Rollypolly 51 #1 Posted August 10, 2019 I think this is the second series of Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Fishing. I've no interest in fishing but I find the programme really entertaining. It's nice gentle comedy and there is a real rapport between Bob and Paul. I just hope Vic Reeves doesn't make an appearance and spoil it. 😄 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mickey finn 12 #2 Posted August 11, 2019 I love it, gentle funny viewing, also I agree it would be ruined by Vic Reeves or whatever his real name is making an appearance, he is just too absurd for words. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
tinfoilhat 11 #3 Posted August 11, 2019 I watched the first series and very much enjoyed it so I’ll try and catch up on it. The only thing that bugged me was you had the hapless bob fishing at places (and expert unseen tutelage of John Bailey) that most anglers would kill to fish.

It was more natural, but now they know the first series was a success, I feel they are trying too hard to strike up a conversation . Just keep fishing lads, and let the conversation come naturally. You will get people who have never fished interested then. By the way if you’ve ever been fishing you don’t catch them as quickly as that. Looks like theve “ cut” the film between each catch to make the programme more interesting. You can fish all day long without catching a thing but then the programme wouldn’t be as interesting would it ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

It was done not long after Bob Mortimer had, had his heart surgery & was told to take thing a bit slower & try to stay calm. Anything with Bob Mortimer is good. Naturally funny.

Rollypolly 51 #7 Posted August 12, 2019 I'm going to download the first series. I missed it when it was on as I'd just had a heart attack myself and never got round to watching it. Think I might have to take up fishing. It seems to have done Bob and Paul some good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

pattricia 575 #10 Posted August 31, 2019 I don’t know but last night they were in Ireland. They are spoiling the programme by forcing their conversation instead of letting it come naturally while fishing. They did catch a big fish though.!

charliewag 19 #11 Posted November 28, 2020 A few months ago my sister in law sent me a photo of Mortimer and Whitehouse at Staithes near where she lives. I thought there may be a new series in the pipeline but they were filming for the Christmas special in which Chris Rea features.
