologies.

And now, the show is going beyond the screen for the first time, with the inaugural Fully Charged Live! Taking place at the storied Silverstone Circuit on 9th-10th June 2018, the weekend-long extravaganza is an ideal event for anyone interested in low-emission vehicles, or new technologies to heat and power their homes. Or, indeed, for people who just want to go along and see Robert wax lyrical about something he loves almost as much as being encased in a rubber mask on a Friday night.

Tickets for the event cost £29.50, but you can get one for just £17.50 if you're a backer of the show's Patreon. For that, you'll get a range of panels and showcases including, but not limited to:

• An exhibition of renewable energy technologies
• A selection of interesting technologies as seen on Fully Charged
• Every electric vehicle in the UK
• The UK debut of the Tesla Tiny House
• 20 entertaining live sessions
• Ask the Experts area
• Prizes and promotions
• Much more to be announced in the run-up to the show

All in all, it sounds like a cracking weekend. And if you're just interested in watching from a distance, then don't forget to check out the Fully Charged channel for gems such as this:
