The plastic dog
The now famous plastic dog

The Plastic Dog

Listen to the item

Jo Gould had a vision that her 16 year old son was going to have a proper consciousness-raising holiday in the South of France, with his aunt and his cousins, exploring the food and culture of Languedoc and discovering the hair-raising and singularly bloody history of the Cathars who lived in amazing castles built on top of jolly high mountains.

James and his cousins on the other hand had different ideas and chose to spend their holiday photographing a life-size plastic boxer dog in the local  garage!

This has led to them building a website in its honour. Tom Robinson spoke to Jo and James Gould to find out more about plasticdog.tk
