About this listen

Harry has no illusions about himself. He looks in the mirror and sees a fat, ugly bloke who’s gone stale at the age of 35. He wasn’t always like this - in his early 20s, he was into clubbing, dating, just like any other gay guy in London - but since he moved in to look after his mum, and her subsequent death, he’s let himself go. Besides, there’s no one to make an effort for, so why bother, right?

Then a construction site worker starts whistling at him every morning on his way to the office.... Tony thinks Harry is one of the sexiest bears he’s ever seen. But when he finally gets to talk to Harry, Tony soon realizes that getting to know him is going to take some effort. Not that the prospect puts him off - Tony loves a challenge, and he’s not about to give up on Harry.

Two ordinary men. Real life. Real-life situations. And love....

Good-natured and sweet but lacked depth

Harry has a hard time believing that Tony, the builder on a construction site he walks past on his way to work each day, is wolf-whistling at him - he’s let himself go over the past few years. Tony sees Harry as a sexy bear - if only he can convince Harry to see himself that way. Like NR Walker’s The Weight Of It All, this is a journey of self-acceptance for an average looking guy. It’s sweet and good-natured and highlights the exacting standards we place on ourselves. Everything about this story is inoffensive: it’s not fluffy, but it is light. It only just touches on the deep stuff, there’s no angst, and it misses out on exploring issues which would have made for a richer story. I suppose one of the messages is that you don’t need to be good looking to have good sex, but I would have gladly replaced some of the sex scenes with more angst or depth. Seb Yarrick’s genial audio narration matches the lightness of tone and he provides some good UK working class and migrant accents.
